Houston’s defense will try and put Mahomes in a blender.
I’m actually quite intrigued by this matchup between the Chiefs and Texans, largely because I think the Texans’ defense is playing some of the best football in the NFL right now. What they did to the Chargers on Wild Card weekend might violate the Geneva Convention. They pressured Justin Herbert on more than half of his dropbacks, forced four interceptions and allowed a -0.58 EPA per play, the fourth-lowest in the playoffs since 2016 (per Next Gen Stats).

Let’s dive into the wildest scenario in the NFL.
It started as a joke. In March of 2024, in our company Slack room, I laughed about how the “most Cowboys thing possible” would be for Jerry Jones to move on from Mike McCarthy after the season, hire Deion Sanders, and find a way to draft Shedeur Sanders as their starting QB.
At the time, it was so unimaginable that it became a recurring joke — but I couldn’t shake the idea of it being so preposterous that it could become a reality.

Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers has decided that it’s time to declare for the NFL Draft and start preparing for his future at the professional level. But, is it actually time to move on from college football?
The Longhorns quarterback has been a topic of discussion over the past few weeks, as colleges around the country were trying to have conversations behind the scenes about whether Quinn Ewers would entertain one more season of college football.
It’s become commonplace in recent years for NFL quarterbacks to shower their offensive linemen with extravagant gifts for Christmas. But Peyton Manning isn’t on board with this tradition — not for everybody, anyway.
Of course, it’s the O-linemen’s job to protect the QB. Their efforts ensure the signal caller doesn’t find himself flattened onto the playing surface after every snap. Lavish Christmas gifts are essentially the quarterback’s way of telling his blockers, Thanks for keeping me alive this season.
Ole Miss traveled to Alabama on Tuesday night as a Top 25 team. While one ranked team going on the road and beating a ranked opponent is a regularity in college hoops, the Rebels’ win over the Crimson Tide wasn’t just different, it was historic.
Ole Miss, a 10-point underdog ahead of tip-off, entered Tuesday’s contest having last won in Tuscaloosa during the 2014-15 season. The Rebels were also 0-34 all-time in previous road games against Top 5 teams.
