After losing another game this season, the New Orleans Saints could have moved up a bit in the draft order. Instead, luck was not on their side, and the team is still currently set to select at pick 5. The 2026 Prospects There may not be a bigger riser in the 2026 draft than Ohio […]
Down 2–0 early in Montreal, the Rangers showed the kind of resolve that defines good teams—and the kind of response last year’s group couldn’t find.
For the fourth straight week, Sunday football kicks off with an NFL International Series game—this week featuring the Los Angeles Rams (4-2) and Jacksonville Jaguars (4-2). This will be the third and final NFL game played in England during the 2025 season. Jacksonville has played 13 international games in the last 18 years (this will […]
That’s right, we’ve got another game in Europe. The NFL’s latest trip to London sees the Los Angeles Rams as the “road team” versus the Jacksonville Jaguars, who lost to the Seattle Seahawks last week. We need to see the Jaguars beat the Rams, much in the way the Jags beat the San Francisco 49ers […]
Illinois has only traveled to the west coast once since the Pac-12 schools joined the Big Ten, and we don’t need to relive that tragedy in Eugene. The Illini find themselves in Seattle next week, and the fine people at FanDuel don’t like their chances. Illinois (5-2, 2-2 Big Ten) opened on Sunday as a […]
Hello everyone, and welcome to the Week 7 Minnesota Vikings roundtable here at Daily Norseman. The Vikes are coming off the bye week following two weeks across the pond, and now will turn their efforts toward the Philadelphia Eagles in a battle of teams searching for their identities. Can the Vikings lead the Eagles to […]
As much as we decried yesterday’s loss to Inter Milan as a fait accompli, we have to give credit where it’s due: Roma kept last year’s Champions League finalists under control for most of the game. After giving up a goal that initially seemed like a total defensive breakdown, Roma bounced back, matching the Nerazzurri […]
The "A Tale of Two Expansion Teams" series continues with part three, this time focusing on how each team built their blueline. See what blueline building philosophies each front office has and showed by how they built their blueline.
On its surface, the idea of the Edmonton Oilers being a team that struggles to score is a laughable one. They have perennial 100-point man Connor McDavid. One of the best goal scorers in the league in Leon Drasiatil. A premier offensive defenceman in Evan Bouchard. A jack-of-all-trades Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, who at his peak a…
According to The Athletic, the Twins have talked to famed SLUGGGRRR Nick Punto about the Twins’ open managerial position. Among various other folks. Punto’s currently an infield coach for the Padres; he’s originally from Southern California. (Oddly, his career OBP and SLG are both .323). Now, in a way, I don’t really care who they […]
It’s a pivotal offseason for the Phillies that lies ahead. They need to make at least some changes to their roster in the hopes they can get past the Dodgers and the other teams in the National League to play in a World Series. The options in front of them are difficult, yet varied. They […]
The Seattle Mariners lead the ALCS three games to two over Toronto. They’ve also out-homered the Blue Jays 11-7 so far in the series. A total of 18 balls have left the field in five games, but you wouldn’t really know that if you listened to the broadcast. It seems the only thing the Jays […]
The article title may upset some of you who feel that Willson Contreras has been treated exactly as he should. I will say that I am probably one of the biggest Contreras and supporters of him on the Cardinals, but it was not always that way. As a Cardinals fan in the Chicagoland area, anything […]
In the photo above, two defensive ends who once played for the Dallas Cowboys have since become defensive factors on their respective teams. Over his first two seasons with the Washington Commanders, Dorance Armstrong has 10.5 sacks. Since 1982, that ranks as the tenth most in franchise history for any defensive lineman during their first […]
Good morning! Hopefully you’re up, or remembered to check your fantasy football lineup if you have anyone from either of the teams playing in London this morning. The Jacksonville Jaguars are hosting the Los Angeles Rams at Wembley Stadium in the fourth game of the NFL International Series for the 2025-26 season. The Los Angeles […]
Let’s check in with the results of this week’s SB Nation Reacts survey. Each week we ask Jets fans for their confidence level in the team’s direction. As one might imagine, an 0-6 start has the confidence rating quite low. I have been surprised to date that the weekly confidence ratings have been as high […]
We’re hitting that time of year where sports start to overlap. The fall sports are deep as they approach the end of their regular seasons, and the winter sports are gearing up to get going. We even had some baseball this past week. So you’d be excused if not everything that came out this week […]
Newcastle United fell to a 2–1 defeat at Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday, extending their winless run at the Amex Stadium and exposing the never-ending shortcomings the team is experiencing this season on offense. Danny Welbeck’s brace, either side of Nick Woltemade’s equalizer, handed Brighton their third win of the season — all against […]
London is calling, so the Los Angeles Rams have traveled across the Atlantic Ocean to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars for a 9:30am ET start time in Week 7 of the NFL season. With two 4-2 teams facing off, this is expected to be a good game with plenty of potential implications for the NFC […]
Coming out of the first international break of the season, Juventus provided us with one of the most thrilling domestic games we’ve seen in a good amount of time. A seven-goal thriller, last month’s Derby d’Italia win was a comeback in which Juve showed some promising fight under circumstances that we certainly don’t see every […]
In the 1980’s Europeans and other international players began to migrate to the NBA. Guys like Detlef Schrempf, Vlade Divac and Šarūnas Marčiulionis began to leave strong impressions. Dražen Petrović and Toni Kukoč were not far behind and soon European players, along with Latin Americans, began to carve out a significant niche. Today, in many ways, […]
Ten Fourteen Eighteen B1G Things The Rundown He done did it again: Minnesota 24, Nebraska 6 P.J. Fleck seems to know a thing or two about beating Nebraska. Or seven. BigRed_Twice: Nebraska is simply not that good. They aren’t bad, really, but they definitely aren’t good. Raiola makes moments of magic, but there are enough […]
Mike McCoy is planning on simplifying the offense for Cam Ward, according to Adam Schefter. The Tennessee Titans’ interim coach plans to focus on the things that Ward does well and maximize those. That feels like a really smart first move for him to make. It sounds like Brian Callahan tried to throw everything at […]
For the fourth consecutive week, the NFL has a quadrupleheader this week, thanks to a game in Europe. This morning, the league gets underway from London once again with the Jacksonville Jaguars hosting the Los Angeles Rams at Wembley Stadium. That game looks like one of the better matchups on paper that fans in Europe […]
Meet the Mets It is possible that the Detroit Tigers may make ace Tarik Skubal available in trade this winter and if they do, the Mets would be among the chief suitors. According to scouts and executives that spoke to John Harper of SNY, trading Skubal would be a tough sell in Detroit, which will […]
