He carried Browning as far as he could. Absolutely showed up (against NFL DB’s) in the conference title game despite Jack’s best efforts to throw a pick six. Burned Adoree. Just didn’t have what it takes to elevate Browning to competent against that Alabama defense. I don’t blame Ross for that.PostGameOrangeSlices said:

John Ross and Penix would be fire -
Ross fumbled away desperately needed points against Bama.HillsboroDuck said:

Id take McMillan -
I think our two guys now are better than Pettis and almost as good as Ross, but not quite. Ross was a true game breaker. That speed played at the college level.PostGameOrangeSlices said:

Pettis was good in different ways than our current guys. He was unreal on kick returnRoadDawg55 said:

The catch Ross made in the CCG won me over. It may have even looked crazier in person, but it encapsulated how he saved Brownsox’s bacon on a regular basis.
Ross made his QB better than he was.
