After finishing with an NFL-worst three wins in 2024, the Titans’ 1-5 start this year was enough to cost Brian Callahan his job. Tennessee became the the first team of the season to fire its head coach when it gave Callahan his walking papers on Oct. 13.
Almost two full months since Callahan’s ouster, the Titans have logged even worse results. They’re 0-6 under interim head coach Mike McCoy, who likely has little to no chance of earning a full-time promotion after the season. That should put president of football operations Chad Brinker and first-year general manager Mike Borgonzi in...

As the regular season slides into the final stretch, Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver AJ Brown continues to navigate what is arguably his most challenging campaign.
While his numbers aren’t too shabby—56 receptions, 699 yards, and six touchdowns in 13 games—they’re still below what many expected from his caliber, especially after signing a lucrative deal last year.
Still, he has every reason to be happy, as the Eagles continue to be on the right track in their title defense. They are in third place in the NFC with an 8-4 record.
Another reason: Someone told him he was “fine.”

Dan Campbell’s halftime message turned prophetic in the Detroit Lions’ Week 14 showdown with the Dallas Cowboys. The head coach’s challenge for “another takeaway, another stop” materialized on the very first defensive snap of the second half.
Dak Prescott opened with the Cowboys’ trademark quick slant, a route that has torched defenses all season. However, Lions corner Amik Robertson anticipated it perfectly. Robertson got his left hand into the throwing lane, and deflected the ball upward. Linebacker Derrick Barnes snatched the floating pass and rumbled deep into Cowboys territory.

The Jets are an obvious suitor for a quarterback. However, with the front office now armed with multiple first-round picks in...
