The Kansas City Chiefs pushed their record to 10-1 after speaking out a 30-27 victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday afternoon, putting their loss to the Buffalo Bills behind them as they continue their journey eyeing their third straight Super Bowl win. While it took some “Mahomes magic” to make it happen, the Kansas City Chiefs drove down the field with less than two minutes remaining to pull out a 30-27 victory over the Carolina Panthers. Here are some things we learned about the Chiefs thus far this season after that performance. The Kansas City Chiefs Pass Rush Isn’t…

There was a glimmer of hope for the New York Giants as they released their young star quarterback Daniel Jones last week and replaced him with Tommy DeVito who fans fell in love with when he made his appearance in 2023 replacing an injured Tyrod Talyor. That hope quickly went away as the whole team’s performance against Tampa Bay would disappoint Giants fans everywhere, and it quickly became clear Daniel Jones was not the Problem with the New York Giants. Tommy DeVito’s performance, and the overall state of affairs for the Giants, can be best described by two first-half plays.…

The Minnesota Vikings squared off against division rival Chicago Bears Sunday afternoon at Solider Field. The Vikings controlled the game until things got complicated and the Chicago Bears almost came back to win at the very end, tying it and taking it into overtime. Sam Darnold played all right, finally mixing it up and favoring Jordan Addison and T.J. Hockenson throwing them both touchdown passes. Addison was hot on Sunday catching eight passes for a career-high 162 yards, and T.J. Hockenson had 114 receiving yards for the Vikings, who are still one game behind Detroit in the tough NFC North.…

The Minnesota Vikings faced off against the Tennessee Titans over the weekend and at the start of the game when Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold fumbled the ball just three plays in Vikings fans everywhere started to question if this was going to be another weekend of Sam Darnold playing mediocre and the defense having to carry the team to a victory. Instead, Darnold made up for that fumble for the rest of the game, throwing for 246 yards and two touchdowns and running for a score, leading the Vikings to a 23-13 victory over the Titans. Before Sunday’s matchup, the…

The New York Jets are under fire again after they lost 31-6 against the Arizona Cardinals. A game where the Jets missed an insane amount of tackles. This horrific performance led to a team meeting where newly appointed head coach Jeff Ulbrich gave the defense a little tackling presentation, and according to Ulbrich, one of his defensive captains Ahmad “Sauce” Gardner completely dismissed the need for a special tackling presentation for the team. Gardner, who is the Jets 2022 first-round draft pick and NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, has been a standout performer in his young career. However, with…

The Minnesota Vikings faced off against the Jacksonville Jaguars this past Sunday and boy was it an ugly, ugly win for the Vikings… The Vikings ended up edging out a 12-7 win without scoring a touchdown. The big talk of the game amongst Vikings fans was Sam Darnold’s horrific play, going 24-of-38 for 241 yards and three interceptions. Sam just tried to force the ball to Justin Jefferson and his receivers, leading to ugly pickoffs. The Vikings relied on the strength of their defense again this season to come out with a win in this game holding the Jaguars to…

The Minnesota Vikings start a three-game road stretch starting in Jacksonville Florida to face off against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Now the Jaguars are in the middle of an ugly, ugly season even though they were promised a turnaround things could continue to get ugly as Trevor Lawrence will likely be out so that means Mac Jones will be taking over at quarterback. Mac Jones is not set up for success as Christian Kirk suffered a season-ending injury in week 8 and their other two star receivers and top three running backs are all beat up as well. The offensive line…

The Kansas City Chiefs look to keep their undefeated season alive Sunday at home against their division rival Denver Broncos. The Denver Broncos started the season a bit slow and sloppy but have adjusted and are arguably having their best season in some time. The Broncos rank second in yards allowed per play, second in sacks at 31, and fourth in pressure percentage at 12.7%. The thing that makes the Broncos so special is that they don’t have a true star pass rusher, but they do have a diverse set of players who can execute defensive coordinator Vance Joseph’s game…

The Minnesota Vikings came out on top defeating the Indianapolis Colts 21-13 on “Sunday Night Football” last night even after starting the game off super slow and sloppy. Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold completed 28 of his 34 passes for 290 yards and threw three touchdowns but had a season-high two interceptions on some horrific miscues that held the offense back from being their usual selves on Sunday night. The Minnesota offense moved the ball for 194 total yards in the first half, they also had two turnovers, one being returned for a Colts touchdown. They also had three sacks, and…
