The first NET rankings of the season are our and, as expected, Purdue is among the nation’s elite teams. The hot stretch for Michigan in Las Vegas has the Wolverines at No. 1, but Purdue is currently third with a chance to take over the top spot in the next few weeks. Saturday’s game alone […]
Michael Badgley’s future as kicker measured in minutes? Brian Mason talks teams!
The Buffalo Bills needed a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in the worst way this past weekend. After one half of football, the Bills looked to be in big trouble. Trailing 7-3 and playing generally uninspired football on offense, Buffalo needed a jolt. Joey Bosa provided that jolt, sacking Aaron Rodgers and causing a fumble […]
On a depth chart full of veteran wide receivers, Kyle Williams has learned a valuable lesson throughout his rookie season. “You just always got to be ready,” Williams said. “It’s a saying, ‘Stay ready so you don’t have to get ready.’ You don’t want to wait until it is the last day or the moment. […]
What will the San Francisco 49ers get in Eric Kendricks? For head coach Kyle Shanahan, it’s too early to tell: “Yeah, I definitely think he has a chance to, that’s why we liked him coming here. But you know, last week we had three days, and it was a short week, and we didn’t do […]

Emmanuel Forbes played a significant role in the Los Angeles Rams’ Week 13 loss to the Carolina Panthers. He allowed two long touchdowns each on fourth down, including the game-winning score from Bryce Young to Tetairoa McMillan. But Forbes is being maligned maybe too much. A rewatch of the final touchdown of the game shows […]
Caleb Williams’ box score wasn’t pretty in Philly, but there is a much bigger picture here that we need to consider. This season, Williams is throwing with anticipation, but the accuracy hasn’t been there at times. However, many times when it has been there, the receiving corps has failed him. It’s a shared problem that Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson acknowledged this week when speaking to reporters on Monday . “The primary receiver, when he’s open, we’ve got to make sure we hit him,” ...

We recently wrote that John Spytek should remain the general manager of the Las Vegas Raiders in 2025. Yes, Chip Kelly deserved to be fired and coach Pete Carroll and Geno Smith may be heading to going one-and-done with the team. But we think Spytek should stay. We asked our community members what they think […]
Earlier in 2025 the Colts had a kicking tryout to replace the injured Spencer Shrader, who went out for the season after a hit against the Titans.

Before the Jets returned, the Moose were the local team that inspired young Winnipeg players to dream big.
During Sunday’s postgame, Cleveland Browns defensive tackle Shelby Harris lashed out at San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings, who apparently crossed the line of trash-talking.
