Are the Pittsburgh Steelers holding Justin Fields back from reaching his full potential? Has Arthur Smith opted to make things easy for the former OSU signal caller, avoiding risky shots in favor of high-percentage under passing concepts? Have the Steelers put “training wheels” on their QB1? Steelers legend Ben Roethlisberger was asked that very question […]

Even after taking their first loss of the season in Week 4, it’s hard to argue with the month the Seattle Seahawks turned in this September. With a new head coach, Mike Macdonald, calling the shots, an elite defense with an in-vogue scheme, and a point differential of +17, Geno Smith has led his team […]

After sitting through four incredibly stressful games to start the 2024 NFL season, it’s clear the Eagles’ players aren’t the only ones who need a rest but instead the Philadelphia fans too, as this last month has been a mess of emotions. Fortunately, just because the Eagles won’t be playing doesn’t mean the team can’t […]

With CM Punk set to wrestle the most important match of his WWE return at Bad Blood in a Hell in the Cell battle against Drew McIntyre, fans, pundits, and even the “Best in the World” alike are taking a trip down memory lane to evaluate his comeback journey through the promotion. Discussing how his […]

With Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp currently out of action with a PCL Sprain and an ankle injury, respectively, the Los Angeles Rams have had to get creative with their offensive skills players. On one hand, a near-constant shuffling of players across the roster has made it hard for the Rams to find any cohesion […]

In case you somehow haven’t heard, Seth Rollins made his triumphant return to Monday Night RAW during its main event Last Monster Standing match, with “The Visionary” stomping out “Big” Bronson Reed in revenge for his previous Tsunami-induced attack that wrote him off of television since August. Now granted, Rollins’ return shouldn’t have come as […]

When news broke that the Raiders and Davante Adams were rapidly approaching a split, with Las Vegas reportedly open to a trade package centered around a second-round pick for the former three-time All-Pro, it sent shockwaves across the NFL landscape. Would Adams end up with the New York Jets, reuniting with Aaron Rodgers for the […]

In Week 4, the Los Angeles Rams were dealt a difficult defeat at the hands of the Chicago Bears, 24-18. A late fourth-quarter Matthew Stafford interception, a second-quarter fumble, and a missed field goal just before the half ultimately proved costly. But the Rams didn’t have to rely on a series of flukes to stay […]

When Adam Schefter sent it out into the ether on The Pat McAfee Show that Panthers wide receiver Diontae Johnson might be placed on the block should the Carolina continue to struggle because “he’s going to leave Carolina after this year anyway,” it turned heads around the NFL world. Suddenly, teams like the Kansas City […]

Though he’s now officially out of the professional football business, at least on the field, Jason Kelce is still incredibly dialed into the Philadelphia Eagles, remaining in support of his former squad despite building a minor media empire between his role at ESPN, his various commercials, and his New Heights podcast alongside his brother Travis. […]

After months and months of anticipation, it finally happened: Tony Khan and AEW have officially announced a new media rights deal between the promotion and their long-term home, Warner Brothers Discovery. While the terms of the deal haven’t been officially announced in AEW’s initial press release, the number is reportedly “valued at upwards of $150 […]

With Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua out for the past few weeks alongside, well, about a dozen other quality players, Sean McVay, and the Los Angeles Rams have been afforded extra chances to examine young players largely thrust into action out of necessity. One such player who has impressed McVay is none other than Jordan […]

When TKO let it be known that WWE was going to run fewer house shows in 2025, it left fans conflicted about the development, from fans in smaller markets all the way up to Cody Rhodes, the top star in the WWE Universe. While Rhodes doesn’t need to appear on every house show per se, […]

When the Philadelphia Eagles traded a third-round pick and two sevenths to acquire Jahan Dotson from the Washington Commanders, it looked like Nick Sirianni had finally found his WR3 of the present and maybe the future. A former first-round pick out of Penn State, Dotson was a fairly productive player for Washington over the past […]

After spending weeks trashing Trick Williams, trashing CM Punk, and even trashing his former employer, AEW, “All Ego” Ethan Page was handed his just desserts on the first episode of NXT on The CW, when, after trying to bend the rules like heels often do, he was handed a defeat and then a GTS as […]

Over the summer, fans of the Philadelphia Eagles were greeted with near-daily reports of how efficiently Jalen Hurts was throwing the ball during training camp, how many days in a row he went without throwing an interception, and how great his supporting cast looked against Vic Fangio’s defense, with everyone from Johnny Wilson to Britain […]

When the Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Atlanta Falcons in Week 1, it felt like a fluke. When the Steelers defeated the Broncos in Week 2, it felt like an okay team beating up on a bad one. And in Week 3, when the Steelers defeated the Los Angeles Chargers, it finally felt like Justin Fields […]

With professional wrestling the hottest it’s ever been, with WWE putting up some of its biggest numbers ever while AEW is about to announce a new media rights deal that could come in at as much as $200 million a year, performers all over the sport, from the very top guys like Cody Rhodes and […]

When ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter formally announced to the football world that not only was Davante Adams looking to be traded by the Raiders but that Las Vegas was willing to “consider” a deal if another team offered up a package headlined by a second-round pick, it turned heads around the NFL, especially among […]

With Week 4 officially in the books, the NFL has dished out a suspension to star Buffalo Bills edge rusher Von Miller, who, according to Tom Pelissero, will miss the next four games due to a Personal Conduct Policy violation. “Von Miller of the Buffalo Bills is suspended four games without pay for violating the […]

After looking like one of the most hapless teams in the entire NFL, the Tennessee Titans became the latest team to get supercharged by swapping out a young quarterback for a proven arm, as, after Will Levis exited the game with an injury, Mason Rudolph marched onto the field and went to work, going 9-17 […]

At 2-2, the Philadelphia Eagles are fine. Sure, most fans expected them to be a whole lot better than just fine, as they were widely ranked as one of the best teams in the NFC heading into the season and the clear favorites to win the NFC East versus three teams with legitimate question marks […]

After going to overtime in a game they should have lost in Week 1, losing a game they should have won in Week 2, and winning a game they should have lost in Week 3, trying to predict what would happen for the Los Angeles Rams in Week 4 was a borderline fool’s errand. Maybe […]

After going down with an injury that looked pretty darn bad both in the moment and slowed down via replay, fans of the Kansas City Chiefs have waited with bated breath to get an update on the condition of star wide receiver Rashee Rice, who has been Patrick Mahomes’ top target so far this season. […]

Coming out of Week 3, it looked like the Philadelphia Eagles were on the right track. Down two of their top four receivers, with a third going with a concussion mid-game, Saquon Barkley continued to dominate, Dallas Goedert was unlocked as a legitimate force from the tight end position, and Vic Fangio’s defense looked much-improved, […]

Despite being under consistent pressure for much of the Los Angeles Rams’ Week 4 battle against the Chicago Bears, Matthew Stafford still had a chance to secure a win on the final drive of the game, down just six with a little over a minute to go. Starting the drive at their own eight-yard line, […]

While stopping by the Superstar Crossover to talk WWE, hype of his title reign, and maybe get a few more eyes on Bad Blood this weekend in Atlanta, Cody Rhodes was met with a blast from the past – literally – when his former TNT Championship rival Darby Allin asked him a fairly straightforward question […]

On a weekend where Baker Mayfield should have been universally celebrated by fans for turning in a fantastic effort against the Philadelphia Eagles, where he got rid of the ball quickly and led his team to a 33-16 victory, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers starting quarterback earned headlines for a very different reason for his comments […]

After taking some brutal hits in what would eventually go down as his team’s first loss of the season, with think taking such an ugly turn that Sean McDermott inserted Mitch Trubisky onto the field when the game was out of reach, some fans of the Buffalo Bills wondered if Josh Allen had suffered an […]

Who are the Cleveland Browns in 2024? Are they the team that lost to the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants in Weeks 1 and 3, averaging less than 200 yards passing and 100 yards rushing while surrendering big plays on defense? Or are they the team that largely handled the Jacksonville Jaguars with ease […]

When Vince McMahon signed up for an expansive, extensive documentary process to compare and contrast himself with his WWE persona, Mr. McMahon, it’s borderline impossible for him to imagine how the project would turn out. With much of the filming taking place in 2021, with some more happening in 2022 before everything really hit the […]

Normally, when a wrestler in WWE or any other promotion hits an incredible move or pulls off an impressive spot in a match, they will hear positive praise from their booker for turning in a good effort… unless you’re Ricochet. That’s right, while appearing on Talk is Jericho, Ricochet recalled how one time, after hitting […]

Between the loss of Tua Tagovailoa, who was placed on IR with a concussion, and their loss to the Seattle Seahawks, the Miami Dolphins have not had a very successful September despite sitting pretty-ish with a 2-1 record in the AFC East. Fortunately, Mike McDaniel isn’t looking to simply rest on his laurels and hope […]

After going off to a 30-7 lead heading into the half, leaving Crimson Tide fans feeling very good and Nick Saban bored by what looked like an easy victory, things got far more interesting for Alabama and Georgia after halftime, with the Bulldogs scoring eight points in the third quarter, 19 more in the fourth […]

After spending the last week on the shelf with an ankle injury, San Francisco 49ers fans have been afforded some pretty incredible news regarding Deebo Samuel. The same can be said of Trent Williams’ Week 4 status against the New England Patriots. Despite being questionable, both players are “likely” to play vs. the Patriots, according […]

After watching Caleb Williams and company go to battle without a full deck over the past few weeks, the Chicago Bears have made a very encouraging announcement heading into Week 4 of the 2024 NFL season: Keenan Allen is back. That’s right, after missing the last two weeks with a heel injury, Allen has been […]

Gosh, what happened to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3? They went from looking like a legit challenger for the NFC South, even as the New Orleans Saints led the league in points scored in Week 2, to the type of team that handed the Denver Broncos their first – and maybe only – […]

After his head coach, Antonio Pierce, suggested that he might need to make some “business decisions” heading into Week 4 after an ugly effort against the then-winless Carolina Panthers, it looks like the Las Vegas Raiders had their hands tipped when it comes to Davante Adams as, according to ESPN Insider Adam Schefter, the star […]

There was a time when the most important part of Nick Saban’s week was Alabama football. He’d spend all week watching tape, talking about the game in media hits, and coaching up the youth on how to best attack whatever team the Crimson Tide had on the schedule. But now that the NCAA legend has […]
