Coach Talk

Mahomes muscles
Listen, Mahomes muscles, we do admire the confidence. It takes a certain kind of guts to play a starter with zero points (Melvin Gordon III), while still getting the win. Try those shenanigans next week and we'll be toast.
Easton's Team
Welp, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) collectively got a healthy 26 targets in Week 15. With only 16 total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
