Coach Talk

Rollin With MaHomies
Sure, we ultimately earned the win, but we can't deny it, Rollin With MaHomies. Our starting quarterback was significantly outclassed by the opposition. Deshaun Watson went 28-of-33 for 426 yards and five touchdowns for Quon 2 3...HUT HUT, and all Patrick Mahomes could put up was a 22-for-39 outing, with 321 yards and one passing TD. We need to put some extra effort into scouting those upcoming defenses!
Quon 2 3...HUT HUT
Unless Quon 2 3...HUT HUT wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting many looks" isn't really a viable excuse this week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a hearty 19 times in Week 5. Timing and chemistry appear to be issues as that group pulled down just 11 receptions.
