The Lions went 4-for-5 on fourth down, two of which resulted in touchdowns. Another allowed them to run out the clock before kicking a last-play field goal. Jake Bates kicked a 35-yard field goal as time ran out to give the Lions a 34-31 win over the Packers. It was

Tim Patrick hadn’t scored a touchdown since 2021. He has two tonight. His first went for 3 yards. His second was 1 yard, giving the Lions a 31-28 lead with 8:39 remaining in the fourth quarter. The Lions receiver has five catches for 32 yards. Detroit has 328 yards after

While discussing the recent firing of Bears coach Matt Eberflus, I uttered the name “George McCaskey” in the presence of my phone. Which meant, of course, that Twitter then suggested I follow its George McCaskey account. I checked the page. It’s followed (as of this posting) by NFL P.R. executive

The Jets have five games left. Aaron Rodgers has five games left with the Jets. Rodgers was asked by reporters on Wednesday whether he believes the final 2024 games will determine whether the Jets want to keep him for 2025. “I think it is ridiculous, with all due respect,” Rodgers

On Tuesday morning’s PFT Live, I threw out the idea of the Bears ditching the normal approach to hiring head coaches and calling the 49ers to see whether they’d be willing to trade Kyle Shanahan. It’s either a good idea, or it’s a slow week. Regardless, Shanahan was asked about

Caleb Williams transferred from Oklahoma to USC, following Lincoln Riley after his freshman college season. So, he knows all about change. Still, it wasn’t easy to see offensive coordinator and play caller Shane Waldron fired Nov. 12, and then head coach Matt Eberflus let go three weeks later. “The human
