They have a great shot. The Bills are very banged up, it's in Denver, and the Broncos defense is incredible. Bo hasn't made many mistakes this year and his game management should lead them to a win.

He can become the second QB ever drafted by the Broncos to win a playoff game.

Exhibit A: Brandon Finney

Not who I thought would go to Kentucky. Oregon Ducks On SIOregon Transfer Quarterback Could Join Forces With Former...Oregon quarterback signee Bryson Beaver surprised Ducks fans on Wednesday with his decision to enter the transfer portal before the start of his college career.

Seaton is visiting Mississippi State right now. His old OL coach, Phil Loadholdt is there. It’s looking like Lane and Mario are also going to make a big push for him. If Oregon loses out on him they’re still going to be in good hands according to Geoff Schwartz.

Hasn't the 2nd portal window been eliminated? Unless you're referring to the window for IU/Miami next week?

Jon, just like Brittany Spears, "Oops you did it again..." Another great article written for Our Beloved Duck Forum! Gee whiz I wish I could write as well as you. "Look at the gene pool! Me and 23 guarantee that Archie can’t fail!" Great humor and wordsmithing Jon! Thanks!

When I look out my window, Many teams to see. And when I look out my window, So many teams champs could be. That it’s strange, so strange… Must be The Season of The Which (1966 – Donovan – kind of) Those who had Miami, somnolent since 2001, versus Indiana, somnolent since 1887, playing for a championship on Monday night, ... The Season of The Which...

We need to get Seaton so bad. We'll be totally set on offense if we do. LB is gonna be a big weakness unless we can tamper, I mean convince some great ones to enter the 2nd portal window. DL has serious depth issues. The entire 2nd string left. Gone. Not sure how replace it, but if we don't, we'll get worn down and see big drop offs when the starters need a break.

It's amazing fans still haven't learned: if you build it, they will come. The more playoff spots the more competitive teams there are, the more the talent spreads out. NIL and the ROI is the mechanism that enables it. With the 4 team playoff only 3 teams truly had a chance to win it all. With the 12 team playoff roughly 8 truly have a shot. If you go to 16 teams, you will have 10-12 teams that could challenge for a title. if you have 24 teams you'll eventually get 15 teams that could challenge for a title any given year. Would that be exciting? Why do we have a top 25 to be ranked, to be relevant? Let's make it 24 and align it with the playoffs. It'll be great for the sport.

Remember when Masoli was something like a no star guy and beat everyone out for the starting job? Masoli had a strong fighter vibe. Beaver does not come across with that kind of confidence. Beaver should have thought it out before joining the Ducks. If he wasn't going to come to practice for a season and compete on the practice field, he should have committed elsewhere. Oregon has turned into a top 5 kind of program recently. They were there for a while under Chip Kelly and now they are back to that level. Oregon should be getting 5 star QBs to play for them. They just recently got three of them through the portal.

Things keep getting worse. Bittle in a boot and rolling one of those scooters now.

If the Playoff was at 16 teams this year--the SEC would have picked up even more teams in it, and the B1G would have had NO additional teams. You are depending on the Playoff Committee to NOT favor the SEC, and to give the Big-10 a fair shake?

https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/01/14/oregon-football-portal-targets-update-2026/88161363007/ Some names to keep an eye on.

As Chip Kelly once said....Every man thinks he can... "Light a charcoal fire without lighter fluid." "Drive to a distant location without GPS or directions." "Coach a football team."

My biggest disappointment was not seeing Luke Moga get on the field and run like Dennis Dixon. Not as a starter, but as a backup in package situations.

First order of the Day: What is the value of a conf championship game? In the case of Ohio St vs Indiana - it was huge, since they didn't play each other in the regular season. Same with Oregon vs Penn St last season. Second: How to keep the conf championships and still do the playoffs the right way? I would say to have 'wild card' games at about the same time. Would the losers of conf championship games be knocked out of playoffs? That would provide some real value. What about a duel bracket? Teams that play for conf championships and then the wild cards You would have the power 4 - 8 team bracket going down to 1 team, while playing a 8 team wildcard bracket, and then the winner of the two brackets play each other. Or put them together at the final 4. AND NO STINKING GROUP OF 5 AUTO QUALIFIERS. If they are good enough, they can get chosen.

Great, hope we shift away from the over-reliance on the short passing game and use both the awesome receivers and Moore's best ability.

He needs to be more aware of open downfield receivers and if he's going to hold the ball then RUN, 3 yards is better than a sack.

What was the 2nd thing? 😁🤔😉

I’m in the Hill Country outside San Antonio. Where are you in NE Texas?

Eh… I’m not overly concerned about Hampton as DC. Mehringer, on the other hand, is more of a wait-and-see situation… and probably a pray-and-hope one as well. His stop at Rutgers resulted in a 127th-ranked offense, though to be fair, that was back in 2016, which is nearly a decade ago, as mentioned. You’d like to think a coach can learn and evolve a lot over that span, and maybe he has. That said, his time at New Mexico as QB coach in 2021 is a much more recent data point, and that passing offense also finished 127th nationally, which is not a great look. It raises a fair question about how much of OBD’s offensive success this year can truly be attributed to Mehringer versus Stein and the talent and system already in place. I’m willing to give him the opportunity to prove it this season, but if the offense doesn’t show real progress, I think that becomes a pretty clear sign of what the future may hold.

"It shouldn't come as a huge surprise that Perich wanted to transfer to a program like Oregon. They play on a much bigger stage than a program like Minnesota..." So glad to be a Duck!

If ASmith jr. stays he could be your dual threat qb, in couple years. He could beat our Railoa, imo.

This is definitely something I've been noodling about (and everyone else should too). A ton of those guys are transfers from JMU where they've played under Cignetti's system for years. When they're gone, who's going to replace them? Curt can bring in other transfers but a 5 year veteran from another program, while a better option than a redshirt underclassman, just isn't the same as someone who's spent their entire collegiate career in the same system. I highly doubt the same magic is going to be there for Indiana next season, they better savor it now.
