Oso planning to go pro
IF the Vikings make the playoffs, no one is going to want to play them. And if they expand the playoffs further to 8 teams, and they end up the 8th seed, I would rather finish 2nd.
Eh. Cook is incredible. But no team quarterbacked by Kirk Cousins scares me.
Kirk definitely shouldn't fear anyone. But if Dalvin is hummin he doesn't have to do much. And the Vikes have 2 really, really good receivers. All Kirk really has to do is what he did last. Quick balls over the middle and let the guys go to work.That said, this team is still 4-5
Bears offensive line is terrible. A guy could be killed playing behind that line.Awful.
Ryan Pace has drafted 39 players as Bears GM.Two of them - sixth and seventh round picks, respectively - are offensive tackles.But he's taken five running backs.
Tower-MU82 Bowl this Sunday.For my side, McCaffrey not expected to play. Still no word on Bridgewater.This one is for none of the marbles!
Detroit made Alex Smith a hero. Look for your offense to be just fine.
Retaining Pace after this season is franchise malpractice
The Lions have a long and glorious history of making unknown quarterbacks a lot of money.
A real offensive explosion between our two Kittykats. Panthers have been worst 3rd quarter team in the league.
Jake Scott, one of my favorite players from my days rooting for the great Dolphins teams of the 70s, died yesterday at age 75.Playing alongside Dick Anderson, one of the great safety pairings ever, Scott intercepted 2 passes in SB7 to cap the only undefeated season in NFL history and was named MVP of the game. A true ballhawk, with 49 career picks in 126 games.Scott was a hippy and a rebel. He feuded with both Georgia coach Vince Dooley and Dolphins coach Don Shula, and he left both teams as a result. He left Georgia after his junior year but couldn't go to the NFL because of the league's rules at the time. So he played a season in Canada and the Dolphins got him by taking him in the 7th round of that year's draft -- one of the best picks in franchise history.Interesting factoid: Jimmy the Greek cited Scott's shoulder injury as a reason he made Washington the favorite over the 16-0 Dolphins. That the Dolphins not only won but Scott intercepted 2 passes to be MVP haunted Greek for years. Greek should have known Scott would play. The previous year, he played in SB6 (a loss to Dallas) despite having broken bones in both wrists.When he had those injuries, Scott famously joked: "I know who my friends are when I go to the bathroom."Scott wore No. 13 before Dan Marino did. The number has since been retired by the Dolphins.RIP Jake Scott. When the Steelers lose, I hope the remaining Dolphins will toast Jake, Shula and Jim Kiick, all of whom died this year. Effen 2020.
