J.J. McCarthy (once a tCun, always a tCun)

1). Has one of the games brightest young coaches
2). Has a top 3 WR in the sport
3). Better than average running backs
4). Vikings defense is pretty good!

I don't know how things could be laid out any better for JJM. Sam Darnold won 14 games last year with the same squad.
He just can't be asked to throw more than 20 times a game. They gotta take the ball out of his hands

QB1 Julian Sayin (National Champion)

That might also be a place for the Kienholz package.
Yes. Either use Kienholz like Florida did with Tebow in those goalline situations, or be willing to actually have Sayin run the ball in our offense. It has become apparent that we do not want Sayin to get hit and therefore are unwilling to have him run the ball. We have seen this with Day protecting his starting QBs in the past. But we did not see it last season, and look what happened. It is obvious that we are not afraid to run Kienholz, that Kienholz is a capable runner, and that Keinholz has nice touch on the short yardage passes. I would like to at least see us try it out.

QB1 Julian Sayin (National Champion)

Agree with entire post, but I’ll add that the necessary fraction-of-a-second adjustment for his go/no-go decisions should come with experience more than instruction.
Agree entirely. Similar to my point in the Arvell thread about the tackling angle he chose to take, the really good ones learn what they can do and what they can do in different circumstances.

RB Lamar "Bo" Jackson (Official Thread)

My former OSU RB comparable for Peoples has been Antonio Pittman, but it's starting to look like that might be optimistic. We'll see. I don't have a comparable for Jackson as he doesn't really remind me of anybody else in particular.

Micheal wiley?
Wiley was more of a straight line speedster and ran taller to me. Going beyond OSU, I looked at some old clips and Dalvin Cook from FSU is, for me, the closest match I've found so far.

Game Thread #1 tOSU at Washington, Sat. Sept. 27th, 3:30 ET, CBS

I don't know shit about this Husky team. But as long as Jake Locker and Vita Vea aren't walking out there, I'd say we'll be ok.
I don't know, Jake Locker really liked throwing the ball to our guys in that 07 game.

16/33 with 3 picks

J.J. McCarthy (once a tCun, always a tCun)

As a resident of a suburb of Cleveland, I think I'd like you to explain what "historically bad" means. "Historically bad" compared to other Bears' years? Or compared to all NFL teams? Will they go 1-31 this year and next?
I kinda thought they might get 3 wins, but actually, the bears had a one win season way back when. So carry on.
