Monday night’s matchup between the San Francisco 49ers and Carolina Panthers has massive playoff implications. When the schedule was released, very few would believe the Week 12 matchup would have so much on the line, but that is how close the NFC has been in 2025. A victory for the 49ers would increase their playoff […]
The Detroit Lions coordinators met with media on Thursday to discuss the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles and look forward to Sunday’s game against the New York Giants. Topics ranged from missing Sam LaPorta, why the defense loves Dan Campbell’s fourth-down aggression, and some thoughts on how to improve the return game on special teams. […]
After beating Boston College by the skin of our teeth, it’s now time for our final conference game and our final home game of the 2025 season. This weekend promises to be an emotional one, as we honor a group of senior leaders who have poured everything into this program. Adding to the weight of […]
Just when the Carolina Panthers were down and out and it looked like Bryce Young’s career was on the ropes, Young and the Panthers went into Atlanta and put forth their best passing display of Young’s career and the entire franchise’s history. Young finished with a Panthers record 448 yards passing. Tetairoa McMillan accounted for […]
It’s no surprise at this point when the Los Angeles Rams lose coaches in the offseason. Last year they lost Nick Caley to the Houston Texans as he became their offensive coordinator. The season before they lost Raheem Morris, Zac Robinson, Eric Henderson, and Jake Peetz. It’s been a never-ending cycle that head coach Sean […]
After what felt like weeks of anticipation, we finally got a glimpse of the new-look Cowboys defense, and boy did it deliver. They didn’t give up a touchdown until the fourth quarter and sacked Geno Smith four times. That said, it was also the Raiders, one of the worst offenses in the league. Which means […]
Plus, it’s Division III bowl weekend, while the D-II and D-III playoffs are beginning. In 1996, the Minnesota Vikings signed a castoff from the Cleveland Browns who had spent the first half of that season bouncing around the Baltimore Ravens and Carolina Panthers: Leroy Hoard. A Michigan Man, signed to replace the injured Robert Smith, […]
In an ugly matchup against the Browns, the Ravens’ rookies helped to grind out one of the team’s toughest wins to date. Divisional games on the road are always difficult, no matter the opponent, so it’s good for rookies to get familiar with these matchups early. Here’s how they performed. Malaki Starks After a two-game […]
Like it or not, it’s Aaron Rodgers week. Even in the post-Packers chapter of his career, there’s too much Bears-Rodgers history to pretend otherwise. So it was no surprise that Wednesday’s availability for Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson featured plenty of Rodgers talk from both quarterback and coach. Williams has never shied away from the comparison. During the pre-draft process, I compared him to Aaron Rodgers. Williams himself said at the Combine that among the quarterbacks he studies, ...
With the 2-8 Cleveland Browns and 2-8 Las Vegas Raiders facing off in Week 12, this game has big implications when it comes to the 2026 NFL draft order. The Browns currently own the third overall pick while the Raiders sit at No. 6 heading into the weekend, per Tankathon. So, the “winner” of this […]
Week 12 DFS Picks The Buffalo Bills travel to NRG Stadium on Thursday night to face the Houston Texans in a critical Week 12 matchup that could shape the AFC playoff picture. Fresh off one of the most dominant individual performances of the season, the Bills find themselves 7-3 in a good position in the […]
On Wednesday, the Dolphins officially placed cornerback JuJu Brents on injured reserve after he suffered a foot injury in Miami’s Week 11 overtime win over the Washington Commanders. The former Indianapolis Colts’ second-round pick (44th overall) played well in his limited time with Miami, starting two critical games for the team down the stretch. Brents […]
It is has been widely speculated that Joe Mixon was likely to miss the entire season with a mysterious foot injury. Now, it would appear that the Texans are finally acknowledging what has been speculated by people around the league and in press rooms in Houston and beyond. It would appear that the team will […]
The Seattle Seahawks are currently 13.5-point favorites against the Tennessee Titans, whose only win on the season was one of the flukiest comebacks ever against the Arizona Cardinals. They’ve been at least competitive in close losses to the Los Angeles Chargers and Houston Texans in recent weeks, but 1-9 is 1-9 and they look like […]
Ya’ll know that I am old, right? I have (and use) a flip phone and only a Facebook page as a connection to anything considered social media. Given that, it should not come as much of a surprise that I listen to the radio on my 20 mile commute, to and from work each day. […]
When the Los Angeles Rams lost Ahkello Witherspoon to a broken collarbone, putting him out for two months, there were legitimate questions on who would replace him. There were calls for the Rams to trade for a true top cornerback, but instead, the team opted to stand pat and stick with the status quo. The […]
The San Francisco 49ers haven’t been favored in a game by more than 3.5 points all season. That’s not a complete surprise, as Mac Jones was the starter for much of the season, and he played multiple games without George Kittle, let alone the slew of other injuries that occurred along the way. Now that […]
The Cleveland Browns may not be getting many wins on the field this season (Week 12 versus the Las Vegas Raiders provides an opportunity to change that) but the team did get an extension done with DE Alex Wright on Thursday. Heading into the NFL trade deadline, the Browns roster was loaded with players set […]
Chicago Bears playoff odds being a focal point of in-season content as we gear up for the end of Novmber isn’t something we’re accustomed to around here, but I can get used to it. Week 12 of the 2025 NFL season kicks off with a Thursday Night Football showdown between the Buffalo Bills heading south to face the Houston Texans. The Bears won’t kick off until noon on Sunday at Solider Field, which gives us an opportunity to take a look at the updated NFL playoff odds entering this week’s ac...
One of the most scrutinized decisions from the Detroit Lions’ loss to the Philadelphia Eagles came in the second quarter when the Lions attempted to fake a punt. Facing a fourth-and-2 from their own 43-yard line, the Lions direct snapped to linebacker Grant Stuard. The play failed right away, as Moro Ojomo and Jalyx Hunt […]
It’s been a whiplash two weeks for the Buffalo Bills, from the disheartening loss to the Miami Dolphins, then followed by wide receiver Keon Coleman’s benching and an electric 44-32 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bills are now 7-3 heading into tonight’s primetime matchup with the 5-5 Houston Texans, yet many fans and […]
The Kansas City Chiefs’ offense has underwhelmed in two recent losses to the Buffalo Bills and the Denver Broncos. The two-game skid currently has Kansas City on the outside of the AFC playoff picture. Some frustration among the fan base has risen from watching quarterback Patrick Mahomes force passes while the Chiefs’ running game has […]
After missing Wednesday’s practice with a knee injury, Green Bay Packers starting running back Josh Jacobs will return to the field on Thursday, at least in limited looks. Jacobs suffered a knee contusion against the New York Giants on Sunday, knocking him out of the game after the team’s second drive. In his pre-practice press […]
The Cleveland Browns have officially signed DE Alex Wright to a 3-year, $33 million extension that includes $21 million in guaranteed money, according to the team and his agents. Wright has been a key piece to Cleveland’s defensive line rotation over the past few seasons for Jim Schwartz and Co., being able to play every […]
It was a good weekend for pass-catching Dawgs in the NFL. We saw impact performances, players who couldn’t be tackled, and running backs who could line up anywhere on the field. Like the Georgia offense and defense last Saturday, let’s start fast. From the moment he took his first snaps as a freshman in 2020, […]
