1. Philadelphia Eagles (8-0): Running back Miles Sanders is quietly having a very good season with the Eagles. Sanders is 7th in the NFL in rushing yardage with 656 yards, he has six rushing touchdowns and is averaging 5.0 yards per carry. Next: -11 vs Washington Commanders – Mon, Nov. 14 – O/U: 44 (ATS: 5-3 – O/U: 5-3) 2. Buffalo Bills (6-2): The Bills have lost twice this season, and both losses are within the division. They have a one game lead in the division but are 0-2 within the divis...
1. Philadelphia Eagles (7-0): The Eagles lead the NFL in turnover margin with a +14. The closest team is the Cowboys with a +6 margin. The Eagles have a top 5 offense and a top 5 defense. They are clearly the team to beat in the NFC. Next: -14 at Houston Texans – Thu, Nov. 3 – O/U: 45 (ATS: 5-2 – O/U: 4-3) 2. Buffalo Bills (6-1): The Bills acquired Colts running back Nyheim Hines before the trade deadline. The Bills are sending back running back Zack Moss and a conditional 6th round pick in 20...
The Los Angeles Chargers are coming off their bye week and heading into Week 9 of the regular season with a 4-3 record and several key injuries to their top players. The Chargers could have used help at wide receiver or on the offensive line but were unable to strike a deal before the trade deadline on Tuesday at 1:00 PM. It can be difficult to find a trading partner and the price the Chargers would have paid in terms of draft capital and in salary cap space was likely to high for General...
When it comes to running fast, the UCLA Bruins football team is not lacking for speed. They have high school sprint champions in their backfield and even their quarterback, Dorian Thompson-Robinson, had a best time of 11.14 in the 100 meters in high school. They use the speed to put pressure on the opposing defenses. Then there is running back Zach Charbonnet. Charbonnet is not the fastest player in the Bruins backfield, but he is the best player in the backfield. On Saturday Night at the Rose...
1. Philadelphia Eagles (6-0): The rich get richer. The Eagle acquired pass rusher Robert Quinn from the Chicago Bears for a fourth-round draft pick in 2023. Quinn, 32, is a three-time Pro Bowler. With a top five offense and a top five defense, adding Quinn almost seems unfair. Next: -10.5 vs Pittsburgh Steelers – Sun, Oct. 30 – O/U: 43 (ATS: 4-2 – O/U: 3-3) 2. Buffalo Bills (5-1): The Bills are coming off a bye week with a deep squad and not much standing in their path to the AFC Champ...
Hall of Fame football Coach Bill Parcells once said, "You are what your record says you are." He might have made an exception with the 2022 Los Angeles Chargers, who are 4-3 after falling to the Seattle Seahawks, 37-23, in a game played last Sunday at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood. The 4-3 Chargers do not look like a team with a winning record at this point, especially after blowout losses at home to the Jacksonville Jaguars and Seahawks. The injury riddled Chargers fell behind 17-0 after one quarte...
1. Philadelphia Eagles (6-0): The Eagles have a +12-turnover ratio, which is a +8 better than the second-place team in that category. The Eagles lead the NFL in turnovers caused with 14 and lead the NFL in fewest turnovers with two. Next: Bye – Following week: N/A vs Pittsburgh Steelers – Sun, Oct. 30 – O/U N/A (ATS: 4-2 – O/U: 3-3) 2. Buffalo Bills (5-1): With the Bills 24-20 win over the Chiefs at Kansas City, the Bills have the early season edge on homefield advantage over the Chiefs and the...
It may have been ugly, and it may have been exasperating at times for Los Angeles Charger fans, but the Chargers somehow found a way to defeat the Denver Broncos on Monday Night in overtime, 19-16. The game was played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood. Kicker Dustin Hopkins, despite a hamstring strain, kicked a 39-yard field goal in overtime to win the game. Hopkins made all four of his field goal attempts. It was the third consecutive victory for the Chargers. The Chargers improved to 4-2 with the...
1. Philadelphia Eagles (5-0): The Eagles remained undefeated after hanging on for a 20-17 win over the Cardinals. The Eagles jumped to a 14-0 second quarter lead over the Cardinals and then did what other teams have done with the Cardinals; they took their foot off the gas. Next: -6 vs Dallas Cowboys – Sun, Oct. 16 – O/U 42 (ATS: 3-2 – O/U: 2-3) 2. Buffalo Bills (4-1): In their rout of the Steelers, the Bills showed the Steelers and the NFL early in the game what they are capable of. On the t...
Two weeks ago, the Chargers were reeling after a stunning 38-10 loss at home to the Jacksonville Jaguars. They were struggling to run the ball and quarterback Justin Herbert was taking too many hits. Two weeks later, the Chargers have found their running game, are doing a better job of protecting Herbert and have a two-game winning streak. On Sunday in Cleveland, the Chargers ran for a season-high 238 yards, with running back Austin Ekeler rushing for a career-high 173 yards on 16 carries as...
In the 2022 Pac-12 Preseason Media Poll, the Utah Utes were the pick to win the Pac-12 football title. The defending Pac-12 champion Utes received 26 of the 33 first-place votes. The UCLA Bruins were picked to finish fourth in the conference and received no first-place votes. With the first half of the regular season complete, it would appear that the media got it wrong. On Saturday afternoon at the Rose Bowl, before a crowd of 42,038 fans and a national television audience on FOX, the Bruins...
The Los Angeles Chargers came to Houston needing a win and needing to get their offensive stars going after a 1-2 start and two consecutive losses. As they say at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, "Mission Accomplished." The Chargers got big games from quarterback Justin Herbert, running back Austin Ekeler, and wide receiver Mike Williams and held on in the fourth quarter for a much-needed 34-24 victory over the Huston Texans on Sunday. Herbert, playing with a cracked rib cartilage, completed...
Behind an opportunistic defense and the leadership of quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson, the UCLA Bruins upset the No. 15 ranked Washington Huskies, 40-32 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena last Friday Night. The high scoring affair produced 909 yards in total offense between the two offensive powers. The victory moved the Bruins to 5-0 for the season, 2-0 in Pac-12 conference play, and is the first time since 2013 that the Bruins have started 5-0. The win was the eighth consecutive regular season...
1. Philadelphia Eagles (4-0): The Eagles still remain the only undefeated team in the NFL and statistically look like the best team in football. The Eagles second in total offensive yardage per game, second in scoring per game, third in defensive yardage allowed per game and first in turnover ratio. They are showing few weaknesses. Next: -5.5 at Arizona Cardinals – Sun, Oct. 9 – O/U 48.5 (ATS: 3-1 – O/U: 2-2) 2. Buffalo Bills (3-1): The Bills overcame a 17-point deficit to beat the Ravens in na...
The season is young, but in the words of singer Jackson Browne, the Los Angeles Chargers are already "Running on Empty." On Sunday at Sofi Stadium in Inglewood, the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars hammered the Chargers, 38-10, in a game that the Jaguars never trailed in. The victory ended an 18-game losing streak on the road for the Jaguars. The victory also moved the Jaguars to 2-1 for the young season and in first place in the AFC South. The victory was only the fourth in 19 games on the west co...
1. Philadelphia Eagles (3-0): The Eagles are the only undefeated team in the NFC and lead the NFL in total offense at yards per game and are 5th in total defense at yards per game allowed. They are not a fluke; they have a good football team. Next: -6.5 vs Jacksonville Jaguars – Sun, Oct. 2 – O/U 46 (ATS: 2-1 – O/U: 1-2) 2. Miami Dolphins (3-0): Somehow the Dolphins are unbeaten after three weeks, despite being ranked 31st on defense and 13th on offense. Defensively, the Dolphins are allow...
There is not much that seems to rattle UCLA Bruins head football coach Chip Kelly, the unflappable leader of UCLA football. But even Kelly had to be a little worried about the performance of his Bruins football team on Saturday afternoon at the Rose Bowl. The Bruins needed a last second field goal from kicker Nicholas Barr-Mira to defeat the South Alabama Jaguars, 32-31. The Bruins came out flat against the Jaguars, and the crowd of 29,344 fans also seemed flat, as the Jaguars played an...
The Los Angeles Chargers will return home to play this Sunday, September 25th, at Sofi Stadium in Inglewood, to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars. Both the Chargers and Jaguars are 1-1 for the season, with the Chargers coming off a stunning loss to the Kansa City Chiefs, 27-24 and the Jaguars coming off a dominant win over the Indianapolis Colts, 24-0. The Chargers were tied 17-17 in the 4th quarter of their Thursday Night game against the Chiefs and following a catch-and-run of 29 yards to...
1. Buffalo Bills (2-0): The Bills have easily defeated the Super Bowl champion Rams 31-10 and crushed the Tennessee Titans on Monday Night 41-7. The Titans had the best record in the AFC last season.

Kansas City Chiefs (2-0): The Chiefs escaped with a victory over the Chargers, but they did not look like the better team. They looked like the team that would find a way...
For the first time in UCLA Bruins football history, the Bruins played an FCS school on Saturday, defeating the Alabama State Hornets 45-7 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. It was also their first game ever in football against an HBCU school (Historically Black Colleges and Universities). UCLA plays football at the FBS level, the highest level of college football. The FCS is the second highest level of collegiate football. With the victory, the Bruins went to 2-0 for the season. The Hornets fell to...
As the late great former Ohio State head coach Woody Hayes once said, "There can be no great victories in life without great adversity." For the UCLA Bruins football team, that is a quote they should embrace. On an incredibly hot day at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, the UCLA Bruins overcame the heat and their own mistakes to defeat the Bowling Green State University Falcons, 45-17. The Bruins were 24-point favorites going into the game but trailed the Falcons 17-7 early in the second quarter. A...
1. Buffalo Bills (1-0): The Bills easily defeated the Super Bowl champion Rams and let the NFL world know that they are the team to beat in 2022.

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes was selected the AFC Offensive Player of the Week in Wee...
In the 2022 offseason, the Los Angeles Chargers started with about $58 million in salary cap space, according to Spotrac.com and had eight draft picks in the 2022 NFL draft. The money and the picks allowed the Chargers to reshape the roster, which was very evident in a Week 1, 24-19 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood last Sunday. Quarterback Justin Herbert threw three touchdown passes in leading the Chargers to victory. The three touchdown passes went to three...

1. Los Angeles Rams (0-0): The Rams added eight-time All-Pro linebacker Bobby Wagner to their defense in the offseason and wide receiver Allen Robinson, a legitimate No. 1-type receiver to their offense.
