2024 NFL Draft: Deion Sanders blasts media, critics for 'ridiculous' analysis of QB Michael Penix Jr.
cbssports.com/college-football/news/2024-nfl-draft-deion-sanders-blasts-media-critics-for-ridiculous-analysis-of-qb-michael-penix-jr/
Quick Glance: Deion Sanders Criticizes Media and Critics for 'Ridiculous' Analysis of QB Michael Penix Jr.
- The coach of the Colorado team, Deion Sanders, is convinced that the former Washington quarterback, Michael Penix Jr., is not receiving enough attention as the 2024 NFL Draft approaches. On Wednesday, Sanders expressed a passionate message of support for Penix, just one day before the draft commences in Detroit.
- Despite concerns about age and injuries, Penix is ranked 30th in the CBS Sports NFL Draft Prospect Rankings and is the fifth quarterback in the hierarchy behind Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels, and J.J. McCarthy. This placement still includes Penix in discussions for the first round.
- The only 'average game' Sanders is likely referring to would be the College Football Playoff National Championship game last year, where Washington lost 34-13 to Michigan. In that game, the left-handed passer completed 27 of 51 passes for 251 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions, marking an unremarkable end to an incredible two-year run with the Huskies.
- Penix secured the second spot in the Heisman Trophy voting, leading in passing yards with 4,903 in 2023, and threw 36 touchdown passes while leading Washington to the Pac-12 title. Penix's 25-3 record as a starter for the Huskies is legendary for a team that had a 4-8 record the year before his arrival.

The Lions are cautious in securing their core long-term while carefully selecting external players and avoiding extending contracts to every player.
- In addition to St. Brown, other Lions players may also receive long-term contract extensions. The organization aims to keep their core intact and focus on long-term success, while carefully selecting and evaluating external players.

Quick Glance: Jamal Murray Leads Denver Nuggets to Impressive Victory over LA Lakers
- Jamal Murray achieved an impressive 15-foot buzzer-beater over Anthony Davis to complete a sensational 20-point comeback and give the Denver Nuggets a 101-99 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. This unexpected triumph grants the defending champions a 2-0 lead in the first round, as they now prepare for the upcoming games in the Lakers' arena.
- Following the game-winning shot, Jamal Murray fell into the Nuggets' bench and was embraced by his teammates, igniting the atmosphere in the Ball Arena. Murray faced a challenging start in the game, hitting only three of his first 16 shots before going 6-for-8 in the fourth quarter, scoring 14 of his total 20 points, including the decisive basket.
- While Murray encountered difficulties, the Nuggets stayed competitive thanks to another outstanding performance by Nikola Jokić, who recorded 27 points, 20 rebounds, 10 assists, and two steals. Michael Porter Jr. also played a crucial role in the Nuggets' victory with 22 points, including successful shooting from beyond the arc.
- The Lakers expressed dissatisfaction with the officiating, particularly regarding a play in the third quarter where a foul against Porter Jr. on D'Angelo Russell was overturned after a review by the Nuggets. It is evident that the Lakers' prospects are increasingly dim after losing 10 consecutive games against the Nuggets. A monumental shift in fate will be required for Los Angeles to progress to the next round.
