The past week perfectly displayed the Yin and Yang of betting on NFL odds, particularly for high-rollers, who aren’t necessarily sharp, but certainly have a lot of disposable income.Last Monday night, a six-figure bet landed on the Falcons to beat the Saints. On Sunday night, an even larger six-figure play dropped on the Ravens to beat the Falcons.And in between, the Cowboys were dealt the season’s biggest upset by the Bucs, vaporizing a six-figure wager while making a big winner of a prediction markets trader.More on all that activity, along with a parlay that rode Oklahoma’s upset to a five-figure…

One can’t tell the story of the NFL without Mike Ditka.The Ditka family announced on Friday afternoon that the Hall of Fame head coach and tight end passed away at 86.

The first four weeks of the 2026 NFL season were far from predictable. A sliver of teams with playoff (and even championship) hopes are winless. The Minnesota Vikings are one of the final three undefeated teams left. Kenneth Walker III looks like the favorite to win Offensive Player of the Year, and the Los Angeles Rams haven’t been as invincible as we thought they might be. We technically aren’t at the exact quarter mark of the 2026 NFL season, but we’re just about there. So, as we prepare for Week 5, we’re taking a look back on some of our preseason predictions…
No NFL owners have hit the panic button yet, despite some incredibly disappointing starts. All 32 men who began the season as head coaches are still employed. But that could change soon.With bye weeks coming and patience running out, the heat is getting turned up on several coaches whose teams have been caught in an unrecoverable downward spiral. And several others probably already know that they’ll spend the second half of the season playing out the string, knowing their time is short, too.So which head coaches’ seats are the hottest after the first month of the regular season? Here is my…

The Chicago Bears are 3-1 and have won three games this season with three different starting quarterbacks. With that, Colin Cowherd believes Sunday’s performance is the latest piece of evidence of who matters most in Chicago: Head coach Ben Johnson.”It is a quarterback-first league, but the guy who builds the culture is the coach,” Cowherd said on Monday’s “The Herd.” “I think we’ve discovered in the last two weeks, as gifted as Caleb Williams is, the centerpiece of the Bears is Ben Johnson.”With quarterback Caleb Williams sidelined for a second straight game with a right hamstring injury, the Bears won…
