Miami has fallen; Broncos buck back; Bama/Georgia back on top; Dodgers put brooms to asses on the Brewers
The Denver Broncos completed one of the most historic fourth quarter comebacks you'll ever see. Meanwhile the Dolphins continue to tear apart at the seems. In college football, kings stay kings in the SEC, Napier ousted, and Kelly might have his contract ripped up next. In MLB, the NLCS is a wrap after the Dodgers made light work of the Brewers behind Ohtani's historic performance and the Blue Jays push the ALCS to game 7.
15 WEEKEND HEADLINES. 15 BOTTOM LINE THOUGHTS. 15 WORDS OR LESS.
Top Story
#2 Miami stunned in first loss after 24-21 loss to unranked Louisville behind all-time slop performance, including four interceptions, from Carson Beck. Beck’s Heisman odds fall from +360 to +5000.
1) Beck threw away (literally) any chance of winning the Heisman. Georgia Carson Beck showed up.

NFL
The Denver Broncos score 33 fourth quarter points after being shutout the first three quarters. Bo Nix scores four TDs to defeat the New York Giants 33-32 after three lead changes in two minutes.
2) Skattebo has no regard for human life. Nix put the team on his damn back.
The Broncos gave us the greatest 4th quarter comeback we’ve ever seen.

Hurts heard the haters blaming him for the Eagles struggles and proceeded to put up a perfect passer rating in 28-22 win over Vikings. Carson Wentz revenge game falls short.
3) Shocker what happens when your offense force feeds the law firm of Smith and Brown.
Jalen Hurts is the first player this season to have a game with a perfect passer rating.

Stafford buckets five TD passes without Puka to take out the Jags 35-7 to thwart Travis Hunter’s breakout game on offense.
4) Stafford is flicking leather like he’s in his prime. These Rams are a problem.
Tua slings back to back three interception games to keep the Dolphins contenders for the first overall pick. Browns add fuel to the Miami dumpster fire in 31-6 blowout and Tua now averaging 1.6 TD passes per game since his extension.
5) Tua is tracking to be a backup and McDaniels is an utterly incapable head coach.
Bears are winners of four straight after taking out the Saints 26-14 behind 222 yards on the ground.
6) The Bears offense finding a way without Caleb Williams contributing many touchdowns lately is something.
Packers let another bad team hang around in a dog fight to the very end but Micah Parsons sets career high with three sacks in 27-23 win against the Cardinals.
7) The Packers offense looks like it has a defensive coach calling the plays. Parsons dominated.
Micah Parsons 3 SCK, 4 TFL, 5 QBH, 10 PRSH, 5 TKL vs ARZ Today.

Drake Maye sets Patriots record for single game completion percentage (91.3%) and yet again strengthens his MVP candidacy. Patriots take down Titans 31-13
8) Maye has entered the “violently good at throwing footballs” tier of quarterbacks.
Drake Maye's 39-yard TD pass to Kayshon Boutte traveled 52.6 yards in the air, Maye's 2nd of the season over 50 yards by air distance.
Maye is the only QB this season with multiple TD passes that traveled over 50 yards in the air.

NCAA
Georgia and Bama firmly back to top dogs in the SEC after handling #5 Ole Miss and #11 Tennessee. Stockton and Simpson combine for six touchdown passes and zero INTs to take down the two teams closest to taking out the kings.
9) Blood is in the water with NIL building other programs. For now, kings stay kings.
Alabama has as more wins against ranked opponents in the last month than every other school in the country has all season.

Arizona State knocks off #7 Texas Tech 26-22 to get head coach Kenny Dillingham his first victory against a top 10 team.
10) Hell of a bounce back performance after getting blown out a game earlier.
Vanderbilt continues to flex its muscle in the SEC, winning 31-24 to hand #10 LSU their second straight loss versus ranked SEC opponents. Brian Kelly doing very little to turn the heat down on his seat.
11) LSU’s offense is fifth grade level stuff. Vandy’s QB Pavia plays some damn gritty ball.
Brian Kelly falls to 5-10 against ranked opponents at LSU.

Florida fires Billy Napier to increase the fired coaches buyout fee to $70 million between him and James Franklin.
12) Another coach who couldn’t beat the best and has not developed a talented QB.
#15 BYU takes out #23 Utah to stay unbeaten despite Utah putting up 100 more yards in the game.
13) Classic case of the winner of the turnover battle tends to win the war.
MLB
Ohtani’s historic performance with three taters and 10 strikeouts seals the deal on a four game sweep of the Brewers in the NLCS. Dodgers pitching keeps Brewers almost entirely off the board all series
14) Hey folks. This Shohei guy is the greatest player of all time. That simple.
Major League Baseball has been around since 1876. Around 250,000 MLB games have been played.
And last night, Shohei Ohtani likely played the best game of all time.
