Trailing 69.34-13.80 heading into Monday night, Mcdulldfx came storming back behind Patrick Mahomes, who passed for 478 yards and 6 touchdowns and ran for 28 yards for 38.92 points, and Travis Kelce, who caught 10 passes for 127 yards and a touchdown (18.7 points). Julio Jones (6 Rec, 118 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Marlon Mack (61 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD) carried the flag for Panda in the loss. Mcdulldfx (10-1) will look to keep it rolling against Roylinc, while Panda (5-6) will face veryslowhand in an effort to right the ship.

Coach Talk

Mcdulldfx
Spotting mismatches is a huge key to success in football. Thanks to a solid performance by Patrick Mahomes, we absolutely dominated Panda at the quarterback position this past week (38.92 points to 3.84). Mahomes went 33-for-46 for 478 yards, six TDs, and three INTs in a 54-51 loss to the Rams.
Panda
With one catch on just two measly targets this past week, the starting running backs for Panda should remind their QBs to get them more involved (and dial up a screen play or two).
