Kyler Murray had announced in January that he was going to College Football 25 Coins participate in into the 2019 College Football 25 Draft, but it became evident on Thursday that he's really serious about the idea. The Heisman Trophy winner was mentioned as a player on College Football 25's released list of 337 players that will participate in this year's College Football 25 Combine.
Murray is the Oakland Athletics' top pick in the 2018 MLB Draft and has been considering whether to play either football or baseball professionally. The A's are set to begin field players' spring training on Feb. 15 but Murray will play with the other players in Indianapolis at the College Football 25 Combine two weeks later.
Murray will be one of 17 quarterbacks to be selected at the College Football 25 Combine, together with Dwayne Haskins and Drew Lock -- the two other quarterbacks that were selected in the first round of Dan Kadar's latest mock draft.
That was a lot of fun, wasn't it? Super Wild Card Weekend was a very similar experience to Wild Card Weekend ... however, it was SUPER! Everything is more fun when you add "Super" into it. Check out: Mario Bros., Nintendo man, bowl. Sorry, I'm unable to keep up with this fakery. This was all an attempt to make money for College Football 25 to make more money, so congratulations I suppose.
We absolutely didn't have to watch the Buccaneers take on to the Eagles or the Chiefs topple the Steelers in a three hour broadcasting tribute towards Ben Roethlisberger -- but we did, and it was easily the most boring part over the course of the week.
In reality, there isn't always enough. The weekend's four games was already perfectly arranged. The two NFC, two AFC harmony was in place and it was wonderful. Then we're pushing the whole thing into Monday, with an unbalanced 3 game Sunday. I am aware that raging against the machine isn't an effective undertaking, but I'm just hoping that the players will see some value when they sign the next CBA of being put at risk for an additional week of regular season and an extra playoff game.
Let's not waste the time to think about why this weekend went down instead focus on the amazing stuff that happened.
There were a number of big winners at quarterback this week however none was more so in the league than Josh Allen. Beyond the impressive stats, it was far more about the statement Allen said on the weekend more than anything else.
Do not get me wrong, normally I abhor this idea of the term "statement games." One of these buzz-word sports phrases we cook up for the sake of telling stories, but do not really reflect the reality of the athletes playing the game. They don't have any concern about "statements," they operate to win, go on then repeat.
But the glare of Bills vs. Patriots is massive. The game is huge in the regular season and huge in the playoffsincluding an extra wild card. This is a rivalry formed in a furnace and first ignited due to the frustration of the past that saw the Bills having to finish second. A year ago we were talking about the change in power in the division as it moved to Buffalo and then the shift shifted to the other side in 2021 when it became clear New England was far from dead.
For while it seemed that the Bills were headed back to wait for their turn. The Patriots surged along with Mac Jones midseason as the Bills were struggling, and then Buffalo came back, with Mac Jones, while New England regressed. The playoffs were the game a toss-up. The door was shut on the very first day.
Buffalo did not only beat the Patriots the Patriots, they destroyed them -- and it was due to Allen's perfect game. These kinds of games are the reason the Bills believed so strongly in extending Allen's contract the last offseason with a huge contract. If you are able to CFB 25 Coins beat the Patriots at home in the playoffs it's the most definitive sign that things are changing.
