Coach Talk

Jimmy's Team
Getting the win is most important, Jimmy's Team, but we've also identified one spot where we can get better as a team. Our starting quarterback was significantly outplayed by the opposition. Patrick Mahomes went 24-of-38 for 314 yards and three touchdowns for Parker Isaacson, and all Tom Brady could manage through the air was 133 yards and one passing TD (plus an ugly interception). Let's put some more effort into studying those playbooks!
Parker Isaacson
Unless Parker Isaacson wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" is definitely not an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 15 times in Week 3. With just nine total receptions, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
