Where will Lamar Jackson go in 2023? That’s the question that’s living in many Baltimore Ravens fans right now. The star quarterback is yet to reach an agreement on a new contract, and it seems more and more likely that he won’t be with the team anymore. Because of that, the option of giving him […]

Anthony Richardson might be the most polarizing name in the 2023 NFL draft right now. The Florida star quarterback is one of the most physically impressive signal-callers in the nation. His insane Combine workout is a testament to that. However, there are concerns about his throwing mechanics and field processing. Some draft experts have drawn […]

The New York Giants are at an impasse with Daniel Jones regarding a contract extension (and possibly a franchise tag). After a stellar year under Brian Daboll, Jones is now looking for a hefty payday (north of $45 million per year). New York has indicated that they want to keep Jones around, but they want […]

The Las Vegas Raiders have fully committed to replacing their current quarterback Derek Carr. After a disappointing 2022 campaign, the team is fully ready to move on from the former first-round pick. However, the market for competitive QBs this offseason is, well, competitive. Plenty of other teams are interesting in trading for or signing a […]

Ja Morant was the center of media attention on Saturday after videos of him flashing a gun in a night club went viral. The Memphis Grizzlies star was already under fire after a lawsuit was filed against him for reportedly threatening a minor, among other things. Most people criticized Morant’s decision-making, saying that he needed […]

Well, there goes the Milwaukee Bucks’ dreams of running the table. It was inevitable that the team’s 16-game winning streak would come to an end at some point. That breaking point came against the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday night. Powered by an all-around effort, Joel Embiid and co. came into Fiserv Forum and edged out […]

Sunday night will be a big night for Golden State Warriors fans. The Dubs’ upcoming game against the Los Angeles Lakers will be the return of Stephen Curry from his leg injury he suffered a couple of weeks ago. Steph’s return comes at the perfect time, as Golden State is gearing up for one final […]

With the Chicago Bears sticking with Justin Fields, all eyes will be on what the team does with the first overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. The prevailing thought around the league is that the team will be trading down and acquiring more draft capital. A potential target for them later in the draft […]

Ja Morant found himself in the headlines once again for unsavory reasons. This time around, the Memphis Grizzlies star is in trouble for brandishing a gun while he was live on Instagram. Morant was also in a strip club during the Live when he showed his gun. It’s not a good look for him, especially […]

Jackson Mahomes was never truly liked in Kansas City, despite his brother Patrick’s best efforts. The brother of the Chiefs’ star quarterback is often seen as a nuisance by the fans. Jackson has also gotten into some trouble in the past for his… questionable actions. Now, Jackson Mahomes is facing allegations of assault (physical and […]

Oh boy. The New York Giants have a big, $45 million-sized problem with Daniel Jones. The former first-round pick is looking for a massive payday after having his best season in a New York jersey last year. However, the front office is not willing to give Jones that much money. So, what will the team […]

Another day, another controversy for Ja Morant. The Memphis Grizzlies star has been in hot water over the last few months for his questionable decisions off the court (most of which involve a gun or are related to guns). Recently, Morant got in trouble after allegations of him punching a minor and threatening a mall […]

Despite trading away their two top stars, the Brooklyn Nets are still in position to compete for a playoff spot in the East. The haul they got for Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving have played extremely well, with guys like Mikal Bridges and Spencer Dinwiddie stepping up. Now, the Nets are shoring up one of […]

Well, if you weren’t sure before that the Washington Commanders were rolling with Sam Howell, then you should be convinced by now. After just a year of disappointing play, Washington released QB Carson Wentz. That leaves the door open for Howell, a fourth-round pick last year, to take the reins of the offense. How does […]

This is what everyone’s been waiting for. After the Brooklyn Nets were torn apart at the trade deadline, fans have been waiting to see the next game between Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. That will now be happening on Sunday, as Durant and the Phoenix Suns travel to Dallas to facing Irving and the Dallas […]

It’s never too early to go for your dream player. The 2023 MLB offseason is still well underway, but one team seems to already be ten steps ahead of everyone for 2024. The Los Angeles Dodgers are reportedly the “favorites” to nab Angels star Shohei Ohtani in the next offseason, per Jon Heyman’s reporting. “Some […]

What is going on in the XFL? The up-and-coming rival of the NFL enjoyed an incredible start to their reboot season. However, after the hype died down, there has been a steady decline in ratings. It certainly doesn’t help when one of the teams, the Orlando Guardians, cut their QB after pulling off some ridiculous […]

Where should Lamar Jackson go next season? That is the question that many fans have tried to answer. Of course, Baltimore Ravens fans want for him to stay with the team (given a reasonably-priced contract, of course). However, there’s plenty of reasons why Jackson might consider a change in scenery. One of these reasons is […]

Anthony Richardson is going to the moon! Well, his draft stock, at least: the Florida QB has shot up the recent NFL Draft boards. Richardson’s talent on the ground is undeniable: he’s one of the best running QBs in the country. However, draft pundits have rightfully questioned the QB’s passing abilities. That part of his […]

The New York Giants have a lot of questions to answer about their starting QB and RB duo: Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley. Both players had monster 2022 seasons that helped New York make it to playoffs and even upset the Minnesota Vikings. As a result, both players are eligible for new contracts: a contract […]

Aaron Rodgers is perhaps the NFL’s most polarizing figure due to his rather interesting lifestyle. The star Green Bay Packers QB is not afraid to share his different rituals and practices, including his psychedelic use. Recently, though, Rodgers implied that there’s a conspiracy involving the spy balloons meant to distract people about the Jeffrey Epstein […]

Unless something goes horribly wrong, Bryce Young is expected to be the first overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft, and for good reason. The star Alabama QB turned heads throughout his college career with his excellent play. Despite his body of work, there is one major question around Young: his size. In his first […]

The Philadelphia Eagles promoted Brian Johnson to be their new offensive coordinator on Tuesday morning, and now they have hired a defensive coordinator: Seattle Seahawks associate head coach Sean Desai. The Eagles made the move official Tuesday afternoon after it was earlier reported by ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano that a deal was close. The […]

The Los Angeles Lakers continued their incredible streak a couple of days ago with a win against the Dallas Mavericks. However, it came at a hefty price: LeBron James suffered an ankle injury during the game. LeBron was able to play through the injury, but he was eventually ruled out for a couple of weeks. […]

2022 was a massive year for the Golden State Warriors. For the first time since Kevin Durant’s departure, the team won the NBA championship, besting the Boston Celtics. The team was not as loaded as the Hamptons 5-era GSW, but they were still pretty damn good. How does this team stack up against a different […]

Sean Payton is trying to build a better team with the Denver Broncos. After a supremely disappointing 2022, they are looking to bounce back stronger. With that in mind, Payton is trying to get the best possible coaches to guide the players. One of the names the Broncos targeted this year was Patriots defensive coordinator […]

The Chicago Bears are in a rather interesting situation entering the the 2023 NFL draft. They own the first pick in the draft, and there are a couple of talented QBs who are available. However, they also have a rather promising QB prospect in Justin Fields, who showed remarkable growth last year. What will Chicago […]

Who will be the Green Bay Packers’ quarterback for the 2023 season? There are a ton of questions around star Aaron Rodgers, who has just recently emerged from his “darkness retreat”. Will Rodgers stick around for one more year? And if he does, will Green Bay trade him? There are more questions here, but Brian […]

After an epic run to the Super Bowl that fell just short, the Philadelphia Eagles find themselves with two holes in their coaching staff. Their previous offensive and defensive coordinators were both hired to coach different teams (OC Shane Steichen to Indianapolis Colts, DC Jonathan Gannon to Arizona Cardinals). As a result, the team had […]

The Cincinnati Bengals had a pretty good 2022 season, and yet there’s an air of disappointment around the team. Yes, they did prove that their Super Bowl run was no fluke: they were in the playoffs again and made it all the way to the AFC Championship Game. However… they lost a heartbreaker to the […]

The marquee Finals rematch between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Phoenix Suns is not looking great so far. Already, Phoenix star Kevin Durant is officially listed as out. Now, Giannis Antetokounmpo has been ruled out by Mike Budenholzer due to a quad injury he suffered a couple of games ago, per Jamal Collier. “Giannis Antetokounmpo […]

The Philadelphia 76ers and Boston Celtics battled in one of the most entertaining games of the season. It wasn’t a complete and total shootout like the Clippers-Kings affair a day ago, but it went down to the wire. After Jayson Tatum nailed a tough jumper to put the Cs up, Joel Embiid heaved up a […]

Earlier this week, there were some rumors circulating about New York Knicks PG Derrick Rose potentially being bought out. The former MVP finds himself at the end of the rotation as the new-look New York squad starts to find their groove. The Phoenix Suns are reportedly interested in Rose, too, leading to more talk about […]

The Chicago Bears have an interesting conundrum on their hands. Last season saw Justin Fields break out as an excellent running QB. Fields also flashed some of the arm talent that tantalized many draft experts. In any other year, this would mean that Fields’ job security would be intact. However, this also happens to be […]

Dan Snyder still has not been able to find the right suitor to buy the Washington Commanders. The controversial owner is trying to sell his team after being involved in some scandals in the last year or so. One of the biggest parties reportedly interested in the team is Amazon owner Jeff Bezos. However, Snyder’s […]

What will the Baltimore Ravens do with Lamar Jackson? The franchise QB of the team for most of his career, Jackson’s stay in Baltimore might be ending soon in some shape or form. Many are discussing a potential trade as the only way this ordeal ends. However, there’s also the possibility that Lamar Jackson joins […]

It is frustrating for Denver Nuggets fans to see Nikola Jokic get mauled every single game. Generally speaking, NBA stars get a much tighter whistle on contact they draw. It’s one of the unwritten rules that most fans know about. It seems as if Jokic is the exception, though: every Denver game ends with him […]

The Los Angeles Lakers have looked pretty good as of late, but they will be fighting a tough battle on Sunday against the Dallas Mavericks. Luka Doncic is always a terrifying beast to deal with for defense. Now, with the addition of Kyrie Irving, it becomes even harder to defend this team. Ahead of their […]

The Chicago Cubs are cooking something for the 2023 season! After a supremely disappointing campaign last year, the team did not waste any time revamping their roster. Their biggest acquisitions were names like Atlanta Braves shortstop Dansby Swanson, Los Angeles Dodgers OF Cody Bellinger, and New York Yankees RHP Jameson Taillon. However, one of these […]
