Feature from @ROBWGRAY: Fate may be trying to tell oft-injured Daniel Jackson something. Or destiny could be sending him some not-so-subtle hints. But Jackson’s not buying any of it. "As long as I can play, man, I'm gonna play," Jackson said. cyclonefanatic.com/2025/07/isu-wr…

This was fun

Who won this week's 'Best Teams of the Matt Campbell Era' Draft between @JakeBrendTV and @DerekDuke25?
Mercy
Last season, Jontez Williams allowed a passer rating of just 19 when he was targeted. If the QB just spiked the ball every play, they would end up with a 39 passer rating. It was literally a better play to throw the ball directly into the ground than it was to throw at Jontez.
Looking forward to this guy decommitting from Oregon in two weeks
I can’t stop watching this.
