Coach Talk

Triple G's Lozenges
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to a awesome display from Patrick Mahomes, we thoroughly outscored Shake'n Baker at the quarterback position this past week (38 points to 8). Mahomes went 23-for-38 for 295 yards and four TDs in a 40-33 win over the Raiders.
Shake'n Baker
Unless Shake'n Baker wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many opportunities" isn't really a reasonable excuse this week. As a group, our trio of pass-catchers (two WR and one TE) combined to get a healthy 16 targets in Week 13. With just nine total receptions, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
