Coach Talk

Riding in my Lambeau
Hey, this sport is all about creating mismatches, right? Thanks to a thrilling display by Patrick Mahomes, we tripled Jones-ingForAKuppOfTeaHiggins at the quarterback position this past week (29.6 points to 9.46). Mahomes went 31-for-47 for 410 yards, three TDs, and an INT in a six-point win over the Chargers.
Jones-ingForAKuppOfTeaHiggins
Unless Jones-ingForAKuppOfTeaHiggins wants to go full diva-mode, then "not seeing many looks" doesn't fly as an excuse this week. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) collectively received a grand total of 33 targets in Week 15. With only 20 total catches, that group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
