Coach Talk

Luke Skywokka
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a solid performance from Patrick Mahomes, we doubled up BIG Marc at the quarterback position this past week (41 points to 20.3). Mahomes went 23-for-38 for 295 yards and four TDs in a 40-33 triumph over the Raiders.
BIG Marc
Posting only three targets this past week, it seems like the starting RBs for BIG Marc should remind their QBs to check down more often (and dial up a screen play or two).
