2 more touchdowns from R. Winthrop III to Curtis Quarles, 36 in total. Target share explains some of it; the rest is the pair of them. They have played 3 games together this season alone. It is the simplest thing this offence does and the hardest to stop.

He has 3,916 yards from scrimmage in five seasons, and thirty-six touchdowns. He got to 996 once. Not this time.

Twenty-five, and Bellwether, Ohio before that. Ask anybody: he is the first man in the building most mornings. The route here: the son of a man who played eleven years at the same position.

The club is 3-0. Xavier Lockett is in year five of it.

One more thing: he answers every question in exactly one sentence.
