Colorado coach Deion Sanders is trying to stay positive after the Buffaloes absorbed their first loss of the season Saturday, getting blown out by Oregon. The Buffaloes (3-1) waded into the deeper end of the Big 12 pool, and without two-way star Travis Hunter, were outplayed by the Ducks.
It was noted in commentary that Sanders' son, Shadeur, Colorado's quarterback, is suffering from a lack of offensive line protection, having absorbed dozens of hits already in 4 games. Giants fans know all about that, as the O-line has been a problem for Big Blue for years.

"Here's another fine mess you've gotten me into!"---Oliver Hardy to Stan Laurel.
Sean Payton had to have known what he was getting into when he was hired to replace Nathaniel Hackett as Denver's head coach. Hackett, now with the Jests, is still catching heat, but we'll address that shortly. The Broncos were completely outclassed in a 70-20 drubbing at the hands of Miami.
The 1st place Miami Dolphins.
The 70 points is the highest point total in an NFL game since Washington dropped 72 on the Giants in 1966.
============================================
There are three things inevitable to Jests fans. Death, taxes, and losing to New England.
The Patriots picked up their first win Sunday, 15-10, clinching the game with a safety in the 4th quarter.
Unsurprisingly, fans are calling for ownership to cut bait on coach Robert Saleh and the aforementioned Hackett, neither of whom can see the forest for the trees with 3rd year QB Zach Wilson, but Saleh is standing by his QB. Talk about deer in the headlights.
And it won't get any better for the Jests. Next up is the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs in primetime next Sunday. Calling it now. Another stink bomb vs. Patrick Mahomes and company, and Saleh is likely gone-ski. Suddenly, that overtime win 2 weeks ago over Buffalo is a distant memory, and we know the Bills will collect the receipt later in the season.
===========================================
When baseball season started, fans in New York salivated over the prospect of seeing model Kate Upton at Citi Field whenever her husband, Justin Verlander, pitched. Verlander was traded two months ago back to Houston, but come October 1, another instant gate attraction will likely distract Jests fans.
Of course, that would be singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, who was in KC on Sunday, in a skybox with the mother of her rumored new beau, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Last I checked, Taylor still maintains a home in New York, so........!
=============================================
Kelce, by the way, has joined Patrick Mahomes and coach Andy Reid in doing State Farm commercials this season. Apparently, the insurance company finally parted company with Aaron Rodgers.
