  1. Josh Allen doesn't live in Firebaugh anymore.
  2. A few weeks ago I thought that no matter who was making it to the playoffs, it wouldn't really matter because Georgia looked like a team of destiny. Now I don't know what to think. Alabama will more likely beat Cincinnati, but I don't think it'll be a blow out win. The Michigan-Georgia game could go either way, and should be a thrilling match-up. As to your reference to Michigan, and as a Michigan fan, I to don't know how good they are. The Wolverines started the season unranked, then in their first game against Western Michigan, they won easily but lost Ronnie Bell, their top WR, to a season ending knee injury. They would get significant wins over Washington and back-to-back road victories over Wisconsin & Nebraska. Then came the first big game of the year against Michigan State, which they subsequently lost after having a large lead in the second half. Despite that, they persevered instead of folding. They would get another hard fought victory in Happy Valley against the Nittany Lions. Finally came the big game against Ohio State which they won convincingly and then took care of business with Iowa in the Big 10 Championship game. It's been quite a ride for this team that most people did not have real expectations for, yours truly included. This is a solid team with it's share of standout players. DE Aidan Hutchinson being the biggest one of all, but he's not the only player on defense who makes an impact. The Wolverines have good LB's in David Ojabo & Josh Ross and a strong secondary lead by Daxton Hill, DJ Turner & Vincent Gray. DL Mazi Smith is another good player. On offense, it's all about RB Hassan Haskins, who has made the most of it this year. Both he and speedy RB Blake Corum give the Wolverines a Thunder & Lightning combo. Freshman Donovan Edwards has also become a good contributor as of late. QB Cade McNamara is a solid, above average player. He's a pocket passer with decent athleticism. He can be hit or miss, as he still has a tendency to be off target on his passes. Ironically, his best game as a passer was in the loss to Michigan State. He doesn't have the athleticism or the high ceiling potential as Freshman J.J. McCarthy does, but he has done a good job in leading the offense. At Wide Receiver, the Wolverines have a lot of speedy smurfs. None of them really stand out as playmakers, except Freshman Andrell Anthony has been a late season contributor who has flashed great ability. Tight Ends Erick All & Luke Schoonmaker have been prime targets all year. The Offensive Line is lead by veterans Andrew Vastardis & Andrew Stueber, along with Zak Zinter who have all been strong in leading the rushing attack. Kicker Jake Moody is one of the best, if not the best in the nation, and Punter Brad Robbins is excellent. GO BLUE!!!
  3. The refs will still screw us Don't underestimate the officials
  4. That has nothing to do with this. Brady brings this on himself. The so-called GOAT has shown us many times how classless he can be, and everyone always gives him a pass on it. So excuse for calling him out showing what a real jerk he can be. Brady willingly ran over to the opposing teams sidelines to do this. Why can't the "GOAT" just suck it up and go to his own sideline and just take it?
  5. Thank you! Why is Brady going all the way over to the opponent's sideline and not going back to his own team's sideline? Brady can piss off. The biggest whiner in the history of the NFL.
  6. The refs would still have found a way to beat us
  7. Agreed, and those Masshole players on the Patriots* always try to get cheap penalties after the play is over every damn time. Brown cannot afford to fall for their crap.
  8. Off to my Bills Bar. Just win the damn game. GO BILLS!!!
  9. Everyone was freaking out about Josh Allen's injury so much and Sanders' injury was overlooked. I didn't know he was injured until Wednesday.
  10. You do know that he's injured, right?
  11. So are these songs creepy for the way they are, or are they creepy because they were used from disturbing scenes in movies?
  12. They have rich young women too, but they couldn't possibly be vindictive either.
  13. That's fantastic. Let's face it, this charity should be reached out to by all fans of every team in the NFL. Except for the Patriots* & Brady fans.
  14. I don't give a damn! We get screwed over constantly. That's what matters.
  15. Tim Brando on Twitter: "It’s a problem. Romo & Nantz were extremely diplomatic let’s say! Im@not suggesting “fixed”as what some are suggesting but PI is a problem the league must fix. In CFB it truly varies from crew to crew. As long as they are consistent with “no calls” and they weren’t close to that!" / Twitter
  16. So sad. God be with his family. RIP
  17. That won't be a problem anymore. Alabama's Non-Conference schedule for the next 10-12 years has some very good quality opponents. Good on them, I like to see that from teams.
  18. McDermott is very unforgiving when it comes to fumbles, which I get, but this discipline tends to come back and bite us. If McKenzie is not playing as a KR anymore because of the fumble against the Colts, I can understand that. What I do not understand is benching McKenzie completely. We should be using him on our offense. What happened to the jet sweeps we would run with him? They were good plays for us last year. As soon as Breida fumbled in the first quarter, I knew that Brieda would not be back until probably the 4th quarter, and that we would get more plays from Zack Moss. Sure enough that's what happened. I would like to see McDermott be a bit more forgiving of the players, by giving them another chance, instead of benching them and giving lesser players more time.
  19. If bringing up Williams equates to Moss being inactive, then fine, do it. I would still rather see Singletary getting the majority of carries. He actually gets yardage, unlike Moss. Use Brieda as a change of pace back and extra receiver.
