Denver's growing injury list.
Blake Bortles IN.
Season saved!
Deion sanders moving into coaching at college at Jackson state.
Yep. No idea either.
LSU, Oklahoma, etc
More like OkLOLhoma, am I right?
LSU showing the expected regression as well - shockingly a guy who's been a backup for 4 years isn't as good as the guy who just had the greatest QB season in college football history.
EDIT: Defence looking solid though, even with Stingley out, although MSU's center isn't doing his team any favours with all the dodgy snaps & Costello looks a bit questionable.

Costello could’ve been picked all three times there from his own end zone.
The offence looks a shadow. No brady, no burrow, no elite receivers, no moss.
Apparently one of the freshman receivers is good. Not obvious as yet who..
Osirus Mitchell has played well for MSU so far, but not much else going right for them.
LSU receiver is probably Kayshon Boutte, as I've heard good things about his potential, although they do also have the second highest ranked TE ever in Arik Gilbert, who's also starting for them as a true freshman & has megahype with dynasty/devy Twitter.
Well, that looked easy.
Crazy how different teams look year to year.
Arkansas have Felipe franks now and gerogia who lost their transfer qb might be in trouble.
Your man from QB1 is starting at wake forest again though which is good. Sam hu-something?
That was lucky as fuck. Manziel esque throw it up and hope for the best.
Manziel had mike Evans, Brennan gets lucky.
Sam 'Shartman' Hartmann
Georgia might be the most chaotic QB room in college football - lose Fromm & have Jamie Newman transfer in then opt out, and JT Daniels transfer in but get hurt, only for the third guy who's been there all along to end up as the game one starter & look like a shambles.
LSU starting to get some rhythm going now - Arik Gilbert with a couple of big plays too.
Arik Gilbert is the one I was thinking of. Herbstreit was going crazy over him.
Brennan looks like a qb that should’ve just transferred to the la tech to play.
Oh boy
The offensive line play in this game is giving them a run for their money though.
So today we had:
- Oklahoma lose to Kansas State for the second year in a row, this time throwing away a 20+pt lead
- Texas squeak past Texas Tech in overtime, weeks after Texas Tech almost lost to Houston Baptist.
- Georgia have to go to their fourth QB to beat Arkansas
- LSU losing to Mississippi State
But don't worry, Alabama are steamrolling Missouri. Think we can safely assume COVID hasn't actually changed anything & it'll still be Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State cruising to the playoffs & stomping whichever jobber team gets to join them in the semi finals.

Man, I've been on the Miami/D'Eriq King hype train this offseason, so seeing how they've started the year has been really encouraging, but holy fuck Florida State are such a shambles. You hoped it would get better with Mike Norvell in there now after all the success he had at Memphis, but he didn't even get to week one without a load of problems, then they lose to Georgia Tech despite blocking three kicks, and they look garbage again so far tonight. Something is really broken in there.
That was after already running two consecutive reverses on the previous drive that both also got immediately smashed for huge losses. They're embarrassing themselves.

Jadeveon clowney what are you doing?!
Trubisky finally benched.
Does Shaun Gayle have some sort of weird back patch of hair or is that a shadow or something?
God I love the Falcons.
Denver off to a shambolic start here.
What a DKhead.
It's a pity the Denver D never gets off the fucking field because I think they're decent and Harris has been great today.
Our secondary is a mess - just racking up flags on every important down. Kamara & the O-line just carrying the team at the minute.
Hasn't started too well but Duvernay
Edit: Mahomes absolutely fisted us.
Our offence wasn't great, especially Mandrews who couldn't catch anything today but our defence which looked like a serious unit in the first two games looked horrific. We blitz, Mahomes found a man. We sat off, Mahomes found a hole etc etc.

Another season-ending injury for Denver, this time Jurrell Casey.
What're our options liable to be for the top few picks in the '21 draft?
The '21 draft could be a complete mess. Could be a lot of shots in the dark there.
However if the Broncos do tank, they could add in Trevor. He'd be a big shot in the arm. They have great receiving talent and a decent run game. Defence isn't bad either but it just can't get off the field.
I don't think we'd have challenged to win the division this year but if everybody had been fit I thought we had an outside chance of a wildcard.
The o-line needs the most work but every other unit has some talent in it. So many key injuries though. It's rough.
Titans Steelers post poned.
Guess who has Derrick Henry and James Conner in fantasy?
Broncos / Jets was a bit sloppy as you might expect but nice to get the first win on the board and I thought Rypien looked pretty good. A bit unlucky on one interception but the Jeudy TD could have been a pick another day so maybe that all balanced itself. I liked how quickly he reacted when the run play broke down and he made sure to get ahead of Gordon for a block for what led to the last TD as well.
He was a draft twitter hype boy when he came out so it was cool to see him on the field. Only watched the highlights but it seems like he was pretty much what he was expected to be - bit of a weak arm, pretty accurate underneath, decent athlete & not quite up to NFL speed mentally.
That Darnold run was filthy - think that’s three weeks running he’s pulled a properly special play out of his arse. You really have to wonder what he could be if he wasn’t in the worst situation imaginable.
Also, shoutout to Tim Patrick. Nobody ever talks about him but the guy can play. Gotta be one of the best depth receivers in the league.
The only filthy thing about that Darnold run was the defending.
And yeah Tim Patrick is good, I think with Sutton out he'll end up a pretty important player for us this year.
Top of the Division.
Jesus.
Mullens Pick 6 was a thing of beauty.
lol at the refs screwing the Patriots for once.
Cousin is 19 and a student in Texas at A&M. Got a ticket for the Florida game at the weekend.
More jealous than you can imagine. Shame it’s not filled to the brim like usual but still great.
Live on bt sport espn right now. Mon.
What a win.
I was out last night so only saw the first half, but that will probably torpedo Florida now. Considering how TAMU looked against Alabama last week, and the Clemson/Miami score, it doesn’t seem like that gap between the big three & everyone else has gotten any smaller. Looks like Georgia might be the team to be sacrificed in the playoffs at this rate - definitely seems like they’re still the team with the best chance of getting one of them, especially if Stetson Bennett can be Jake Fromm or JT Daniels can get healthy & play like a 5 star QB.
Also, RIP LSU, who might end up unranked this week, and shoutout to Arkansas, who look like they might actually be competitive for the first time in a while.

Patriots/Broncos OFF.
Titans facility is shut down too.
Dak's foot was facing the wrong way.
Watching the Tennessee game & Jarrett Guarantano has just throw two pick sixes almost back to back It’s amazing Tennesse can’t get anyone better than him, they’d probably be pretty good if they had someone even vaguely competent.
Unsurprisingly, he’s been benched (hardly the first time).
THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY THREW A PICK AS WELL

Louisville Norte dame is on sky sports nfl right now, for anyone interested
Should've been watching UCF/Memphis instead - as you might expect, they're just going up & down the field on each other. Over 1000 combined yards of offense & they haven't even hit the fourth quarter yet
Currently leading 26-14 midway through the fourth quarter against Ole Miss, who put up 48pts against Alabama last week.
Arkansas, NC State & Boston College might be three of the most impressive coaching jobs in the Power 5 at this point of the season. Also worth mentioning Liberty, who just beat an ACC team for the first time ever to go 5-0 (they knocked off Syracuse, who have been a disaster so far), and BYU, who genuinely might go undefeated this season as their schedule is pretty weak since they had to reschedule basically all of it as they're independent so the best team they'll play all year is Houston, who they just beat.
Speaking of BYU, Zach Wilson has been on fire - before the season I had him down as returning to school next year but if he keeps playing like this he'll be a day two guy (someone on ESPN just had him as QB2 behind Trev, who just MURDERED Georgia Tech in a half). Bo Nix, on the other hand, continues to cement his position in the Jarrett Guarantano Disaster Zone.
EDIT: Holy shit Matt Corral threw 6 INTs today, two of which were pick sixes No wonder Arkansas ended up winning that one

Melvin Gordon is inactive due to strep throat.
Imagine not being able to play because your throat is a bit sore...
Cam finally jumped on a fumble against the Broncos.
