There is no doubt that Allegiant Stadium is a beautiful facility. It’s a treat to step in it every time. But, the reality is, it has yet to become a productive home for the Las Vegas Raiders in terms of the bottom line of professional football — -wins and losses. The Raiders are just 20-29 […]
Cleveland Browns (3-10) The Browns put together one of their best offensive performances of the season last week but still came up short of a victory. Their stingy defense surprisingly gave up 31 points and 184 rushing yards to the Tennessee Titans at home. That overshadowed their offense totaling over 400 yards and 22 first […]
For Week 15, the New Orleans Saints (3-10) are back home to take on the Carolina Panthers (7-6) in the Caesars Superdome. So, let’s jump right in and take a look at some of the Canal Street Chronicles staff’s predictions for this week’s matchup between the Saints and Panthers. NIC: KYLE: CALEB: What do you […]
Commanders links Articles Commanders.com Practice notes | Ben Sinnott ready to ‘do what I know I can do’ “I’m excited to…do what I know I can do,” Sinnott said. Sinnott was the second tight end taken off the board when the Commanders selected him with the 53rd overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. He […]
Let’s hear it for Atlanta! The Atlanta Falcons pulled off a ridiculous comeback against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday night. Neither team is a threat to the Seattle Seahawks, as the Falcons have already been eliminated from the postseason and the Buccaneers are now in significant playoff peril. But it’s now the second time […]
The Detroit Lions (8-5) and Los Angeles Rams (10-3) will square off in a Week 15 matchup at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, California. “Very good opponent, playing at a very high level,” Lions coach Dan Campbell said earlier this week. “They’ve got players at every level. Good coaching, productive team. This’ll be a big […]
The Miami Dolphins are underdogs on MNF this week for good reason, but their new-look offense should have the Steelers on high alert.
When Luke Weaver joined the Yankees in September of 2023, it was with the lowest of expectations. The former first-rounder and top-50 prospect never fulfilled that pedigree with the Cardinals, who shipped him off to the Diamondbacks as part of a package to acquire Paul Goldschmidt after the 2018 campaign. In his first year with […]

Chargers News: Check out Thursday’s injury report for the Chargers (Chargers.com) The Chargers put together a mini movie where you can relive the OT win over the Eagles (Chargers.com) How does this Chiefs matchup define the Chargers’ playoff chances? (Chargers Wire) […]
We assumed we knew this story. There were brilliant moments, stellar individual performances, and stretches where it looked like Atlanta would cruise to an unlikely win. Then it seemed that they were undone by the same errors that have cropped up all season, fresh waves of penalties, and failures by players the Falcons have been […]
2025’s second game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles Chargers could represent a fork in the road for each franchise. One is trying to keep the magic of its current dynasty alive. The other is chasing a second playoff appearance in two years under head coach Jim Harbaugh. This season may ultimately […]
The other day, I had a question I was wondering about: How often does a team that’s .500 or worse in December manage to still make the playoffs? And I was surprised by what turned out to be the answer: All the time. No, literally, it happens every season. Going back to the 2013 lockout (and excluding the COVID season that didn’t start until January), at least one team that was .500 or worse in December has made the playoffs each and every season: >> Read the full post at The Athletic (Wan...
After sorting through and writing about the Fangraphs prospect update in recent weeks, I got to wondering about some players who weren’t on this list of prospects and who might find themselves on it after the next update. Who in the system is not on a prospect list NOW but could well be by this […]
The Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Rams face off in yet another critical NFC matchup. The Rams are fighting for the No. 1 seed in the conference, while Detroit is scrambling to just get into the postseason. While the Lions need this game more, the Rams have been playing better football recently. But is the […]
Early in the season, the Steelers’ Week 15 Monday Night Football matchup versus the Dolphins looked like an easy-to-predict win for Pittsburgh. Miami started the year 1-6, and would be playing in the cold, on the road against a Steelers team that historically does very well on MNF. But since then, Miami has morphed into […]
Happy Friday, folks! The Bruins extended their winning streak to four games last night, defeating the Jets in Winnipeg by a score of 6-3. Highlights from that game included: The power play was an asset for the Bruins on Thursday night, as they went 2-for-2 on the evening. You can check out the full highlights […]
Not much went right for Dallas in Week 14, but the Eagles stopped the bleeding with their Monday night loss to the Chargers. With the Cowboys’ best shot at making the playoffs now clearly in their own division, it’s more important than ever that we dive into the goings on of the NFC East. Philly’s […]
The Green Bay Packers’ offense was mired in quite a slump just a few weeks ago. Even with tight end Tucker Kraft on the field, the unit was not playing up to its potential. Kraft was the team’s YAC machine, picking up chunks of yardage after the catch to spark some big plays. But one […]
The New Orleans Saints will head back to the Big Easy to face the Carolina Panthers at Caesars Superdome in Week 15 of the 2025 NFL season. To break it down, Walker Clement of Cat Scratch Reader joins us to preview Sunday afternoon’s matchup. NJ: Do you expect the Panthers’ leading rusher, Rico Dowdle, to have a bounce-back […]
It’s week 15 of the NFL season and the 3-10 Washington Commanders will be facing a 2-11 New York Giants team on the road at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Sunday at 1:00 pm ET. The Commanders set the tone for the Giants season with a 21-6 drubbing of the Giants in […]
Hello CSR! Welcome to Brian Answers, part two of your weekly Panthers fan mailbag for everyone! We’re back from the bye week, and all week we’ve talked about Bryce Young’s future on this website.

In Today’s Links: where do our Seattle Seahawks rank amongst the teams with double digit victories, Cooper Kupp has some positive things to say about the ‘Hawks and their success, how Jonathan Taylor is going to test our league-leading defense, things the Seahawks need to do to diversify their offense, roster news, injury reports, Bryce […]
The New England Patriots defense started the season slowly, but has since developed into one of the stoutest units in football. Despite its recent success, however, it remains focused on one thing heading into a crucial Week 15 matchup with the Buffalo Bills: improvement. With the AFC East on the line and the playoffs looming […]
Before Philip Rivers unretired, he had been in the league for a long time (look it up if you doubt me), and as Matthew Stafford has continued his career, he’s given himself chances to pass quarterbacks in the record books including Rivers. So give it up to the headline/article below because I hadn’t thought about […]
With the news that the Detroit Lions will indeed be playing a game outside of the United States next season, it got me thinking on the NFL’s desire to expand the game. The game has always been wildly popular here in the states, but even that popularity has grown exponentially over the last decade or […]
