Coach Talk

Chiefs Fan
Identifying mismatches is a big key to success in football. We really took that to heart this week by thoroughly outplaying Who Dat at the wide receiver position (61.2 points to 22.4).
Who Dat
Welp, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) combined to get a healthy 31 targets in Week 6. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group reeled in only 16 catches.
