Coach Talk

Cosby’s sleepers
Hey, the key to football is creating mismatches, right? Fueled by a stellar display from Patrick Mahomes, we doubled up Beats By Ray at the quarterback position this past week (34.48 points to 17.2). Mahomes went 29-for-43 for 292 yards and four TDs (plus no INTs) in a one-point win over the Raiders.

Listen, we've been in this business long enough to realize that occasionally, free points just seem to miraculously appear out of nowhere. And then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, okay; asking for an extra 25 points might be a bit overzealous. Keep your head up, Beats By Ray!
