That means wrapping up football.

Great weekend of football, both professional and college and we'll talk about the big shakeups in the world of college football a little later on in the program.

Let's start in the NFL. The marquee game turned out to be a marquee game, and Baltimore literally out did Pittsburgh in every category you can come up with, from yards to plays to everything but points because the one

category they led in was four turnovers by their quarterback Lamar Jackson. A great game, but

a referendum on whether he's ready for this against Pittsburgh. Yeah, Pittsburgh seems to have

Baltimore's number. What did we think of that yesterday? Mitch, we talked about this the other day. And I, you guys know how much I love Lamar Jackson.

How when the Ravens got him, I thought it was the steel. Blah, blah, blah, blah, okay?

there was one play in the fourth quarter where he simply dropped the ball in the open field and was

lucky enough to get it back. And if you're going to do that, Ralfusberger did hardly have the game

of his life yesterday, but I'm looking at interceptions, and you know what it says?
