Everybody’s looking forward to watching Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts square off—well, almost everybody.
With the stage set for Super Bowl LVII, the football-watching world is left to look ahead at all the intriguing aspects of this year’s matchups. Chief among them is the quarterback pairing, with this season’s top two MVP candidates—the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes and the Eagles’ Jalen Hurts—set to square off in what should be a must-watch showdown.
At least, that’s how most people view things.

A 6-year-old ordered himself a GrubHub smorgasbord, and it was all on his pops’ dime.
It happened in Chesterfield, Mich., and according to MLive, 6-year-old Mason was at home with his dad, Keith Stonehouse, while his mom was catching a movie with friends.
Stonehouse thought he’d keep Mason occupied by giving him his phone to play a game.
However, young Mason must have found himself hankering for some grub, so he grabbed his old man’s phone and ordered up some GrubHub. Honestly, that’s pretty smart for a kid that young.

Ben Verlander and Alex Curry breakdown their top-5 losers from this MLB offseason. The Los Angeles Dodgers and Oakland A’s headline Ben’s list of losers.

Here are five MLB teams in good position to make major improvements in the standings in 2023.

Shannon Sharpe and Chad Johnson discuss Chad’s tenure with the New England Patriots. When Shannon asked about his experience, Chad said: “It’s a whole different ballgame. In New England there is no big dog, everyone is expendable and you feel it the moment you walk into the room.” Chad also goes onto to talk about how Bill Belichick checked Chad when he joined the team.

The Houston Texans hired former San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans on Tuesday as their next head coach. In doing so, Ryans becomes the sixth head coach in franchise history.
The last three head coaches in Houston have been black men, meaning that half the coaches in the franchise history are black. And, if you count Romeo Crennel’s stint as interim coach in 2020 following the firing of Bill O’Brien, then Ryans becomes the fourth consecutive black man to be head coach of the Texans.

Super Bowl LVII is set, with the top teams from both the NFC and AFC holding serve. The Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs will face off in a little over a week in Arizona.

Denver does not have a long-term solution at quarterback, has traded away future draft capital and may have expensive decisions ahead. That sounds a lot like New Orleans.
After taking a gap year to stoke rampant speculation as to where he might land upon his return to the NFL, Sean Payton is now the coach of the Broncos. Congratulations to him.
There will be plenty of takes—all accurate to some degree—about the meaning of this hire.
For one, it’s certainly refreshing to see a new owner with deep pockets spend lavishly on a coach.

The former Huskies quarterback has found a new home for the 2023 season.
Sam Huard, the former quarterback at Washington, announced Monday that he will play at FCS program Cal Poly next season.
“Excited for the next chapter, #rollstangs,” Huard said in a tweet.
Huard joins a Cal Poly program that finished 2-9 and 1-7 in the Big Sky Conference in the 2022 season.
Huard, the No. 5 quarterback in the 2021 edition of the SI99, entered the transfer portal on Jan. 10. The move stems from the success of Huskies quarterback Michael Penix Jr.

Realignment and scheduling model changes will give these two conferences a new look in the upcoming season.
Finally, the final two of the Power 5 leagues have released their schedules. The SEC and Big Ten got their business done last fall, and the Pac-12 checked in a couple of weeks ago. The ACC and Big 12 took their time releasing on Jan. 30 and 31, respectively.
The ACC’s format is no longer by divisions as the league has undertaken a 3-5-5 scheduling model, where each team has three primary opponents and will play the rest of the league home and away over the course of four years.
