Coach Talk

Dude Love 3.6
The key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by a thrilling showing from Patrick Mahomes, we quadrupled The Pollard Express at the quarterback position this past week (30.48 points to 6.86). Mahomes went 29-for-43 for 292 yards and four TDs in a 30-29 win over the Raiders.
The Pollard Express
Wait, our starting QB tossed one interception and literally zero touchdowns? We might need to go back and review the game tape: Was Jared Goff really that off-rhythm with his receivers, or were the Patriots just that stout defending the pass? What do you think, The Pollard Express, do we continue to start him with confidence?
