Coach Talk

Cojones Grande
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's not really any other way for us to spin this, Cojones Grande: our quarterback was utterly outmatched this past week. Patrick Mahomes went 24-of-34 for 243 yards and two touchdowns for Mr. Dolan, and all Andrew Luck could manage through the air was 192 passing yards. Let's work overtime to get on the same page with our receivers this week!
Mr. Dolan
Fortunately, Mr. Dolan, Week 15's problem isn't exactly rocket science. Going with Aldrick Rosas in what wound up being a tight fantasy matchup... let's do a little analysis before signing off on our Week 16 lineup.
