Coach Talk

Chiefs 205
Yo, Chiefs 205, do you consult for SpaceX or something? Not only did you win by 782 points, you also skyrocketed four whole spots to third place in the league standings!
TheNigerianNightmare
Yo, TheNigerianNightmare, what did your receiving crew do to annoy their quarterbacks this week? Seeing just 16 total targets in Week 2, our four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) clearly got on the bad side of their respective QBs.
