Photo by Jamie Squire/Getty Images

Here’s why people tend to root against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Another year, another Super Bowl where we have to watch the Kansas City Chiefs. Yay. The NFL is once again ending the season not with a bang, but a boring-ass whimper. The Chiefs have taken over as the league’s most-hated team, and now they’re a sadder iteration of the Patriots. At least it was fun to hate Tom Brady and Bill Belichick in New England, the Star Wars memes, Evil Empire...

This is why the Giants let Saquon Barkley walk, and how the Eagles signed him in free agency.

2023 was the year of the running back franchise tag in the National Football League.

That spring three running backs — Tony Pollard, Josh Jacobs, and Saquon Barkley — all received that designation from their teams. Pollard received the non-exclusive franchise tag from the Dallas Cowboys after making his first career Pro Bowl. Jacobs, who led the NFL...

Tom Brady’s turbulent first season as a broadcaster wraps up at Super Bowl 59

Tom Brady played in 10 Super Bowls, winning seven of those over his years with the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

So it should not be a surprise that his first year as an analyst for FOX Sports ends with him at the big game, as he will be on the call alongside Kevin Burkhardt for Super Bowl LIX.

Brady’s first season in the booth has been a rather tumultuous...

Travis Kelce retirement rumors: Chiefs TE talks future plans ahead of Super Bowl 59

Kirby Lee-Imagn Images

What’s next for Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce?

By his lofty standards, the 2024 season has been a down year for Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

This year Kelce caught 97 passes for 823 yards, his lowest yardage output of his career aside from his one-game stint in 2013, and just three touchdowns. While he hauled in 7 passes for 117 yards and a touchdown in Kansas City’s win over the Houston Texans in the AFC Divisional Round, Kelce was rather...

The NBA’s draft pick market has crashed

With fewer available future draft picks to trade but transactions that still need to get done, the value of the speculative capital cratered at the 2025 NBA trade deadline.

Let’s take a time machine back one full week and ask ourselves a question. How many first-round draft picks is Luka Doncic worth?

Analytics predicts Super Bowl winner between Chiefs and Eagles

The big game is Sunday and we already know who wins because FTN’s DVOA says so. Kansas City or Philadelphia?

We are so close to crowning a champion in the NFL which means we are also so close to not having the highest level of professional football to watch until September. The joy and the agony of those two things cannot be denied.

The great thing about the NFL is that it is a year-round sport with the NFL combine at the...
