Ohhh yea god he died on the teddy two gloves hill....

Wasn't he the matt coral thumper too?

I don't recall on that. The guy who was the loudest Matt Corral fan was rippadon and he was always saying "let's eat" referring to Golden Corral. It was cringy. But I couldn't help but feel sorry for the guy. It's been tough being a Panthers fan that's for damn sure.

Post that…bullshet…and do the last 2 seasons.  I will sit and sip my beer

I wasn't referring to 2 years ago. I'm referering to the season about which everyone is discussing Jeanty about.

Well you have to remember you are talking to someone who was once the most outspoken defender of Teddy Bridgewater. He's gonna do what he's gonna do to carry water for his guy. He's certainly committed to his cause.

Better than dieng in the hill for Sam Howell.

I can't imagine being as obsessed about a rival college team as you are. LOL

He looked very ordinary against the one good defense he played against.

That's the game you're going to go by when Penn State has an elite front 7 vs. a much worse Boise State oline...Teams were just not able to run against Penn State this year

Not saying Jeanty is the greatest thing, but the talent disparity between those two teams was probably the biggest in the CFP behind maybe Penn State vs SMU.

There was a HUGE gap between ASU and Texas and Skattebo put up a legendary performance.

Penn State was 8th in run defense and Texas was 12th.

I think Jeanty is a very good RB prospect. But I do think people are really overrating him. I don't think he's special and they're getting caught up in his college stats and overlooking the reality that he doesn't contribute much at all as a receiver and that he was putting up those stats versus well below average competition. I just don't see the generational type RB prospect people are trying to make him out to be.

What does one have to do with the other? Teddy got plenty of chances with multiple teams. Howell got one full season with a soon to be fired head coach in Ron Rivera and then got sent packing.

Arizona state was definitely more creative getting a mismatch on skattebo in the passing game. Honestly, I thought that was the most impressive thing about skattebo that game (that and his ability to stay up after first contact).

I still don't think Texas' defense was particularly great and was a bit overrated. They managed to avoid the better offensive teams (at least passing ones) in the SEC.

But yeah, I still wouldn't draft a running back very high unless they are a freak athlete like Barkley or elite at running and receiving the ball like CMC

An elite back is a luxury and their shelf life isn’t long.  It’s better to use FA or a trade to make that happen when you already have a good team.
