    the wind was awful I get it.  but…


    this is a great finesse team with one of the best WRs I’ve seen in college football and another equally as good that will come back soon hopefully.  We could ride those two to a title.   I think Day is pushing the “tough” identity and I don’t think this is a “nasty” team.  I think that team exists up North unfortunately.

    This is the first time in maybe two decades where I’m not confident in the Michigan game.  I think Michigan will take 4-5 yards all game on the ground and Playaction will work I don’t know if we will be sound in our assignments.  The kid they have now is the best arm talent they’ve had in decades.  Back to OSU game, I saw a 3rd and 7 play yesterday where we had four guys bite on Hull no containment by the DE and the Safety read Hull too- they had kid that probably runs a 4.9 scamper for 8 yards on 3rd and 7.  Hero Ball.
     

    Now if we decide to stick to our bread and butter. Deep crossers with 60/40 pass run split they will have problems covering our guys.  Hopefully CJ Southern California Stroud can handle any elements. 

    Day’s play calls major point of frustration this year too.  
     

    9-0 with some warts 

    I hope I'm dead wrong, but I think TTUN stretches their win streak against Ohio State to two games.

    You shut your dirty, whoreish mouth.

    This Corleone kid from Cincy on the other hand....   he's caught my eye.

    He made you an offer you couldn't refuse?

    I'm very curious about how he became a Corleone, because he has very little resemblance to Al Pacino, for sure.

    Thanks, that's what I was looking for.

    He’s actually a true frosh so 2025.  He’s impressive and was lightly recruited.  It depends if he stays healthy I think he could could be drafted there.  Looks like has good vision and great speed. Haven’t seen his hands that much. 

    The other I liked last year Mohamed Ibrahim (Minnesota) Had an Achilles injury last season he’s come back this year though

    They mentioned his wrestling background today…wrestlers (besides having a screw loose in a good way) they have elite balance 

    Oh yes that 1-7 now 1-8 Northwestern team really put up a fight despite being totally overmatched by that loaded Ohio State football factory. 

    The BUCKEYES might be the best team in the entire country......that NW team had me a bit nervous until the 4th quarter.

    Fitzgerald might be the best coach in the Big 10. He doesn't get enough credit because their record isn't always good, but they always come to play with far less talent & blue chippers.

    I’m at 50/50 now.

    It is the one game on the schedule this year where OSU has to win the turnover battle, not commit penalties and especially stupid penalties and tackle well. They can get away with being sloppy 90% of the time but not this game.

    What I’ve seen from Michigan this year is they win first down on offense - it is usually 4-5 yards on that down and then it’s 2nd and manageable with their young QB making low risk high percentage throws.  Flat to the back and TE.  One of their TEs is out for the year.  

    The lower percentage throws are play action and chuck it deep.  Can Burke hold up there?  They’ve worked for them because the running game is working and they have had superior athletes most of the time. 
     

    Can our front seven not play hero ball and do their respective jobs (such as can the defensive ends keep their outside shoulders free and play contain?)  Zach Harrison was especially  awful last year. 

    If we are to win we need to put them in 2nd and 9 plus consistently get their offense off schedule. When UM has won over the last quarter century in this series it is with their run game sparking their victories. 

     

    On offense I hope the elements don’t come into play.  Otherwise I’m confident on the condition that Ryan Day sticks with our identity airing the ball out and not running stretch run plays AND we have an enough opportunities we can’t have UM limit possessions by running 10-15 play drives. 
     

    More possessions better for OSU.

    Correct.

    I'd also add that it was glad to see Day call a few RPOs with Stroud vs Northwestern. Here I thoght he was a scardy cat and wouldn't run. Weird to see a Buckeye QB without mobility.

    I'd like to think OSU has thrown the 3rd-in-b10 fewest # of passes this season in a bid to change their tendencies vs UM..

    Yes!!! This too.

    Great point I’ve yelled this out a handful of times this season 

  • It's looking like Houston is going to have two, quite high, first round draft picks.  And we're vying for the 35th pick.

    ... and most Browns fans will want them to draft a QB and play him in the first game...

    Yes,   it's that...that   "Most Wonderful Time of the Year" .......  you know  Thanksgiving,  Christmas  and unfortunately now the NFL Draft Days.

    I still sometimes can't believe how our wonderful team ownership managed to mortgage the farm and then some to get a starting quarterback. 

    Geeezzzus H Christmas  ?.

    Yes, and off-topic, why this Texans team allowed to have these picks when they played a large part into #4's dealings? 

    On topic, get us a speedy, mean ass LB or 2 in the draft. If we're shopping at Walmart for interior D linemen every season, at least get guys who can tackle besides our secondary.

    We haven't had even a "B minus" grade at the LB crew since BB was here. It's a position of NEED & VALUE you stupid analytic idiot FO.

  • We are one of 8 teams with 3 wins.  And there's only one team with less than 3 wins.  We are incredibly close to having the #2 pick in the draft.  (if we had a 1st rounder)  But with just one more win we could jump to the 14th pick (if we had a 1st rounder).  But even though we don't have a 1st round pick...having that 34th overall pick in the draft is ALMOST like having a 1st round pick.   Whereas one more win and we fall to the middle of round 2.  

    Just sayin'.

    The good news is - we might not  need to draft another kicker if our STs Coordinator ever figures we don't need to continue putting the holder closer to the line of scrimmage than most other teams.  There's a trend unfolding that we can only hope gets noticed quicker than the 12 men on the field trend.  Even back breaking penalty flags couldn't stop that trend so let's see if we can't have better luck with this one.

    Yeah, we're getting kicks blocked at the LOS.  Put him 7 yards back again and see if he gets kicks blocked.

  • After a one game respite, the Panthers have benched Baker Mayfield for Sam Darnold.

    This almost guarantees the Browns will not get a 4th round pick for Mayfield, which was conditional on him starting the majority of snaps at QB for the Panthers this year. 

  • Kareem Hunt will walk after this season.   don't we get a comp pick for free agents that walk, depending also on who we sign?

    Yeah, I think its a net gain/loss thing.
