Stock Up Daniel Jones Miss me with the game-manager tag, Daniel Jones is a legit franchise quarterback. He does everything within the Colts’ offense so well, hitting all parts of the field, and this time was finally accurate in the redzone, delivering a floater above a defensive linemen to MPJ to convert on 4th and […]
Game 7 of the 2025 ALCS gave us an instant classic. I hope the World Series can match that energy because nothing says autumn like checking in on high-drama baseball in the moments when I’m not obsessing about the Chicago Bears. Episode V of The Bleacher Nation Bears podcast is HERE! You can listen wherever you get your podcasts. Sure, that means Apple and Spotify for many of you. But you can also subscribe and follow on YouTube . In this week’s episode, we tackle Caleb Williams’ ba...
I’ve been writing for this site for going on five years now. I have been watching Houston Texans football since they beat Dallas 19-7. I have been watching Houston NFL football since the late 1970s. At no point did it ever feel like work. Last night did. A lot of it was a quick turnaround […]
Sorry, Matt LaFleur, this week’s game is at least a little bit about Aaron Rodgers. The Packers’ head coach can downplay the fact that the guy who won four MVPs and a Super Bowl with the Packers is now on the opposing sideline, but it doesn’t detract from the significance of the matchup. Rodgers is […]
There are six teams tied for the best record in the NFC at 5-2 and three of those franchises are in the NFC West. There are only three teams in the AFC who are 5-2 or better and only one team, the Colts, has a better record at 6-1. Is the NFC West as good […]
Brandon Graham is now officially back with the Philadelphia Eagles and the two-time Super Bowl champion talked about how his return from retirement came to be on his podcast “Brandon Graham Unblocked” for PHLY. You can check out the entire hour-long conversation with Bo Wulf but here’s a transcript of his initial answer: I really […]
Here is a look at how the Las Vegas Raiders’ rookie class fared in a 31-0 loss at the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7. Ashton Jeanty: The No. 6 overall draft pick was on the field for 63 percent of the Raiders’ snaps. This game got out of hand early, so the running game […]
Divine Deablo’s absence was keenly felt on Sunday night, as the defense struggled to stop the run and keep Christian McCaffrey under control through the air. McCaffrey’s monster game wasn’t all on JD Bertrand—not even close—but it seems fair to suggest he wouldn’t have taken over to that degree if not for Deablo exiting early […]
George Kittle had, until Sunday, played the role of spectator as the 49ers have made an impressive start to the 2025 season amid a catalogue of injuries to star players. He made his return in Week 7 to play a key role in a signature win arguably on a par with the Week 5 road […]
Matt LaFleur has come under fire in the last couple of years for some of his decision-making on 4th down. The Shanahan tree guys had always been more conservative on 4th down than I would have thought (given how forward-thinking they are about offensive football), but LaFleur seemed to buck that trend early on, only […]
Week eight featured the most anticipated game of the year as Boise State hosted UNLV. Could the Rebels get over the hump? Or would the Broncos make it known they are still the kings of the conference? There was also a key game in Logan that was essentially an elimination game for the Mountain West […]
The Detroit Lions righted the ship in another primetime matchup, toppling the NFC-leading Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Surrounded by a rowdy Ford Field crowd, the Lions secured a 24-9 victory on Monday Night Football. Pride of Detroit has all the coverage you could need, including a full recap from Jeremy Reisman, three takeaways from the game from […]
The Dallas Cowboys defense did their part on Sunday against Washington. It was awesome. Through the first six games of the season the defense was mostly a punchline, and in the viewpoint of just about every person, was the reason that the Cowboys did not have a better record. Unfortunately this was not hyperbole. Prior […]
The Minnesota Vikings were defeated at home by the Eagles 28-22. That doesn’t mean everything was bad. There were some solid performances on offense and defense. The team moved the ball effectively between the 20s. Here are a few players that stood out to me. Jordan Addison Addison has played well since returning from his […]
The history of the Raiders has been often complicated and adversely affected by officials. There have been numerous famous bad callas that have hurt the Raiders over the years. So, it’s no shock, that Raiders’ fans feel like the refs are out to get the team. Ad the numbers don’t lie. A recent study by […]
The Dolphins foundation for the future will be with the youth on their roster and it's time they start giving them playing time.
First things first, I want no part of any of these late kickoff games during the regular season. It’s bad enough that they have them during the preseason, we don’t need them when the games actually count. The way the Seattle Seahawks played against the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football didn’t help. Yes, Seattle […]
As if you needed another reason to lock into a television all day on Sunday, the NFL once again proved why they are king of the world during the fall and winter. If you’re a fan of exciting finishes, the Giants at Broncos was where it was at. Need a Thursday night barn burner to […]
The New Orleans Saints weren’t able to pull off the comeback against the Chicago Bears, falling 26-14 in Week 7 of the 2025 NFL season at Soldier Field. Here’s the biggest overreaction from this weekend’s matchup: It’s time for the Saints to replace Spencer Rattler with Tyler Shough. Look, I know what we saw from […]
Week 7 of the NFL season is in the books! After a dominant performance against the Raiders, Patrick Mahomes tops the NFL MVP odds through the first seven weeks. Josh Allen remains in the mix with the next closest odds, but several players are still very much in the running, including Dak Prescott of the Cowboys, who keeps putting up big numbers. Who will take home this year’s award? Here’s a look at the latest NFL MVP odds as we turn the page to Week 8. Sep 7, 2025; Orchard...

Together, Unrivaled Flag and FNA will further their shared ambition to […]
The Carolina Panthers managed to grind out one of the more ugly wins in recent history in a 13-6 victory over a wilting New York Jets team. Ugly wins still count the same in the win column, though – and the Panthers don’t seem to be in the business of collecting style points. While the […]
So, apparently, you can push the ball carrier forward, but you cannot pull them. In my decade of doing this, I was unaware this was even a rule until Sunday night when the 49ers solidified their 20-10 win over the Atlanta Falcons. If you push (READ: The Tush-Push), it’s fine—at least through 2025. If you […]
