Cleveland Guardians (2026 Season Thread)

I think mostly the divisional thing. I don’t have much love for the White Sox, but I hate the Cubs more if we’re talking Chicago. Yankees, Red Sox and Tigers are higher up my hate list as far as the American League goes.

We did have a pretty epic showdown with that asshole Jack Parkman though. Maybe ChiSox fans are still hurt about that.

Lame move (compared to the original) but great reference.

I hate the Cubs more, too, for... was that 2016? Whatever year that was. Eff them.
Red Sox, Tigers - I'm with you on them. I used to like the Tigers a little. But eff that whole state.
Yankees - I grew up when the Clippers were the Yankees AAA team, so I always liked the Yankees. Less so now that they're no longer partners, but the Yankees are still above the Red Sox, in my mind.

Cleveland Browns (Factory of Sadness)

Not sure how shocked fans can be.

- Jets have a better running game
- Better at stopping the run with light box counts
- Home game
- Unfavorable weather conditions

The Jets play a physical brand of football and have been competitive in losses despite injuries. They're not a *terrible* football team by any stretch. Not saying they're that good either, but far from nuclear rebuild.

2026 tOSU Defense Discussion

That's one of the strengths of Indiana. They are a well disciplined team that rarely defeats themselves. We need to get discipline back on both sides of the ball. Indy maximizes on other teams mistakes. We can't afford to help them out on Saturday.
They’re exactly who I’m talking about. They just don’t beat themselves and they make the routine plays.

2026 tOSU Defense Discussion

BULLETS LOOK PRIMED FOR BLOOMINGTON​

Make no mistake, Maryland isn't an offensive juggernaut but I feel like Matt Patricia's unit - minus the penalties - played very well yesterday and seems primed for next weekend's challenge of beating Curt Cignetti's squad in Bloomington.

The defensive line's apparently found something, keyed by the emergence of Eddrick Houston and Qua Russaw, that's made the linebackers look a lot better than they did earlier in the season now that they have some room to read/react, and the secondary has been the defense's strength all season.

Yesterday, Ohio State held the Terps to 146 total yards and limited the nation's 28th-ranked passing offense (277 ypg) to 64 yards and just 12 completions.

Maryland couldn't run it either, averaging 2.9 yards per carry and the Buckeyes held the Terps to 3-for-12 on third down conversion tries. The Bullets kept the lid on the Terps all day with Maryland tallying just two plays over 10 yards - a pair of 13 yard runs - across 53 total snaps.

Even more impressive, Ohio State held the Terps to 22 yards or less on 11 of 12 possessions. The lone drive of more than 22 yards was the 75-yard scoring march aided by four OSU penalties (30 yards).

This defense still looks like a work in progress but even so, it appears ready to face an Indiana offense averaging 40.2 points per game (No. 14) and 462.7 yards of total offense (No. 20).
That’s the part we have to stop. If the bucks just don’t spot teams extra yards or possessions with penalties or turn the ball over they’ll be very difficult to just out play.

WR Jeremiah Smith (All B1G, B1G Freshman of Year, B1G WR of Year, Unanimous All-American, 2025 Rose Bowl Off MVP, National Champion)

Classy move by Braylon Edwards

Login to view embedded media
Smith's two touchdowns pushed his season total to 11 as he became the first Buckeye to record at least 10 touchdown catches in three different seasons. He also now had 38 career touchdown grabs putting him just one behind Braylon Edwards' B1G record of 39. I feel like record is officially on notice. Looks like Braylon thinks the same.
