The photo features Beanie Bishop Jr., Cory Trice Jr., Brandin Echols, Darius Slay, Mel Blount, Jalen Ramsey, […]
A loss on Sunday dropped the Cowboys to 2-3-1, although there have been some signs of life. Dallas has collected 178 points through six games, good for third in the NFL. Much of that production has come without offensive star CeeDee Lamb, with the likes of George Pickens, Jake Ferguson, and Javonte Williams stepping up.
On the flip side, the Cowboys are rostering one of the worst defenses in the league, as the team’s 184 points allowed is the second-worst mark in the NFL. Jerry Jones believes his team is close to contention and could patch up the defense with...
Lions DL Mekhi Wingo was ready to play Week 1 after having a second knee surgery this summer, but he has since been inactive as the injury flared back up. Detroit HC Dan Campbell believes they need to let Wingo have more time at practice to get to full health, and he pointed to their defensive line depth as a reason they feel comfortable in doing so.
*“It was good to get him in there for a game. And then we just felt like, ‘Hey man, lets give this guy some more time just to get his legs...
The 2025 NFL season is now a third of the way through, giving fantasy football managers everything they can handle ahead of Week 7. With the waiver wire becoming an increasingly important element of fantasy football, identifying the right players to drop is just as crucial.
A lot has transpired through six games, changing many players’ roles from what they were in Week 1. Injuries have been a part of the game, as per usual, along with the annual surprises.
With six weeks now in the books, fantasy football managers have a good idea of what to expect moving forward....
The A.J. Brown rumors are starting to heat up. Last week, we heard that the receiver was frustrated with his role in the Eagles offense, and that report was accompanied by a highly publicized meeting between Brown, Jalen Hurts, and Saquon Barkley. Following a second-straight Eagles loss, it sounds like the frustrations aren’t letting up.
While the Eagles have continually stated that they won’t trade Brown, multiple NFL executives told Dianna Russini of The Athletic that they believe the receiver will eventually be on the move. One source noted the player’s apparent indifference, which could be especially worrisome for a...
In his career, Ben Roethlisberger dominated the Cleveland Browns, going 26-2-1 against them. In retirement, he’s enjoyed joking about them, even saying that the Pittsburgh Steelers would have a second bye when they played the Browns in Week 6. However, after the game, Roethlisberger was left surprised by how poorly the Browns played. “They are […]
Following the abrupt trade from Cleveland to Jacksonville, CB Greg Newsome II reflected on the mindset difference going from a one-win team to a four-win team coming off a win against the Chiefs.
“Obviously in Cleveland, you’re sitting there mad: ‘We’ve got to find a way, we’ve got to find a way,'” Newsome said, via ESPN’s Michael DiRocco. “And then when I get here, I’m like, ‘Wow, we just won.’ Obviously, I didn’t play, but we just won. So, yeah, it feels amazing.
*“I’m just going to try to do my best to help them keep this upward...
Clay Martin, promoted to referee in 2018, will work the Steelers-Bengals game on Thursday Night Football. It will be the first prime-time game for Martin and his crew this season, who have worked six games. NFL Communications announced that Martin would referee the game in the Week 7 game capsule. Martin’s crew has called offensive […]
The Chicago Bears have won three games in a row. I repeat, the Chicago Bears have won three games in a row.
While it feels like it’s been a long time since that happened, it was just last year, but then the wheels fell off. This feels different because of the coaching, because it really feels like something is actually being built.
These gritty, come-from-behind wins instill belief and bury the here we go again feelings that permeated the franchise under Matt Eberflus.
Let’s take a look around at how the Bears are ranked by the various outlets around.

Not long ago, the Steelers’ opening drives felt pointless — they may as well have just punted on the first play to get it over with. But under OC Arthur Smith, those first few plays are suddenly worth watching, and they’re producing in a big way. Just look at the first play of the game […]
After firing head coach Brian Callahan on Monday, the 1-5 Titans will move forward with Mike McCoy handling the role on an interim basis. It’s improbable that McCoy will fare well enough to take over on a full-time basis, meaning the Titans’ head coach for 2026 is likely to come from outside the organization. With that in mind, Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy and Steelers OC Arthur Smith are early names to watch, Ian Rapoport of NFL.com reports.
While the Titans hired a first-time head coach in Callahan, they’d be getting an experienced option in Nagy, who led the...
Pittsburgh Steelers fans have not been Connor Heyward’s biggest supporters over the years. Playing on the same team as his brother, Cam, many attribute Connor’s presence to nepotism rather than anything else. During the Steelers’ win last Sunday, Connor got a chance to fire back at his haters, catching a key touchdown pass in the […]
