Jackson is improving at a huge rate though and he’s basically unplayable at this stage. And it’s not like the rest of them are chumps he’s carrying either.
Oh I still think they'll win it.
But history provides us with recent examples. Cam Newton with a similar skillset and Mahomes who looked unstoppable at this point last year. They got into the play-offs and fell short.
Newton looked like a Massey Ferguson running compared to Jackson. He’s like giving Barry Sanders a good arm.
This NFL all time team is some load of bollocks with the amount of players they’ve selected at each position. And 10 head coaches?
Should have kept it to a 53 and made it mean something.

LSU and Ohio State wins today please![]()
When are they on?
Cheers. I see the cotton bowl is on too. That used to be a really good one every year (though this matchup isn’t getting the blood flowing).
EDIT: Didn’t it used to be an SEC Bowl?

Cotton Bowl (Penn State/Memphis) has started nicely. Should be a great run of games today.
LSU have flown out the blocks here.
Imagine what the Coach O speech must've been like today, especially with their DC losing his daughter-in-law in a plane crash on her way to the game. It's no wonder they've come out massively fired up.
Also, the Ravens have agreed a three year deal with Marcus Peters![]()

Ominous start.
Run it, jalen and "throw it to ceded, jalylen" are a solid gameplan to at least make a game of it.
Oklahoma won’t be able to keep it up enough times to hang with these. At least 17 by the time it finishes.
It's over by the second quarterLSU just bullying Justin Broyles today.
Oklahoma still held back by their defence, and with the two best players (Murray & Gallimore) off to the NFL this year, as well as their QB & best WR, it does seem like their window might be slipping away a bit.
Savage stuff.
What a difference a qb makes though. Lsu were in purgatory before burrow and although he’s off this year to the nfl the legacy he leaves behind is immense. The recruiting they’ve got off the back of him will be stunning.
Transfer portal quarterbacks. Goldmine.
Are they even going to play Burreaux at all in the second half? They could have a legitimate chance to score 100pts here if they wanted it.
Not again, surely?![]()
This game is going to make JK Dobbins a first rounder, and it really might end up being another blowout if things keep going the way the did in the opening quarter.
Oh boy, Clemson might end up losing Tee Higgins, Justyn Ross & Trevor Lawrence before half-time.
EDIT: Man Barbie back in, and Clemson now on the board, but now Dobbins down for Ohio State, who also had Shaun Wade ejected for targeting on the sack that put Trev down. LSU must be loving this so far.

Well that was a much better game than the first one! Three decisions lost Ohio State the game though.
1. Shaun Wade being ejected
2. The fumble being overturned (I have NO IDEA how that wasn’t a fumble, by the way)
3. Not going for 2 when you’re up by a point
Not Justin Fields’ best game, either.
So there's been an interesting "What if?" scenario worked out. The scenario is what if all of the games that finished with a 1 score victory had the 1 score reversed?
The table looks very interesting. Some teams dont change much, suggesting they mainly win comfortably. But others almost completely flip their record, perhaps suggesting they're bad at game management or unlucky. Or they constantly have the ball last but never finish the drive.

So the Bottlers Table then.

Peters has been extended.
Panthers doing their best to provide a late entry for worst performance of the season. It's more than half way through the second quarter and they've gained sixteen total yards, four passing and twelve rushing.
Why is this shit on Sky? Did they let Reynolds choose what was shown?
They’ve had a horror show of a season, CMC aside.
They might be best placed just shoving mccaffrey in wildcat at this point.
What’s going to happen with dalton too?
There’s no way the bengals don’t take burrow #1 but dalton really hasn’t been bad. He won’t want to sit as a backup. Trade to someone as a placeholder?
They've been bad but not this bad. They wouldn't have scored a point all season if they'd been this bad for the duration. If the Saints left their starters in for this whole game they could put up eighty plus.
Nice catch for a LB.
Fitzmagic
Gilmore has been fisted by Parker.
Good man Fitzpatrick. Still though, wouldn’t put it past the Pats to get to FG range here.
Where was the 15 yard penalty on the restart there? Do they kick it from closer rather than send New England back to the 10?
I fucking love Jameis Winston.
That’s the cheap shot you’d expect from the Lions.
Crosby will miss anyway.
How the fuck this Packers team is one game away from #1 seed in the NFC is beyond me. They’ve been shite for a large portion of the season.
I’m not going back 5 days in this thread to check if anyone posted it but this Wilkins guy just became my favourite player.

Yeah, Christian Wilkins is an elite 'football character' guy. Starting D-lineman for Clemson, nailed on first rounder, still played on all their special teams units, played FB & RB on some packages for their offence, and even took a snap at safety in their spring game![]()
Meh, he's no Pat Ricard.
Just read that Kitchens had been binned at the very same moment the delivery driver turned up outside with my pizza. What a thirty seconds that was.
Usually teams wait until Monday after week 17 (Black Monday in the NFL world), they barely waited an hour.
Poor bastard.
