The New Orleans Saints (2-10) are on the road this week to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-5) for their 2nd matchup of the season in Raymond James Stadium on Sunday. These two teams first played one another way back on December 11, 1977, which saw the Bucs defeat the Saints 33-14 in the […]
Robert Saleh is a well-known retread who lost his job in New York after having serious conflict with Aaron Rodgers. He is considered one of the best defensive minds in the NFL, and he has had very solid stints as defensive coordinator for the San Francisco 49ers. One of the things he is most known […]
After being a healthy scratch for the Steelers in Week 13, Pittsburgh announced that they were releasing the former Eagles CB, Darius Slay. Rumors quickly started swirling about the veteran Super Bowl winner returning to the Eagles, but John Clark of NBC Sports reported on Wednesday that there was mutual interest in a reunion. When […]
There are two certainties in an NFL season. The first is that attrition will take its toll at some point. No team makes it through a year unscathed. Sooner or later, someone, very likely more than one someone, will go down. It’s a fact of life. People get hurt playing professional football. The second is […]

It’s been a rough season for Detroit Lions safety Kerby Joseph. After a strong start—nabbing three interceptions in the first six games of the season—Joseph has been sidelined with a knee injury for the past six contests. The Lions have not placed him on injured reserve, yet he hasn’t practiced, and the only updates we’ve […]
All of a sudden, Jacksonville is in first place in the AFC South. The 8-4 Jaguars, winners of three straight and four of their last five, will clash for the divisional lead this weekend with the 8-4 Colts, losers of two straight and three of their last four. Liam Coen’s Jags have all the momentum […]
Playing in the Black Friday Game makes it feel like the Bears last stepped foot on a playing field forever ago. And with their Week 14 game being a 3:25 p.m. CT start, the wait will feel that much longer. I hope they make it worth it for us!
Speaking of start times, the Bears-Packers Week 16 game now has a 7:20 p.m. CT kickoff. It will make the first night game at Soldier Field since 2019 between these long-time rivals. I imagine that when (if?) the new stadium gets built, we will get m...
Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry has the team set up to take yet another shot at fixing the quarterback issue in the 2026 NFL Draft. Thanks to a draft-day trade with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Berry has a pair of first-round selections at his disposal. With the Browns entering a transition season and the Jaguars […]
As improbable as it may seem, the San Francisco 49ers have an outside chance at obtaining the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs. There’s roughly a 26 percent chance of the Niners winning the NFC West. One more slip-up from the Rams, and we can begin to have a serious conversation about both, so […]
The latest episode of The Real Forno Show — hosted by Tyler Forness with producer Dave Stefano on Vikings 1st & SKOL — is the raw, no-holds-barred autopsy every Minnesota Vikings fan needs after the humiliating 26-0 shutout loss to Sam Darnold and the Seattle Seahawks. Fresh off a beach in Mexico, an enraged Forness […]

For the past month, we’ve been trying to seek out the positives in what feels like another lost season. We’ve found the silver linings in the Steelers’ long-term prospects, even if we haven’t felt many reasons to be optimistic about the chances of Pittsburgh finally snapping their playoff victory drought this season, let alone climbing […]

This week, the New Orleans Saints will head to Raymond James Stadium to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 14 of the 2025 NFL season. The player to watch for this matchup has come up big the past couple of weeks and should see even more opportunity with Justin Reid expected to miss time […]
It’s not quite a must-win game, but it’s just about as close as you can get to one. The Detroit Lions’ playoff odds with a loss to the Dallas Cowboys would drop their odds of making it to the postseason to just 12%, while a win would jump their probability to 45% (per the New […]
After the expectation that rookie running back Omarion Hampton would make his return to the lineup following the Week 12 bye, he was a late scratch at the end of the week following a week full of being limited in practice. While fans may have been bummed out about that decision, the Chargers did not […]
The feeling that’s now creeping in? We haven’t had it for a really long time. It’s uncomfortable. And it’s getting harder and harder to ignore. It’s the feeling of doubt. For years, the Kansas City Chiefs have been surrounded by a feeling of inevitability. It started in 2019. Everything about it was so new… so […]
It’s definitely getting colder but, fortunately, we always have football to warm the cockles. Except… we didn’t really have much football in November, did we? We somehow conspired to only have four – count ‘em, four – actual football matches in all 30 days of last month. Can you remember such a sparse fixture schedule […]
It’s a testament to the professionalism and drive of players like Danton Heinen, Ryan Graves and Philip Tomasino that AHL assignments have been used as positive fuel instead of becoming a drag both individually and for the team and organization at large. It’s not an easy situation when an NHL player making NHL bucks gets […]
The Los Angeles Rams were looked at as perhaps the best team in the NFL while they were on their six-game win streak, but after losing to the Carolina Panthers this past Sunday, that’s not likely to the be case as L.A. should fall in many power rankings, and in the mind’s eye of those […]
Trading for Minkah Fitzpatrick ended up being one of Chris Grier's finest moments at the end of his tenure as the Miami Dolphins general manager.
