The San Francisco 49ers are still winning despite losing their top two quarterbacks to injuries this season. A big reason for that is the team’s defense which makes life harder for opposing offenses by punching them in the mouth, so to speak. The 49ers’ pass rush, in particular, has been unforgiving, with defensive end Nick […]

Sure, the Pittsburgh Steelers pulled off a come-from-behind 13-10 win last Saturday at home over the Las Vegas Raiders, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to be worried about for them. For one, their offense still looked anemic in that game,  and if you ask former NFL star wide receiver Steve Smith, the ones in […]

Aaron Gordon submitted a late but strong entry for Dunk of the Year 2022 Sunday night when he put Landry Shamet on a poster. The Denver Nuggets forward had quite a performance versus the Suns, with the cherry on top of it being Gordon immortalizing Shamet on a poster and countless social media clips with […]

Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic woke up on Christmas Day thinking it was the perfect time to be in a gunslinger getup heading into Sunday’s game against LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers.

Golden State Warriors budding star Jordan Poole hit the showers way before his teammates on Christmas Day, as he was ejected from the game against the Memphis Grizzlies with still over nine minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. Referee Marc Davis didn’t seem to like Poole’s gesture over what the Warriors shooting guard was a […]

Jayston Tatum and the Boston Celtics are feeling it again. Following a stretch that saw them lose three games in a row, including two against the Orlando Magic, the Celtics are now building a winning streak that has Tatum believing that Boston is back to their terrifying form. “It did feel good to get back […]

It got so bad for Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos on Christmas Day that he got roasted by Patrick Star live. In the first quarter of the Broncos’ road game against Baker Mayfield and the Los Angeles Rams, Wilson was intercepted not just once but twice, the second one by Rams linebacker Bobby Wagner. […]

We’re sure that Denver Broncos quarteback Russell Wilson still has plenty of reasons to feel good about his life on Christmas Day, but it certainly doesn’t include the performance he showed up with during their 51-14 road loss against Baker Mayfield and the Los Angeles Rams. Wilson was atrocious anew in another start for the […]

Dallas Mavericks big man Christian Wood is now eligible for a contract extension, but whether he would ultimately stay a Luka Doncic teammate for years to come or not remains to be seen. Nevertheless, Wood gave Mavs fans an optimistic outlook for his chances to stay with the team beyond the 2022-23 NBA season, per […]

A few weeks ago, Baker Mayfield had no exact idea where he would land after parting ways with the Carolina Panthers. On Christmas Day, he found himself leading the Los Angeles Rams to a historic victory against a team that had a quarterback with a whole lot safer financial outlook in the NFL. Mayfield steered […]

It just keeps on getting worse for Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos. They couldn’t even get a break on Christmas Day, as they got absolutely blown out by Baker Mayfield and the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, 51-14. Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett offered no excuse for the embarrassing defeat to the Rams, saying […]

The Philadelphia 76ers are still hot. After going undefeated in a seven-game homestand, the Sixers wandered into the Big Apple and extended their win streak to eight games by taking down the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Christmas Day, 119-112. Most of the credit for that Philly win goes to the superstar […]

The Dallas Cowboys gifted their fans a nice present on Christmas eve, coming back from a 10-point deficit against the Philadelphia Eagles and pulling off a 40-34 victory at home. That come-from-behind victory was a notable one, as it saw the 2022 NFL regular season set a new league-wide record for the most wins snatched […]

The Dallas Cowboys looked as though they were going to fall victim again to the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday when quarterback Dak Prescott threw an interception in his team’s first drive which was also taken to the house by Philly defensive end Josh Sweat. However, that ultimately did not matter to Prescott and the Cowboys, […]

Dallas Cowboys veteran wideout T.Y. Hilton used to be one of the best wide receivers in the NFL, back when he was still with the Indianapolis Colts. While he’s now beyond his prime, he is still very much capable of turning back the hands of time every now and then. Just take for his example […]

Dak Prescott didn’t have the smoothest of stat lines overall in Saturday night’s Week 16 game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles, but boy did he make Philly pay for relentlessly throwing him zone defense looks (h/t Sheil Kapadia of The Ringer). Per @NextGenStats, Dak Prescott went 24-for-24 for 300 yards when Eagles […]

The San Francisco 49ers continue to have success with Brock Purdy as their starting quarterback. Purdy has been getting plenty of help from the Niners’ loaded receiving room, which also includes tight end George Kittle, who’s been fantastic, especially of late. Kittle, in fact, just pulled off something the 49ers had not seen in two […]

The Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys had quite a slugfest on Christmas eve, with the rivaling NFC East division squads trading blows in Week 16. Philly wide receiver DeVonta Smith landed some of the heaviest punches in the game for the Eagles, as he finished the game with 91 receiving yards and two touchdowns […]

The Cincinnati Bengals will not play until Sunday but they must have their eyes glued to Thursday night’s game between the New York Jets and the Jacksonville Jaguars. See, a loss by the Jets would mean an automatic playoff berth for the Bengals in the AFC. And that’s exactly what happened, with the Bengals getting […]

The New York Jets let themselves and a lot of people down Thursday night in their 19-3 home loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Even bettors who laid money on the Jets are left howling in pain in casinos across the nation, with one unlucky wagerer losing $11,000 on a Zach Wilson bet. All that bettor […]

It got so bad for the New York Jets in their Thursday night game against the Jacksonville Jaguars at home that they had to insert backup Chris Streveler into the game to replace the ineffective Zach Wilson. The Jets’ offense struggled all night long versus the Jaguars but showed some signs of life when Streveler […]

Washington Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin will have to wait for at least one more game before trying to tie Gordie Howe for the No. 2 spot on the all-time NHL goals-scored list after failing to find the back of the net in Thursday night’s 3-2 overtime victory over the Ottawa Senators on the road. However, […]

It has come down to this for the New York Jets. With their offense barely coughing anything Thursday night against the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Jets have made the decision to insert Chris Streveler into the game in the second half, which meant that Zach Wilson will be on the bench. Through three quarters, the Jets […]

When you talk about New York and spending money on players, it’s no longer just about the New York Yankees, because the New York Mets are breaking the bank with owner Steve Cohen investing in his team like it’s a space program. In the Mets’ latest financial flex, they signed star infielder Carlos Correa to […]

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer is going to play baseball again in the MLB sooner than what was initially expected. That’s after an arbitrator reduced his 324-game suspension, stemming from sexual assault allegations, down to only 194 games. MLB Twitter doesn’t seem to be too happy about looming return of Bauer to MLB mounds, […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady has had plenty of Pro Bowl selections throughout his long and successful career in the NFL. And while he’s not going to be part of the 2022 Pro Bowl, it’ll feel just the same for the future Hall of Famer, who rarely played in it. For one, there’s not […]

The Sacramento Kings are turning out to be one of the fun teams to follow this season. They have plenty of young talents and most of all, they’re winning.

If it were up to the fans — and fans only — Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa would be a shoo-in Pro Bowler for this season. Unfortunately for Tagovailoa, even though he has officially gotten the most number of fan votes among NFL players, he still missed the Pro Bowl vote. Apparently, he was not […]

Ayo Dosunmu played the hero for the Chicago Bulls Wednesday night, as he delivered the game-winning basket in their 110-108 victory over the Atlanta Hawks. It was a nice rebound for Dosunmu, especially after playing just very limited minutes in Tuesday night’s 113-103 win over the Miami Heat in South Beach. After the Hawks game, […]

Debating about the Pro Bowl snubs is an unofficial annual tradition in the NFL world.

Prior to the 2022 NFL season, the Seattle Seahawks took a long time to make a decision on which quarterback they’d be rolling with from Week 1. They ultimately chose veteran Geno Smith over Drew Lock, and it is safe to say that Seattle made the correct choice. After all, Smith has just been selected […]

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson hasn’t been impressing much in the 2022 NFL regular season, but at least during the holiday season, he was able to wow his offensive line by buying them all motorized scooters. Zach Wilson bought his offensive line motorized scooters for the holidays 🛴 (via _naateh/IG) pic.twitter.com/58xhZhQKX2 — Sports Illustrated […]
