The Return of Tom Brady

As I analyzed the mechanics of the once all-pro quarterback, who started off slow vs. a weak Bills defense, I noticed a few things. When Brady was injured by a hit to his knee, he had stepped up in the pocket. In the game Monday night, Brady didn't step up into the pocket when the outside rush came. I wasn't sure if he didn't realize the space, or he didn't feel comfortable going into the space. The trademark of Wes Welker was horrible on Monday night, as he dropped many passes while a screen was being set up, which didn't exactly help Brady. Moss dropped a few passes, and my primary reason for concern for the Pats is their mechanics. Many times in those dropped pass situations, the wide out started to run before they got the ball. I am also curious to see how the defense does without Richard Seymour and Tedy Bruschi.

USC-Ohio State

There is a lot of hype building up to the Buckeyes and Trojans game tonight. A lot of times the hype is for nothing, but I think this game will be great, and that is why I will be watching it myself. My prediction to win is Ohio State. When Matt Barkley can prove how good he is, that's when they beat the Buckeyes. Terelle Pryor is super athletic, as a good arm, and can run the ball if he wishes, so a sophomore quarterback vs a freshman quarterback? I think it is obvious that the Buckeyes get the victory tonight. Matt Barkley could have 300+ yards and 3 TD's and still lose. Defense will be the X factor, and a Freshman Quarterback doesn't seem like the best idea in a big game like this. I also have an immense amount of confidence in Terelle Pryor. Pete Caroll is the best coach in college football, but coaching isn't everything, especially in the beginning of the season. Upset? No. But definitely a learning experience for the Trojans.

Cal Golden Bears

The Pac-10 is probably one of the best conferences in the NCAA. Teams like USC, UCLA, and Cal themselves have dominated for years and years. In the NFL, defense wins championships, but down in college, its offense. Last year Florida won, with a good defense, but more importantly, explosive players like Percy Harvin and Tim Tebow. This year, I think Jahvid Best and the Golden Bears have a good shot to win the PAC-10. I respect USC. I consider them the best in the PAC-10, but now it seems like there is some contention. If all the great things about Freshman Matt Barkley are true, then Cal will be definitely finished, but you must have your doubts. Expect Barkley to have an OK year, and next year be the elite college quarterback he can be. Getting back to Cal, I think that they are so good because of their offensive line. This allows Best to do his best, haha yea I know isn't that funny. Anyways, look for the Golden Bears to be a dark horse in the Race for the PAC-10 championship. I never made it clear who I predict to win the BCS National Championship bowl game. Lets just say it has something to do with this article...

NFL Predictions

Today I shall gather the records of every team in the NFL. I will predict a super bowl champ. When it gets to the playoffs i will also pick a champ from the teams still left. Last year I picked the Steelers in the 13th week. I just realised that Defense wins championships, and offense gets you there. They have the offense, and the dominating defense. But, I didn't pick the Cardinals. Who actually did? Anyways, my predicts so on were analysed for many hours by myself. If you have any comments about it, post a comment.
