They were led by Patrick Mahomes, who passed for 443 yards and 4 touchdowns for 31.62 points, and Nick Chubb, who racked up 98 yards from scrimmage and ran for a touchdown (20.8 points). Julio Jones (28.6 points) and Austin Ekeler (23.3) carried the flag for jbml in the loss. drizz (1-1) will look to earn another W against Mack North, while jbml (0-2) will try to get their first win against MangoKid.

Coach Talk

drizz
Yo, drizz, you put the rest of the league on notice with this performance. Not only did you win by almost 29 points, you also climbed a whopping three spots in the league standings!
jbml
Unless jbml wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough chances" isn't really a valid excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) were targeted a grand total of 26 times in Week 2. Chemistry appears to be the primary problem, as that group reeled in only 16 receptions.
