It’s not looking good out there for the Tennessee Titans ahead of their Week 17 showdown against the Dallas Cowboys at home this coming Thursday.

Deion Sanders might be known today more as the head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes and as the former head coach of the Jackson State Tigers, but there was a time when he was the talk of the sports world because of his dual-sport abilities. As one of the rare people who have ever played […]

The Ohio State Buckeyes are less than a week away from squaring off with the No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs in a College Football Playoff semis clash in the Peach Bowl.

The Sacramento Kings will not have head coach Mike Brown spitting out instructions for the team in their first game back from a holiday break this Tuesday night against the Denver Nuggets at home.

The Penguins are third in the Metropolitan Division with 43 points, while the Islanders are sixth with 40 points. With all that being said, let’s now take a look at […]

Kenny Pickett still has a lot to learn in the NFL, but he’s been showing promise under center for the Pittsburgh Steelers, albeit inconsistently. Take for example last Saturday’s 13-10 come-from-behind home win over the Las Vegas Raiders in which Pickett played terribly for 90 percent of the game but turned it up at just […]

The Phoenix Suns are having trouble winning games, especially in the final month of 2022, and their problem is getting compounded by Devin Booker’s health. Booker has recently aggravated a groin injury that forced him out early from last Sunday’s game against the Denver Nuggets. That was the first appearance of Booker following a three-game […]

The Nathaniel Hackett era of the Denver Broncos was a short one. It did not even last a full season, with the Broncos deciding to pull the trigger following the team’s embarrassing 51-14 road loss on Christmas Day to Baker Mayfield and the Los Angeles Rams. Now, the search is on again for a new […]

Damian Lillard is the new king of buckets for the Portland Trail Blazers franchise after surpassing Clyde Drexler for the most points in Blazers history. It wasn’t just big news within the team and for its supporters, though. Lillard’s historic accomplishment, as other superstars outside of Portland sent out congratulatory greetings for the Blazers spitfire […]

The Portland Trail Blazers have a new all-time scoring champion after Damian Lillard displaced the legendary Clyde Drexler as the franchise’s all-time points leader. During a ceremony to celebrate his incredible accomplishment after Monday’s 124-113 home win over the Charlotte Hornets, Lillard even paid homage to 1989’s hit movie Major League by dropping a Jake Taylor […]

James Harden’s rumored interest in going back to the Houston Rockets is apparently nothing new at all. The Brooklyn Nets already had an inkling about it even before they sent the former NBA MVP to the Philadelphia 76ers via a trade back in February 2022, per Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports. While Harden was frustrated […]

There was something in the water of the Orlando NBA bubble in 2020 that had former Indiana Pacers forward TJ Warren morphing into a Hall of Fame quality player during that strange portion of the league’s history. That same form by TJ Warren showed up Monday night to help the Brooklyn Nets pull off a […]

The Clemson Tigers have missed the boat to the College Football Playoff in the 2022 college football season, but that doesn’t mean they lack talent. Clemson football has plenty of them, with some viewed with great to good potential to make it to and star in the NFL someday. Here are four Clemson prospects to […]

Much has been said about the Golden State Warriors teaching the Memphis Grizzlies a lesson on Christmas Day, but that victory gets even sweeter for Dub Nation when considering the story about how the Grizzlies apparently favored watching the Boston Celtics game against the Milwaukee Bucks in the locker room during pregame instead of consuming […]

The Los Angeles Chargers will be down one key player the rest of the way against the Indianapolis Colts Monday night. That’s after star safety Derwin James was thrown out of the game following a brutal hit on Colts wide receiver Ashton Dulin in the second quarter of the contest. The hit that got Chargers’ […]

It hasn’t been a smooth ride of late in the NFL for the Miami Dolphins. Not only are they on a four-game losing skid, but the Dolphins also are in trouble of missing the services of starter Tua Tagovailoa after the quarterback entered the concussion protocol following Week 16’s 26-20 home loss to the Green […]

There’s no denying the vital role of Anthony Davis for the Los Angeles Lakers. His presence creates so much positive impact for the Lakers on both ends of the floor, so with him out indefinitely with a right foot injury, Los Angeles is starting to learn how to adjust to a life devoid of Davis […]

The Land can still feel like home for Brooklyn Nets star point guard Kyrie Irving. While he’s years removed from the last time he donned a Cavs jersey, Irving showed that Cleveland will always be a special place for him when he tweeted a message Monday about being back in the city where his NBA […]

The Buffalo Bills are still scorching. They are coming off a 35-13 demolition job of a win over the Chicago Bears in Windy City last Saturday to extend their undefeated streak to six games. With that being said, let’s now take a look at some of the studs and duds for the Bills in their […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette has seen his production take a dip of late, and it’s apparently mainly because of a foot injury he’s been playing through. Following the Buccaneers’ 19-16 road win over the Arizona Cardinals on Christmas Day, Fournette revealed in a now-deleted tweet he posted to respond to his haters […]

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. Doncic arrived at the American Airlines Center with a fit that looks as though he was going to a Western film […]

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 […]
