Fanalyst

The sport was a little bit of a multitude all over the place. Most obtrusive to me was Cam’s poor play. I don’t see him as a match wherever within the NFL. Selfishly, I hope he realizes the necessity to sharpen issues up another 12 months and *perhaps* get a shot sooner or later. Up subsequent: two video games I don’t care about — Colorado and a few bowl sport aside from the Rose Bowl. Kyle’s accomplished an excellent job getting us all to the extent the place our mindset is the convention championship and the Rose Bowl — which is the place we *ought to* be setting our sights. Love Whit and the teaching workers and the workforce. We simply fell brief this 12 months.

Thanks Whit for final 12 months going to Rose Bowl. That was enjoyable!!

What NFL workforce would need Rising? He appeared horrible final evening. He's not constant in his passing. He's a tricky child and runs effectively, however that’s not the NFL sport.

How ridiculous we're on kicking workforce. We will’t kick a subject purpose.
