Coach Talk

Mcdulldfx
Hey, exploiting mismatches is the key to football, right? Thanks to a solid performance from Patrick Mahomes, we doubled up veryslowhand at the quarterback position this past week (33 points to 15.94). Mahomes went 23-for-38 for 295 yards and four TDs (plus no INTs) in a 40-33 win over the Raiders.

Well, we certainly can't gripe about a lack of opportunities this week, can we? As a group, our pass-catching corps (three WR, one TE) collectively saw a respectable 27 targets in Week 13. Chemistry could be an issue, as that group notched only 14 catches.
