The San Francisco 49ers offense was rolling on Sunday.

Last week, after defeating the Atlanta Falcons in a rather dominant manner, the Seahawks maintained the same average power ranking. Could a sloppy victory over grandfather, Philip Rivers and the Indianapolis Colts potentially drop the Seahawks down?

Technically, a week before Christmas is still “before Christmas”. That’s the timeline head coach Jon Cooper gave reporters prior to the Lightning’s 5-2 loss to the Florida Panthers when he was asked about the health of Andrei Vasilevskiy. On Tuesday, the Lightning made a couple of moves that would indicate that their all-world goaltender is ready to return to action. The team announced that Scott Sabourin and Brandon Halverson had been assigned to Syracuse . There does remain the chance t...

The Miami Dolphins embarrassingly fell out of the NFL playoff picture on Monday night when they were smacked around Acrisure Stadium by the Pittsburgh Steelers in a nationally televised game.

The Pittsburgh Steelers seemed to be at an obvious disadvantage against the Miami Dolphins without defensive tackle Derrick Harmon in the lineup against the ground attack led by running back De’Von Achane. However, the Steelers were more than ready for whatever the Dolphins threw at them, limiting Achane to just 60 yards on the ground. […]

The Chicago Bears injury report will be worth keeping tabs on this week. Not only are we on high alert since it is Packers Week, it is worth highlighting that there are a handful of Bears injury updates that we will monitor obsessively because they are potential game-changers. For good measure, that we’re adding to the mix that it is a short week with these two teams playing on Saturday complicates matters a bit. Bears injury updates ahead of Week 16 game vs. Packers ROME ODUNZE ...

One of the most popular strategies you’ll see for the Chargers in the early rounds of 2026 mocks will be them trying to fortify both sides of the trenches. Center and offensive guard are likely at the top of their needs list but I also wouldn’t be surprised if interior defensive lineman is also up […]

For several years now, so much of the Detroit Lions’ identity as a team has come from how they run the football. It is a philosophy that has been etched into the minds of everyone around the organization since the first days of the Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes era. Both in 2023 and 2024, […]

Every week, we use this space to look at the Green Bay Packers’ passing game from the previous week, so let’s get to it. It was a tale of two halves for Jordan Love. He looked unstoppable in the 1st half, going 17/22 (77.3%) for 215 yards (9.8 YPA) and 1 TD (122.4 QB Rating). […]

The Packers are down, but not out. Yes, the road ahead got a lot harder this week, but there’s still some reason for hope as the Packers come down the home stretch. For better or for worse, they largely control their own destiny. As long as they keep winning, they’ll more than likely end up […]

When Puka Nacua first arrived in Los Angeles, he made it a point to make his presence felt around the facility. The ‘Breakfast Club’ that used to only include Matthew Stafford and Cooper Kupp, now had a fifth-round rookie sitting at the table. Nacua was attached to Kupp at the hip and that showed in […]

Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett has been terrorizing opposing quarterbacks from the moment he stepped on the field after the franchise made him the No. 1 overall selection in the 2017 NFL Draft. Entering the 2025 season, Garrett had already established himself as Cleveland’s all-time leader in sacks with 102.5 and the single-season leader […]

The Minnesota Vikings and J.J. McCarthy have looked much better over the past two weeks. At a high level, the improved results are largely attributable to McCarthy’s play. His 5-to-1 touchdown-to-interception ratio in that span is a massive upgrade from the 1-to-3 ratio in his previous three starts. The team has also scored 65 points […]

Tracking NFL ATS records is one of the simplest ways to gain an edge when betting on football. While straight-up wins grab headlines, against-the-spread results tell the real story of how teams perform relative to expectations. Some squads consistently outperform the market, while others remain overvalued week after week. By breaking down ATS records, cover percentages, and point differential trends, bettors can better understand where value exists and where sportsbooks may be shading lin...
