You didn't watch him at LSU?

Nope. Guess I missed out. Kid is good...

I definitely thought he looked goob but not the greatest game. Barely 5 yards per pass.....just not sure how much was his fault, and he did make some really nice throws.

Wasn't expecting the greatest game in his 2nd career game. He looked solid for a rookie and will only get better

Did my comment come across as though I said otherwise?

A little bit, yeah.

He looked impressive to me. Obviously a lot of room to grow still. He is going to be one of the best in a couple years.

The Browns defense is not any better than the Bengals, at least the back 7. So many injuries...either they are that bad or the plan was to give Burrow those checkdowns or short passes. It helped him get in a rhythm...they were on the field a lot longer than the Bengals defense so maybe that was the issue. Mix of both, too many injuries that LB core and secondary

said "I thought he looked good and he made some really nice throws". also made mention not sure struggles were his fault.

But if he (or you) thinks that comes across as negative I wont stop ya from having that opinion.

Haven't seen it confirmed nor the entire BIG schedule, but trust the person who showed me the OSU schedule. @Wamu @Shanemansj13 @Stakesarehigh

Oct. 24: vs. Nebraska at Ohio Stadium (FOX)
Oct. 31: at Penn State at Beaver Stadium
Nov. 7: vs. Rutgers at Ohio Stadium
Nov. 14: at Maryland at Maryland Stadium
Nov. 21: vs. Indiana at Ohio Stadium
Nov. 28: at Illinois at Memorial Stadium
Dec. 5: at Michigan State at Spartan Stadium
Dec. 12: vs. Michigan at Ohio Stadium
Dec. 19: Big Ten Championship game at Lucas Oil Stadium OR crossover game against the team that finished in the same place in the west division as the Buckeyes did in the east.

Curious how they picked the crossover. Figured they'd pair teams with where they finished last year. 1st plays 1st, etc.

Nebraska and illinois are their rivals

But yes this is accurate

Rivals over Wisconsin? Just figured they'd make it look better for CFP selection. But would think if they win them all they'll be in.

The nebraska deal is recent i just know they chose them to be a semi permanent crossover.

I think they're falling back on the planned crossover games before they added the 9th

 

[Wamu]

On a different topic for a moment. I think hammer has a severe mental problem. I've lost track of how many anti Ohio State / anti Urban Meyer threads he's started. Started a new one today. It's funny that the Buckeyes are in that fools head 24/7.

In before the Ohio State haters start bitching about the schedule.

Have to agree with something I heard Saban said. That we need something subjective to pick the CFP as gonna be very hard to compare teams from different conferences.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo named NBA MVP for second straight season

Giannis is the first player since Steph Curry to go back-to-back

good point but easier to do with a guy who is MVP caliber. But no doubt Bmore saw something and knew how to use him.

It wasn't exactly hidden. I only really watched Louisville play against Syracuse and had already seen enough of Lamar. College to pro transition is getting cleaner by the year.

Bengals need to invest heavily in their OL next. They've got talent in the skill positions, need the trenches addressed.

does seem to be a little easier, but if it was as obvious as you say no way the guy gets passed on by nearly everyone who does this for a living.
