Coach Talk

BUCCANEERS
Hey, the key to football is spotting the mismatches. Fueled by a thrilling showing by Patrick Mahomes, we doubled up Rob Zombie ... at the quarterback position this past week (27.92 points to 11.7). Mahomes went 25-for-34 for 423 yards, three TDs, and an INT in a 44-23 triumph over the 49ers.

You can take solace in the fact that your generosity did not go unnoticed, Rob Zombie .... It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like BUCCANEERS succeed this week.
