In the lead up to Week 8, I felt like the Philadelphia Eagles needed to make a statement against the New York Giants. The Birds needed to get back at the team that embarrassed them on a national stage in Week 6. My stance on the Eagles needing to score style points softened once we […]
Last week, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett said that Green Bay Packers fans making the trip out west forced the Cardinals’ offense to have to use their silent count at home. This isn’t anything new for the Packers, one of the bigger fan bases in the league, but it does seem to be a recurring […]
The Green Bay Packers made one clear benching against the Pittsburgh Steelers, while they opened up competitions at two other positions. On top of that, the team returned receiver Christian Watson and defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt from injury. So how do all of these pieces of the puzzle fit in? Let’s go position-by-position through the […]
In August of 2022, then-AEW Champion Jon Moxley cut a promo on CM Punk, with the now-infamous tagline being four words: “Weak mind, weak spirit.” Who knew that those words would also perfectly encapsulate the Pittsburgh Steelers? After taking a 16-7 lead into halftime against the Green Bay Packers, the Steelers allowed 28 second-half points, […]

As far as made-up holidays go, National Tight End Day isn’t too bad. At the position, there were some standout performances in Week 8, but none matched Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft’s seven receptions for 143 yards and two touchdowns.

It didn’t end up mattering at the end, but for the first half of the Green Bay Packers’ win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, it looked like kicker Brandon McManus was going to cost them the game. McManus was essentially responsible for a nine-point swing in the first half. A missed 57-yard field goal came up […]
Before kickoff between the Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers, all anyone could talk about was the matchup featuring Aaron Rodgers playing against his old team for the first time. During the game, however, it was his Packers successor, Jordan Love, who earned the headlines. Love and his favorite target, Tucker Kraft, filled up the […]
The San Francisco 49ers entered Week 8 as the top team in the NFC West, but their loss to the Houston Texans dropped them into wild card position and barely hanging on to that. It wasn’t that long ago that San Francisco was the top team in the NFC. The Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles […]
Without even setting foot on the field in Week 8, the Seattle Seahawks have moved into first place in the NFC West. As the end of October quickly approached, a three-team logjam formed atop the NFC West. The Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams all entered Week 8 at 5-2, though the Niners […]
Going into Week 8, the NFC had a 25-13 record against the AFC during the 2025 season, a win percentage of 66 percent. For perspective, that was a higher win rate for the NFC than in any NFL season previously, outside of 1970 — the first year of the NFL-AFL merger. This week, though, the […]

The AFC East-leading New England Patriots and the second-place Buffalo Bills both won, the Denver Broncos walloped the Dallas Cowboys, and the Los Angeles […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers lead the Green Bay Packers 16-7 at the time of writing, but one of their top defenders suffered a potentially severe injury.

Following the Chicago Bears’ game against the Baltimore Ravens, head coach Ben Johnson was asked about the injury that saw nickleback Kyler Gordon land on injured reserve on Saturday. “We’re hoping it’s going to be of the short-term variety, so we should be able to get him back,” Johnson said. “But yeah, it’s another soft […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers lead the Green Bay Packers 16-7 at halftime. And while the Steelers can be happy with the lead, they’ll have to hold onto it without one of their defensive linemen.

The Dallas Cowboys continue to play Jekyll and Hyde this season, and unfortunately came out on the losing end of the Week 8 matchup with the Denver Broncos.
