Coach Talk

My Team
You know, the key to football is taking advantage of the mismatches. Thanks to a thrilling display from Jalen Hurts, we doubled up AndrewP's Amazing Team at the quarterback position this past week (27.6 points to 13.58). Hurts went 22-for-35 for 340 yards and three TDs in a 24-8 win over the Commanders.
AndrewP's Amazing Team
Unless AndrewP's Amazing Team wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" isn't really an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a whopping 36 targets in Week 3. Those players might need to hit the practice field, considering they managed only 19 receptions.
