Coach Talk

Tds and Beer
Identifying mismatches is a huge component to winning in football. Thanks to a awesome showing by Patrick Mahomes, we quadrupled Kentucky Zombie at the quarterback position this past week (44.92 points to 10.02). Mahomes went 33-for-46 for 478 yards, six TDs, and three INTs in a 54-51 loss to the Rams.
Kentucky Zombie
"Not seeing enough opportunities" won't cut it as an excuse this week for Kentucky Zombie. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) combined to see a grand total of 33 targets in Week 11. With only 18 total receptions, that group may have some chemistry issues.
