By the schedule it looks like our easy stretch.
Hags and lambs ain't what they once were...and with CMC out and playoff hopes all but gone I expect injuries to build up for the niners as their guys start the off season early.
Carolina and the Pats have shown improvements...but at some point we just gotta show we are a better coached team with more talent than everyone thought.

So why a tough stretch? Simple... our playoffs have effectively started. While I'm a fan of Kyler Murray, the magic midget has yet to show that despite his stature he can in fact play big in big games.
I want the division banner. I want the playoffs.
But I want them because we won them. Not because someone else lost them.
THIS is meaningful games in December...play well and it turns in to meaningful games in January.
For the first time in a long time the Redbirds control their own destiny. All they have to do is beat the teams they are supposed to beat.

Not exactly like the Rams WC game...but very reminiscent of the games leading up to it.

He needs to stay for his senior season if he wants to be an NFL QB. He has talent but is still too naive.
Drew Allar right??
Dude is almost a Josh Allen clone... big boy.
I dunno...pick him up, give him the green bay packer treatment. We got the cap space to carry a rookie a season or two.

I mean, I'm a Penn State homer, so I'd take a mid-round shot on the guy. I just think he should go back to school for his senior year to get better.

On the flip side... I only watched half a game but I kinda like that QB for Penn State.
Think he will be there in the third?
Talk is Allar will return for his Senior year at PSU. Give him another year of seasoning in college and he will be a top ten pick so the Cardinals will have to give up some capital to get him.

They all should, lol...
But this is a weak class for QB... kid does well at the combine, hell..he could go first round.
Ewers is the top qb right now...

I agree, if for some reason Allar declares, I would swoop him up in the second round. I wouldn't take a chance on missing out on him by waiting until round 3 or 4. His stock could also rise significantly if he shows well in Indianapolis.
