Twitter flip-flopped like crazy over Josh Rosen during epic comeback
One of the craziest games in recent memory went down in the UCLA-Texas A&M contest on Sunday, with the Bruins emerging victorious thanks to Josh Rosen's monster night.
The star quarterback threw for 491 yards and four touchdowns as the Bruins registered the second-largest comeback in FBS history, erasing a 34-point deficit to score the dramatic win.

Despite Rosen's obvious talents, UCLA has struggled to win many games with him under center, causing many to question whether he should be a top pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
That chatter has never been louder than it was when Texas A&M was racing to a 44-10 lead.
Before the comeback
So thru 1st weekend of college FB, Sam Darnold, Josh Allen and Josh Rosen all look like ... the draft class of QBs overrated, as usual.

Josh Rosen might want to consider shutting down his college career after today; only going to hurt his draft stock behind this makeshift OL

So we can all agree Josh Rosen is the most overrated Quarterback in college football right?

Josh Rosen is trash. Jets and 49ers are in trouble if they were thinking about taking a QB in next years draft.

Context: Josh Allen at Wyoming & Josh Rosen at UCLA don't have much 2 work with. They won't post huge numbers vs top competition this yr

After 34 unanswered points capped by Rosen's fake spike in the dying minutes for the go-ahead touchdown, the reaction on Twitter was very different.
Craziest. Game. Ever. #Rosen

Josh Rosen takes the early lead for the Heisman. What a performance in the fourth quarter. Unbelievable!

Do Jets fans have a tanking hashtag for Rosen?

And now the Jets are going to spend all season falling behind 44-10 to prove to Josh Rosen how well he'll fit there.

A friendly reminder that a football game is 60 minutes long, and with teenagers deciding the majority of the action, it's probably best to wait until it's over to make judgments.
