Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts is off to another slow start this season.

The Panthers are starting Bryce Young at quarterback for the first time since Week 2 of the this still young season. While the opportunity comes as a result of an injury to his replacement, Andy Dalton, this is still an important opportunity for the former No. 1 overall pick to

To have an honest conversation about Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott heading into a Week 8 matchup with the San Francisco 49ers, one has to admit that the $240M man has been a bit underwhelming. The Cowboys are 3-3, and Prescott’s lack of star play has been one of the

The 49ers currently sit with a disappointing 3-4 record, but they’re also only a game behind the Seahawks for the NFC West lead. Considering the conflicting outlooks, there have been some questions about how the front office would proceed at the trade deadline. It sounds like John Lynch and co.
