The Pittsburgh Steelers defense had to make some on-the-fly adjustments in the lead-up to their Week 9 win over the Indianapolis Colts. With Miles Killebrew, Chuck Clark, Juan Thornhill, and DeShon Elliott all out of the lineup, the Steelers moved cornerback Jalen Ramsey back to safety, and it turned out to be a great move. […]
Hello. We are back for another edition of pro and con regarding one of the Pittsburgh Penguins youngest players. A couple of weeks ago we looked into the pros and cons of keeping both Ben Kindel and Harrison Brunicke in the NHL this season beyond nine games, and Kindel made that decision pretty easy for […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers have long been rumored to be interested in trading for Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers. However, the 1,000-yard receiver will not end up in a Steelers uniform. Instead, the Raiders have shipped him to the Jacksonville Jaguars. “Raiders are trading WR Jakobi Meyers to the Jacksonville Jaguars in exchange for […]
The Chargers moved to 6-3 with a 27-20 win over the Titans in Week Nine.

The Utica Comets finally won their first game of the season. Prospects Lenni Hameenaho and Shane LaChance remain pointless. Comets Win It took until Game 8 of the AHL season, but the Utica Comets have finally won their first game with a 3-1 victory over the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins on Saturday night. This followed another shutout […]
Brett de Geus certainly gets around. Since being drafted in 2017, Brett de Geus has spent time with nine different organizations, including two stints with the Miami Marlins. He started the year with the Blue Jays (who had claimed him off waivers in September), but they sold him to the Pirates, with whom he opened […]
Stock Up Laiatu Latu The breakout year continues for Latu, who had his first career multi-sack game, a tackle for loss, and six stops in the running game. He is slowly becoming one of the best overall edge rushers in the NFL, and his production under Anarumo has been impressive. First time in quite some […]
The Indianapolis Colts came back down to Earth in Week 9 against the Pittsburgh Steelers after a blistering, league-best 7-1 start to the season. Long story short, the Colts were simply outmatched over the course of four quarters, but is it enough to warrant hitting the panic button? The players don’t believe so. Quite frankly, […]
One of the most positive aspects of the Pittsburgh Penguins’ Monday night collapse against the Toronto Maple Leafs was what looked like another step forward in the development of rookie forward Ben Kindel. Kindel finished the night with two goals in the Penguins’ first multi-goal game by a teenager since Olli Maatta in 2014. That’s […]
Former Pittsburgh Pirate Ke’Bryan Hayes was named the 2025 National League Gold Glove Defender at third base, making this the second time in his career that he has received the award. Though Hayes’ game is by no means complete, it certainly seems to me that given his talents, the Pirates should not have traded him […]
Happy Tuesday! It’s also Nov. 4, which means NFL teams have until 4 p.m. EST to make any remaining trades this season. Given the occasion, it calls for an all-too-obvious question: Should the Steelers be active at the trade deadline? It’s a question we’ve asked a few times on this site already, but given that […]
Channeling the spirit of the Toronto Blue Jays, the Pittsburgh Penguins lead 3-0 through 40 minutes of hockey but fell apart in the third period on their way to a 4-3 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs last evening. On the bright side, Ben Kindel continues to impress with his first career multi-goal game, scoring […]
There are many storylines emerging early in this Maple Leafs season, but one of the main ones is that they haven’t been able to string good games together consecutively.

Craig Berube addressed the media after his team’s come-from-behind 4-3 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins, which improved the Maple Leafs’ record to 7-5-1. On the level of frustration with the team’s 3-0 deficit after 40 minutes: I didn’t think the first period was that bad, but we made a mistake on the first goal. The […]

Pregame The Penguins start out with the same lineup as last game, save the goalie rotation. The lines wouldn’t last this way for long.

It’s pretty clear at this point that the Green Bay Packers will let their outside cornerback battle continue until a clear victor has been named. After the Pittsburgh Steelers game, head coach Matt LaFleur said that the team will consider all options, including moving Keisean Nixon out of a full-time role. While we haven’t seen […]
After the last two games, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur has tried to downplay the quad injury that kicker Brandon McManus has dealt with this season. McManus missed two games with the quad issue, but returned to the field against the Pittsburgh Steelers two weekends ago. Since returning to the field, he’s missed […]

The Steelers’ defense was the butt of many a joke after two consecutive losses in which they gave up over 900 yards of offense and surrendered 68 points. However, they washed a lot of that stink off with a tremendous performance over the NFL’s No. 1 offense. Pittsburgh forced six takeaways against the Indianapolis Colts […]
Daniel Jones and the Indianapolis Colts had a Sunday to forget as turnovers highlighted the affair. For a quarterback that took good care of the ball and moved the offense with ease over the course of the season, the pressure that Pittsburgh’s front created was too much as he fumbled and allowed balls to be […]
The Los Angeles Chargers are hoping to stay in the win column as they welcome the Pittsburgh Steelers for Week 10.
