Coach Talk

The Apes
Putting together a lineup that netted nearly 152 points this past week... we did what was needed and took care of business. We should keep this momentum going as we move on to our Week 14 matchup.
# 4 Broke My ♥
Your starting QB tossed two interceptions and just one touchdown? I guess we're presented with a fork in the road here: Did Derek Carr seem rattled back there in the pocket, or was the Chiefs secondary just that great defending the pass? What do you think? Do we continue to roll with him as the starting QB of # 4 Broke My ♥?
