The Ravens have their bulletin board material ready for their biggest game of the year
One of the biggest Christmas Day showdowns since Shaq vs. Kobe 2004, and Rocky vs. Drago is taking place on Dec. 25, 2023. The No. 1 seed in the AFC — the Baltimore Ravens — is going up against the top NFC seed — the San Francisco 49ers. Personally, I prefer when the NFL does not insert itself into ...
Pittsburgh might have to ride the Mitch Trubisky wave to a playoff berth
Just when Pittsburgh Steeler fans thought it was safe to step out and feel confident about their offense, we had a Mitchell Trubisky sighting Sunday.

Mike Tomlin has never won Coach of the Year and that needs to change
Seeing a team like this version of the Pittsburgh Steelers in today’s NFL is amazing.

With a 7-4 record and a point differential o...
The Steelers finally fire Matt Canada, officially have no excuses left

The Steelers have a mini-mutiny on their hands
Najee Harris has every right to be frustrated. The Pittsburgh Steelers offense has been putting Band-Aids over its leaks all season just trying to get to the next day.

George Pickens is becoming this generation's human highlight reel
Dominique Wilkins will forever be known as the human highlight film, but a Gen-Z version of that nickname needs to be invented for George Pickens.

Success for the Cleveland Browns has been limited over the past few decades. Since 1990, the Browns have advanced to the postseason three times.

Le’Veon Bell speaks out on state of NFL running back position

Tough luck Pittsburgh, no Beyoncé for you
A significant blow was delivered to the Pittsburgh economy on Wednesday. At summer’s end, Acrisure Stadium will have hosted only one of the biggest concert tours of the season.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett's car was stolen during a radio appearance

Mike Tomlin is a certified Hall of Famer deserving of a statue in Pittsburgh
When the Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Cleveland Browns 28-14 at home on Sunday, it capped a season in which they won their last four games despite starting 2-6.

IDIOT OF THE YEAR No. 6: Cleveland Browns and fans
It feels like we’ve spent all year, or at least a significant portion of it, talking about how terrible Cleveland Browns fans have been. Pre their team’s signing of quarterback Deshaun Watson, we were all able to laugh at their fans as loveable, delusional losers who thought they were going to get t...
History is not on the Philadelphia Eagles' side despite an 8-0 start
Thursday Night Football saw the Philadelphia Eagles win their eighth game in a row, a 29-17 victory over the woeful Houston Texans.

Mike Tomlin, Steelers finally make the switch to Kenny Pickett, much to the delight of Pittsburgh fans
It only took 3 ½ games for Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin to decide he’d seen enough of Mitch Trubisky.
