I'll wait I guess. They really didn't play a poor 2nd half yesterday, and though not good they aren't embarrasing themselves I guess. 49ers are a 6-1 team and I thought they'd lose by 20 plus. It's a first year coach going without training camp and a qb in his first full season as a starter. I'm not thrilled with what I see with either, but their personnel may not be too good as of yet. That Haden and Ward they picked up in the draft last year look pretty good and Taylor and Sheard are both starting on the D line this year who they picked up first two rounds as is Little at WR who played no football last year as he was ineligible. Hardesty has disappointed, yes but no one goes 100 percent in the draft. Need to see Colt 9 more games this year, and then start on fixing the O line next year. The really easy schedule has helped them win some games and could win a few more with it so Luck is no option, but should still get a pretty high pick next year. I wouldn't trade down as they've done a ton recently. They've got Atlanta's number one next year too with this year's trade down!! I can wait....I've been doing it for 40 plus years...what's another 10 or 20!!

Think we will have to wait for the regular season to play out.It's pretty nuts. I picked the Browns with 9 because I thought the 49ers were the next hot team to go down.Didn't happen.


True on the draft, but I can't see taking players because you think their history will miraculously turn...like Brainless Edwards.

Little fit the mold.''Hey! He didn't play last year! We'll take him."He is starting because his experience in not playing fits in well with our offense.

It was actually smart picking the Browns....you lost it on the 3rd down facemask when they had them stopped, and then the pass to the 400 lb nose tackle on 3rd down!! It happens, but those were tough things that the Browns are good at making happen to themselves!!

Perilous weeks ahead for Ohio States whipping post---the Vulvarenes.They are at they Iota Caulkpies place.Iota comes off a heartbreaking one point loss to that juggernaut know as the Minny-soh-tah Molten Loafers.Then the Vulvarenes travel to meet the Fighting Vagini....always tough in the muff.


One loss is in that mess.

They may get by the overrated CornFucl<ers at The Outhouse.

But then they get Ohio State for the final game.....they don't stand a chance.




Looks like no better than 9-3 for them, which won't be good enough.Too bad.1-10 is coming up......and that will mean 8 in a row.Michigan fans--if I have offended you------------good.

My Nittany Lions are somehow 8-1 with not one but two bad quarterbacks. It's beyond amazing...only losing to a God's conference team called Alabama. I credit the scheduling!! 8-4 may be in the cards though...now play Hornpuskers, then go to Buckeye land, and Badger land. No more Iotas or Hoosiers on the schedule. Meat Chicken isn't on our schedule. I love it...Joe's now like your senile great-grandpa, he's gone beyond grandpa stage!

joe going from grandpa to great grandpa 5 years ago in buckeye land...

Ordinarily I would not allow enemy sporty news here, but since you are a sr. writer for this fine thread----why,I'll allow it.


Did not look at the link as I have a very weak stomach.

State Penn is an interesting team in that the defense seems super duper and the offense.... not sa hot.I'd rather have it that way than the reverse.If they win the rest of their games, then they're in that title game.It seems anyone can beat anyone in the BI this year.Really.Plus I think State Penn is the only team that controls their fate.
