Buffalo Bills make more history in win over Baltimore Ravens

The Bills secured a win over the Ravens as head coach Joe Brady became the first in franchise history to start 6‑1, posting a 33.3‑point per‑game average that ranks second among Super Bowl‑era coaches. Defensive standouts included Cole Bishop, Landon Jackson, T.J. Parker and Greg Rousseau, who each logged a sack, while rookie Davison Igbinosun captured his first NFL interception. James Cook extended his rushing‑touchdown streak to six games, and Josh Allen tied a 1950 record with his ninth rushing TD in the first seven games, moving into 16th all‑time. DJ Moore added a 49‑yard reception, the team’s third‑longest play of the season.

Steelers Should Be Considered Threat To Win The AFC, Schefter Says

ESPN’s Adam Schefter says the Pittsburgh Steelers are emerging as a legitimate AFC contender despite a modest 10‑7 record in each of the past three seasons, which previously only earned wild‑card berths or a fourth seed. The article examines how recent roster moves and coaching adjustments could shift the Steelers from perennial underdogs to serious playoff threats this year.

Mike Tomlin sounds off on Cowboys: ‘They’re blinkers. They gotta cut their eyelids off’

After a 33-30 overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals, the Dallas Cowboys' 3-5 record sparked criticism from Steelers head coach‑turned‑analyst Mike Tomlin. Commenting on Sunday Night Football, Tomlin called the Cowboys “blinkers” who need to “cut their eyelids off,” blaming a lack of aggression on both offense and defense during the final drive. He urged coach Brian Schottenheimer to identify and challenge players who truly want to win as the Cowboys face the Indianapolis Colts in Week 9. The loss marks the Cardinals’ ninth win against Dallas since 2008.

Should the Saints be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline?

The New Orleans Saints sit just one game behind first place in a division where every rival has three wins, putting the team at a crossroads before the trade deadline. The article weighs whether New Orleans should splurge on veteran defensive help—targets like interior tackle Grover Stewart, Daron Payne, or Dalvin Tomlinson—to shore up a run‑stopping crisis, or instead trade away assets and focus on rebuilding. It argues that sacrificing draft capital for a single veteran is risky, suggesting a better strategy may be to flip fringe players such as Justin Reid, Pete Werner, Spencer Rattler, Kendre Miller and Cesar Ruiz for future picks. Ultimately, the piece asks if the Saints should aim for a modest nine‑win push now or preserve long‑term flexibility.

Bears can do Rams a favor on Monday Night Football

Monday Night Football pits the Chicago Bears against the Seattle Seahawks, and a Bears win could indirectly help the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC playoff race. A Seattle loss would drop the Seahawks to 4-4, tying them with the Rams in the NFC West behind the 6-1 49ers. With the NFC North tightly packed—Vikings at 6-1, Bears and Lions at 5-2, Packers 5-3—the Bears' result also impacts non‑divisional wild‑card berths. The Rams, now 4-4, still have winnable games against Washington and an upcoming rematch with Arizona, which is juggling its quarterback situation.

How and why this 2026 Seahawks offense could change

The Seahawks' offense is undergoing a major shift after landing All‑Pro guard Quenton Nelson from Indianapolis. With left tackle Charles Cross out injured, the revamped line—featuring new right guard Grey Zabel and returning backs Jadarian Price and Zach Charbonnet—will initially prioritize the run game while the unit gels. Coach Brian Fleury expects Zabel’s college versatility to smooth the transition, and veteran center Jeff Saturday predicts quick adaptation. Quarterback Sam Darnold will rely on quicker reads as receivers like Cooper Kupp and Tory Horton adjust routes to counter double‑coverage on star wideout JSN. Increased tight‑end and A.J. Barner involvement aims to diversify the attack as Seattle looks to dictate defenses midway through the season.

Fulton’s Gavin Doty ‘counting down the minutes’ to Syracuse debut

He’s added 10‑pound muscle, sharpened his three‑point shot and boasts a reputation for relentless hustle, grabbing 21 rebounds in SU’s recent exhibitions. Doty says he’s “counting down the minutes” to wear the Orange uniform and help lift a program that struggled with outside shooting last season.

Green Bay Packers’ struggling ground game raises questions about a “Sustainable” offense

After a 27-19 Thursday Night Football win over the Carolina Panthers, the Green Bay Packers’ ground game remains a glaring weakness. Coach Matt LaFleur praised the defense, but analyst Marcus Spears warned that the offense’s lack of a running threat is unsustainable, especially after costly errors in a Week 7 loss to Detroit. Jordan Love’s stellar play can’t mask drops and a stagnant run attack, forcing the Panthers to rely heavily on the pass. With trade‑deadline options like Josh Jacobs under cloud due to fresh abuse allegations, the Packers must overhaul their line and ground scheme before a tougher schedule hits.
