    For the sake of argument. Let's say 14 is their draft position. Would trading down make sense here? I haven't looked at anything related to draft projections Especially in light of all the cap space I think you just take the pick wherever it lies. They've got the money to ensure the team has adequate depth next year, take your swing at an impact player. I think the only way I trade back is if somehow they have a top 5 pick but also at the same time we feel really great about Fields, which feels like a very unlikely combo. Think that would almost require a good offense but the D getting absolutely shredded to lose the games... not out of the realm of possibility, but not likely either. The coaching seems to be good enough to avoid a total tank

    Micah Parsons is gonna have a field day

    His interception was a really good play too. Yes, Zappe held it way too long before making the throw, but he was in pretty good coverage and made a good play on the ball.

    That block wasn't even that bad.
  5. Rex Buckingham
    That's absolutely ridiculous that Pennel is ejected for that play
  6. Rex Buckingham
    Just absolutely electric at times

    I hate to say it, but Aikman says stuff that makes me think he has CTE WHO CARES ABOUT BAILEY Didn't he retire because of frequent concussions? And that was in the 90s, so you can probably at least double the number of diagnosed concussions to determine how many he actually had

    That's a play not many QBs have the athleticism to make
  9. Rex Buckingham
    Well, this game has turned quickly

    Mustipher was back at C on that TD drive

    Realistic-ish scenario: Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama all win out with Georgia beating Tennessee and Alabama beating Georgia in the SEC title game. I'd think Alabama would get in since they'd be the SEC champs and then the committee probably goes Georgia over Tennessee due to H2H if they take two SEC teams but boy that seems harsh on Tennessee. I suppose it would depend on how the games play out. Like if Georgia beats Tennessee convincingly than you take Georgia for sure. But if Georgia beats Tennessee like Tennessee beat Alabama today, then it's tougher. Plus, you'll need to factor in a likely 11-1 Illinois team that would have victories over Michigan and Ohio State. 12-1

    It may only last a week, especially if DeVito can't go... but it's beautiful

    just saw the worst roughing the passer call in ATL-TB...
  14. Rex Buckingham
    stupid Hawkeye
  15. Rex Buckingham
    He's a garbage player who is playing because we made no effort to get good WRs for our young QB
  16. Rex Buckingham
    You know... you obviously want to win the games, but all things considered, you saw some signs from Fields that he can continue improving and make plays. If you can rack up some losses, you get more ammo to get actual good players to surround him.

    woulda been nice to have an XP rather than that trash 2 pt try earlier...
  18. Rex Buckingham
    liked that throw against the blitz
  19. Rex Buckingham
    gonna come back... but man is Fields electric in the open field
  20. Rex Buckingham
    what a terrible flag
  21. Rex Buckingham
    looked like Smith hit Mooney early there... yep, on replay he's definitely all over Mooney's arm before the pass gets there
  22. Rex Buckingham
    Showing signs of life...
  23. Rex Buckingham
    It would be awfully hard to make a better throw there...
  24. Rex Buckingham
    Judging by the first half, I think you'll break even.

    Olave or Wilson? Any of them. Victor in 2019 is the only 6'3"+ target of any significance he had at WR at Ohio State. No, his targets at OSU weren't particularly big, but they were far more talented than your average college DB, where the talent differences are much more pronounced. He could throw deep ball after deep ball last year from clean pockets and Wilson, Olave, and Smith-Njigba (who I would lvoe the Bears to pick next year) would either dust their DB and be wide open, or were good enough athletes to GUAGI
