Summary

Colin reacts to the Bears' massive comeback to beat the Packers, the Rams thrilling 34-31 win over the Panthers & Indiana’s win over Oregon in the CFP.

He starts with the Bears recovering from a terrible first half to beat the Packers and points to the lack of a run game and consistent pass protection leading to the Packers downfall. He gives Caleb Williams credit for making some incredible throws and playing “John Elway” level ball in the fourth quarter (3:30).

He moves to the Rams win over the Panthers and points to shaky special teams for the Rams, the Panthers big bodied receivers, and some reckless throws by Matthew Stafford as reasons the underdog Panthers were able to put a scare into the Rams. He explains why he never had a doubt the Rams would come back to take the lead on their final drive (20:45).

Finally, he breaks down Indiana’s drubbing of Oregon in the College Football Playoff semi-final and offers high praise for Curt Cignetti’s coaching & explains why IU quarterback Fernando Mendoza will work at the NFL level (30:30).
