Coach Talk

Rollin’withMahomes
This sport is all about creating mismatches. Thanks to a solid outing by Patrick Mahomes, we doubled up Big Ballers at the quarterback position this past week (36.75 points to 17.55). Mahomes went 20-for-34 for 329 yards and three TDs in a three-point triumph over the Chargers.
Big Ballers
Unless Big Ballers wants to go full diva-mode, then "not getting many looks" isn't really an excuse this week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) combined to see a grand total of 25 targets in Week 11. Timing and chemistry seem to be issues as that group managed only 14 receptions.
