Offensive line play was one of the New England Patriots’ biggest issues in 2024, and a key area for the organization during the first offseason under new head coach Mike Vrabel. As part of the rebuilding process, the team invested two early draft picks up front. The first at No. 4 overall was spent on […]

The Chicago Bears will take their four-game winning streak into Baltimore this weekend, and the biggest question for the Ravens remains whether or not quarterback Lamar Jackson will be ready. Jackson hasn’t practiced since suffering a strained hamstring on September 28, but according to Ravens beat writer (The Athletic) Jeff Zrebic , Jackson jogged onto the practice field today and did some warmup throws and light running while the media was present. Jackson’s appearance on the pract...
With Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch coming off the reserve/suspended list this week, the team needed to create a roster spot to accommodate his return to the 53-man roster. That move comes with some bad news. The Lions have officially placed veteran linebacker Zach Cunningham on injured reserve. Cunningham returned to the lineup on Monday […]
The San Francisco 49ers promoted edge rusher Robert Beal Jr to the active roster. To make room for him, Trevis Gipson was released. Gipson played 17 defensive snaps against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 7. He’s played 41 snaps in the past three weeks, while Beal has not played since Week 4 against the Jacksonville […]
The last time Matt LaFleur’s Green Bay Packers faced off against Mike Tomlin’s Pittsburgh Steelers, the Packers lost 23-19 to a Kenny Pickett-led team that only threw for 119 passing yards on the day. In part, that was because the Pittsburgh defense held quarterback Jordan Love to just a 71.8 passer rating and forced him […]

Woah. After a quiet couple of weeks, Week 7 saw some real highlights from former Hawks. Noah Fant on the scoreboard again. George Kittle’s back. T.J. Hockenson is mad, while Cooper DeJean is tangling with Justin Jefferson and winning that battle. Then there is Riley Moss and the gonzo ending in Denver. Let’s go! Tight […]
The Kansas City Chiefs claimed a 31-0 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday afternoon, improving to 4–3 on the season. The Chiefs dominated every phase of the game — and the offense continued to look extremely potent. The game’s biggest storyline was the return of wide receiver Rashee Rice after serving a six-game […]
Several people have asked me about Storm Norton over the past couple of weeks, and we finally have an answer. The Falcons announced Wednesday that they would officially designate Norton to return from IR. Designating Norton to return opened up his 21-day practice window. The injury report for Wednesday was released shortly after I hit […]
Throughout the week, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur has been stating that the team is set to play the Pittsburgh Steelers, who just happen to have quarterback Aaron Rodgers, not playing Aaron Rodgers. Clearly, there’s an attempt to diffuse the talk about a potential revenge game, and that was reciprocated by Rodgers on […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers will look to get back on the winning track on Sunday night when they host the Green Bay Packers. Pittsburgh’s offense has been one of the best in the NFL, tied for seventh in EPA per play and 11th in points per game. One of the reasons the offense has been playing […]

Danielle Bain joined Gino Reda with more.
It takes a village to replace Divine Deablo, apparently. Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich made that clear on Wednesday in remarks to media, when he said a mix of linebackers and defensive backs will be deployed to fill his role. Part of that is owing to Deablo, a converted safety, having a mix of linebacker […]
We’ll get our first Bears injury report of the week later on Wednesday. And when we get it, the first name I will be looking for is that of Grady Jarrett . The two-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman is in his first season with the Bears and was brought in as a free agent to help stabilize the middle of the defense. Unfortunately, injuries have limited him to just three games. Things were trending toward Jarrett playing in Chicago’s Week 7 game against the New Orleans Saints, but Jarrett was a lat...
When I started writing for Stampede Blue, I thought these film breakdowns would be a great opportunity to breakdown film in great detail. Both the positive and the negative plays. I never thought I’d be sitting here 7 weeks into the season feeling like I have to completely nitpick to find unsuccessful plays. Sure, this […]
