The Dallas Cowboys are in the headlines for all the wrong reasons yet again. After an up-and-down start to one of the most pressure-filled seasons for the franchise in recent history, Jerry Jones’ squad hosted the Detroit Lions at AT&T Stadium on Sunday and the Cowboys got absolutely dominated in front of their home crowd. From start to finish, Detroit was in complete control, ultimately handing the Cowboys an embarrassing 47-9 loss on the same home turf they were undefeated on during the 2023 regular season. The Lions posted a staggering 492 yards of total offense with a perfectly balanced…

The North Carolina football team has had a tough season — and on the field — it wasn’t much better on Saturday as the Tar Heels fell 41-34 to Georgia Tech, giving them a (3-4) record on the season. But when the team got to the locker room after the tough conference loss, the team got hit with far more devastating news. UNC football announced on Saturday that former wide receiver and student coach Tylee Craft passed away. Craft was recently hospitalized as his condition with Stage 4 lung cancer got worse and passed away Saturday morning. He was just…

The New York Jets can never seem to escape the headlines — and like so many years in the past — the stories are usually aren’t positive. All offseason, the organization was brimming with hope once again just like it had done the previous summer, but as the calendar flips to mid October, the Jets seem to have more drama than ever. This is a team that several smart members of the sports media picked as legitimate Super Bowl contenders in 2024 with a healthy Aaron Rodgers leading the team and a roster loaded with talent, with major new acquisitions…

The Dallas Cowboys entered the 2024 season with more pressure than any team in the NFL. After three-straight 12-win seasons under Mike McCarthy, Dallas came into this season with a clear expectation to win at least one playoff game, if not more, and make a run toward the Super Bowl. At least that’s how owner Jerry Jones was thinking — in an offseason where he publicly stated he was “all-in” for this season, yet added almost no new talent to the Cowboys roster, despite the team losing starters on both sides of the ball and key role players from the…

The Kansas City Chiefs are one of two undefeated teams after four weeks of the 2024 NFL season — and once again — it looks like the defending Super Bowl champs are the team to beat this year. Somehow, some way, the Chiefs continue to find ways to win games despite plenty of distractions away from the field that would throw many teams off track. Heading into a season with so much on the line, the organization would ideally like to avoid as many distractions as possible heading into 2024, but the opposite has been true. The Kansas City Chiefs…

The New York Jets failed to score a touchdown on Sunday and suffered a surprising 10-9 loss at home to the Denver Broncos. The weather was cold, wet and miserable and QB Aaron Rodgers wasn’t at his sharpest, completing 57% (24-of-42) of his passes for 225 yards. He was also sacked five times. Self-inflicted mistakes were also a significant factor in the Jets’ offensive struggles. They committed five false start penalties Sunday, two each by running back Breece Hall and left guard John Simpson. Tyron Smith jumped early for the fifth penalty. Following the game, New York Jets head coach…

The Detroit Lions were almost unstoppable on offense on Monday night, cruising to a 42-29 win over the Seattle Seahawks at home. While the Lions’ 389 total yards of offense didn’t compete with the 516 yards of offense the Seahawks posted, Detroit was efficient the entire night, scoring at least one touchdown in every quarter of the game, while reaching the end zone twice in multiple quarters. Lions’ QB Jared Goff put together a historical performance that will go into the NFL record books. Goff put together one of the most efficient games in NFL history during Detroit’s 42-29 victory…

The Michigan Wolverines were cruising early, but Minnesota put together an impressive second-half comeback at the Big House on Saturday. Ultimately, the Wolverines escaped with a 27-24 win on a day where they finished with 86 total passing yards and converted just 6-of-15 of their third down attempts. Sitting at (4-1) with a tough Big Ten conference schedule ahead, Michigan is going to have to find a solution on offense or the elite defenses will take away the run and the Wolverines will have no answer. The Michigan defense was dominant in the first half, forcing a turnover or a…

Georgia Bulldogs fans are built different. That pretty much goes for all SEC fans — in a conference where most of the stadiums are bigger than NFL venues — fans go above and beyond to support their favorite teams. On Saturday, one of the biggest SEC games of the year will go down in Tuscaloosa, as No. 4 Alabama hosts No. 2 Georgia in Tuscaloosa. The Georgia Bulldogs and  Alabama Crimson Tide have combined to win the nation’s top conference in nine of the past 10 seasons. They split a pair of national championship games. They have faced off in…

Nick Saban will go down as one of — if not the greatest — college football coaches of all time. The Alabama Crimson Tide produced a dynasty under Saban and it’s widely considered one of the top jobs in college football. After 17 seasons leading the Tide program, leaving some legendary shoes to fill in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Saban went 292-71-1 overall as a head football coach throughout his career including an absurd 201-29 at Alabama with six national championships Two weeks ago, the Alabama athletic department added Saban’s name to their home stadium, making him a part of Crimson Tide…
