Ravens-Steelers winner takes AFC North: 'This is going to be a slugfest'

When Pittsburgh quarterback Aaron Rodgers' fourth-and-goal pass sailed incomplete to seal Cleveland's unlikely 13-6 victory, the Ravens erupted in a celebration that Harbaugh described as "uncorked and raucous." They jumped around. They hugged each other -- a lot. All of this sets up a historic -- and some might say inevitable -- showdown in one of the NFL's most heated rivalries: The Ravens and Steelers will battle for the AFC North crown Sunday night in the final regular-season game of the 2025 season.

Key Commanders coach may already have one step out the door

[Kliff] Kingsbury's head coaching candidacy is interesting despite Washington's struggles. He's a potential fit in Tennessee, with a young quarterback in Cam Ward who fits his style of offense. Las Vegas, should that job open as many around the league expect, will take a hard look at improving its offense. Kingsbury has been selective but is also open to becoming a head coach again. So while he's not the shiniest name because of Washington's record, I could see him being in the mix again.

Will the Seahawks wise up and run against the 49ers?

The 49ers don't come to mind when assessing the NFL's top rushing defenses. They've given ground at 4.3 yards per carry in an area where the term stout isn't used until it gets below 4.0. But the last two games, wins over Indianapolis and Chicago, came against teams that figured to challenge the 49ers at the line of scrimmage and impose their will.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Arch Manning made big plays with his arm and his legs Wednesday in the Citrus Bowl, throwing two touchdown passes and putting it away with a 60-yard scoring run in a 41-27 victory that ended a rough month for No. 14 Michigan. Manning was an easy choice as the Citrus Bowl MVP, and that was before he burst up the middle on his 60-yarder that gave the Longhorns (10-3) a 38-27 lead, the first time all game either team led by more than one score.

Commanders' draft pick has fans questioning everything after only one season

His vision between the tackles stands out first, as he consistently identifies creases early, presses his leverage effectively, and understands how to manipulate second-level defenders to create extra yardage. That vision is paired with an electric first step following the mesh point, allowing him to capitalize before the lanes close. And while the former Alabama State-to-Arizona product isn't a back who needs perfect blocking surfaces to be productive, his ability to get north quickly and generate momentum through contact has translated to the professional level.

He also dealt with an ankle injury early in the season and has three sacks and a forced fumble. "It probably adds a little bit of cloudiness to his return window," McDermott said.
