Coach Talk

Mumm-Ra
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's not really any way sugarcoat it, Mumm-Ra; our QB was clearly outplayed this past week. Patrick Mahomes went 30-of-44 for 443 yards and four touchdowns for Marcus's Swell Team, and all Derek Carr could muster was a 23-for-38 day, with 198 yards and one passing TD (plus two ugly interceptions). We need to put some extra effort into scouting those upcoming defenses!
Marcus's Swell Team
Look, Marcus's Swell Team, we've been in this industry long enough to realize that sometimes an extra point will just magically appear out of the blue... and then in some cases, like this week, it won't! In the grand scheme of things, the most important thing here is that you tried.
