Coach Talk

Sherlock Mahomes
Whoa, Sherlock Mahomes, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this shellacking. Not only did you win by 45.74 points, you also jumped up a staggering three spots in the league standings. Nice work!
Judge Jeudy
Judge Jeudy will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 26 targets in Week 11. With only 13 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
