Last season, the Indianapolis Colts were a win away from reaching the playoffs. However, they lost their final two games including a blowout loss in Jacksonville to the Jaguars, keeping them out. In that game, then Colts quarterback Carson Wentz played terribly. That led to the team moving on and deciding to sign aging veteran […]

Everyone knows that Aaron Judge is getting closer and closer to surpassing Roger Maris’ Yankees record for most home runs in a season. Maris hit 61 home runs way back in 1961. Entering play Sunday, Judge was sitting on 57 home runs with two weeks to play in the regular season. But what many people […]

The Dallas Cowboys were not given much of a shot Sunday to beat the Cincinnati Bengals. They were without their star quarterback Dak Prescott, who is expected to miss the next month or so. Most people figured Dallas would struggle to contain Joe Burrow and the Bengals passing game, particularly wideout Ja’Marr Chase. Well, Pro […]

The Los Angeles Rams bounced back after a poor performance in Week 1 to beat the Atlanta Falcons, 31-27. However, they nearly let the game slip away. The Rams actually led 28-3 at one point. However, they found themselves in a dog fight late in the fourth quarter. All-Pro wide receiver Cooper Kupp was almost […]

The Arizona Cardinals entered Sunday’s game coming off a deflating loss in their season opener against the Kansas City Chiefs. On Sunday, they were staring 0-2 in the face. They looked completely lost both on offense and defense and trailed the Las Vegas Raiders 23-7 entering the fourth quarter. That’s when the game turned. Cardinals […]

The New York Jets pulled off a miraculous victory Sunday against the Cleveland Browns, spoiling their home opener 31-30. What made the win truly improbably was the situation the Jets found themselves in late. Any team trailing by 13 or more points with under two minutes left had lost 2,331 consecutive games. That streak ended […]

Houston Astros starting pitcher Framber Valdez made Major League Baseball history on Sunday. The Astros hammered the Oakland Athletics 11-2 as Valdez improved to 16-5 on the season. Valdez finished tossing six innings, allowing two runs on four hits and a walk with seven strikeouts. In doing so, Valdez completed his 25th consecutive quality start […]

The Miami Dolphins pulled off a shocker on Sunday. They trailed the Baltimore Ravens 28-7 entering the fourth quarter and came back to win 42-38. In the process, both Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle went absolutely bananas in the win. Hill finished with 11 catches for 190 yards and two touchdowns. Meanwhile, his teammate Jaylen […]

The Indianapolis Colts entered the 2022 NFL season with lofty goals and high expectations. Through two weeks, they find themselves in last place of the AFC South and have been embarrassed twice. Normally, a Week 1 tie is not embarrassing but when it’s against the Houston Texans it is. But on Sunday, things went from […]

The Baltimore Ravens are likely shell shocked after blowing a 21-p0int fourth quarter lead to the Miami Dolphins. They led 28-7 entering the final quarter. Yet, Tua Tagovailoa engineered a massive comeback that saw the Dolphins pull off the upset, 42-38. After the game, Ravens Pro Bowl tight end Mark Andrews was asked his thoughts […]

Last season, Dallas Cowboys rookie linebacker Micah Parsons set the league on fire. He was integral to the team’s success on his way to winning NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, as well as the NFC Defensive Player of the Year. Fans and teammates alike have heaped praise on Parsons, but even a former Cowboys […]

The Los Angeles Chargers appeared to have lost more than just their game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday night. During the fourth quarter of a 27-24 loss, quarterback Justin Herbert took a huge hit and landed awkwardly. The rest of the game, he lingered in pain and many believed he might have broken […]

The Arizona Cardinals have been hit with the injury bug even before the 2022 season began. Second year wide receiver Rondale Moore was unavailable in their Week 1 crushing loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. With All-Pro wideout DeAndre Hopkins still serving his six-game suspension for testing positive for performance enhancing drugs, that left Cardinals […]

The Cincinnati Bengals received some good news on Friday as wide receiver Tee Higgins returned to practice. Higgins left the Bengals Week 1 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers after sustaining a concussion early in the game. He missed practice on Thursday, but according to ESPN reporter Ed Werder, that was for a different reason entirely. […]

The Detroit Lions were decimated with injuries, particularly to their offensive line, in Sunday’s Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Starting center Frank Ragnow, along with left tackle Taylor Decker and left guard Jonah Jackson, were in and out of the lineup in the 38-35 loss. On Thursday, Lions head coach Dan Campbell had […]

The Baltimore Ravens were destroyed by injuries in 2021. Both JK Dobbins and Marcus Peters were injured in training camp and missed the entire season. Neither player was able to suit up for their Week 1 victory over the New York Jets. On Thursday, the Ravens provided good news to fans as both Dobbins and […]

The Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is coming off of a stellar season debut. He caught nine passes for 121 yards and a touchdown in the Week 1 tie with the Houston Texans. Pittman Jr. did not appear to be injured during the game, but he was limited in practice on Wednesday. That […]

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers could be very short handed at wide receiver for their NFC South matchup against the New Orleans Saints Sunday. Both Mike Evans and Julio Jones missed practice on Thursday. Fellow wideout Chris Godwin is already highly unlikely to suit up for the rivalry game. Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady might be left […]

The Detroit Lions almost pulled off a huge comeback victory in Week 1 against the Philadelphia Eagles. They ultimately fell 38-35 in a shootout. During the loss, Lions running back D’Andre Swift hurt his ankle. After the game, he talked about it being a non-issue and that he did not expect to miss any time. […]

The Indianapolis Colts entered the 2022 NFL season with very high expectations. After all, the roster is chalk full of talent. They have arguably the best running back in the game in Jonathan Taylor. They added former NFL MVP Matt Ryan to play quarterback. Their defense was top 10 last year and should be again […]

The Carolina Panthers lost a tough, hard-fought game against the Cleveland Browns in Week 1, 26-24. In the loss, superstar running back Christian McCaffrey had only 10 carries and 14 total touches. For someone as explosive and dynamic a player as McCaffrey, that simply isn’t enough. Panthers offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo clearly agrees, as noted […]

On Monday night, the Denver Broncos opened their season up taking on the Seattle Seahawks. It was Russell Wilson’s return to Seattle, right out of the gate in Week 1 after leaving for Denver. Because of that, it was one of the more anticipated games of the weekend. Many people were wondering what type of […]

The Green Bay Packers are coming off of a dreadful Week 1 performance in a 23-7 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Aaron Rodgers and the offense could never get on track, particularly in the passing game. Much of that seems to have to do with the lack of experience at the wide receiver position. On […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Tom Brady shocked the NFL world when he announced his retirement this offseason. A month later, he shocked everyone again coming out of his retirement. Recent reports have concluded that Brady’s wife, Giselle Bundchen, was frustrated with Brady’s decision to return. After all, she has had to downshift her career as […]

Aaron Judge is having a truly historic season. On Tuesday, the Yankees superstar slugged two more home runs, bringing his season total up to 57. He is just four home runs away from a New York record set by Roger Maris. It’s also the record for most in a season, as believed by many baseball […]

The Green Bay Packers entered the 2022 NFL season having won the NFC North three straight years and eight of the last 11. But if they want to do that again, things are going to have to change in a hurry. I know, I know, a lot of people will point to the 38-3 Week […]

The New England Patriots suffered an ugly Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins 20-7. Despite a decent defensive effort, the Patriots offense was, well, offensive. They finished the game with just 271 total yards. Mac Jones struggled to find rhythm passing. The wide receivers could not create any space whatsoever. The running game was […]

The Dallas Cowboys are seemingly always in the news. Part of that is because they are America’s Team. Everyone either loves them or loves to hate them. But also, certain media personnel like Skip Bayless can’t help but talk about them all of the time. Bayless is likely the biggest Cowboys apologist in the media. […]

The Chicago White Sox have had one of the most tumultuous seasons in recent history in 2022. They have dealt with a number of injuries to key players, making it hard for there to be any consistency in the lineup or rotation. But most recently, they lost their manager to health issues as well. Tony […]

The Houston Astros are in prime position to make yet another deep run in the playoffs. Entering play Tuesday night, Houston sits atop the American League West by a ridiculous 11.5 games over the Seattle Mariners. More importantly, they lead the New York Yankees by six games for home field advantage throughout the AL playoffs. […]

The Los Angeles Chargers defense looked formidable in their Week 1 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Their new linebacker pass rusher extraordinaire, Khalil Mack, recorded three sacks in his first game in a Chargers uniform. However, Davante Adams had a massive performance against the Chargers secondary, reeling in 10 catches for 141 yards and […]

The Dallas Cowboys had about as poor of a start to their season as possible. They got drubbed at home by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 19-3.

The Philadelphia Eagles won their season opener against the Detroit Lions, 38-35. In the process, newly acquired wide receiver AJ Brown reeled in 10 catches for over 150 yards. Meanwhile, the team’s leading receiver from last season, DeVonta Smith, was held without a catch. Considering Smith was once a highly touted receiver out of Alabama, […]

Week 1 of the NFL season was crazy. There were a bunch of upsets and some amazing finishes. Arguably none were better than the head-scratching ending Monday night, which has put Nathaniel Hackett under the microscope. Hackett made the controversial decision to attempt a game-winning 64-yard field goal in the closing seconds instead of attempting […]

The Chicago White Sox season has been marred with one injury after another. All Star shortstop Tim Anderson was placed on the 15-day injured list after having surgery in early August to repair a sagittal band tear in his middle finger on his left hand. The injury prompted the White Sox to sign veteran Elvis […]

New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge blasted his 55th home run of the season on Wednesday in the first game of a doubleheader against the Minnesota Twins Wednesday. From there on out, the Twins basically refused to pitch to the behemoth. Judge was intentionally walked three times during the night cap. After the game, Judge […]

The Las Vegas Raiders made arguably the biggest splash in the NFL’s offseason this year when they traded with the Green Bay Packers for All-Pro wide receiver Davante Adams. Raiders QB Derek Carr and Adams were teammates at Fresno State for two years where they combined for over 3,000 yards and 38 touchdowns. On Wednesday, […]

The Golden State Warriors captured their fourth NBA Championship over the last eight years last season. They defeated the Boston Celtics in six games to win the title. Early on during their playoff run, backup guard Gary Payton II played an important role for the Warriors. He became one of the better defensive players on […]

The New York Yankees were scuffling hard recently. Their once 15.5 game division lead had been dwindled down to 4.5 games. Thankfully for the Yankees, their patsies came to town at just the right time. New York opened up a four-game series against the Minnesota Twins on Monday. The Yankees won the first two games […]
