  1. And just to "appreciate" the Fact that just One decade ago, this photo could not have happened. Today (last night), in ONE game, between two of the 32 NFL teams, we had FIVE players who know that the NFL is just their day job (a very lucrative and hard earned "day job") but in the end "Once a Duck....Always a Duck! And that very program that helped make them the men and players they are today, is proving its ability to send Duck brothers to the NFL. What a great way to show it to all the "future" Duck brothers. 🦆🏈🪨's
  2. OREGON 43-13 2 TO 4 SKS 253 YDS Pass GO QUACKERS!!!!
  3. Uncle Phil? Is that you? 😆
  4. Oh it's going to be a "wonderous" season. I fully appreciate the high level of football entertainment, year in and year out, that OBD provide. We are a fortunate fanbase! GO DUCKS!
  5. Agreed. Not only at the quality starters and rotation players during the first half but also the minimal drop off In intensity and execution by the players (whom most I did not recognize the names of) into the fourth quarter. Might have been able to start an "all freshman" unit and still would have been competitive. If this level of depth and player passion continues as the season progresses...well let's just say the possibilities are promising. Now on to game two. Beatdown time for some 'pokes. GO DUCKS!
  6. Gosh Darn It All. Charles gives us permission to vent and the Ducks oblige by giving us Nuthin' to Jerk about.....WAIT A MINUTE! We lost two yards on that last play of the game! FIRE D. Lanning now before we get too deep into the season!!!!!!! QUACK!
  7. GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY! GAME DAY!
  8. OH MY GOD! IT IS, FINALLY, GAMEDAY!!! GO DUCKS! 🦆🏈🪨's
  9. 33-13 DUCKS! 3 T.O. 3 SACKS 213 YDS PASSING See a run heavy game with "safe" passing plays for the QB's that get to play. Fairly vanilla offense with the focus on execution. See how much pressure the reloaded Duck Defense can exert at all three levels. GO DUCKKKKS!
  10. Hmmmmm. Big and Beefy Trench Monsters. No doubt it will take the offensive line 2-3 games to gel and establish communication on a rebuilt offensive line. The talent level of these players will help hide any early season....shortcomings. But by the time we trip out to Happy Valley I have confidence that Coach Terry and company will have them ballin at an elite and dominating level of play. Remember that not only this coaching staff, but NFL-lite coaches across the country are still adapting and adjusting to high player turnover due to the wild, wild West of the transfer portal. (Well except Clemson maybe...lol). No matter where you get your players from and how you tend to utilize them in your football scheme, they still need to learn how to work as a "team" to maximize their inherent abilities to the fullest potential. Thats where the "coaching" comes into play. I believe that both our offensive and defensive line play may actually surprise a lot of sports pundits as the season progresses. But then again...I'm just a hopelessly devoted fan(atic) of OBD so what the hell do I know, Not filtered through that fandom! 🤪. Go Ducks!
  11. It will be interesting to see how/if Tosh continues in his "growth" as the Ducks DC. He has definitely shown growth from his days in (California?) and Jacksonville, but still seemed out coached by his college football nemesis, Chip Kelly last year in the playoffs. Defense being D.Lannings "cup o tea" and the fact that he himself seems to have a lot of confidence in Tosh as his DC since bringing him in four years ago, gives me hope that they are both on the same page, defensively, and are creating one of the more dominantly consistent defenses in all of NFL-lite football. However if future games arise that Tosh seems to be a "day late and a step behind" the game plan of the opposing offense, with no clear in-game adjustments to counter, then it would not surprise me to see some interest in taking our DC in a different direction. D. Lanning will NOT wait forever for his vision of dominating defense, year in and year out, to become reality. Here's hoping Tosh has continued his progression as OBD's defensive coordinator. It can only bode well for OBD this year and into the future. Go Ducks (T-minus 3 days, 5ish hours)! QUACK! 🦆🏈🪨's
  12. Mega corps are goin' to "megacorp". Us lowly "data points" are just that and not truly part of the overall equation as long as they can get more of the dinero'. Sad to see but nothing will change anytime soon, so we are all along for the ride. One way or another I will partake in watching and cheering OBD to their first Natty...even if I have to "slog" through the accessibility BS. Go Quackers (t-minus 4days/4hours)
  13. Kinda get the "Stacey" vibe from this one. Good Luck with that.
  14. Oregon Wins 42-37 2 T.O. 3 Sacks 324 Yds Pass.
  15. Oregon played Iowa St in a Fiesta Bowl??? Must have missed it from having triple secret probation Covid. Did we win? 😆
  16. Eeehhh. What's Up CFP? Where be all da' dollars goin'? 🤔 SSHHHHH....Be very, very quiet. We be hunting "profits". Heheheheheh. 😉
  17. WHEN Oregon Wins the National Title Playoffs, this Man will be pivotal in that success. Outside of his on field control and mastery of the QB position, This shows even more reasons why Gabriel Deserves the Heisman. Please let me be pleasantly surprised https://athlonsports.com/college/oregon-ducks/one-social-media-post-tells-you-everything-you-need-to-know-about-dillon-gabriel
  18. If Evan (and his agent) are truly testing the NFL market for his talents, that can Only be a Good thing for OBD over the next three games. Evan will be 'ballin his butt off" to help elevate and cement his value for the draft, if these are indeed his last three games as a Duck. Loved his response and want to see him live up to it. Evan helps us win the Natty I will personally drive him to the ESPN draft day extravaganza while wearing my Duck gear, head to toe! Let's GO Ducks!
  19. Absolutely LOVED this Man and the intensity he brings to the field. So happy for him that he has a football championship and with a whole lot more to go. Wish all of our walkons had his heart and intensity. Congrats Dude. You earned it!
  20. Gabriel Absolutely Earned his way to NY. I do believe Bo's "body of work" was more impressive, but Bo had two years here, compared to Gabe's single season. I would love to be pleasantly surprised to see Gabe walk off with the hardware but the simple matter of fact is that the Oregon Ducks Football team is exactly that, TEAM. We do not need to depend on one or two players to "carry" our team to the successes OBD has achieved. I congratulate Gabe on being the Team leader he is and want to see him close out his career with a Natty. I think Gabe would prefer that "group" success over an individual award with no championship in the end. Just glad to see OBD players getting the proper recognition they deserve. Gabriel and his fellow Duck brethren Rock! Go Ducks!
  21. Ok. Let me see if I have this correct. Oregon, on its way to the B1G title, beat the two National Championship teams from 2023, beat the "traditional" top three teams in the B1G (Michigan / Ohio St / Penn St., plus an always annoying Wisconsin team), and now are slated to the possibilty of beating the three top teams in the SEC (Tennessee / Texas / Georgia), if the bracket plays out as "expected". So, when this comes to pass, in the end we would have played, and beaten, 6 of the top 10 ranked teams and 7 of the top 25 ranked teams when we hoist that (1st) National Championship Trophy! No B1G or SEC champion has EVER had a gauntlet such as this on the way to their "championships"! Again, OBD will Have to be viewed as the Greatest, most tested, NFL-lite Champion of ALL times! And after twenty-five years of near misses to a "Natty", achieving one in such a way would be...historical! I am SO here for it all! GO DUCKS! 🏆🦆🏈
  22. Ahhh Yesss. I believe those unavailable "strength of" metrics may be the the SOB (BlueBlood) and SOP (Profit). Which in the current committee based selection process likely supercedes SOS or SOR! Don't matter. Line em up and dem Ducks will knock em down! Go Quackers!
  23. The next three games for OBD are the "bowling pins". OBD is the "bowling ball"! Three strikes in the "tenth" (ok...14th, 15th, 16th) for the (National Championship) WIN! 🦆🏈🪨's
