Coach Talk

House of Mahomes
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. We not only doubled up Charm City Law Firm at RB (44.1 points to 18.2), we also utterly dominated them at WR (55.8 to 21.9).
Charm City Law Firm
"Not seeing many looks" is definitely not a reasonable excuse this week for Charm City Law Firm. As a group, our pass-catching corps (four WR, one TE) combined to get a grand total of 29 targets in Week 9. Chemistry and timing seem to be issues as that group pulled down just 14 balls.
