Coach Talk

Sanchez Rules
Hey, the key to football is finding and exploiting the mismatches, right? Fueled by a stellar display from Patrick Mahomes, we doubled up Bubba Gump Shrimp Co at the quarterback position this past week (168.77 points to 71.52). Mahomes went 30-for-44 for 443 yards and four TDs in a 28-10 triumph over the Raiders.
Bubba Gump Shrimp Co
Bubba Gump Shrimp Co will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a whopping 30 targets in Week 2. Those players should spend extra practice time working with their QBs, considering they recorded just 17 receptions.
