The Seattle Seahawks are in the thick of a tight divisional race and an NFC playoff picture that is far from decided. While we may have somewhat of a solid read on who the good teams are at this point in the season, there are statements still to be made in the run up to […]
The San Francisco 49ers have had horrific luck at MetLife Stadium throughout the years. That luck did not get any better on Sunday against the New York Giants. Head coach Kyle Shanahan believes the 49ers may have lost first-round pick Mykel Williams to a torn ACL. He said, “We’re worried it’s an ACL, but you […]
The New England Patriots did not play a clean game against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 9, but in the end they did just enough to survive with a final score of 24-23. Their sixth straight win improves their record to 7-2 on the year and keeps them well-positioned heading into the back half of […]
There was a lot to like in today’s game against the Denver Broncos, but so, SO much more to hate. I don’t even want to recap the Texans’ scoring drives because they relied, exclusively, on the Texans’ patented all-field goal offense. The defense came to play today. And, while the team came up short, they […]
In a game where defense was optional on both sides and no lead felt safe, it was Chicago Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland delivering the game-winning touchdown. This is how the Bears won their Week 9 game against the Cincinnati Bengals: COLSTON LOVELAND ARE YOU KIDDING? 📺: CBS pic.twitter.com/OMOzjsl6vC — Chicago Bears (@ChicagoBears) November 2, 2025 Colston Loveland’s 58-yard touchdown is one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever seen. And in a game that saw so ...
It was a barnburner from start to finish, but the Chicago Bears came away from Sunday with a 47-42 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, improving to 5-3 on the 2025 season. Both defenses failed to put together solid outings, while both offenses were tremendous in the showdown in Cincinnati. The Bears moved the ball consistently […]
The Las Vegas Raiders are hosting the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Here is everything to need to know about the game: First quarter The Jaguars got the ball at their 40 but couldn’t get a first down and were forced to punt to open the game. Ashton Jeanty had some nice runs, but the Raiders’ […]
On Sunday, the Minnesota Vikings were as big an underdog as they’ve been in the Kevin O’Connell era as they headed into Ford Field to face the Detroit Lions. And they showed a lot of what this fan base had hoped they would be all season long. J.J. McCarthy accounted for three touchdowns in his […]
The Green Bay Packers wore uniforms that evoked the 1923 version of their team on this windy Sunday when they took on the Carolina Panthers at Lambeau Field. Unfortunately, at times it looked like their game plan came from that era of football as well, and the team lost a brutal 16-13 decision at home. […]
A Hail Mary by QB Patrick Mahomes wasn’t enough to beat the Buffalo Bills at the end of the game. Bills defenders were all over the pass and, as the ball fell to the ground, Bills fans everywhere celebrated. Josh Allen played very well, James Cook did James Cook things and the defense was on […]
Meeting for the 10th time in six seasons — the first teams to do that since the Oakland Raiders and Pittsburgh Steelers battled for AFC supremacy from 1972 to 1977 — the (5-3) Kansas City Chiefs are on the road to face the (5-2) Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York. The […]
The Tennessee Titans were defeated 27-20 by the Los Angeles Chargers in Sunday’s Week 9 game at Nissan Stadium. The 1-8 Titans are still tied for the worst record in the NFL. We’ve conjured up five observations following yet another lopsided defeat. Chimere Dike is special Rookie wide receiver and special teams returner Chimere Dike […]
The Carolina Panthers defense suffocated the Packers offense in the red zone and their rookie kicker played the role of hero again. First Quarter Chandler Zavala marked his return to the lineup the best way he knows how—by committing a false start before the Panthers could get their first snap off. That put the offense […]
Stop me if you’ve heard this one: the Falcons blew it late in the fourth quarter against the Patriots, missing a game-tying PAT and shooting themselves in the foot on their final offensive series to lose 24-23. Kevin Knight and Allen Strk break down the loss, the puzzling decision to stick with Parker Romo, more […]
Bengals coach Zac Taylor just went full John Fox — and the end result was a Bears touchdown. Taylor threw a review flag hoping that Bears wideout DJ Moore fumbled the ball through the end zone. That would’ve given the Bengals the ball at the 20. At worse, I imagine the Cincy head coach thought it would be Bears ball at the 1-yard line as it was called on the field. Instead, this play goes down as a Chicago Bears touchdown: After review, DJ Moore crosses the goal line for a 17-yard ru...
The Falcons were expected to get blown off the field in this one by a surging Patriots team. Somehow, that didn’t happen, but the resulting game was still incredibly painful to watch, and still a loss. The Falcons couldn’t get going on offense early and struggled badly on defense in the first half before things […]
It was another terrible day of playcalling from the Tennessee Titans. They decided to go wildcat three different times, and it was a disaster each time. They also lined up and tried to run power with Tony Pollard behind the right side of the offensive line on 4th and goal from the one yard line. […]
The Los Angeles Chargers are heading home happy after a 27-20 win against the Tennessee Titans in Week 9 at Nissan Stadium. It wasn’t the prettiest win against one of the league’s worst teams, but the Chargers will take any victory they can get at this point in the season with a playoff chase on […]
The New England Patriots defense held off a late drive by the Falcons to help ice a 24-23 win. It was a fast start for the Patriots, who jumped out to a 21-7 lead in the first-half. But, a Drake Maye strip sack just before half time gifted Atlanta seven points. From that point out, New […]

The San Francisco 49ers gave up an opening drive touchdown, and the immediate thought was, “Here we go again.” The New York Giants marched 64 yards in ten plays that took just over four minutes off the clock to take an early 7-0 lead.
