The Las Vegas Raiders Week 17 game with the San Francisco 49ers will be a quarterback matchup between Brock Purdy and Jarrett Stidham. Bet you didn’t have that on your Raiders-49ers bingo card before the season started (or even just a few weeks ago). That’s the matchup we get, though, so let’s go ahead and […]

The weekend is almost here, which means it is time for some San Francisco 49ers Week 17 bold predictions. The Niners will travel to face the Las Vegas Raiders at the Allegiant Stadium on Sunday. San Francisco is currently on an eight-game winning streak and has clinched the NFC West at 11-4. While it should […]

The Tennessee Titans will have a shot to win the AFC South in Week 18 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, regardless of what happens in Week 17. Despite that being true, it doesn’t make their recent quarterback decision with Malik Willis and Josh Dobbs any less surprising, and it looks like we could be in for […]

There are myriad reasons why Zach Wilson is no longer the unquestioned No. 1 quarterback for the New York Jets. At the top of the list is his erratic play in the passing game and inability to complete a high percentage of his throws. Jets offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur believes he knows where the problem starts […]

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson won’t rest any of his starters in Week 17’s matchup with the Houston Texans, and his explanation will have some football fans reminiscing on the Herm Edwards days. “You play to win every game,” Pederson stressed. “There’s never a meaningless game. Never, ever, ever, ever. The only way I […]

The Green Bay Packers are rolling at the moment and head into Week 17 against the Vikings looking to extend their three-game winning streak. While they were handed a concerning blow on Christmas as rookie wideout Christian Watson exited early with a hip injury, the Cheeseheads received some good news on that front Thursday. Via […]

The Denver Broncos have been easily the biggest disappointment in the NFL this season, and a big reason for that has been due to the struggles of Russell Wilson. Wilson was expected to elevate the Broncos to a Super Bowl contender this season. Instead, he’s been one of the worst quarterbacks in the league, and […]

The Carolina Panthers Week 17 matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is a 6-9 team vs. a 7-8 team. Yet somehow, it is a crucial NFC South matchup with major playoff ramifications. With that as the backdrop for Panthers-Buccaneers, let’s make some bold Week 17 Panthers predictions. The Panthers’ path to the 2022 NFL playoffs […]

Quarterback Kirk Cousins’ tenure with the Minnesota Vikings has been, overall, a mixed bag. The Vikings have only made the postseason once over Cousins’ past four seasons as Minnesota’s QB1. Still, with elite offensive weapons such as Justin Jefferson and Dalvin Cook still in town to go along with strong defensive options such as Danielle […]

Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs enter their Week 17 clash against Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos having already punched their tickets to the postseason. However, the star quarterback knows better than to rest on his laurels despite the Broncos’ franchise turbulence this season. Speaking with reporters before their game on Sunday, Patrick […]

After a very slow start to the season, the Green Bay Packers are making quite the late season playoff push. Regardless of whether or not the Packers make the playoffs, though, it’s clear that Aaron Rodgers is going to need some more weapons alongside him on offense if he is going to lead Green Bay […]

The Miami Dolphins have been dealt yet another injury blow to Tua Tagovailoa, who suffered a concussion last weekend against the Green Bay Packers. That means Teddy Bridgewater will get his second start of the campaign and according to star wideout Tyreek Hill, that shouldn’t change much in the offense. Everyone has full belief in […]

The Tennessee Titans will welcome the Dallas Cowboys to Nissan Stadium for a Week 17 clash on Thursday Night Football, but they’ll likely be without star running back Derrick Henry for the contest. Henry is officially listed as doubtful for the game due to a hip injury, and is not expected to play, according to […]

The Miami Dolphins aren’t in a great spot right now.

The Las Vegas Raiders have made a big change at quarterback, announcing on Wednesday that Jarrett Stidham will replace Derek Carr as the starter moving forward.

The Philadelphia Eagles fell short in Week 16 as Jalen Hurts sat out their game against the Dallas Cowboys. They enter this weekend with a big target on their backs but perhaps even a bigger question mark. Their three most potent offensive weapons are questionable for this game, and that might put them on the […]

The Baltimore Ravens have already clinched a playoff spot this season after missing out on them entirely last season, but that doesn’t mean they are guaranteed to make a deep run. The Ravens are struggling mightily right now, and need to get star quarterback Lamar Jackson back on the field if they intend on winning […]

Although 2022 is almost over, the NFL season is far from set in stone. With the Miami Dolphins set to face the New England Patriots on the road at Gillette Stadium on Sunday, it is time for some Dolphins Week 17 bold predictions as they try to stop their slide. Miami is on a rough […]

The Minnesota Vikings continue to be underrated. They enter this game underdogs. That’s despite coming from back-to-back wins over the Indianapolis Colts and New York Giants. The Vikings have also won four of their last five games. Now at 12-3, the Vikings have officially clinched the top spot in the NFC North and are just […]

The Las Vegas Raiders, after making the playoffs last season, have endured a rough 2022-23 campaign. Quarterback Derek Carr’s decline in performance has been one of the biggest reasons behind the Raiders’ struggles. In fact, head coach Josh McDaniel and the rest of the Raiders brass decided to bench the 31-year old quarterback in favor […]

Everyone knows how capable JJ Watt and TJ Watt are on defense. Both are missiles on the field but here’s a more analytical breakdown of their similarities, via Pittsburgh Steelers veteran defensive tackle Cam Heyward on his Not Just Football with Cam Heyward (h/t Steelers Depot). “The motor is identical. They both give relentless amount […]

The Miami Dolphins are facing major heat over what many consider an utter lack of caution for their quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.

FOXBOROUGH – The New England Patriots learned Wednesday morning that their Week 17 opponent for Sunday’s pivotal game will be without their starting quarterback due to a concussion. They might face a pair of similar blows themselves. Rookie cornerback Marcus Jones missed practice on Wednesday due to a concussion. Jones was injured during Saturday’s loss […]

Days after the Pittsburgh Steelers honored legend Franco Harris, the late great running back was laid to rest. And many current Steelers players showed up to pay respects. Pittsburgh running back Najee Harris missed practice to attend Franco Harris’s funeral, as confirmed by beat writer Chris Halicke. Others who attended were Terrell Edmunds, Myles Jack, […]

The San Francisco 49ers are rolling with Brock Purdy at quarterback right now. The rookie signal-caller looks poised to run the offense through the postseason with Jimmy Garoppolo and Trey Lance still on the sidelines. The good news is Jimmy G has taken a step forward in his recovery as Garoppolo has finally gotten the […]

The San Francisco 49ers have been having a very interesting season. On one hand, they have been decimated at key positions. It all began when second-year quarterback Trey Lance suffered a season-ending injury back in Week 1. Jimmy Garoppolo was then thrust into action despite not even having this year’s playbook. Garoppolo then suffered a […]

FOXBOROUGH – The New England Patriots-Miami Dolphins matchup on Sunday was supposed to be the fourth time that a pair of former Alabama teammates and quarterbacks faced off in their young careers. However, that won’t be the case. Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa will miss Sunday’s game after being diagnosed with a concussion for a second […]

Arizona Cardinals defensive end JJ Watt admitted there will always be a part of him that’s going to be frustrated by the fact that he never won a Super Bowl in his 12 years in the NFL, but he emphasized he’s not focusing on the negatives of his career. Instead, Watt pointed out that he’s […]

Division hopes still hang in the balance in Week 17 for the Dallas Cowboys, albeit by a thread. Dallas needs to win out and they need the Philadelphia Eagles to lose out to win the division title, but none of that matters if they don’t take care of business in Nashville. Dallas’ defense is set […]

Kentucky football does not have much of a claim to fame outside of Tim Couch. Couch may not have made it in the NFL but is still living his best life. On Wednesday, a photo of him shirtless made its way onto Twitter with almost a million views. Kentucky Sports Radio’s Matt Jones tweeted the […]

The San Francisco 49ers have arguably become even more unstoppable after Jimmy Garoppolo’s injury, as they still can’t stop winning games. The 49ers have won in all three starts of Brock Purdy and four games overall since he took over the quarterback role in Week 13 against the Miami Dolphins. However, Purdy is hardly the […]

JJ Watt’s decision to retire at the end of the 2022 season shocked the whole NFL world. After all, he is only 33 years old and still playing some of the best football of his career with the Arizona Cardinals. However, there is a good reason why the star defensive end decided to call it […]

The Green Bay Packers are in the middle of their preparation for an all-important showdown against the Minnesota Vikings this coming Sunday, but they could also be preparing for a potential absence from running back Aaron Jones.

On Wednesday, the Las Vegas Raiders announced that they would be benching longtime starting quarterback Derek Carr. In his place, former Auburn quarterback Jarrett Stidham will earn the starting nod.
