Coach Talk

Trigger
Spotting mismatches is a big key to success in football. Thanks to a thrilling showing from Patrick Mahomes, we doubled up LLsay at the quarterback position this past week (33 points to 15.32). Mahomes went 23-for-38 for 295 yards and four TDs in a 40-33 win over the Raiders.
LLsay
With four catches on just five targets this past week, the starting running backs for LLsay should remind their quarterbacks to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
