Coach Talk

Wish A MF Would
Whoa, that Raiders secondary didn't know what hit 'em! 20 completions on 24 attempts: good enough for a completion percentage of 83 percent for Patrick Mahomes. We know the GM of Wish A MF Would is grateful for that attention to detail.
King Cobras
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) collectively got a grand total of 22 targets in Week 14. Chemistry could be a problem, as that group recorded only 13 catches.
