Miami won those games in large part because they had Cam Ward. Their defense was complete ass. If it hasn't improved majorly they're not going to be able to just outscore everyone with Beck playing the role of Ward.

Yeah, getting his NIL bag was the smart move. Blowing a good chunk of it on a Lambo definitely was not.

Carson Beck is honestly pretty much ass. Put him on some borderline top 25 team and I honestly don't remember think he's draftable. But he did the smart thing. He hit the portal and got him a big ass NIL bag. That's what Ewers should've done too. Those guys are good enough to get big NIL money but probably aren't good enough for the NIL so go get you $$$ while the gettin's good.

I wouldn't call it "facts". I'd call it the account of a career marginal backup who evidently thought he should've been taking more snaps from one of the best in the league at his position. Seems borderline delusional to me.

God Almighty these announcers are awful. This is obviously a TD.

Okay, they overturned it. The announcing crew was high as hell. They all thought it was clearly incomplete. The kid caught the ball, tucked it and took a step. It was obviously a catch and fumble.

I want Rutgers to win but holy poo, they just got two gifts back to back. A very friendly spot to move the chains then a catch and fumble they call incomplete. That's a catch and a fumble.

Yep. At the end of the day, ECU basically ended up out-choked State. Bizarre play call on 4th and 1. One of those you're brilliant if it works but a straight up horse's ass if it fails.

The NBA is infamous for that poo. There have been way too many draft lotteries play out way too conveniently for there not to be some smoke. That trade package for Luka made zero sense on the surface for the Mavs but makes a lot more sense if there was a wink/nod backroom deal that the #1 overall pick was coming back there way with the most hyped prospect since Wemby on the board.

Boise barely averaged over 3ypc and Madsen looked like a complete JAG without the opposing D stacking the box against Jeanty.

I'm just saying, it's not like they weren't willing to pay him an absolute poo ton. Trading him for less than we turned down from the Rams for Brian Burns seems like a kick in the teeth.

Cowboys reported offered him a $200M+ contract.

Haven't read through the thread, but seems like a pretty bad deal for Dallas. The Packers were already a pretty good team so those two 1sts are likely to be late in the round, then you get an aging DT whose production fell off a cliff last year that you're probably gonna cut after this season to avoid the ballooning cap hits in his contract. Doesn't really feel like they "got" him as much as the Packers got rid of him.

Boise State/USF was competitive in the first half. I think it was 10-7 at half. Just checked back in and USF is giving them the business now. 31-7 early in the 4th.

Rough year to be a Dallas fan. First Luka, now Parsons. Oof.

ECU fans... folks, I think it's gonna be a loooooong season for y'all.

NCSU either has a pretty good defense or ECU's offense is straight trash tier. Typing as the ECU center sails the ball 10 feet over his QB's head. LOLOLOL

Yeah, didn't want that hire made but it is what it is. Gotta hope for the best now

USF's QB just absolutely BAPTIZED a BSU DB just a couple plays after the same guy got a personal foul flag for hitting him late. I mean, absolutely planted his ass. Looked like it was going for no gain and homie just got TRUCKED to give up a 1st down on 3rd and 8.

South Florida just killing themselves with penalties and miscues. QB overthrew what should've been a deep ball TD. Then a drop. Then a hold wipes out a big gain. Then the QB pulls off a Cam Newton looking 40 yard TD run and it gets called back with a very questionable holding call.

Oh lord, I'm having flashbacks...

I really hope we don't use the TE position as a huge tell on the coming play. Having a receiving TE and a blocking TE is good in theory but it's a huge liability if it becomes a big time tell on the upcoming play.

Early season games are always a big coin flip since preseason rankings are just complete projections based on some varying combination of legit expectations and hype. I mean, we all know that the blue bloods are gonna be good but how the tiers are gonna actually break out and which mid-tier teams are gonna end up punching well above their weight? Total crap shoot. I think my Heels may have a chance to be one of those mid-tier teams simply riding competent coaching and a feather soft schedule. We'll see...

Yeah, now go watch them throw those balls. There's a BIG difference.

Yeah, when I watch Burrow play and then watch Bryce play I see no difference whatsoever. Switch their places and I expect we'd see minimal difference in the Panthers and Bengals offenses. Said no rational person ever. LOL
