I agree that he hasn’t been the same MHJ we’re used to seeing play. But I also think he needs out of Arizona. One thing I hate about the top picks in the draft is that teams will take explosive players but not build around them. The Cards have an elite WR but bottom feeder QBs throwing to him with an average run game. Nothing compliments a setup to showcase MHJ in that scenario.

It’s like CJ and Fields going to teams with dogshit O-lines that can’t consistently block.

So which is it? Player hid hands from handshake, or Lane didn't even try to shake their hands?

From the tape it looks like Ole Miss wanted nothing to do with shaking Lane’s hand. Not sure if he reached out to Chambliss.

But also Lane did played the victim role while showing defeat and embarrassment after creating all this drama.

Deaths Of Notable Sports Figures (R.I.P.)

Ernie Accorsi, longtime NFL executive and Giants GM, dies at 84​

Giants mourn loss of former GM and Ring of Honor inductee Ernie Accorsi


Longtime NFL executive Ernie Accorsi, the architect of the New York Giants team that pulled off one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history, has died. He was 84.

The Giants announced Sunday that Accorsi died Saturday, surrounded by his family.

"Ernie helped shape the course of New York Giants history through his vision, leadership and unwavering belief in building a championship organization," Giants owner John Mara said in a statement. "Beyond his accomplishments as a football executive, he was a trusted advisor and dear friend. His legacy will forever be part of the Giants, and he will be greatly missed."

Said NFL commissioner Roger Goodell in a statement: "Ernie Accorsi was one of the most respected football minds in NFL history and a dear friend whose wisdom and perspective I valued tremendously. Throughout his remarkable career, he shaped championship-caliber clubs and earned the admiration of everyone who worked with him."

Accorsi spent parts of four decades in top front-office roles around the NFL and served as general manager for three teams, most recently the Giants from 1998 to 2006.

He served as general manager of the Cleveland Browns from 1985 to 1992 before joining the Giants as their assistant GM in 1994, working under Hall of Fame executive George Young. He replaced Young as the general manager four years later and built the core of a team that reached three Super Bowls and won two Lombardi Trophies.

Under Accorsi, the Giants hired two-time Super Bowl-winning coach Tom Coughlin in 2004 and pulled off the draft-day trade for star quarterback Eli Manning later that year.

"Ernie will always be remembered, and I say this out of great respect -- he's the guy that made the trade for Eli Manning," Coughlin said in a statement released by the Giants. "That will go down in Giants history as one of the great moves of all time. Was it risky? Sure it was risky. Ernie did it. Shut the door, went in, he did it on his own. It was his move."

SNAP COUNTS:

Snap Counts: Brock Boyd Leads Wide Receivers in Playing Time, But Khary Wilder Plays Only 11 Snaps As Ohio State Plays Deep Into Bench vs. Kent State​


164063_h.jpg


Ohio State took advantage of another opportunity to play deep into its bench in its final non-conference game of the season against Kent State.

37 Buckeyes saw playing time on offense while another 37 played on defense as Ohio State routed the Golden Flashes, 59-3. The Buckeyes played down to at least the third row of the depth chart at every offensive and defensive position group, testing their depth in what will likely be one of their last opportunities this season to give their backups extended playing time.

Buckeyes who saw their roles increase against Kent State from previous weeks included freshman wideout Brock Boyd, who played the most snaps among all receivers against the Golden Flashes. On the offensive line, Gabe VanSickle made his first start of the season at right guard and played all 48 snaps with the first-team offense, while Jake Cook played the biggest role of his Buckeye career to date as he played the sixth offensive line spot in the Bison package.

Defensive players who saw expanded roles against Kent State included defensive ends Epi Sitanilei and Qua Russaw, defensive tackle Jason Moore and linebackers Riley Pettijohn and TJ Alford, who led or tied for the lead in snaps at their respective position groups. One player who surprisingly didn’t see a big increase in snaps, however, was highly touted freshman pass-rusher Khary Wilder, who continued to see little playing time outside of the third-down Rushmen package even with starting defensive end Zion Grady sidelined for the game due to injury.

Our full report on how many snaps each Buckeye played on offense or defense against Kent State is below. Snap counts are courtesy of Pro Football Focus’ premium statistics, though a couple of snap counts along the offensive line were corrected to account for discrepancies we noticed while rewatching the game. (Note: Special teams snap counts are not included as they had not been published by PFF as of Sunday night.)

Exactly. There's nothing wrong with being a finesse team until you try to play like 1990s Wisconsin. Get over being called soft and beat the shit out of somebody 70-27 with finesse.

Maybe it’s just me but it seems the most physical teams Day has had were the ones right after Urban where Urbs stamp was still on the team. Critics of Ohio State that have labeled Days teams as finesse and soft are kind of right. Hate to admit it but it’s hard to argue against that. Does anyone feel good about the chances of converting a 3rd and 2 under Day?

Juggalos troll Miami U after win:

the Bearcats posted a video to troll the RedHawks afterward, referencing the long stretches of the game Miami led with a clip from a viral commercial in which a fishing line is used to pull a dollar bill away, with the angler saying, "Ooh, you almost had it. You gotta be quicker than that."

Edited on top of the dollar bill in Cincinnati's version of the video? The Victory Bell trophy, awarded to the winner of Bearcats-RedHawks rivalry games.

Dillon Gabriel already had a phantom back injury to go on IR, so they are just waiting for something to justify putting Watson on there. Maybe a hang nail, maybe he slips and falls in the shower, who knows.

I think that's what they are hoping for. I'm sure the moron fan base will boo him as soon as he steps on the field next week, even after winning a game and outplaying the guy he replaced. Noted; neither of them were the answer at QB, and Sanders and Manning aren't either. Side note, there's no way Dawand is worse than the stiff they have at RT.

I think I'm at under 50% that Monkin is back as HC next year. They'll probably fire him and hire Schwartz.

Ohio State Opens As a 27.5-Point Favorite Over Illinois In the Battle for the Illibuck​

Ohio State will open up Big Ten play as a four-touchdown favorite over head coach Bret Bielema’s Fighting Illini.

DraftKings Sportsbook has the Buckeyes favored by 27.5 points for their Sept. 26 matchup against Illinois in Columbus.
Ohio State moved to 3-0 against the spread this season with its 59-3 win over Kent State. Meanwhile, Illinois has failed to cover the spread in all three games this season.

The game’s over/under opens at 53.5 points. Illinois has hit the over in all three of its games this season, while Ohio State has done so twice. The Buckeyes and Longhorns fell short of the total in their Week 2 matchup in Austin.

Ohio State has won its last 10 games against Illinois, including Ryan Day’s only matchup with the Illini as a head coach last season. The Buckeyes covered the spread in that game, while the total went under in Day and Bielema’s first head-to-head matchup.
