Why Matt Eberflus cost the Bears late against the Packers with more coaching mistakes
The most consistent thing about the Chicago Bears under the leadership of head coach Matt Eberflus has been their unbreakable resolve to lose winnable games. The Bears’ issues started way before Jayden Daniels’ Hail Mary broke their spirit and their season in Week 8, but somehow it keeps getting worse.
The Green Bay Packers delivered the Bears another...

Only the Bengals could screw this up like they have.
The Bengals season is functionally over. As much as Zac Taylor might want to try and talk up Cincinnati’s chances of making the postseason, they’re cooked. At 4-7, with two remaining games against the Steelers and one against the Broncos, any hope of a fairytale win-out scenario is so preposterous they’re not even worth entertaining.
As disappointing as this has been for fans, it’s been even...

Inside the NBA isn’t going anywhere!
The best studio show in sports isn’t going away, it’s just changing channels. Rumors over the weekend gave way to an announcement on Monday that Inside the NBA would keep running for the 2025-26 season and beyond, with everything about the show remaining the same but to commence airing on ESPN.
That means we won’t be losing Ernie Johnson Jr., Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith, and Shaquille...

We’ve safely exited another summer gaming lull and it looks like we’re entering a bull run of great games heading into 2025. As a result, the 512GB of internal storage supplied by the Xbox Series S is feeling increasingly paltry. You’ll even start to feel the squeeze on the 1TB Series X when you load up on new titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops VI (which demands about 85GB for...

It was morbid curiosity that made me tune in to Netflix’s live boxing match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson on Saturday night. The stream ran into technical issues, and the fight itself was slow and ponderous. But there was something else that kept me watching: all of the jokes flying on Bluesky.
That kind of real-time social experience is a large part of what made X feel so vital back when it was still called Twitter. Whether it...
