Coach Talk

Hi_Hater
Earning the win is most important, Hi_Hater, but we've also identified one spot where we should get better as a team. Our QB was utterly outplayed this past week. Patrick Mahomes went 27-of-47 for 302 yards and two touchdowns for Joel's Father, and all Carson Wentz could produce was a 26-for-43 day for 242 passing yards and two ugly interceptions. We need to spend some extra time this week working with our receivers!
Joel's Father
Joel's Father will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) combined to receive a whopping 24 targets in Week 2. Chemistry seems to be the primary issue, as that group reeled in just 13 receptions.
