Young showed off the skills that made him the No. 2 pick in the draft, logging six tackles, a sack, two pass deflections, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery and 47-yard return for… Source link

I probably won’t pick the Titans to win the AFC when the playoffs begin. The Chiefs are a generational juggernaut, and the undefeated Steelers have a loaded roster. But I’ll certainly give Tennessee a puncher’s chance against anyone. This is a tough, nasty, confident football team, well-coached and afraid of no one. When you see them on the schedule, you know you’re getting a three-hour physical challenge. The Titans punched Indianapolis in the mouth from the opening snap Sunday and… Source link

If you thought the Big Ten was a mess a few weeks ago, things have gotten even crazier since then. Ohio State, the conference’s main contender for the College Football Playoff, is undefeated but now in danger of missing the Big Ten title game due to a COVID-19 outbreak. The Buckeyes already missed a game against Maryland because of virus issues with the Terps, and now OSU had to cancel its game against Illinois this weekend because of its own positive tests, including one for head coach… Source link
