Wilson has the Steelers’ offense humming and Pittsburgh in control of the AFC North.

Azeez Al-Shaair made a decision that he wanted to take out Trevor Lawrence. Now the league needs to take action against him. Plus: Young QBs show out again.

We’ve seen this kind of stuff before with Azeez Al-Shaair. The Houston Texans linebacker who was ejected from Sunday’s game for his hit of a sliding Trevor Lawrence has quite a history for doing some sketchy stuff on the football field.
And after the Texans disavowed Al-Shaair’s tactics following their game against the Jaguars, it must be said, we’ve seen that before as well.
And this history might earn Al-Shaair a suspension coming up.
“That is not representative of us,” Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said on the FOX NFL broadcast halftime interview.

Playoff teams littered the landscape on Week 13, and the results are impacting the standings.
With the Los Angeles Chargers and Atlanta Falcons plus the Minnesota Vikings and Arizona Cardinals squaring off in the early window on Sunday and the Philadelphia Eagles and Baltimore Ravens in the late window, you knew at least three NFL teams that entered the day in playoff position were going to lose. The results are shuffling the standings in the NFC and AFC.
Despite the Falcons’ loss, they will stay in first place in the NFC South.

What an insane way to finish the 2024 regular season!

Is Braedyn Locke’s time with the Wisconsin Badgers over?
The Badgers finished the regular season a pathetic 5-7 after a Black Friday loss to Minnesota. It’s the team’s worst season in more than two decades.
Fans are beyond livid and frustrated, and for good reason. The Luke Fickell era was supposed to usher in new energy and success. Instead, it’s been a disaster through two seasons.
There’s absolutely no way to sugarcoat it and anyone who does is an idiot.
One of the biggest problems with the team is just horrible QB play.

The Tennessee Titans are playing very bad football.
Down 28-7 to the Washington Commanders at halftime, the Titans showed no signs of life until their final drive of the half. Tennessee racked up 11 penalties (for 85 yards) in the half while allowing Rookie of the Year favorite Jayden Daniels to toss two touchdowns and completely control the time of possession.
And the only people feeling worse than Titans fans right now are the employees on Tennessee’s social media team. Just before kickoff, they posted video of defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons hyping up the squad for battle.

Saquon Barkley and Lamar Jackson could win individual hardware and lead their teams on deep playoff runs. They’re meeting in Week 13. Follow all the action here.
