The Jacksonville Jaguars just had breakthrough season that changed expectations. They didn’t just rebound in 2025. The Jags announced themselves.

New coach Liam Coen transformed a 4-13 roster into a 13-win AFC South champion. With expectations reset, […]

The Buffalo Bills have officially promoted former offensive coordinator Joe Brady as the team’s next head coach. It seemed as if the Bills had narrowed down the list to two coaches: Brady and another former Bills OC, Brian Daboll. The team decided to hire from within, and now, the team will be looking for a […]

The Los Angeles Rams were one possession away from the Super Bowl. The line between triumph and devastation could not have been thinner. One defensive stop or clean special-teams rep. One more snap executed the right way. Instead, a season that felt destined for something bigger ended with the cruelest reminder of how unforgiving the […]

The Los Angeles Chargers are hoping to flip the script. This is a football team that has always been competitive, but they live in purgatory, not quite able to make it to the top. After another playoff blunder, the Chargers decided to fire offensive coordinator Greg Roman. Jim Harbaugh has replaced Roman with Mike McDaniel, […]

Despite missing the playoffs for the second straight season, the Dallas Cowboys boasted one of the league’s best offenses in 2025.

Williams rushed for 1,201 yards […]

Kyle Pitts is due to cash in after posting 88 receptions for 928 yards and five touchdowns this past season, but when factoring in his potential free agency decision, he may also consider where he is most likely to succeed.

Harbaugh and the Giants made one low-key NFL Free Agency move on a past Steelers weapon, Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team helped reveal Thursday. […]

The Houston Texans’ promising rise met a painful ceiling on Sunday. They entered the 2025 season determined to prove their rapid rebuild was no fluke. For much of the year, they did exactly that. They played disciplined, physical football that reflected head coach DeMeco Ryans’ vision and validated CJ Stroud’s emergence as a franchise quarterback. […]

The San Francisco 49ers saw their title window slammed shut, albeit temporarily. This was not a team exposed as fraudulent, nor one suddenly short on talent. It was a roster stretched to its breaking point by injuries, depth erosion, and a growing list of structural issues. All those finally caught up to San Francisco on […]

After their Divisional Round loss, the Buffalo Bills remain contenders at a crossroads. This team is no stranger to January heartbreak. The way their 2025 season ended, though, may have been the most sobering yet. This was not a team outclassed by superior talent or overwhelmed by the moment. Instead, Buffalo fell because of mistakes, […]

The Carolina Panthers now know how it feels when ‘close’ stops being good enough. The Panthers did not limp into relevance in 2025. They announced themselves.

The Carolina Panthers had reasons to be happy about their playoff performance, but, of course, someone has to take the blame for the loss.

It was a hard-to-take 34-31 setback, where the Panthers held the lead until the final […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars just found out what happens when momentum meets reality. It was painful. For most of the 2025 season, Jacksonville looked like a team on a mission. Young, fast, aggressive, and playing with confidence, they steamrolled their way from afterthought to AFC contender. That’s what made their Wild Card loss to the Buffalo […]

A defending champion got exposed when margins disappeared. For all the winning the Philadelphia Eagles have done over the last two seasons, their 2025 Wild Card loss to the San Francisco 49ers felt jarringly familiar. It was neither a blowout nor a collapse. It was a slow, grinding reminder that even champions can be forced […]

At the midway point of the 2025 NFL season, the Indianapolis Colts looked like they had found their new franchise quarterback in Daniel Jones.

The Atlanta Falcons received clarity on Kyle Pitts’ mindset following his historic Week 15 performance, as the tight end made it clear his focus remains on football and the teammates around him. With free agency approaching and the offense coming off one of its most productive outings of the season, Pitts’ comments added important context […]

Everything about Green Bay’s passing attack feels different with Christian Watson back in uniform. His vertical speed and leaping ability give Jordan Love the true field-stretcher this offense badly needed, and offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich has called his return “a shot in the arm” for a unit that suddenly looks far more explosive. Since getting […]

While the Detroit Lions earned a win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 14, they saw safety Brian Branch suffer a season-ending Achilles injury. Now, the Lions have found his potential replacement.

The first season under the New York Jets’ new regime of head coach Aaron Glenn and general manager Darren Mougey has been a rough one to this point. The Jets are one of the NFL’s worst teams, currently sitting in the basement of the AFC East at 2-9. Ahead of New York’s Week 13 matchup […]

Following a shocking 23-19 loss to the Houston Texans on Thursday Night Football last week, the Buffalo Bills are looking to regain ground in the AFC East. While many thought this year was the Bills’ time to march towards the Super Bowl, the resurgent New England Patriots have claimed the East’s lead at 10-2. Ahead […]

The Los Angeles Rams ensured a breakout star would not reach the open market, finalizing a new deal to keep standout linebacker Nate Landman in town.

But it was teammate Jalen Ramsey’s reaction that turned the […]

The Kansas City Chiefs did not get in on the NFL trade deadline action. The team still looks like Super Bowl contenders, but they have fewer wins this season than fans have become accustomed to.

The New England Patriots are looking to win its seventh game in a row on Sunday, against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Ahead of that game, New England is shoring up their wide receiver room. New England is signing wide receiver Brenden Rice, per NFL insider Jordan Schultz. Rice is the son of NFL legend Jerry […]

The Los Angeles Rams witnessed Kam Curl lead the defense in tackles during their London trip.
