  1. It’s a tough hill to climb to get into the playoffs. The Bears could almost sleepwalk into an AFC wildcard spot, but a 2 1/2 game deficit to Minny with 4 to play is almost too much.
  2. Some really good games this year. I'm rooting for Ohio State over Wisconsin (puke) because it increases Penn State's odds of getting a Rose Bowl invite
  3. There's a sizable contingent of PSU fans who want to see James Franklin go away, and its the same stupid mindset as Michigan fans. Franklin was been pulling top 15 recruiting classes every year and winning 9 or 10 games a season. Who do people think is coming to Penn State who would be better than Franklin? So stupid
  4. Alabama now out. Best chance for a Big XII or Pac 12 team to get in now is for LSU to beat Georgia in the SEC title game. If Georgia wins, it'll be two SEC teams (again)
  5. Don't feel bad, no one is beating Ohio State this year. Easily the best team they've had in the 12 years I've lived here.
  6. 3rd string QB tearing us up, cool cool cool
  7. Its amazing how quickly opposing team's DC's can adjust to this offense
  8. So much for Penn State staying undefeated. They just choked on the chicken bone in the final minute
  9. I'm in the same boat. I usually don't have much to root for with my two teams (DePaul [alma mater] and Penn State [hometown team]). Both are undefeated early, which is fun while it lasts. At least Penn State has made some deep runs (and won) in the NIT, while DePaul has just been poop
  10. NFL owners and their insistence on paying young QBs huge extensions before they have to continues to confound me. See also: Carson Wentz
  11. He doesn't read any posts This is either the absolute height of irony, or the ultimate case of takes one to know one Why not both?
  12. If Harbaugh had even a single win against Ohio State, the heat would be way less than it is now.
  13. I mean, there's like 3 active coaches who have won a championship this century, not named Belichick. 1 championship season is an accomplishment in the Patriots dynasty era. I'd be pretty happy with a coach that won a Super Bowl in one of his first 3 years as coach. As would we all. I'm not taking that away from Pederson. I'm just waiting to see if he gets the Eagles back on track, or if it's going to be 9-7 seasons from here on out
  14. Yes, the one with 2 1/2 completely mediocre seasons and one championship season
  15. I'll give you Rivera, though the Panthers have been all over the place, record-wise (3 winning seasons and 6 losing seasons) Pederson did win a Super Bowl, and has gone 14-13 since. I'd say the jury is still out
  16. I said it last week (or maybe earlier in this thread), but the Andy Reid coaching tree has, by and large, been comprised of a bunch of failures. Or, perhaps, are littered with good coordinators, most of whom have no business being head coaches Good: John Harbaugh Jury is still out: Doug Pederson Sean MacDermott MEH: Ron Rivera Matt Nagy OOF: Brad Childress Steve Spagnuolo Leslie Frazier Pat Shurmur Todd Bowles
  17. This team cannot stop stepping on their own dicks.
  18. Throws looking better this drive, but he is getting his WR's killed
  19. Oh wow, Mitch missed the wide open receiver for the first down in favor of the impossible pass further down field? Crazy
  20. I’m not sure moving the fences back will help. Players are already hitting home runs into the second deck. Valid point, and my post was mostly reactionary to the insane Zach Levine highlights from last year's Bulls game
  21. I'm not sure moving the line back will help. Players are already shooting from 2 feet behind the line
  22. Nope I was happy to see Penn State fight back, but they are now something like 1-10 on the road against ranked teams under Franklin. Their pass defense is horrible, and it showed, giving up a ton of first downs on 3rd and longs.
  23. Did you read my post? He doesn't read any posts
  24. Ohio State is going to win this game by 40. They are so far ahead of everyone else its unreal
