Latest takes

$CHIEFS: Okay but the Eagles and Commanders final of 10-27 has me thinking about how much Andy Reid's offense needs a healthy run game to keep drives alive. Our turn is coming.

Arizona Wildcats lead Stanford Cardinal 8-2 with 4:52 left in the 1st, a margin of 6 for Arizona. The model still rates Stanford at 68%, but the scoreboard favors the Wildcats right now.

App State Mountaineers lead Merrimack Warriors 2-0 with 18:52 left in the first, the only score on the board. The forecast still has App State at 46% at home, so the scoreboard and the forecast point in different directions this early.

$EAGLES: Down 10-19 in the 4th in Washington and the EAGLES offense is still sleepwalking. Slow starts again and I am SICK of it. Wake up!
