But he has the chance to end 2025 and begin the 2026 calendar on a far more positive note. Set to dress Sunday against the […]

Tom Brady reminisces on a memorable trip to face the Bills during his career that ended with the team getting snowed in.

Here are the contract incentives that NFL players have on the line.

Tom Brady shares the time the New England Patriot got stuck in Buffalo after a huge over the Bills and went to a team dinner at Dinosaur BBQ where the team engaged in beer chugging contests and Brady earned the respect of his offensive line. Present by @verizion

The New England Patriots have already clinched a spot in the playoffs, but they can clinch the AFC East in Week 17.

The Chicago Bears continue to earn league-wide respect, with second-year quarterback Caleb Williams at the center of the team’s rise. Ahead of a pivotal Week 17 matchup, San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan explained why the Bears quarterback creates unique challenges for defenses as Chicago pushes for improved playoff positioning after clinching a postseason berth.

Williams has elevated the Bears offense in 2025, blending raw arm talent with movement that stretches the structure of secondaries. The Bears enter the weekend with momentum, sitting at 11-4, as opposing coaches now must game plan around the threat Williams presents rather than...
