The Buffalo Bills are back at it this week, fresh off a much-needed bye in Week 7. Will that week of rest help the Bills re-calibrate their season after a two-game slide? Buffalo is still very much a force in the playoff hunt, but in recent weeks they’ve dropped from the one seed in the […]
The Meriam-Webster definition of adversity is “a state or instance of serious difficulty or misfortune”. That’s exactly what the ‘Cats were presented with against the then-ranked No. 8 Princeton Tigers just a week ago, when they suffered their first regular season loss in 785 days. A flawless season erased in a matter of 60 minutes. […]
Newcastle United suffered a brutal loss on Saturday, 2-1 at Brighton & Hove Albion. Their league season continues to be a slog, to say the least. Shifting from domestic affairs to continental competition, maybe the Geordies will fare better in the UEFA Champions League. Up next is a visit from Benfica, a side that really […]

The Colts are off to a tremendous 6-1 start and own the best record in the NFL after seven weeks, and a large reason is Braden Smith, who is in the final year of a $71 million contract extension as he anchors a solid offensive line… … wait a minute… Oh, this is about THAT […]
I’m sure many of you did a double take reading that headline. To answer some of the questions the title likely raised, yes, I have watched the Jets this season. I do understand the team has a glaring need at quarterback both immediately and in the long term. I have seen whichever successful young quarterback […]
Tuesday, Oct. 14 — Max Anderson homers On Monday, Max Anderson hit his first home run of the fall. He turned on a 95-mph fastball high and in for a 395-foot bomb — 26-degree launch angle and 104.5 mph off the bat! He also walked twice and scored a pair of runs while striking out […]
After an emotional Week 6 loss to Tampa Bay, the San Francisco 49ers returned to their winning ways with a 20-10 win on Sunday Night Football over the Atlanta Falcons. The win moves the 49ers to 5-2 in what was their most impressive win on the season so far. Defensive coordinator Robert Saleh had his […]
The No. 1 Wisconsin Badgers women’s hockey team shipped up to Schenectady, New York, for the first time since the Hilary Knight days back in 2007 to take part in the Ice Breaker Tournament, hosted by Union College. The Badgers barely broke a sweat, using a four-goal second period to beat Vermont by a score […]
The New England Patriots finally found success with their rushing attack against the Tennessee Titans rushing for a season-high 175 yards. But, that did not come behind a breakout performance by rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson. Instead, Henderson played a season-low nine snaps on Sunday and carried the ball just twice for five yards. “Just […]
It seems as if every week the discussion for who is in the QB1 conversation changes. Last week, it was Fernando Mendoza following a strong performance against Oregon. Garrett Nussmeier, LaNorris Sellers, and others have been in the conversation throughout the season as well. That inconsistency at quarterback could work in favor of the Los […]
Bears News Chicago Bears rookie running back Kyle Monangai recorded a season-high 94 yards from scrimmage and scored his first NFL touchdown in Sunday’s 26-14 victory over the New Orleans Saints at Soldier Field. The seventh-round draft pick out of Rutgers carried the ball 13 times for 81 yards and added two receptions for 13 […]
Right-hander Shelby Miller underwent elbow surgery last week, according to the club’s injury tracker at MLB.com. He had his ulnar collateral ligament and flexor tendon repaired in the operation and is likely to miss the 2026 season. The news doesn’t come as a surprise. Arm issues were a notable part of his 2025 season. With…
Of all their young players over the last half decade or so, the Washington Nationals have only extended one of them. That would be catcher Keibert Ruiz, who the Nationals gave an 8-year $50 million deal to before the 2023 season. However, just three years in, that deal looks like an anchor rather than an […]
Saints News New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller will miss the remainder of the 2025 season after tearing his ACL during Sunday’s 26-14 loss to the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. The injury thrusts rookie Devin Neal into a larger role as the primary backup behind starter Alvin Kamara. Miller suffered the knee injury […]
Once again, the rankings have switched up. Two ranked Big Ten teams were defeated (both on the road) while the conference now lays claim to the No. 1 and No. 2 rankings in the Week 9 AP Poll. There are three serious national championship contenders in the Big Ten, while the rest of it is […]
Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller played just 16 snaps for the Miami Dolphins on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns before exiting the game with a pectoral muscle injury. He did not return to play during that contest. On Monday afternoon, ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter released a report stating Waller avoided major injury and […]
It certainly wasn’t a pretty effort, but the snap counts wait for no man. Offense Michael Penix Jr.: 65 Jake Matthews: 65 Matthew Bergeron: 65 Ryan Neuzil: 65 Chris Lindstrom: 65 Elijah Wilkinson: 65 Drake London: 64 Bijan Robinson: 57 Darnell Mooney: 54 Kyle Pitts: 53 Charlie Woerner: 38 David Sills V: 29 Tyler Allgeier: […]
According to a report from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Kansas City Chiefs’ rookie defensive tackle Omarr Norman-Lott — who left Sunday’s 31-0 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders with a knee injury — has suffered a torn ACL. This will end his season. Taken with the 63rd overall selection in the second round of […]
The Buffalo Bills will have to make a late adjustment to their Week 8 pregame prep. Carolina Panthers starting quarterback Bryce Young is expected to miss next weekend’s game after suffering a high ankle sprain in Week 7. Veteran quarterback Andy Dalton is the next man up, and likely to see his first start of […]
The Dallas Cowboys week seven performance was one that would make Dan Quinn proud… if he wasn’t on the opposing sideline as the head coach of the Washington Commanders. The Cowboys turned back the clock in a way and won in snowballing fashion, putting up points with big plays in the passing game, capitalizing off […]
Once again, we examine the opening odds, and the Tennessee Titans are significant underdogs. At this point, it’s difficult to envision a scenario in which they would be favored in any game. About a month ago, I thought they might be favored when they play the New Orleans Saints — but I don’t think that […]
Things have been a little rough for the Edmonton Oilers, and it’s leading to diminished respect from those around the game. In the weekly NHL Power Rankings posted by Daily Faceoff, the Oilers are listed 11th among the 32 franchises in the league, a massive drop from third where the team was the week before. DFO’s…
Although I do believe that the Cubs should have plenty of reasons (and more than enough payroll space) to be aggressive in free agency this offseason, their intentions on that front aren’t particularly clear. That’s due in part to Jed Hoyer’s history of free agent passivity, as well as the new CBA negotiations and expected lockout.
But there’s also the fact that the 2026 roster is already pretty full-up with potential starters:
C – Carson Kelly/Miguel Amaya 1B – Michael Busch 2B – Ni...

Louisville football pulled off one of its biggest upsets in school history on Friday night, and it was a perfect blend of offensive brilliance and defensive playmaking. Jeff Brohm came in with a plan to confuse Miami with formations and personnel that he hadn’t used this season, while the defense started the game by making […]
