As the old saying goes, if you’re not starting on offense or defense, you better be starting on special teams. When it comes to the 2025 Pittsburgh Steelers, that adage doesn’t hold true. While every team has their share of players who aren’t logging 40 snaps per game, the Steelers have a chunk of their […]

Coming off a tough 31-28 loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 12, things don’t get any easier for the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 13. Though they return home to Acrisure Stadium, a massive matchup awaits with Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo is really banged up entering the matchup, especially along the offensive […]

The Philadelphia Eagles were looking to bounce back after a brutal second-half collapse against the Dallas Cowboys last Sunday. Fans were outraged when Philadelphia blew a 21-0 lead in Week 12. Dallas put up 24 unanswered points while holding the Eagles scoreless over the final two and a half quarters.

On Friday, Philly fans were again howling for blood as the Eagles got off to a rough start against the Chicago Bears. Philadelphia went on to suffer its second straight crushing defeat, falling to 8-4 on the season as the Bears won, 24-15.

Demands for head coach Nick Sirianni and...

On paper, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts outgunned Caleb Williams on Black Friday. Hurts finished out the game with more completions on fewer attempts, recording one more touchdown with the same number of interceptions to go with an RTG of 84.2, which is 27.3 higher than the Chicago Bears’ signal caller’s 56.9.

And yet, in the NFL, what matters above all others is winning, and Hurts’ team came out on the wrong end of that equation thanks in no small part to the Super Bowl MVP not being on the same page as some of his receivers.

Discussing his inability...

On Tuesday, we saw Broncos linebacker Alex Singleton confirm that he intended to fulfill expectations of a Week 13 return from injury, and today we saw the same from cornerback Patrick Surtain. Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Surtain will go into Sunday night’s contest without an injury designation and should play for the first time this month.

We had known for weeks that the injury Surtain sustained against Dallas back in October was a pectoral injury. Other than that, all we were told was that he was week-to-week and that he may not need a full injured reserve stint...

Caleb Williams did not even try to pretend it was normal seeing his head coach shirtless in the locker room after a grind-it-out win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

“He did take his shirt off. He’s a man of the people, let’s say that,” Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams told reporters when asked about Ben Johnson’s now-viral celebration following Chicago’s 24-15 Black Friday win in Philadelphia.

Here are Friday’s minor NFL transactions:

Atlanta Falcons

• Signed to active roster: WR Dylan Drummond

Washington Commanders

• Waived: WR Robbie Chosen

With leading receiver Drake London set to miss his second straight game with a knee injury, Drummond joins the 53-man roster off the taxi squad. He was unable to be a standard gameday practice squad elevation, since he’d already been elevated three times this year.

Chosen is headed to the waiver wire after three games with Washington. He caught five balls for 53 yards on eight targets as an elevation off the practice squad, but after getting...

Is the return of Joe Burrow enough for this roster to play like a competitive professional football team? It sure seemed like it last night as the Bengals dominated the Ravens in Baltimore, 32-14.

Since Burrow’s injury back in September, the Bengals have posted a whopping 1-8 record and are now in a deep hole to keep any chance of the playoffs alive.

But, no need to fear, Joe Burrow is here, and his presence alone created an entirely new confidence in all three phases.

One of the biggest issues for this roster’s success has been the inability to draft...

The Chicago Bears didn’t expect the noise around their Week 13 visit to Lincoln Financial Field to revolve around revenge, reunions, or resume games. But for running back D’Andre Swift, the stakes carried a different pulse.

When asked after the Bears’ 24-15 victory what kind of message Chicago delivered by winning in Philadelphia (8-4), Swift finally dropped the facade.

“We’re for real,” Swift said via ESPN’s Courtney Coronin.

Earlier in the week, Swift worked hard to temper the subplot. When he was asked about facing his former team under the lights, he offered calm, direct answers without adding emotional seasoning....

The Chicago Bears dominated the Philadelphia Eagles on the road in Week 13. The Bears improved to 9-3 with Friday’s 24-15 victory. And Chicago’s defense shined, creating two turnovers and holding Saquon Barkley and Philadelphia’s ground game to just 87 rushing yards.

Friday’s matchup was a revenge game for CJ Gardner-Johnson. The veteran defender won the Super Bowl with the Eagles last year but was traded to the Houston Texans over the offseason. After getting released by Houston, Gardner-Johnson eventually ended up in Chicago. And he was motivated to face his former team in Week 13.

Following the Bears’ big...

The Chicago Bears did it again.

For the second straight week, they knocked off a first-place team, but this time, their 24-15 win over the Philadelphia Eagles moved them up to the number two seed in the NFC.

This Sunday, the top-seeded Rams play at the Carolina Panthers, and if they lose, the Bears will move up to the number one position in the NFC. That’ll hold true even if the Seahawks win, because Chicago is (6-2) in the conference, while Seattle is currently (4-3).

Today’s practice squad transactions from around the NFL:

Green Bay Packers

• Signed: K Lucas Havrisik

New England Patriots

• Signed: RB Craig Reynolds
• Released: RB Rushawn Baker

Finding himself on waivers after missing two extra point attempts at MetLife last weekend, Havrisik went unclaimed on the waiver wire. Brandon McManus is back off the injury report, but Havrisik will remain on the taxi squad in Green Bay, just in case.

Reynolds’ five-year run in Detroit finally has come to an end. Originally an undrafted free agent out of Kutztown University in 2019, Reynolds bounced around before landing with...
