If I told you after the Mississippi State game that Burrow would be a favorite for the Heisman after 3 games this year, you'd have called me crazy, and rightfully so.


All true, but you are getting away from you original statements regarding Joe's ability and what was shown last year. 2 different O however personnel remains readily the same - therefore you have your answer. Joe showed potential and now is able to use it.

No, he is saying that the run game is fine - production is great. You are contending to have best players on the field - how are those two things the same?

Now that you are outlining CEH and LF are not up to whatever standard you have, validates the point the current production, does it not?

Making the argument to have the best players on the field is an easy decision.

A tangent to that, is how to define "best" but generally it can be understood. For example, can't pass protect or don't know the plays, would not be defined "best" even with all the athletic ability.

Lanard gets way too much negativity. Dude has good hands, works in pass pro, and runs downhill. Only the rant would think this isn't the "best" for the offense at this time, but since you brought it up.

but you're ignoring the benefit of not running into stacked boxes either.


Yea but stacked box is relative to how many guys we have blocking. Basic zone scheme in an RPO you gonna have 5 blocking. You don’t have to stack the box to defend a 5 man zone blocking scheme.

unless your in 11 and have a TE block

but realistically anytime you run with 4 wide you have 5 OL blocking. what the RPO does is run off one of the defenders to cover a route away from where your running, helping give you favorable numbers.

You're the dude that claimed calling Joe Burrow a Top-5 QB was crazy.


With the way he played last year, calling him a top 5 QB was crazy.

So far this year, he's played lights out. Hopefully he can keep it up.

I never one time said the offense is bad... it looks terrific


The passing offense looks fantastic. The rushing offense.....

3 games into the season we've flip-flopped what our offenses of past years have done. Right now, we have the second ranked passing offense and the 105th rushing offense. In years past, it was always the other way around. Great rushing attack and average at best passing attack.

hope it gets better by working on the running game more. It would make the offense just that much more explosive. But you don’t like that idea because it would take away from Joes stats......


Nailed it dukke.

YOU didn't have the chops to understand Burrow's elite skill-set, so anyone who does is crazy (in your opinion).

You are one sad little dude, Keese. Just another "fire O, hire Aranda" shill.

Perhaps I am. But at least I didn't follow a player from one program to another and then proceed to blame every player and coach on the team (except the player that you followed) for the failures that happen during the course of a football season.

Post a link of one of my posts where I've stated we should fire o and hire Aranda. TIA.

It’s more about us losing at the LOS on almost every run play. CEH has made people miss on several occasions when it should have been negative plays. LSU shouldn’t have a 4 man front of NSU caliber athletes stuffing the run at the LOS, and they did. More than once.

Buckeye Jeaux almost makes you want to root against Burrow. Dude is a fricking hack of the highest order.

The guy seemed to chill out after his little timeout but he has reverted back to his normal name calling and all that nonsense.

Just as I thought. Can't provide a link because 99% of your posts are nothing more than you lashing out at people who don't support your way of thinking and don't believe Burrow was a top 5 QB in 2018.

Carry on joe.

Yes he does. I haven't rooted against Burrow but I'm damned sure ready for Burrow to run out of college eligibility so Buckeye will hit the road.

Been good, Earl. You as well, I hope.



Liking the season so far, definitely. I'd like to see a few things gel more on defense which I think will happen, but I'm really liking what I have seen so far from this team as a whole.


Let's keep it going.

I'm doing okay I suppose. I'm a diabetic and my insulin pump died on me and I've been having a heck of a time getting my blood sugars under control without it. Insurance company seems to want to drag their feet approving another one.

So far so good. Defense needs to step up a little but I believe they will.

Sorry to hear this, man. Don't let the insurance company deny you of what you need.


Glad you're enjoying the season too!
