Bears News Chicago Bears rookie running back Kyle Monangai recorded a season-high 94 yards from scrimmage and scored his first NFL touchdown in Sunday’s 26-14 victory over the New Orleans Saints at Soldier Field. The seventh-round draft pick out of Rutgers carried the ball 13 times for 81 yards and added two receptions for 13 […]
Saints News New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller will miss the remainder of the 2025 season after tearing his ACL during Sunday’s 26-14 loss to the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. The injury thrusts rookie Devin Neal into a larger role as the primary backup behind starter Alvin Kamara. Miller suffered the knee injury […]
Although I do believe that the Cubs should have plenty of reasons (and more than enough payroll space) to be aggressive in free agency this offseason, their intentions on that front aren’t particularly clear. That’s due in part to Jed Hoyer’s history of free agent passivity, as well as the new CBA negotiations and expected lockout. But there’s also the fact that the 2026 roster is already pretty full-up with potential starters: C – Carson Kelly/Miguel Amaya 1B – Michael Busch 2B – Ni...
Chicago Bulls basketball is two days away. Brace yourself. To celebrate opening week, the Bulls officially unveiled their 2025-26 City Edition uniforms ! Fans will have to wait until December to get an on-court look at the newest threads, but the initial photos have already won me over. I’ve been critical of some jersey designs in the past, and I’m still not sure the NBA should be forcing teams to roll out something new every year. With that being the case, I love that they kept this ye...
The hits keep on coming on the injury front as it is believed that New Orleans Saints Pro Bowl center Erik McCoy suffered a torn bicep in Sunday’s matchup against the Chicago Bears, per a report from Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo. An injury that which would sideline him for the rest of his seventh […]
The hits keep on coming on the injury front as it has now been confirmed by New Orleans Saints head coach Kellen Moore that Pro Bowl center Erik McCoy suffered a torn bicep in Sunday’s matchup against the Chicago Bears which will sideline him for the rest of his seventh professional campaign—one that got off […]
Tyler Bertuzzi’s first season with the Chicago Blackhawks was solid overall. Bertuzzi finished the season with 23 goals in 82 games, the second-highest goal total of his career and the first time he appeared in all 82 games. But that didn’t come without discussion about his consistency. As Scott Powers wrote for The Athletic back on March 23, Bertuzzi’s saw stretches last season where he “had zero goals and seven assists in 20 games. Before that, he had 12 goals and five assists in 20 gam...
Freddy Peralta has been an outstanding pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers for the past eight seasons, giving the Chicago Cubs fits along the way. He has become something of an anchor for the Brewers rotation, pitching like an ace in 2025, and is just 29 years old. So it’s high time for the Brewers to trade him. From The Athletic : “In this case, as the winter unfolds, the Brewers are expected to at least field offers for starting pitcher Freddy Peralta, according to people fami...
Per a report by Jordan Schultz, New Orleans Saints RB Kendre Miller suffered a torn ACL on Sunday against the Chicago Bears and will miss the remainder of the season. Miller injured his knee in the 1st quarter of game and after a brief trip to injury tent, he headed to the Saints locker room. […]
Per an initial report by Jordan Schultz which has now been confirmed by New Orleans Saints head coach Kellen Moore, RB Kendre Miller suffered a torn ACL on Sunday against the Chicago Bears and will miss the remainder of the season. Miller injured his knee in the 1st quarter of game and after a brief […]
The Arizona Fall League has now finished their second week and the Mesa Solar Sox won three and lost three over the past week. That gives them an overall record of 4-6, which puts them in fifth place in the six-team AFL. However, they’re just three games out of first and a game and a […]
The Chicago Bulls will begin the 2025-26 season without their leading scorer. The team officially announced on Monday morning that Coby White will remain sidelined with a calf strain. While he has resumed on-court activity, the team will look to re-evaluate him in two weeks. With the Bulls hosting their season-opener at the United Center on Tuesday, this puts White in line to miss at least their first six regular-season contests. It sounds as if the earliest he could return would be ...
It is the ninth year of Top Prospect voting at South Side Sox! First, let us review past years: To make sure we give the SSS readership a strong vote in our South Side Sox Top 100, we’re going to run five or 10 polls before kicking off our Top 100 Prospect countdown. Ideally, we […]
Here’s hoping National RBs Day becomes a thing in the future. If it does, then Chicago Bears fans will likely remember it fondly because of the contributions of running backs D’Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai in the team’s Week 7 victory against the New Orleans Saints. BEARS WEEK 7 WIN: Recap | Grades | Dennis Allen Appreciation | The Nightcap Are you unfamiliar with National Running Backs Day? It’s OK. I was unfamiliar with it until yesterday Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsw...
Chicago Cubs catching prospect Owen Ayers is on fire to start the Arizona Fall League season, getting plenty of attention for his feats. But Ayers is not the only Cubs positional prospect raking here at the start of the AFL season: Cubs No. 17 prospect Cole Mathis goes 454 feet for his first homer this Fall! It extends the lead for the Solar Sox, 9-4 pic.twitter.com/zYbKsIolTo — MLB's Arizona Fall League (@MLBazFallLeague) October 19, 2025 Cole Mathis, 22, was the Cubs sec...
It feels like at the end of each game, Chicago Bears fans collectively say, “It wasn’t pretty, but they got the win.”, and it’s hard to feel differently after Sunday’s fourth consecutive win at Soldier Field. At this point, a win is a win, but at some point soon, you’d like to see the Bears […]
The New Orleans Saints were back on the road when they visited the Chicago Bears on Sunday. Here’s a look at all that went down as the black and gold sought to find their first road win of the season. First Quarter The Bears were forced into a three-and-out on the game’s first possession, but […]
A lot has been made about this being the Chicago Bears’ first four-game winning streak since 2018, but did you know it was just the second time they’ve had four straight wins since 2012? That 2012 team was the final year of the Lovie Smith era, and this 26 to 14 win over the New […]
I’ve written on this topic previously, but now I’ve got some new information that I wanted to pass along to you. As you know if you attend Cubs games when there are promotional gate giveaways, the team limits those to the first 10,000 (or “up to” that number, as they generally say) who come to […]
The Blackhawks picked up an impressive win last night, closing a tough segment of their season. They opened the new year with seven games in 12 days, skating every other day for almost two full weeks. And many of those games were against teams projected to be in the mix for a playoff spot this year. For a team that supposedly has the worst roster in hockey that we’ve been told will be cleaning up confetti after another draft lottery party, coming out of that stretch of games with a 3-2-2 recor...
The run game and defense dominated in this one from start to finish, but plenty of noteworthy notes to discuss from yesterday’s win. Let’s get to it. Offense: Defense: Special Teams: What about you? What were some of your top takeaways from the win over the Saints?
Maybe it wasn’t a work of art, but the Chicago Bears found a way to win (by multiple scores) a total trap game in nasty conditions. That’s four straight wins for the first time in seven years. A random combination thought about the Cubs’ bullpen group that I want to keep in mind for the offseason. For the last several years running, two things have been true every single year. First, the Cubs find reclamation relievers who wind up being big contributors. Second, younger/newer guys who w...
Sunday afternoon was a rough one for the New Orleans Saints as they fell 26-14 to the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. Yesterday’s game was one of numbers for New Orleans: 1 missed field goal by Blake Grupe, 3 sacks by the Bears defense, 4 interceptions thrown by Spencer Rattler and an 8-game winning streak […]
The New Orleans Saints dropped to 1-6 after a dominant performance from the Dennis Allen-led Chicago Bears defense. Similar to the Saints’ other losses this season, the Saints were down two scores early and couldn’t rally back. While there were a few promising performances from players for New Orleans in the loss, it was a […]
After almost a whole month since playing at Soldier Field, the Chicago Bears faced the New Orleans Saints on Sunday and took home a win. The Bears now have a four-game winning streak for the first time since 2018. What’s more is that before today, the Bears had not beaten the Saints since 2008 under […]
