Random Ramsdom: They are the only team to beat them

The Los Angeles Rams are still the only team to have beaten the Indianapolis Colts, and yes, that Colts could have beaten the Rams, but they didn’t, so it’s a positive benchmark for the Rams. Have the Colts looked like the best team in the NFL? Through eight weeks, yes, how can you say the […]

NFC playoff picture update: Good bye week for the Detroit Lions

The NFC playoff pictures is becoming more and more clear. Week 8, in particular, seemed to separate the contenders from the pretenders, and for a team like the Detroit Lions—who were on their bye week—it was a productive set of games. Not only did two of three division foes lose, but one of the top […]

What does a Sonny Gray trade look like?

Last week, I tried to take a peek into what would be necessary to trade Nolan Arenado, and as expected, the conclusion was that the Cardinals would have to include more than half of his salary and also not really get anything back. I may revisit Arenado trade possibilities by looking into bad contract swaps […]

Falcons – Dolphins recap: Doom, gloom, and losing the room

Everything we thought the Falcons would be good at this year and everything they have actually been good at this year was absent Sunday, the latest in a growing series of deeply disappointing 2025 performances.

Windy City Honors: Chicago Bears Week 8 Superlatives

After an ugly 30-16 loss against the Baltimore Ravens, the Chicago Bears fell to 4-3. This loss ends a four-game winning streak for the team.

The Optimist: This isn’t our first time

Right, so, we’re here again. The Carolina Panthers ended their historic three-game winning streak with a loss to the Buffalo Bills. The Bills have been a favorite of bettors nationwide to make the AFC Championship game this season and the Panthers can’t even get odds on that game. This was penned in everyone’s calendar as […]

Myles Garrett matchup a learning experience for Patriots’ Will Campbell

Blocking future Pro Football Hall of Famer Myles Garrett is no easy task. Rookie left tackle Will Campbell learned that the hard way on Sunday. Despite a 32-13 victory for Campbell’s Patriots, Garrett had a career afternoon recording eight pressure, five sacks and a forced fumble. That included five pressures and three sacks — including […]

Former Seahawks receiver Tyler Lockett finds a new home

In the offseason the Seattle Seahawks made wholesale changes at receiver and quarterback, trading DK Metcalf and Geno Smith, and released Tyler Lockett.

Colts-Steelers opening odds: Colts seeking a big road win

The Indianapolis Colts have played the Pittsburgh Steelers quite a bit over the years. Thirty-five times these two teams have matched up, and the Colts have only won eight of those games. That is the bad part. A potential silver lining, however, is that two of those wins came in the last two meetings. Both […]
