Well, look at it this way: The 2025 Vikings’ championship hopes lasted just as long as the Kansas City Chiefs’.

After playing his best game so […]
First place in the NFC West and the No. 1 seed in the NFC is on the line on a stormy Thursday night at Lumen Field. The Seattle Seahawks (11-3) and Los Angeles Rams (11-3) share identical records, but the Rams have the edge based on their Week 11 win back in November. It was […]

Steelers center Zach Frazier was not in uniform during Wednesday’s practice, instead working off to the side in what may ultimately prove to be inconsequential, but nonetheless noteworthy, given the team’s current injury situation along the offensive line. Head coach Mike Tomlin did not mention any injury involving Frazier during his pregame or postgame media […]

After a fast start with Sonny Gray being traded from the St. Louis Cardinals to the Boston Red Sox, the trade market has slowed to a crawl. There are, however, two changes to the potential trade market that could affect what the St. Louis Cardinals do with Brendan Donovan. As I shared a few days […]
Before we get into it, everyone take a deep breath in, and a deep breath out. Three games, that’s all we have to get through before this miserable Las Vegas Raiders season is finally over. Then, it’s the offseason where we can build up hope again (and, hopefully, not get let down, again). On that […]
San Francisco 49ers rookie linebacker Nick Martin remains in the concussion protocol. Defensive tackle Jordan Elliott won’t practice on Thursday with a knee injury, while left guard Spencer Burford (knee/ankle) will also sit out of practice.

The Cowboys aren’t mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, but they effectively are. It’s even probable that they’ll be officially eliminated before they take the field for their next game. That means the rest of the season is going to consist of evaluations for the players and coaches. It may seem weird to say given the […]
Dan Rafael reports that Erika Cruz, slated to rematch Amanda Serrano on January 3rd, has been pulled from the fight after turning in an “atypical VADA test result for clenbuterol.” Rafael emphasizes that the result is an “adverse finding” rather than an outright failure, “meaning it needs more analysis,” but Serrano will instead face undefeated […]
We got some insight into the Federal Way native from someone who has covered him closely.
The final Chicago Bears injury report of the week is out. Unfortunately, so are two of quarterback Caleb Williams’ top pass-catching targets.

Odunze has missed the last two games due to a foot injury. Meanwhile, Burden will sit this one out because of an ankle issue. Burden, a rookie from Mizzou, has gained the trust of his q...
A reminder that Jaylon Johnson’s football IQ is through the roof popped up in the Chicago Bears’ Week 15 win against the Cleveland Browns.

He joined me postgame to discuss, plus 3 more takeaways – Bears #1 with 30 total… “I seen him (Jerry Jeudy) and Sh...
A Philadelphia team that came into the season as recent Super Bowl winners but can’t get into gear. A Washington team with a double digit loss season a year after landing a franchise QB. What decade is this? John Stolnis is correct, this isn’t 2023 all over again. If this season is a repeat, it’s […]
