Coach Talk

Bad Boy
Kudos on assembling a starting crew that won by almost 49 points this past week. We took care of business and did what had to be done.
Press Coverage
Our quarterback tossed an interception and not a single touchdown? It might be good to go back and review the game tape: Was Drew Lock actually that sloppy from the pocket, or was the Chiefs secondary just that good against the pass?
