The Las Vegas Raiders walked into Foxborough on Sunday and did something that felt downright impossible just a few months ago—they looked like a competent football team. Behind Geno Smith’s stellar 362-yard performance and some clutch second-half adjustments, the Raiders stunned the Patriots 20-13 in what turned out to be a tale of two halves….
Well, well, well. Did anyone have “Daniel Jones looking like Tom Brady” on their Week 1 bingo card? Because that’s exactly what happened Sunday when the Indianapolis Colts absolutely steamrolled the Miami Dolphins 33-8 in what can only be described as a football beatdown of epic proportions.

The Chicago Bears entered this season with sky-high expectations and championship dreams. New head coach Ben Johnson was supposed to be the missing piece that finally unlocked this talented roster’s potential. But just hours before their primetime showdown with the Minnesota Vikings, reality came crashing down like a poorly thrown screen pass. Chicago Bears Secondary…
Of course, Quinshon Judkins is back. Just when you thought the Browns’ backfield situation couldn’t get any more, well, Browns-like, here we are. After an offseason that was less about OTAs and more about legal proceedings, the rookie running back has officially signed his contract and is suddenly on the fast track to make his…
A mere two weeks ago, Matt Prater was working out in an empty high school football field wearing shorts that screamed, “I am old.” The Instagram post received fewer than 75 likes. Today, he will be kicking in front of a packed stadium as a new addition to the Buffalo Bills as they meet Baltimore…
The Minnesota Vikings head to Chicago with rookie Quarterback J.J. McCarthy making his first NFL start, and frankly, there’s more riding on this game than just another Week 1 victory.
