The Indianapolis Colts (7-1)(-3) travel to ‘The Steel City’ to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers (4-3), at what’s been a notoriously difficult road environment for the Horseshoe to play at historically throughout franchise history. Even ignoring the 1995 AFC Championship Game, the Colts are 1-13 all-time at Pittsburgh during the regular season, and their last […]
I was up late last night (a.k.a. early this morning) looking for a World Series comp that my football-loving audience here at BN Bears would understand. Before nodding off to dreamland, I landed on the idea of the Blue Jays losing Games 6 and 7 (and, ultimately, the World Series) was the baseball version of the 49ers last two Super Bowl losses. Both teams had leads and command of the game against juggernaut favorites, only to not cash in on opportunities before the big baddies came through wit...
Mazi Smith’s time with the Dallas Cowboys may be coming to an end. NFL Insider Ian Rapoport reported that Dallas is open to moving on from Smith before Tuesday’s trade deadline. Dallas also appears to be open to trading 2023 first-round DT Mazi Smith, who has only played in five games this season. This is the […]
Normally in this spot we do five predictions for an upcoming Seattle Seahawks game. Today, as the Seahawks prepare for their Sunday night game against the Washington Commanders, we’re doing something different and looking bigger picture. Besides, my in-game predictions have been a disaster. If you remember at the start of the season, the Field […]
Sunday is here, and with it comes one of the biggest regular season matchups on the NFL’s 2025 schedule. In today’s late afternoon window, the NFL gets a nationally televised game — a rematch of last year’s AFC Championship Game that features two of the league’s best teams and best quarterbacks. Yes, it’s the Buffalo […]
For the Arizona Cardinals, they are closer to picking top seven, than they are finishing up in the top seven of the NFL Playoffs. Yet, with their game against the Dallas Cowboys looming on Monday Night, they can make up some NFC ground tomorrow just in their game. They can also make up some ground […]
First off, let me say, hats off to any Tennessee Titans fans who are going to the game today. They are calling for around 50 degrees and rain at kickoff. Sitting in miserable weather to watch a miserable team takes serious commitment. The Los Angeles Chargers are not one of those teams that have a […]

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa leads the league with 11 interceptions and has not looked comfortable running the offense for much of the season. The offensive line has not done him any favors, allowing a ton of pressure to get into his face, and even when the opposing defense does not break through, Tagovailoa’s internal […]
Before the Kansas City Chiefs’ Week 8 game against the Washington Commanders, every one of our Arrowhead Pride panelists picked Kansas City to win. Our aggregate prediction of a 34-16 win was among the closest of the season, carrying 18 points of error from the 28-7 final. Three-quarters of our contributors thought the Chiefs were […]
The Miami Dolphins might fire Mike McDaniel, but clearly, his frustrations are becoming a reality sooner than he expected.
The Las Vegas Raiders are about to face off with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday afternoon. It has been a long season for the Silver and Black with the 2-5 start, and they are hoping for a spark coming off the bye. A place where the team has struggled is stopping the pass. While the […]
Welcome to game day, everyone! The Chargers play football today! Tennessee is 1-7 thus far in 2025 and the Chargers have every intention of pushing further down to 1-8. A win today also puts the Chargers back to three games above .500 at 6-3. Nothing is assured on any given Sunday, but something tells me […]
As the Atlanta Falcons travel to face the New England Patriots, they hope that the healthy return of key players will spark their success on the road. Coupled with several struggling players on the verge of being replaced, there is a lot of intrigue surrounding this matchup. Naming five Falcons is always a challenge, but […]
The NFL’s Week 9 schedule started with the Miami Dolphins losing to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday. It now moves on to the Sunday slate of games, with 12 games on tap. Meanwhile, the Cleveland Browns, New York Jets, Philadelphia Eagles, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will have the week off as they all reach their […]
Good morning, Bears fans. Hopefully the extra hour of sleep gave the Bears an extra hour of planning to beat the Bengals. Last week’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens was a step backwards for the 4-3 Chicago Bears and their possible playoff hopes, but this year’s squad can’t possibly turn this loss into a ten-game […]
Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links … NFL trade grades: Michael Carter II, Jaire Alexander – ESPNRavens trade CB Alexander to Eagles. Eagles get: CB Jaire Alexander, 2027 seventh-round pick. Ravens get: 2026 sixth-round pick. Eagles grade: B-. Ravens grade: B+. Eagles general manager Howie Roseman will not rest until he has […]
This week, we asked Jacksonville Jaguars fans which position the team should target at the trade deadline. Over half of the respondents chose defensive line, and about a third chose pass-catcher or offensive line. Only 2% of voters don’t want the Jaguars to make a move at the deadline. The front office may agree with […]
In what has been one of the NFL’s premier rivalries, the 5-3 Kansas City Chiefs are taking on the 5-2 Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York. This AFC showdown (which will be available to the entire country on CBS) will feature two of the league’s best quarterbacks — Patrick Mahomes and […]

Through the first five weeks of the season, the Ravens’ defense allowed 35.4 points per game — the most in any five-game stretch in franchise history — leading to a 1-4 record despite the offense scoring 28.1 points per game. Injuries struck the defense line early, with Pro Bowler Nnamdi Madubuike being ruled out for […]
A couple weeks ago, I discussed the four lefty bats since they were brought up by Katie Woo as a group who is likely to interest on the trade market. The quartet of Brendan Donovan, Alec Burleson, Lars Nootbaar, and Nolan Gorman are seen as expendable pieces as the Cardinals work towards their rebuild, but […]
The Dallas Cowboys will host the Arizona Cardinals on Monday night in what many are touting as a must-win to keep their playoff hopes alive. Not only are they desperate to get back in the win column, but this team has never lost to a team with a losing record this season, so falling short […]
The Buffalo Bills (5-2) welcome the Kansas City Chiefs (5-3) to Highmark Stadium later this afternoon for a 4:25 p.m. EST battle of Super Bowl contenders with a lot of history.

In the NFL’s Week 9, the Buffalo Bills are hosting the Kansas City Chiefs in a widely anticipated matchup. Over the past few years, Buffalo has been Kansas City’s regular-season nemesis. The Chiefs have now lost four straight to the Bills — but in the postseason, Kansas City has collected four consecutive victories over Buffalo. […]
