Holy shit this finish is insane

Ohio U Game

Perfect beginning (no pre-game stupidity like happened at other non AFC North stadiums)

Pefect ending.

The middle sucked. Hope it's not long-term and he doesn't miss too much time.

Gritty win. Great comeback Bengals. Fingers crossed that Joe is okay.

I noticed Joe seemed to hold onto the ball too long in the 2nd half last week, as the Browns were mauling the OLine. One play at their own 5 it looked like he had JChase wide open for a screen to the left, but just took the sack. Then today they start playing like the Bengals again with Browning (not nearly as wealthy as Joe) and scored 3 td's.

I don't know how to process the possibility that a backup might be playing better than the $50M/year starting QB. But again, I didn't see any of it. (Browning did throw 3 int's - oops.)

I’m not sure who I’d compare Jackson to. Maybe Hyde but less of a bruiser and more athletic. Looks to be a solid receiver for a freshman.

Peoples reminds me of a limited Henderson. Not the same physical tools but shows impressive burst and change of direction. Needs time to develop vision.

Hyde was the closest I could think of, but another player he starts to remind of as well: Maurice Clarett.

Peoples is reminding me Of Lydell Ross. He does have burst and change of direction, but no vision and direct enough in how he runs. Peoples, like Ross has the uncanny ability to get the ball and run right into the defender and get a nice 2yd gain consistently

They *probably* switched to the Bengals game to show that last drive, once the Ravens went up 41-10, but I didn't turn the tv on to check. damn

This Dall/NYG game

2-0…..somehow.

They'll still squeeze into the playoffs. Schedule is a joke now outside of USC.

Notre Dame is 0-2; one more loss and they are probably eliminated from the CFPs. No 3 loss team has ever gotten into the CFPs. Here's where being an independent gives them a big advantage. The highest ranked team they have remaining on their schedule is #25 USC at home. They could very easily run the table and still get in with 2 losses. Being an independent they don't play in a conference championship game; which would be presumably against a tougher opponent and possibility resulting in another loss.

Correct.... they suck at identifying QB talent and you play the Bills twice a year which only magnifies the suck.

It’s more than that. But that’s okay.

So LSU's offense scored 13 points while also being the recipients of 5 ints? Woah.

I mean judging by how other QBs have played around the country and the OSU Defense I'd say even a performance like this from him could win a title lolz

Not yet. I would agree with that if he had eaten that sack. He needs to have it pounded into his head that he has the best defense. If you have to take a sack, take a sack. I was fine with him missing a few reads and letting the ball go late a few times, but you can NOT turn the ball over like that.

The only way teams can score, is lucky hailmary type passes, or if the offense turns the ball over. I will be shocked if the OSU offense has to score more than 28 to win a game this year.

Virginia Tech Fires Head Coach Brent Pry After 0-3 Start to 2025 Season​

The Hokies lost to Old Dominion at home on Saturday.

The Virginia Tech Hokies have fired coach Brent Pry following an 0-3 start to the 2025 season, according to a statement released by the program on Sunday. Offensive coordinator Philip Montgomery will take over as interim head coach.

Just sayin': It's "black sunday" for college football coaches; both UCLA and Va Tech fired their coach today after gong 0-3 so far in 2025..
