This NFL season has seen the emergence of some young Ohio State football players through the first quarter of the season. Some young guys have come out and crushed what expectations were set for them, while a few other Buckeyes who are veterans got back on track with their play.

Emeka Egbuka is one guy who keeps taking over games. He has done a phenomenal job as a rookie, becoming the best offensive player that the Buccaneers have. He was at it again, scoring a 77-yard touchdown for the Bucs and finishing the game with four catches for 101 yards and that touchdown.

His former teammate Chris Olave finally got back on track this week. He had the only Saints touchdown in a loss, but still had three catches for 20 yards to go along with that score. It's clear that he is the best offensive weapon that a bad Saints team has.

Rookie running back Quinshon Judkins has already turned into the best offensive player that the Browns have. In a losing effort to the Lions, he carried the ball 21 times for 82 yards and a score. He also caught four passes for 33 yards, showing that he is a versatile player for them.

His teammate Denzel Ward was also able to get an interception in this game. The former Buckeye cornerback has always been able to play really well when he's been healthy, but his health has been the big issue.

Former Buckeye quarterback C.J. Stroud was finally able to get his team back on track and got a win. Stroud and the Texans took down the Titans and won 26-0. Stroud finished the game 22/28 for 233 yards and two touchdowns while running for his life behind a terrible offensive line.

All of these Buckeyes were able to play well this week. Some were able to get wins, while others were trying their best to get some wins. Regardless, Ohio State showed that it produces the best pros of anyone in college football.
