Iowa State has lost three games in a row just twice since Matt Campbell’s first year in Ames. A 5-game losing streak in the middle of 2022 and a 3-game skid to close out that same year when the Cyclones finished 4-8 overall and 1-8 in the Big 12. Could they avoid such a streak […]
The Buffalo Bills have what might be best described as an incomplete passing attack. You’d be hard-pressed to find anyone claiming the Bills have a no-doubt-about-it WR1.

Steelers fans are not taking the 35-25 loss to the Green Bay Packers well on Monday. That frustration extends to former players, where none might be taking it as hard as James Harrison.

The Tennessee Titans traded slot cornerback Roger McCreary to the Los Angeles Rams earlier today, which left Tennessee with a void at the position on its 53-man roster.

The Washington Nationals season was sunk by many things, but a poor pitching staff was the biggest culprit. They posted a 5.35 ERA as a team, the highest in franchise history. It will take a lot to fix that, including help from outside the organization. However, there is help on the way from a couple […]
Early in their Week 8 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, it looked like the Jets were on their way to a blowout loss. With just under five and a half minutes to go in the second quarter, Cincinnati led 17-3. The Jets faced a fourth and two on the Bengals 15. What followed was a […]
The San Francisco 49ers lost 26-15 in a maddening game against the Houston Texans. Turns out, not having Bryce Huff on a defense already running on fumes might make said defense worse. But it wasn’t all terrible. The defense did secure one significant milestone, specifically a turnover. But not just any turnover, an interception. The […]
Happy Monday one and all. The Arizona Cardinals sit at 2-5 after seven games, and coming off their bye week they get the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football. Should be fun. With the season nearly at the halfway mark, Jess and I thought taking a look at the season as a whole, giving out […]

Whew was that a close one! I’ll even throw a bit of confetti around about my personal prediction on the outcome of the game but note that it almost came true so there’s not as much crow to munch on. The story of the game was a bit of redemption, and a rescue of the […]
