It’s been a weird week. The Super Bowl is set. The Senior Bowl is this weekend. And yet, I still haven’t really entered “offseason” mode as a writer who covers the Chicago Bears.
Chicago playing meaningful football into mid-January has thrown off my internal clock. Heck, I didn’t even realize the Senior Bowl was this week until Luis Medina brought it up in our weekly meeting on Tuesday.
That said, I’ve got to start fleshing out my Bears thoughts. I’m going to dump some here today, an...
Super Bowl LIX delivered a clear betting result for anyone focused on the point spread.
The Philadelphia Eagles not only won the game outright, they covered the spread with room to spare.
Sportsbooks installed the Kansas City Chiefs as slight favorites leading into kickoff. Most closing lines had Kansas City laying around two points. When the final whistle blew, the Eagles walked away with a convincing victory and rewarded anyone who backed them against the number.
If you bet th...
The Steelers have reportedly added another name to their 2026 coaching staff, with Cowboys beat writer Clarence Hill Jr. posting Thursday that Pittsburgh has hired Dallas assistant offensive line coach Ramon Chinyoung as the team’s next running backs coach. Chinyoung will be filling the role previously held by Eddie Faulkner in Pittsburgh. Chinyoung got his […]
The 49ers face a number of dilemmas this offseason, with the situation at the wide receiver position chief among them. Once a clear strong point of their roster, the 49ers’ receiving corps is a shadow of what it once was. Brandon Aiyuk has played his last snap as a 49er and the same could soon […]

Chicago Bears fans don’t need any more proof that Ben Johnson is the perfect coach for this team. But I’m sure you won’t say no to some more. ESPN’s Bill Barnwell put together his rankings of the best head-coaching hires of the last five years—a total of 37 overall. And guess who has already cracked […]
Wednesday was a strange one for Juventus. They entered the final game of the Champions League league phase with an outside chance at making it to the top eight, but also stood to lose some ground in the playoff draw should they lose. Do you go gung ho to win, or do you set the […]
New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel shared that defensive coordinator Terrell Williams will travel with the team to Santa Clara for the Super Bowl. “He’s doing good,” Vrabel said. “He’s excited about traveling with us, I appreciate you asking.

Robert Saleh had his introductory press conference as the head coach of the Tennessee Titans today. He declined to get too much into what he would do differently in his second stint as a head coach, but did say that the full list is really long. One thing he did point out is that he […]
The matchup for Super Bowl LX is set, and it will feature a familiar pairing of opponents: this year’s NFL title game will be a rematch of Super Bowl XLIX between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks. In preparation for the game on Sunday, Feb. 8, we have longtime NFL writer and SB […]

Pagan is coming off his seventh season as the wide receivers coach for the Villanova Wildcats after two years as an offensive assistant at the school.

While DJ Moore might be polarizing to some Chicago Bears fans, it sure sounds like he has the support of his position coach — which is probably more important in the grand scheme of things.
In an interview with WGN’s Jarrett Payton, Bears WRs Coach Antwaan Randle El disussed a variety of topics. One thing that stood out from the chat session was Randle El coming to the defense of one of DJ Moore. You’ll want to check out the whole thing on your own time because I found the conversation to...
As Bills Mafia well understands, the Buffalo Bills have their man, ultimately promoting offensive coordinator Joe Brady to head coach after a thorough search that involved nine worthy candidates. Brady climbs into the hot seat as a familiar face and name with fans and the current team alike, having spent the previous two and a […]
“We’re getting a dawg in Joe Brady. [Be] ready to run through a motherfucker’s face.” Several Buffalo Bills players were in attendance for Joe Brady’s introduction as head coach. Josh Allen sat in the front row along with tight end Dalton Kincaid and offensive tackle Spencer Brown with Max Hairston behind them. Several players were […]

Thus far, McCarthy has hired Patrick Graham as defensive coordinator, James Campen as his offensive line coach, and Adam Henry as wide receivers coach. Additionally, McCarthy […]
The Dallas Cowboys are doing something different with Christian Parker. Parker is young. He is an outsider (in terms of not having a history with the Cowboys front office). It sounds silly, but Parker comes from a team that has been highly successful and the Cowboys have not exactly tried to pick fruit from those […]
The Detroit Lions have reportedly signed free agent tight end Thomas Gordon to a futures deal, per Aaron Wilson. Last year, Gordon spent some of the 2025 season—his rookie year—with the Chicago Bears. He signed with the team in August, didn’t make their 53-man roster, signed to the practice squad in December, and was not […]

This game had it all. A […]
The Miami Dolphins head coach had a chance to say Tua Tagovailoa's name when discussing the team's QB situation. He didn't.
It seems as though our coordinators are going to stay in place, meaning that the only dog we have in a fight until new free agents are available, is the ability to re-sign our own guys before they hit the market. This could be rather tough in some cases, as many agents will make sure […]

The San Francisco 49ers need to add to their wide receiver room with the departure of Brandon Aiyuk and potentially Jauan Jennings, and there are concerns over Ricky Pearsall’s durability to last a full season in the NFL. To begin the season in Seattle, Marquez Valdez-Scantling and Russell Gage took meaningful snaps at receiver. In […]
In the middle of the season, when the Bears were on a roll, I had some fun and put out an AI-generated image of Ben Johnson on Mount Rushmore with George Halas, Mike Ditka, and Lovie Smith, and declared that he was already the Bears’ fourth-greatest coach in team history. Most fans rolled their eyes […]
