Recap
PFT CommenterTodd Bowles is a coward for not going for two against the Chiefs
Todd Bowles is the biggest fucking coward in the world... You somehow got yourself in position where you can win the game, score a touchdown, and then you have the opportunity to go for two on the road Monday football against an undefeated team. Or you can kick an extra point like a coward, go to overtime and think that you can win an overtime against literally Patrick Mahomes.
Big CatCaleb Williams will get ruined by the Bears and every other rookie quarterback in his class will be better
I'm officially down bad. And Caleb Williams is gonna get ruined. Drake May's gonna be better. Jayden Daniels already better. Bo Nicks is better. Michael Penix is gonna be better. They're all gonna be better. And I'm just gonna be, I'm just back in the whole cycle.
College Football
Big CatIndiana should be ranked ahead of Ohio State and Texas because they are undefeated
I think you should just like, as a personal belief, the undefeated team should be ranked ahead of the team with a loss no matter what the schedule is like at this point in the season... Indiana's undefeated. And you could say, well they haven't beaten anyone. True. But if you go common opponents... Indiana beat Nebraska by a million.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
PFT CommenterThe NBA Slam Dunk Contest should be replaced by a Layup Contest
I think they should do a layup contest instead of slam dunk contest. [Ja Morant's 360 layup] was sick... I thought to myself like, with enough practice I could possibly do that. Also not true. But it still made me think.
MaxJuan Soto will sign a contract worth $700 million
I think he's gonna get 700 million. Yeah... I think he's gonna get a stupid amount of money. But the fact that the way he's going about it just means that like, yeah, it doesn't, he doesn't give a fuck who's giving him this money.
Interview
Brian BaldingerThe Lions are essentially unstoppable on offense
I feel like every team is a man short... They just have the perfect combination right now of Montgomery, who's your mutter and closer, Jahmyr Gibbs, who's your home run hitter, and oh by the way, Jared Goff doesn't miss an open receiver. So they're, they're pretty much unstoppable on offense right now.
Brian BaldingerSaquon Barkley will win the NFL rushing title
I think Saquon's gonna win the rushing title. I know Derrick Henry leads the league in rushing, but I think Saquon's gonna win it... I think their offensive line is better than Baltimore's. And I think that you watch Mekhi Becton in there at right guard, like he's just, you know, there's just, he's just a freak.
Brian BaldingerThe Tennessee Titans are the best two-win team and will play spoiler
Tennessee Titans... seriously, like they can, they legitimately can run the football. Bill Callahan's coaching the offensive line... J.C. Latham was the right pick at left tackle... they've been in a lot of games. They won last week. They put up 400 something yards of offense against Detroit the week before. That's a team... I wouldn't take that team lightly on any given week.
