In the New York Jets’ eighth game of the 2025 season, on a cool, partly cloudy autumn afternoon in Cincinnati, Ohio, the Jets beat the Cincinnati Bengals, 39 – 38 in a wild back and forth contest. The first half saw the Jets offense show some life, but the Jets defense fail miserably on the […]

The Cleveland Browns are heading into their bye week, so now would be an ideal time to make the move at quarterback from Dillon Gabriel to Shedeur Sanders. This would give Sanders the bye week to prepare and get ready to face off against the New York Jets. Should the Browns choose to make this […]
Growing pains. Growing pains. Growing pains. That’s what I have to keep telling myself after Bears games like this. Having said that, this one sucked. Lack of execution in all three phases. Poorly timed mistakes. Brutal special teams effort. It felt like a game like this was overdue after a few tight wins against bad teams. Baltimore’s record is bad, but they’re a good team, even without Lamar Jackson. They made the Bears pay for their sloppiness today. Bears Instant Grades Offe...

Back home at Gillette Stadium, it was a tale of two half the New England Patriots against the Cleveland Browns. Behind three first-half sacks by Myles Garrett and another slow defensive start, New England took just a 9-7 lead into the locker room. But, Drake Maye and Co. took over in the second half as […]
The Cleveland Browns had a nice start to the game offensively, but it was all downhill from there. And while the defense held strong for a half, things unraveled in the third quarter for a variety of reasons. Before you knew it, a close game was a 30-7 rout heading into the final quarter of […]

For two completely separate reasons, the general sense was that both the Chicago Bears and Baltimore Ravens needed to win this game to keep long-term playoff hopes alive. On Sunday, Baltimore proved to be the hungrier team. Lamar Jackson didn’t suit up for the Ravens, but their offense was still able to have their way […]
I said repeatedly this week that this was a game the Falcons couldn’t afford to lose. That had very little to do with big picture standings and upcoming schedules, though obviously those mattered to, and much more to do with how bad the Dolphins had looked thus far in 2025. If they got right against […]
The Miami Dolphins entered Week 8 with a 1-6 record and a sense of doom surrounding everyone on the team. The hot seat underneath head coach Mike McDaniel had never been hotter, and the calls for a change were incessant. A team in disarray headed into Georgia to face the Atlanta Falcons. The team that […]

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Indianapolis Colts are hoping to sign starting quarterback Daniel Jones to a long-term contract extension at year-end: The fact that the Colts are hoping to keep Indianapolis for the foreseeable future is hardly surprising given that he’s been one of the catalysts to their remarkable 2025 turnaround. While […]
To the outside viewer, Saturday’s Patriot League contest between Lehigh and Fordham may not have been much to watch. The Mountain Hawks kept on rolling through their undefeated season, easily dispatching the Rams 27-6. Fordham is now 1-7 and has no hope of reaching the playoffs this year. All of that, though, can take a […]
