Rather than focus on how snaps counts have been divvied up, which is pretty standard at this point in the season, I’d rather focus on some personnel issues that cropped up in this game in part because of who was playing and why. Offense Kirk Cousins: 69 Jake Matthews: 69 Matthew Bergeron: 69 Ryan Neuzil: […]
The San Francisco 49ers pulled off a 26-8 victory over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, improving to 9-4 and getting within a half-game of the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC West. It was a quality win for the 49ers, who faced a feisty Browns defense led by star pass rusher Myles Garrett. As a […]
Week 14 is here, and the Chicago Bears are sitting atop the NFC. Meanwhile, the Green Bay Packers are within striking distance with a showdown between the two at Lambeau Field looming. Elsewhere, the Detroit Lions are trying to right the ship, and the Minnesota Vikings look like a sinking ship. Here’s a look at the week that was in the NFC North. Nov 28, 2025; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams (18) celebrates after the game against the Philadel...
The Las Vegas Raiders extended P AJ Cole this off-season and chose to delay their extension for kicker Daniel Carlson who was coming off a rather down season where he converted 34 of 40 field goals good for 85% with 23/25 on PATs. This season, Carlson is just 15/19 (78.9%) not counting a missed FG […]
The Chargers got a much-needed win on Sunday against the Raiders which will provide a semblance of cushion in regards to their playoff chances. Now, they face a five-game gauntlet to end the year. Their next opponent, the Philadelphia Eagles, are coming off back-to-back losses to both the Cowboys and Bears. It’d be a smart […]
The Detroit Lions have started the injury evaluation clock on veteran tight end Shane Zylstra, who returned to practice on Monday. Zylstra suffered an ankle injury during the team’s Week 2 game against the Chicago Bears and has been on injured reserve since. For most of the year, the Lions were able to get by […]
The Los Angeles Chargers are facing the final stretch of their schedule, a five-week gauntlet that will ultimately decide whether or not they return to the playoffs.

Despite a crushing loss to the Bengals on Thanksgiving, the Ravens are still favored by several forecasters to win the AFC North and make the playoffs. Here are the current divisional standings: The Ravens and the Steelers have yet to play, so the head-to-head tiebreaker does not yet apply. They share the same in-division record […]

A pair of Chicago Bears standouts are feeling the love at the ballot box as the first wave of votes for the upcoming Pro Bowl Games votes crash onto the shores. Left guard Joe Thuney and safety Kevin Byard are the leading vote-getters at their respective positions. This isn’t a development I would have seen coming after the Bears’ 0-2 start. But, as you might expect, winning 9 of 10 games, going a perfect 5-0 in November, and starting December atop the NFC North while holding the No. 1 se...
The Minnesota Vikings went into Seattle to face the Seahawks, and it couldn’t have gone much worse. I won’t say it can’t get worse—because we all know it always can—but that was ugly. It was the first time the Vikings had been shut out since November 11, 2007. Max Brosmer got his chance to start, […]
The Winnipeg Jets were able to end their 4 game losing streak and end the month of November with a win over the Nashville Predators.

If you were hoping to catch the action, I hope that you have a Prime membership or know a good streaming site. Both the Jets ( 13-11-0 ) and Sabres ( 10-11-4 ) are coming into action on one ga...
Everyone has an opinion. It’s the quarterback. It’s the offensive coordinator. It’s the playcalling. It’s the plays themselves. It’s the head coach. It’s the running back. It’s the offensive line. It’s the run game coordinator. It’s the wind. It’s early December and no one has even begun Christmas shopping yet. Spend any time online to […]
Commanders links Articles The Athletic (paywall) The Commanders went for the win and lost, but it reminded them of who they were, and could be again Of course you go for two. You do it 100 times out of 100, and certainly you do it where the Washington Commanders are, their season tattered and torn. […]
If you didn’t know any better, you’d think Ben Johnson and the Chicago Bears were fighting for a Wild Card berth, not currently owning the No. 1 seed in the NFC. And that’s exactly the way he wants it. When asked by reporters about the Bears sitting atop the NFC after their win on Black […]
On Monday, the NFL announced the initial counts of the fan vote for the 2026 Pro Bowl Games. Green Bay Packers fans are voting early and often, based on the early returns. So far, 15 different Packers players rank among the top 10 in their individual positions, including one player making the cut at multiple […]
The sign of a good team is making bad teams look bad. The San Francisco 49ers are turning the corner defensively, while on offense, they’re figuring out ways to funnel their passing attack through their star tight end. Against the Cleveland Browns, Brock Purdy had his best game, while the pass rush looked as good […]
Just two weeks ago, the Cowboys came out of their bye and notched an emotional win over the Raiders on the road. That improved their record to 4-5-1 and improved their odds of reaching the playoffs to a meager 10%. Since then, they’ve ripped off wins against the last two Super Bowl champions in the […]
Kimani Vidal ended Week 13 as the Chargers’ highest-graded player (min. 20 snaps) after rushing for 126 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries. On the other side, Khalil Mack was the defense’s highest-graded player after notching a half sack and overall helping keep Geno Smith in hell for 60 minutes of football. It was […]
The Eagles are 8-4 and still lead the NFC East, but things are not going well in Philadelphia and fans are not very confident in this team figuring it out anytime soon. After the embarrassment that was a loss to the Bears on Black Friday, Eagles fans are more dejected than any other point of […]
On RadioEstadio Noche (Onda Cero), Santiago Segurola criticized the scheduling situation that will keep Real Madrid away from the Bernabeu for more than a month. Coming off three consecutive league draws and the loss of their lead atop La Liga, Segurola argued that the disruption matters more than the club is willing to admit. “The […]
For a long time, the story around Matthew Stafford’s Pro Bowl history has been that there isn’t one. A quarterback who some are saying belongs in the Hall of Fame, Stafford has only been named to the Pro Bowl twice in the first 16 seasons of his career. Agree with that or not, think the […]
The Carolina Panthers gained a signature upset win yesterday against the Los Angeles Rams. It is hard to understate how big of a deal it is for them to be playing meaningful football in the month of December instead of just talking about the upcoming NFL Draft. Head coach Dave Canales and quarterback Bryce Young […]
