In Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday night, the San Francisco 49ers fell short against the Kansas City Chiefs in overtime. After the game, a lot of talk centred on Kyle Shanahan’s choice to carry the ball rather than throw it to begin overtime. Time runs out when the team with the ball scores the first touchdown; this is a rule decision. For overtime, nevertheless, there are various regulations. The 49ers gained the ball on first down with the option to receive, but they were forced to give it back to Patrick Mahomes, which might have ended the game and the…
Pittsburgh The Pittsburgh Steelers are prepared to settle if their Plan A doesn’t pan out. That’s what the most recent reports indicate, anyway. Mason Rudolph hopes to find somewhere and start his career as a starting quarterback outside of Pittsburgh by pursuing a “fresh start” in free agency. If that kind of opportunity arises, it’s difficult to hold him accountable since the Steelers still view Kenny Pickett as their “guy.” According to sources, the organisation has a backup plan in place if Rudolph does go, but it won’t affect Pickett or the team’s standing. In essence, it gives Pickett the…
During this offseason’s free agency period, the Pittsburgh Steelers are anticipated to pursue an experienced quarterback who is acquainted with the offence of recently appointed offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. After Mason Rudolph was benched in favour of former first-round pick and quarterback Kenny Pickett at the end of the regular season and during the playoffs, the Steelers’ quarterback position is unclear. After the 2023 season, Pickett passed for 2,070 yards, six touchdowns, and four interceptions. The Pittsburgh Steelers are looking for quarterback competition. According to the Steelers website, head coach Mike Tomlin stated that he hoped to see a quarterback…
The Super Bowl is frequently a setting that shapes the legacy of those who compete. The winner is remembered and celebrated indefinitely. Legends are created. Tom Brady is the best player of all time since he won seven Super Bowls. Joe Montana came before him, having won four Super Bowl championships. Nick Foles’ amazing run in 2017 against Brady and the Patriots cemented his reputation as a legend. Because of Brady’s two Super Bowl victories over Eli Manning, he is regarded as the one player Brady could not defeat. However, the Super Bowl is also a place of notoriety. Why…
According to Jordan Schultz of Bleacher Report, Anthony Weaver, Assistant Head Coach/Defensive Line, has agreed to become the Miami Dolphins’ new defensive coordinator. Weaver joined Baltimore as defensive line coach in 2021 and was elevated to assistant head coach/defensive line in 2022. Weaver was the Texans’ defensive coordinator for one season (2020), until Head Coach Bill O’Brien was dismissed and his coaching staff disbanded. Weaver served five seasons on the Texans’ coaching staff and has also coached for the Browns, Bills, and Jets. Weaver, 43, interviewed for head coaching vacancies with the Commanders and Falcons during the most recent NFL…
On Wednesday, The Athletic released a very well-sourced piece on the New York Jets, revealing everything that went wrong behind the scenes during their dismal 2023 season. There was a lot of new material in there, despite the fact that the organisation was leaking like a sinking ship as the year progressed following Aaron Rodgers’ injury. Some of the new information focused on Zach Wilson’s relationship with the superstar quarterback. Their mentor-mentee situation received a lot of media attention throughout the summer. Rodgers expressed his desire to help the troubled young quarterback, and Wilson said all the right things about…
When former defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier and the Bills parted ways in February, the team did not replace him for the 2023 season. Instead, head coach Sean McDermott became the team’s defensive play-caller. The Bills announced Bobby Babich’s promotion from linebackers coach to defensive coordinator on Tuesday. However, as Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN points out, Buffalo has yet to decide whether McDermott or Babich would call the defensive plays in 2024. Last week, General Manager Brandon Beane stated that the organisation is open to whatever McDermott wants to accomplish. “If [McDermott] feels he needs to put someone else in charge…
Pittsburgh — The Pittsburgh Steelers have hired Arthur Smith as their new offensive coordinator. However, the immediate reaction from the fanbase was not very good. After a couple of difficult years with the Atlanta Falcons, it’s unclear what coach the Steelers will receive in Smith. Will he be as successful an offensive coordinator as he was with the Tennessee Titans? Or will he remain the same coach he was in Atlanta? Speaking with people with intimate knowledge of the Falcons organisation, it appears Smith will bring far more to Pittsburgh than fans realise. Not everything was as horrible as it…
The San Francisco 49ers will put everything on the line on Sunday, when they face the Detroit Lions in the NFC Championship Game at Levi’s Stadium, with a trip to the Super Bowl in Las Vegas, Nevada, at stake. One of the 49ers’ important players on Sunday will undoubtedly be standout tight end George Kittle, who had another good season in San Francisco, with over 1,000 yards receiving and six touchdowns. Kittle, as usual, wears something eye-catching before games, and Sunday’s playoff matchup with the Lions was no exception. The 30-year-old tight end strolled into Levi’s Stadium wearing a shirt…
Buffalo, New York (AP) Josh Allen’s vote of support, along with a desire for continuity, resulted in Joe Brady taking over as the Buffalo Bills’ offensive coordinator on a full-time basis. The decision was revealed on Sunday, less than a week after Buffalo’s season ended with a 27-24 loss to Kansas City in the divisional playoffs. Brady finished the season as the Bills’ temporary coordinator after Ken Dorsey was sacked in mid-November. The Bills’ offence improved in the final seven regular-season and two playoff games under Brady, with a renewed emphasis on the rushing game. Brady also expanded the passing…
