The first big game of the North Division kicks off in 10 minutes on ESPN. Interesting match up featuring two first-year quarterbacks and what looks like a hell of a lot of rain. Could be a sloppy one.
Comments here, if you please.

Bowden
Espn refuses to ackknowledge the real reason pressure has been exerted on bowden. They spend 10 minutes defending him and what he did last decade and they made it an age issue. Well here is a thought….maybe he’s taking heat because, I don’t know…he has not won in a decade!
Something tells me they would care that he’s 80 if he’s still winning like Paterno. And no mark may, he’s not bigger than the program. Yes he built it and yes he deserves his statue but he should also admit he’s damaging the very thing he built by staying AND NOT WINNING.

Lou is a fucking moron. Of course you change the game plan. After a bad concussion like that one, he’s much more prone to further brain injury for quite a while.
Changing to a running game less dependent on the FB-in-a-QB body also makes the transition to Brantley easier if Tebow is lost for the year.
