One destination that has been floated […]

Justin Fields and the Chicago Bears could not have had a much worse start to the 2023 season. The Bears currently sit at an NFL worst 0-4, and Fields has largely failed to live up to the lofty expectations impressed upon him by fans after his solid campaign in 2022. Adding to the drama is […]

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry has established himself as one of the most savvy players in the NBA during his long career.

The Philadelphia 76ers recently opened up their training camp for the 2023-24 campaign, and noticeably absent was star guard James Harden, who requested a trade earlier this summer.

Nikola Vucevic and the Chicago Bulls are looking to bounce back after what was a frustrating 2022-23 campaign.

Now, Vucevic is speaking out about […]

It hasn’t been a great start to the 2023 NFL season for Bryce Young and the Carolina Panthers. Although Young has shown flashes of living up to his number one pick status, the Panthers currently sit winless at 0-4, and their lack of offensive productivity thus far is a big reason why. Now, it seems […]

CJ Stroud and the Houston Texans have gotten off to a relatively surprising start to the 2023 season.

After the game, […]

The New England Patriots had an all-around rough afternoon during Sunday’s road loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

Ed Oliver and the Buffalo Bills improved their 2023 record to 3-1 with a dominant home victory over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.
