Justin Fields is not a viable starting quarterback in the NFL

Until you have [Justin Fields] on your team, you can't fully, in theory, he's got everything. But then you watch him and you're like, okay, there's something. It's just, it's just not there the way it needs to be for a starter in the NFL.

Josh McDaniels deserves more respect as an offensive coordinator and will eventually get a third shot as a head coach

I think Josh McDaniels, he needs more respect. I've been saying that he's, he is a great offensive coordinator and we definitely, we whiffed on Wednesday's show when we talk about retread head coaches... McDaniels is, he is that guy that got the second shot, he's gonna get another shot.

Ohio State vs. Indiana is the toughest matchup in the country for the Buckeyes

If I were to say of any team in the country, like what's the toughest matchup for Ohio State? It's Indiana... because they can run the football... Mendoza is also very good... That's gonna make life difficult on what I think is the best defense in college football.
