The NFL continues to be as unpredictable as ever through 12 weeks of the season. Twelve teams have a .500 or better record in the AFC, setting up a wild final six weeks. The Pats lead the AFC East by half a game, but face the Bills in the first of two meetings next week. […]
Sunday had a changing of the guard feeling in Cincinnati, as the Bengals ran roughshod over the visiting Steelers, a team that for decades had been a thorn in Cincinnati’s side. The victory marked the Bengals’ first three-game winning streak over the Steelers since 1990 and Cincinnati’s first season sweep of Pittsburgh since 2009. The […]
The Minnesota Vikings may be without their star running back for a while, as Dalvin Cook was injured late in the third quarter of the Vikings’ 34-26 Week 12 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. On a first-down carry with his team trailing 31-26, Cook was tackled in the backfield and stripped of the ball. Cook […]
New England held a 16-13 lead heading into the halftime locker room, but the defense was able to shut the door over the final two quarters. On a second-and-4 run in the third quarter, D’Onta Foreman ripped off a 30-yard run that was set to flip the field for Tennessee as they trailed by six. […]
Nagy is under heavy fire from fans, there was a strong push from that fanbase for a coaching change last year, and the team has been a tough watch for most of this season, including an ugly win at Detroit on Thanksgiving. General manager Ryan Pace’s job is in the balance as well, after repeated […]
Initially labeled as questionable, Haden’s foot injury will keep him out of Sunday’s road game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Pierre, who made Pittsburgh’s initial 53-man roster following an impressive preseason, replaced Haden in the starting lineup during the Steelers’ 41-37 loss to the Chargers last Sunday night. Pierre, who gave up a deep touchdown pass […]
Packers picks, make sure you check out the NFL predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up almost $7,300 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception six-plus years ago. Aaron Rodgers tallied season-high 385 passing yards with four touchdowns last week, but it […]
The New Orleans Saints have dropped four consecutive games to fall out of the NFC playoff race — and Taysom Hill hasn’t taken a single snap at quarterback. “He was still going through the week,” Payton said after the game. He has been active the last two games, yet hasn’t played a snap due to […]
Josh Allen finished with four touchdowns, Stefon Diggs showed off his All-Pro route-running, and the Bills’ defense had no trouble bottling up New Orleans’ injury-riddled lineup from start to finish en route to a smooth-sailing 31-6 victory to improve to 7-4. Josh Allen got himself into trouble a few times in the first half, forcing […]
But who won and lost Turkey Day? Who should be making themselves another dinner plate to celebrate their day, and who should be cramming food down their gullet in sorrow? We’re here to tell you. The Bills looked a lot like contenders once again, waxing the Saints into the Superdome turf with Josh Allen, Stefon […]
The Chicago Bears made sure they weren’t going to be the first team to lose to the Detroit Lions in 2021. A series of coaching errors by Dan Campbell and the Lions coaching staff followed as the Bears were set to kick the go-ahead field goal and give Detroit the ball back with under two […]
Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen has come out of his home without incident and is getting cared for following an incident at his residence, the team announced in a statement on Wednesday afternoon. According to the Minnesota Public Safety Department, Griffen said on the call that someone was inside his home and that he needed […]
Peterson scored his lone touchdown with the Titans in his first game of the season against the Los Angeles Rams back in Week 9, and had what was probably his best outing for Tennessee this past Sunday, rushing nine times for 40 yards. He’s been just as big a part of the run game over […]
Phillip Lindsay didn’t have to wait too long to find a new home in the NFL. The Dolphins were in need of a talent injection in their backfield as they’ve been one of the worst teams at running the football throughout the NFL. In Houston, Lindsay was used sparingly as he seemed to get lost […]
There have been eight such wins this season, tied with the 1974 campaign for the most wins by teams over an opponent who had at least four more wins on the season through Week 11. Since Week 9, there have been 11 wins by teams with a .500-or-lower winning percentage against division leaders, the most […]
We had another wild Sunday when it comes to the top teams in the NFL, as the Tennessee Titans were upset by the Houston Texans, 22-13, the Buffalo Bills were blasted by the Indianapolis Colts, 41-15, and the Green Bay Packers were out-dueled by Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings, 34-31. Here’s a breakdown of […]
Week 12 of the NFL is set to be an exciting one with nine games featuring two teams with .500-or-better records, the most such games in Week 12 or later in league history. Fields has officially been ruled out, so Andy Dalton will start at quarterback for the Bears. For the Lions, Goff called himself […]
It pits two of the truly iconic men at their profession – legends in the history of professional sports in this country – against one another with everything on the line. For starters, I can’t see the future, even one week ahead, or else I would have a far better record with my Best Bets […]
They’re built for the home stretch. They are sloppy. That’s it for 2021. Simple and maybe obvious, but there was a time, early this year, where they looked like one of the AFC’s best. But twice in the last three weeks, he and their arsenal of weapons have sputtered in the face of heat in […]
