The Chicago Bears are on a roll. They have reeled off five consecutive wins, and the most impressive victory was their 24-15 Black Friday triumph over the Philadelphia Eagles on the road.

Beating the defending Super Bowl champions at this point in the season is a major statement. There is no doubt that the rest of the league will take the Bears seriously from this point forward. However, the greatest thing that can come from that clear victory is the confidence that the Bears have in themselves.

Chicago had waited until the last moments of the fourth quarter to beat...

Pittsburgh Steelers fans are starting to get disillusioned with Mike Tomlin. The long-time head coach is well-revered with a ton of accomplishments. Over the last few years, though, the Steelers have simply been treading water. Tomlin continues to churn out winning season after winning seasons, but it hasn’t led to meaningful playoff success.

This season might be most fans’ final straw with the legendary head coach. The Steelers were spotted with a division lead early in the season, with the Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals struggling early in the season. However, Pittsburgh has squandered that division lead now, with the...

The Pittsburgh Steelers searched high and low all offseason and much of the season leading up to the trade deadline searching for a wide receiver to complement DK Metcalf. GM Omar Khan struck out in that search. But he might have found an answer on Tuesday on waivers. The Steelers were awarded 35-year-old wide receiver […]

At this point, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers can practically do anything he wants, especially on his birthday.

Rodgers turned 42 on Tuesday, and he celebrated it in the most Rodgers-ian way.

According to Steelers reporter Gerry Dulac, the four-time MVP invited his teammates to his home for a party. A viewing party, that is.

“Aaron Rodgers had his receivers, tight ends, and RBs (running backs) to his house tonight to watch film and go over plays. Ben Skowronek brought a decorated cake and the players sang ‘Happy Birthday’ to Rodgers,” wrote Dulac on X.

Come to the party, they...

Adam Thielen’s reunion tour with the Minnesota Vikings didn’t last long. After being traded to Minnesota during the offseason, Thielen requested to be released this week. The front office quickly accommodated his request, allowing him to test free agency. Thielen quickly found a new home, signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Thielen said that with this season being his final year, he wanted to compete on the field instead of chasing a win. His wife Caitlin corroborated that on Instagram, saying that the former Vikings wide receiver doesn’t care too much about “ring-chasing” at this point.

“It’s not even about wins...

If not for the innate chaos that their division brings, the Baltimore Ravens would be in deep trouble by now. After a sluggish start marred by an injury to Lamar Jackson, it seemed like the Ravens were out of the playoff picture. However, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ collapse in recent weeks and Jackson’s return gave Baltimore an opportunity to steal the AFC North from under their noses.

In true AFC North fashion, though, the universe decided to throw another curveball at the division. The Ravens were in a prime position to take a good hold on the division against the Cincinnati...

For his 42nd birthday, Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers got more than a new wide receiver in Adam Thielen. He got an informal film session to try to get his offense back on track.
