Seahawks Super Bowl Spotlight: Mike Macdonald Chasing History, Sam Darnold Chasing Redemption
Every Super Bowl has its obvious storylines. The star quarterback chasing a legacy. The established coach trying to add another ring. The matchup we’ve been circling for two weeks, dissected from every possible angle. Seattle’s path to Santa Clara offers something rarer. A chance to rewrite modern NFL history on one sideline, while completing one of the league’s most unlikely quarterback arcs on the field. Start with Mike Macdonald, because what’s at stake for the Seahawks’ head coac...
Landon Slaggert Continues to Provide Quality Depth, Intriguing Offensive Upside
I’m doing a little digging as we get ready for three weeks without NHL games to discuss, and something got my attention that I thought I would share before the Blackhawks play their last game before the Olympic break. Landon Slaggert is actually generating a surprising amount of offensive chances for the Blackhawks this season. According to Natural Stat Trick , here are your top five Blackhawks in individual scoring chances for per 60 minutes of ice time (at 5-on-5) since the start of Jan...
Around the NFL: Broncos Promote Davis Webb, Titans Hire Gus Bradley, Robert Kraft Snubbed, More
The Denver Broncos filled their offensive coordinator vacancy Monday by promoting quarterbacks coach and pass game coordinator Davis Webb into the role. Broncos Promote Davis Webb to Offensive Coordinator Webb replaces Joe Lombardi, who was fired two days after Denver’s 10–7 loss to the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship Game. The move was a critical retention for the Broncos, as Webb had drawn significant interest around the league during this hiring cycle. Denver als...

Old Friends in the News, Offensive Coordinator Watch, Puka Nacua on Caleb Williams, and Other Bears Bullets
Day 16 of the Chicago Bears offseason. In quiet moments this time of year, I think about the only time I’ve ever seen my favorite team in the Super Bowl was at a Super Bowl party that I didn’t even really want to attend. I’m not sure what I’d do if the Bears made a Super Bowl now. But I know I wouldn’t go to a party I have no interest attending. And now, I’m wondering if people actually like Super Bowl parties. It’s been a busy morning at BN Bears. We can begin with Chicago’s search for...

Are the Bulls Getting Desperate for a Superstar? And is Zion Williamson That Guy?
Count with me, just two days to go until the trade deadline. And with it comes all the allure and perceived value of expiring contracts that the Chicago Bulls are suddenly boasting. The desperation is starting to seep through, and as a result, the calls for Zion Williamson are getting louder. According to Joe Cowley, the Bulls recently made another call to the Pelicans, expressing interest in former No. 1 overall pick Zion Williamson. Chicago has reportedly been in consistent contact with...

“Realistic Landing Spot” for KAT? Will Šarić Have a Role? Milwaukee Business Trip, and Other Bulls Bullets
Is it just me, or does that bad loss start to taste a little sweeter when the trade deadline is this close? The Chicago Bulls have a golden opportunity tonight to add to my happiness—and their misery—by dropping another game, this time against a Central Division rival, the Milwaukee Bucks. With the Charlotte Hornets hot on the Bulls tail, suddenly playing some of their best basketball of the season, the reality of Chicago missing the play-in is very real. And somehow, that hope gets ...
Chicago Bears 7-Round Mock Draft: 1.0
The Senior Bowl is officially in the books, which means the first true checkpoint of the 2026 NFL Draft cycle is behind us, and with it comes the first Chicago Bears mock draft of the offseason. As always, the annual reminder applies: this is an exploratory exercise, not a prediction. It’s February 3. As I wrote last week, Chicago’s roster picture will look very different once decisions are made on expiring contracts and the Bears begin navigating free agency in March. Needs, priorities, ...
“Checking Line” Offense, Bedard vs Celebrini, Trade Buzz, Trotz Retires, and Other Blackhawks Bullets
The Blackhawks were loud in the room after their big 6-3 win last night. Ryan Donato had a career year and got a nice extension, but he’s struggled to find the back of the net consistently as his role has changed. He had a four-point night. Ilya Mikheyev continues to be a standout defensively for the Blackhawks and his name is floating in trade rumors. He, too, had a four-point night. Their line, with Jason Dickinson , combined to put up 10 points last night — while spending a good amount...

Still Waiting on Pitchers, the Cardinals’ Big Haul, Market Impact, and Other Cubs Bullets
I hope you’re having a swell Tuesday morning … Pitchers and catchers for some clubs will start reporting, officially, to Spring Training sites in exactly one week. That doesn’t mark any kind of hard cut-off for signings and trades, but if you’re a free agent pitcher, in particular, it does seem like you might be eager to get something done so that you can arrive with your fellow pitchers and catchers on a normal schedule with your new team. Which is to say, for that group of moves, spec...
