Aaron Rodgers’ return to the New York Jets could be sooner than later.

Prior to their Week 3 matchup with the Detroit Lions, the Atlanta Falcons had two players return to practice on Friday after being absent earlier in the week. Running back Cordarrelle Patterson and linebacker Bud Dupree both missed practice on Thursday but were out there Friday, according to Josh Kendall, a sign that they should […]

There’s no replacing a top talent like Trevon Diggs, but that is exactly what the Dallas Cowboys are tasked with doing after the All-Pro cornerback tore his ACL in practice Thursday. As of Thursday evening, the Cowboys were still nailing down an exact timeline for Diggs’ recovery, but reports indicated that the injury would sideline […]

The Cincinnati Bengals have been among the most gritty and clutch teams in the NFL over the past couple years, in large part due to quarterback Joe Burrow. That being said, the team would be faced with a steep climb if it falls to 0-3 this Monday night. A victory could very well hinge on […]

The Frank Reich Era has gotten off to a rocky start.

To boot, they will be without their starting QB, as rookie No. 1 pick Bryce Young […]

The New York Jets face a critical Week 3 test when they host the New England Patriots on Sunday. The Jets (1-1) are coming off a bad loss to the Dallas Cowboys and, you may have heard, have not beaten the Patriots (0-2) since Dec. 27, 2015. So, will Robert Saleh’s team prove they can […]

The San Francisco 49ers beat the New York Giants in Week 3 on Thursday night to stay undefeated and become the first team in the NFL to move to 3-0.

The New York Jets have a contingency plan in place if left tackle Duane Brown is unable to play Sunday against the New England Patriots. Though coach Robert Saleh was coy about the plan, he was less so about Mekhi Becton’s role in it. Brown missed his third straight day of practice Friday because of […]

For a team that entered the 2023 season with subterranean expectations, the Arizona Cardinals have put forth two feisty performances so far. In Week 1, the fourth quarter began with the Cards holding a 16-10 lead. Of course, the Washington Commanders outscored them 10-0 in the final period and secured a 20-16 win. Week 2 […]

The Jaguars are coming off a 17-9 loss against the […]

The Dallas Cowboys have started the 2023 season exactly how they wanted to, and they’re 2-0.

However, disaster struck this week for the Cowboys during practice. Cornerback […]

The New York Giant Week 3 game against the San Francisco 49ers didn’t go quite as poorly as Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys, but in the end, the result was nearly the same. The Giants lost handily, 30-12, to a good NFC team. That is the story of the Giants’ season so far, and […]

The San Francisco 49ers continued their winning ways Thursday night, cruising to their 13th straight regular-season win and improving their undefeated record with quarterback Brock Purdy under center.

There was a brief moment of panic for San Francisco 49ers fans during their 30-12 victory over the New York Giants on Thursday night, as star wide receiver Deebo Samuel was down on the turf in pain with an apparent injury after a catch-and-run in the fourth quarter. Samuel walked into the blue medical tent […]

It’s been a tough first three weeks of the season for the New York Giants — but the first half of each contest has been an absolute nightmare for Daniel Jones’ team. In Week 1, the Giants trailed the Dallas Cowboys 26-0 at halftime. In Week 2, the Arizona Cardinals opened up a 20-0 lead […]

The San Francisco 49ers made light work of the New York Giants in Week 3, beating the NFC East side 30-12.

The San Francisco 49ers blew out the New York Giants 30-12 on Thursday Night Football in Week 3, and things got heated between the two teams right before the end of the first half. Although it looked like 49ers’ offensive lineman Trent Williams threw a punch at Giants’ pass rusher A’Shawn Robinson, he downplayed the […]

Coach Brian Daboll opted to prioritize the New York Giants’ rushing game and quarterback protection over anything else. It looked like they were compensating a little bit too much for the absence of Saquon Barkley. This meant that their weapons like Jalin Hyatt could not play a lot during their NFL Week 3 matchup against […]

The New York Giants’ offense led by Daniel Jones looked lost in NFL Week 3. Although the squad was missing Saquon Barkley, other parts of Brian Daboll’s offense just were not cutting it against the San Francisco 49ers. It even came to a point where Nick Bosa got one of the fastest sacks of the […]

After a blowout loss to the Dallas Cowboys, it might be easy for New York Jets fans to give up on quarterback Zach Wilson. After all, most of them already did last season. But the organization is clearly clinging to hope that Aaron Rodgers’ tutelage can spark a genuine turnaround. That hope appears to be […]

After a lackluster, injury-ridden 2023-23 season, Deebo Samuel is reminding NFL fans that he is still one of the most exciting and impactful offensive players in the game today. The New York Giants learned that the hard way in their Thursday Night Football showdown with the San Francisco 49ers. Though, it wasn’t all rosy for […]

When the Los Angeles Chargers take the field at U.S. Bank Stadium Sunday, they will face a team that is equally motivated and desperate to get in to the win column this season.

The New York Giants went on the road to take on the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday night football, and it ended up being another bad loss for the Giants.

The undefeated Niners were absolutely dominant on both sides of the ball, finishing with 16 more first downs than New York and out-gaining their visitors […]

Brock Purdy completely destroyed the New York Giants with the help of Kyle Shanahan’s schematics. Brian Daboll had a game plan to contain the San Francisco 49ers’ quarterback but Purdy made light work with all the blitzing that was happening in front of him during their NFL Week 3 matchup. Brock Purdy did not sit […]

Former Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck has kept a low profile since he retired from the NFL four years ago.

Ladies and gentlemen, we give you, Andrew Luck. #TNFonPrime pic.twitter.com/VfC2XwQYqZ — NFL on Prime Video (@NFLonPrime) September 22, 2023 […]

Pete Carroll is the oldest coach in the NFL, but no one has ever said the Seattle Seahawks coach has lost his sense of childish exuberance. Case in point: How the 72-year-old coach surprised his players—and indulged his sweet tooth—ahead of Sunday’s clash with the Carolina Panthers. Carroll surprised the Seahawks at Thursday’s practice by […]

The rushing game that Brian Daboll executed in their NFL Week 3 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers was horrendous.

The Niners took care of business in their season home debut Thursday night, as they crushed the New York Giants to the tune of a 30-12 score. Making the night sweeter for Purdy and the 49ers was the quarterback’s sensational […]

It’s an ingrained reaction from NFL fans. You see a punch thrown, you expect an ejection. Apparently, that rubric doesn’t apply to San Francisco 49ers left tackle Trent Williams. At the end of the first half of the New York Giants-49ers game on Thursday Night Football, Williams drew an unnecessary roughness penalty, per ESM’s Alex […]

The New York Giants are not having a nice NFL Week 3. The Daniel Jones-led squad entered the matchup against the San Francisco 49ers without Saquon Barkley and they have been getting dominated. The team got off to a slow first half start but that was not what Brian Daboll was concerned about. Brian Daboll […]

We’re less than a month until Shannon Sharpie’s tenure as a member of ESPN’s First Take and he’s already proven to be a ratings draw.

The New York Giants battled the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday while doing their best to move forward without a key first-round pick at a crucial defensive position. San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy had over 300 yards passing and two TDs while Giants QB Daniel Jones had just over 100 yards passing and an interception […]

To say the New York Giants have not been a first half team so far this season is an understatement. In fact, the San Francisco 49ers’ defense just helped Brian Daboll’s team do something NFL fans haven’t seen in over 20 years. It won’t bring a smile to Daboll’s face. The 49ers taking a 17-6 […]

George Kittle loves to have fun when playing on the gridiron. The San Francisco 49ers star knows that taking the game too seriously often leads to bad judgement during snaps.
