Offensively challenged Desert Eagles, Shalabajzeri play to 62-62 tie

Tying for the 12th-highest point total in the league for the week, Desert Eagles and Shalabajzeri were lucky to be facing each other rather than one of the league's higher-scoring teams, as they made like the Packers and Vikings and played to a 62-62 tie. Both Desert Eagles (6-6-1) and Shalabajzeri (1-11-1) will miss the postseason.

Coach Talk

Desert Eagles
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a solid display from Carson Wentz, we thoroughly outplayed Shalabajzeri at the quarterback position this past week (24 points to 9). Wentz went 27-for-39 for 306 yards, two TDs, and an INT in a 28-13 win over the Redskins.
Shalabajzeri
Lots of cake, no icing: The six offensive position starters on Shalabajzeri (three RBs, two WRs, one TE) combined to record a healthy 394 total yards. Not one of those players was able to score a touchdown in Week 13.
