Sunday night’s 20-10 win over the Atlanta Falcons for the San Francisco 49ers was a masterclass performance from both Kyle Shanahan and Robert Saleh. With both sides of the ball dealing with plenty of injuries, the 49ers put together their best performance of the 2025 season thanks to a solid game plan from Shanahan and […]
The Dallas Cowboys are on the clock. The tick-tock sound you hear is Father Time winding down on the playing career of Dak Prescott. The Cowboys’ franchise quarterback is 32 years old, and realistically speaking, you can probably count on one hand how many good years he has left. And it doesn’t help that he […]
After a rough loss to the Kansas City Chiefs last week, the Detroit Lions needed to make a statement. Back at Ford Field in a primetime game, the Lions hosted the Tampa Bay Buccaneers just to send them packing in a 24-9 win for the home team. Contrary to what the score shows, Detroit’s offense […]

Even though the Green Bay Packers continue to win football games to the tune of the NFC-leading record going into Week 8, national analysts don’t seem to be buying the hype around the team. In fact, in the 11 power rankings that we’ve been tracking, the Packers actually fell in 7 of them, were unmoved […]
Losing that game really sucked because it was there to be won. In my opinion, the play of the QB doomed the offense on some critical plays. There were a couple of plays that seemed boneheaded. You really do not expect a veteran QB to do dumb things or not see a player in the […]
Let me start with a quick recap of last week’s confidence poll. We were nearly at 75% of voters either believing that the Colts were already the team to beat, or an acquisition away from being so. For the other 25%, “What are you waiting for?” I would gather that those who are holding out, […]
The NY Jets starting the season with an 0-7 record has caused fans to question the quarterback, head coach, and owner. And as fate would have it, Jets owner Woody Johnson spoke to the media on Tuesday at the NFL’s Fall League Meeting to address his thoughts on the team – most notably, Aaron Glenn […]
It was not a pretty offensive showing for the New York Jets in Week 7 against the Carolina Panthers. For a second consecutive game, the Jets failed to reach the end zone. Things got so bad that the team made a quarterback change at halftime, benching Justin Fields. Anybody who watched the game could see […]
This was one of the best games of Jalen Hurts’ career. Against the Minnesota Vikings, Hurts finished with a perfect passer rating (158.3), completing 19 of 23 passes for 326 yards and three touchdowns. The ball placement, timing, command, and confidence were all elite. This Philadelphia Eagles performance was a weird one to break down. […]

Belichick is eligible for induction for the first time this year, as the Hall of Fame recently reduced the waiting period for former coaches to just one season. […]
Welcome back for another round of fantasy football ramblings. This week, the Byepocalypse, and looking down the road at the playoffs. Last session’s grades: Bryce Young – 6/10 A good spot start against Dallas, and a salvageable start against the Jets cut short by injury. Hassan Haskins – 1/10 Lost the open gig to Kimani […]
On Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs opened a can of something-or-other on the Las Vegas Raiders, escorting them off GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium after a 31-0 beatdown. Here are three things that occur to me after reflecting on Sunday’s game. 1. Stone Forsyth didn’t cause Omarr Norman-Lott’s injury No matter what I think about […]
Last week, after beating the Jacksonville Jaguars, the national media began looking at the Seattle Seahawks as a legitimate playoff team, and perhaps even a Super Bowl contender. However, how will this change after the Seahawks stout victory over the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football? Well, this week, despite the win, the national media […]
It wasn’t always pretty (particularly in the first half), but the Green Bay Packers pulled out an ugly victory over the Arizona Cardinals in week 7 to get to a 4-1-1 record. As we do every week, we’re taking a look at the performance of the passing game. So let’s stop talking about it and […]
The bye week comes with mixed feelings. On one hand, Jacksonville is 4-3 with the toughest part of its schedule out of the way. On the other hand, there’s been a lot of uninspiring football over the past two games. The Jaguars got bullied in consecutive weeks. “We cannot, absolutely not, go back and try […]
After a long drought the tide is finally coming back in. The Patriots are surging in 2025, extending their hot streak and climbing the power rankings after a dominant 31-13 Week 7 victory over the Titans. This marked their fourth win in a row, improving their record to 5-2 and putting them alone atop the […]

Waiver Wire Week 8 Week 7 delivered another wave of chaos. Mike Evans broke his collarbone and will miss most of the season. Puka Nacua sat out with an ankle injury, Nico Collins suffered a concussion, and Jayden Daniels exited with a hamstring strain. All four absences create target vacuums and shift depth charts heading […]

Four in a row! Th Chicago Bears have won four football games in a row. I didn’t even think that was allowed anymore. I mean, I knew it was allowed but it sure felt like the Bears weren’t allowed to win that many games in a row. I still wouldn’t categorize the Bears as a […]
We will take it. Ensnared in the spookiest home stretch of their already spooky existence, the Seattle Seahawks exorcised their home demons ahead of Halloween. Lumen Field is a Little Shop of Horrors no more. Indeed, the Scream-ing 68,632 in attendance Saw their favorite defense slowly but surely Chainsaw Massacre the Houston Texans on a […]
