Coach Talk

AView2Nkeal
A big key to success in football is creating mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by royally dominating Mahomies at the wide receiver position (64.9 points to 8.1).
Mahomies
It's entirely possible that Mahomies might be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. With just three targets as a group in Week 1, their four wide receivers apparently contributed primarily by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
