Coach Talk

Rollin’withMahomes
You know, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Fueled by a stellar outing by Patrick Mahomes, we doubled up YOUalreadyKNOWsuckas at the quarterback position this past week (41.4 points to 18.7). Mahomes went 29-for-43 for 292 yards, four TDs, and no INTs in a one-point victory over the Raiders.
YOUalreadyKNOWsuckas
Hey, YOUalreadyKNOWsuckas, what'd your receiving crew do to get written out of their teams' game plans this week? Seeing just seven total targets this past week, our three starting pass-catchers (two WR, one TE) clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
