Coach Talk

Assimilate THIS
Sure, we ultimately earned the win, but there's really no other way for us to spin this, Assimilate THIS. Our starting QB was severely outmatched by the opposition. Josh Allen went 32-of-40 for 375 yards and four touchdowns for Hakuna Matata, and all Patrick Mahomes could produce was a 25-for-40 day, with 318 yards and one passing TD. Let's bounce back with a big statement in Week 14!
Hakuna Matata
Talk about old-school ground n' pound: As a group, the starting backfield for Hakuna Matata collectively registered just one measly target this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to dial up a couple of screen plays in Week 14!
