"Caleb Williams always makes one throw and you're like 'What is that?"

Saw a certain former Blue Devil at last night's TSU game. Take a guess who it is.

With anything, the way we all want it is to go out on our own terms. But for Charvarius Ward, it may not be that way. My thoughts on the decision he is facing.

The Texans' defense was on fire in Pittsburgh, but CJ Stroud was not. And for them to go where they want to go, ue absolutely has to play better.

The Texans' defense definitely can help carry Houston to the Super Bowl. The offense is going to play a role in wherever the Texans hope to go in the playoffs, starting with Pittsburgh tonight.

KRS-One once said "The Bridge is over " . He was foreshadowing this beatdown the Packers are giving the Bears right now, not talking to MC Shan and Marley Marl.

The Jaguars and Jaguars fans have to be feeling a level of disrespect leading into their game versus the Buffalo Bills. Sunday can go a long way to gaining the respect they feel they deserve and earned this season. My article on Jacksonville.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are in the playoffs again and not many are giving them a chance. But if these two factors go in their favor, they can move on to the Divisional Round of the playoffs.
