The newest episode of TBMR is out now!
In this episode, Andrew and Arnav talk about Rutgers Men’s basketball’s 70-69 win over Penn, and women’s basketball’s 54-45 win over Lafayette. They break down both games by talking about what each team did well, and the several areas where the Knights struggled. They then move on to discuss Rutgers Football’s new offensive line coach, Jim Turner, who was hired by the team last week.
The NFL’s Christmas slate looked promising on paper when the schedule was released in May, but the reality is much worse. Three games, one surefire playoff team, four eliminated teams, and one team on the brink of elimination.
Update: Lamar Jackson has now been ruled out.
Previously: The Baltimore Ravens need to win their final three games to clinch a playoff spot, starting tonight against the New England Patriots.
But they might have to finish the job against Drake Maye and company with Lamar Jackson watching from the sidelines.
Jackson left the game late in the first half after getting up slowly following a scramble. Tyler Huntley came into the game, and reports from the Baltimore sideline indicated that he was dealing with a back injury.

The Chicago Bears have clinched a spot in the NFL playoffs after the Detroit Lions lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday, following their own dramatic win over the Green Bay Packers Saturday night.

The New England Patriots started things off slowly in Sunday’s showdown against the Baltimore Ravens. However, they were able to score their first touchdown of the game in the second quarter thanks to a Drake Maye connection with Hunter Henry.
It was Henry’s sixth touchdown of the season, and it put the Patriots’ offense back on track. The drive included some incredible catches by wide receiver Mack Hollins and tight end Austin Hooper. The offensive unit appeared to get back in sync, and it featured all passing plays, as Maye started to get into a rhythm.
