There were heroes all over the...Read more

LANDOVER, Md. — We are football followers, Eagles followers, so … no lies between us.

The Tush Push had its moments. Yes, it did. You remember the first touchdown of Super Bowl LIX, the ease with which Jalen Hurts slipped through the Kansas City Chiefs’ defensive line and into the end zone? The Tush Push was the first sign of the rout to ...Read more

LANDOVER, Md. — For the first time in 20 seasons, the NFC East has a back-to-back champion.

ARLINGTON, Texas — The NFL regular season is turning down the stretch and the playoff picture is coming into focus, and that means not just the teams but the league’s scheduling crew is hard at work.

The Chargers, who play at Dallas on Sunday, can secure a postseason berth with a victory and some help from a team or two. Coupled with a win ...Read more

DENVER — Omarion Miller finished Julian Lewis’ passes the way Meg Ryan finished Billy Crystal’s sentences in “When Harry Met Sally.”

Alas, there won’t be a happy ending. Or a sequel.

Miller — the CU Buffs’ leading receiver in 2025 — announced Wednesday that he was entering the transfer portal. And apparently Tawfiq Byard will...Read more

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — On Sunday, the Falcons will contend with a game-breaking tight end, one who in his fourth season is already the highest-paid player at his position in NFL history.

It is an interesting juxtaposition for a team that paid a fortune in draft capital for tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. with the expectation that he could become the ...Read more

PITTSBURGH — In the past two games, especially Monday night, Aaron Rodgers showed why he is one of the greatest cold-weather quarterbacks in NFL history, certainly in the past 35 years.

SEATTLE — Puka Nacua promised he would learn from his mistakes, but his pledge was unconvincing.

His speech was rushed. What he said barely made any sense.

And there was this: On Thursday night, two days after criticizing referees on a livestream, Nacua posted a sarcastic message about the officials following the Rams' 38-37 overtime defeat ...Read more

BALTIMORE — The Ravens can’t fix their home record Sunday night.

Sadly, it’s already too late for that.

They enter their regular-season home finale with a 3-5 record at M&T Bank Stadium, locked into one of the worst home seasons in franchise history. Even a win over the visiting Patriots wouldn’t bring them back to .500.

But the Week ...Read more

LOS ANGELES — Sean McVay serves on the NFL's competition committee.

So it's a given that the next time the group convenes, the Rams coach will have a specific situation and rule to discuss.

Particularly, the one that occurred on a two-point conversion attempt during the Rams' 38-37 defeat by the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night at Lumen ...Read more

SEATTLE — Was there some luck?

Absolutely there was. A backward-pass-turned-two-point conversion that everyone in the stadium thought was dead before the replay. A missed 48-yard field-goal attempt by the Rams late in the fourth quarter. Even Seattle winning that pre-overtime coin toss warrants a fist bump to the football gods.

But the ...Read more

SEATTLE — In a matter of minutes, the home of the Seattle Seahawks went from a painfully quiet Lumen “Library” to a rollicking madhouse that sent seismologists scrambling for their ground-motion sensors.

Call it the Sheesh-Quake Game.

In a historic comeback, the Seahawks dug their way out of a 16-point, fourth-quarter ditch to beat the ...Read more

LOS ANGELES — Puka Nacua's comments about NFL officiating came with a cost — and not just the distraction the controversy caused the Rams before their overtime defeat by the Seattle Seahawks.

The NFL fined the Rams receiver $25,000 for public remarks he made about NFL officiating, the league confirmed Friday.

Nacua caught 12 passes for a ...Read more

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The playoff possibilities ended too soon for the Chiefs, who entered the year in pursuit of a fourth straight Super Bowl appearance.

But with three games remaining and no postseason to pursue, tight end Travis Kelce said he won’t allow himself to lack incentive.

“It’s just integrity, man,” said Kelce, who met with ...Read more

SEATTLE — Seahawks linebacker Derick Hall has been suspended for one game without play by the NFL for what the league called an “act of unnecessary roughness and unsportsmanlike conduct” during Thursday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams. The Seahawks rallied to win the game, 38-37 in overtime.

A news release from the league stated: �...Read more

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — It was a strange scene at Miami Dolphins practice Thursday. Starting rookie quarterback Quinn Ewers was throwing passes as veteran backups Tua Tagovailoa and Zach Wilson stood in the background and looked on.

SEATTLE — Three impressions after the Seahawks beat the Rams, 38-37 in overtime, to move into first place in the NFC West:

As improbable as it gets

We’ve seen some unexpected, strange games over the years at Lumen Field and the various names it had in the past.

This game goes directly on the list. Maybe even toward the top.

Down 16 ...Read more

SEATTLE — Short week, strange and bad trip.

The Los Angeles Rams were on the verge of enduring a quick turnaround, a distracting Puka Nacua controversy, and a flight delay but they could not hold onto the No. 1 seed in the NFC.
