Following the team’s stunning collapse, details of the turmoil within the Philadelphia Eagles are starting to surface. Offensive coordinator Brian Johnson’s future may be even more questionable than that of head coach Nick Sirianni.

Thirteen men and the whole 1995–96 squad, which finished 72–10 and won the NBA title, were inducted into the first class of Ring of Honor. Three of that team’s most important players—Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, and Dennis Rodman—were not present at the celebration. Rodman was supposed to make an appearance, but bad…

In the aftermath of their humiliating 32-9 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the Wild Card round, the Philadelphia Eagles will have a lot to consider this summer. They finished the regular season with an 11-6 record, having started the season with the best record in the league at 10-1. However, they faltered to a 1-5 record. That abrupt collapse culminated in a horrifying defeat to the Bucs, laying the groundwork for a very significant offseason of work. Even though Philadelphia has what is perhaps the best roster in the NFL on paper, there are obvious gaps that must…
Prior to the NFL Playoffs’ Divisional Round matchup between the San Francisco 49ers and the Green Bay Packers on Saturday night, teams led by Kyle Shanahan held the dubious distinction of having lost 30 games in which they fell behind by five points or more in the fourth quarter. As the 49ers trailed 21-14 going into the fourth quarter against Green Bay, the Packers appeared poised to pull off a historic upset against the NFC’s top seed, if history were to repeat itself With little over six minutes remaining in the game, behind 21-17, Purdy knew he had to give…

There is a betting line of 279.5 throwing yards; the key question is if “indoor cat” Goff can go above this amount. It’s common knowledge that Goff prefers to play indoors, especially considering how poorly he performs in lower temperatures. Fans of the Lions’ postseason journey may find it alluring to wager on the “over” because his recent performances show a tendency of exceeding this threshold. Goff has performed far better inside,…
