Coach John Harbaugh was never going to shrug off the call that flipped Ravens–Steelers.

Officials told him Likely’s “third […]

The Miami Dolphins’ season has long been over in the eyes of the public, but all they can do now is win out and hope for the best. Pulling off a miraculous finish or even just ending the campaign on a positive note can probably only be accomplished with a healthy De’Von Achane. The star […]

The Cleveland Browns’ 2025 season remains a disaster. While Myles Garrett’s chase for the single-season sack record is exciting, being 3-10 after Week 14 feels like a failure.

thyOne impressive game does not a career make.

McCarthy. Prior to facing the Washington Commanders at U.S. Bank Stadium in Week […]

The Houston Texans continue to stack wins and confidence simultaneously. Their 20-10 road victory over the Kansas City Chiefs featured another reminder of how dangerous this offense can be when C.J.
