Vancouver Canucks center Elias Pettersson dished out two helpers and scored once in a 6-3 win on Sunday night.

Monday Night Football Starts and Sits - Steelers vs Bears

Last week’s Monday night game featured a close contest between the Kansas City Chiefs and New York Giants.

Broncos Defense Stymies Cowboys Offense In Stunner

The Denver Broncos defense wasn't really given any chance on the road against the Dallas Cowboys offense with a returning Dak Prescott in Week 9, especially after just trading All-Pro pass-rusher Von Miller earlier in the week. No Miller, no problem. The Broncos stunned the football world by winning 30-16 and holding the best offense […]

Brandon McManus Misses Two Kicks In Win Over Dallas

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus entered the Week 9 game against the Dallas Cowboys with just one missed kick in eight weeks. He ended up missing his second field-goal attempt and first extra-point try in the surprising 30-16 upset win, but he also made three field goals (including a 53-yarder) and another extra point. Despite […]

Courtland Sutton Puts Up Another Stinker

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton has three catches for 49 yards on six targets in the last two weeks combined since Jerry Jeudy returned from his high ankle sprain. Sutton caught just one of his two targets for a season-low nine yards in the 30-16 win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9, and […]

Albert Okwuegbunam Sees Extra Looks In Week 9 Win

Denver Broncos tight end Albert Okwuegbunam caught four of five targets for 25 yards receiving in the Week 9 upset win over the Dallas Cowboys by a score of 30-16.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy was tops on the team in receptions (six) and targets (eight) and was able to gain 69 yards receiving in the 30-16 Week 9 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. Jeudy suffered a high ankle sprain in Week 1 and returned last weekend to catch all four of […]

Tim Patrick Leads Broncos In Receiving For Second Straight Week

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick led the team in receiving for the second straight week and also caught his fourth touchdown of the season in the 31-16 upset win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9.

Melvin Gordon III Stretches Touchdown Streak To Three Games

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III had a season-high 21 carries for 80 yards and a touchdown in the upset win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9 by a score of 30-16. Gordon added two catches on his three targets for 15 yards. He has now found the end zone four times in […]

Javonte Williams Reaches Century Mark For The First Time

Denver Broncos rookie running back Javonte Williams had his first 100-yard rushing game of his career in the shocking 31-16 Week 9 upset win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. He had a season-high 17 carries on the day for 111 yards (6.5 yards per carry), but he wasn't targeted in the passing game. Williams […]

Teddy Bridgewater Engineers Huge Upset Over Cowboys

Denver Broncos quarterback Teddy Bridgewater led one of the most improbable upsets of the NFL season on Sunday in a 30-16 Week 9 win over the Dallas Cowboys on the road. Bridgewater went 19-for-28 for 249 yards and a touchdown and he added a touchdown run on a QB sneak. He also converted a two-point […]

Marquise Brown Surpasses 100 Yards Against Vikings

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown finished Sunday's win over the Vikings by catching nine of his 12 targets for 116 yards. Hollywood led the team in receiving, doing so while the run game was featured heavily throughout the afternoon. Nonetheless, the 24-year-old is well on his way to having the best season of his […]

Mark Andrews Fizzles Against Vikings

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews finished with only four catches for 44 yards during the overtime win over the Vikings. The veteran was targeted 10 times by Lamar Jackson on the afternoon, although obviously, he couldn't do much with his afforded opportunities to get involved. Nonetheless, inconsistent play has been the norm for Andrews […]

Lamar Jackson Explodes In Week 9

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson finished with 266 yards and three touchdowns on 27-for-41 passing during the overtime win over the Vikings. He did throw two interceptions as well. However, the signal-caller managed to offset his erroneous tosses by racking up 120 yards off 21 carries, nearly more touches than Devonta Freeman and Le'Veon Bell […]

Tee Higgins Leads Bengals In Receiving In Week 9

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins finished with six catches for 78 yards during the blowout loss to the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. It was a relatively productive outing for the 22-year-old despite Joe Burrow having issues getting anything going. Yet, he continues to be overshadowed by Ja'Marr Chase, who has seven touchdown grabs on […]

Elias Pettersson Struggling To Score Goals In Vancouver

Vancouver Canucks center Elias Pettersson has just one goal in the early going so far. That is starting to concern some members of the Vancouver staff. This is a player who shoots around 15-16% so 3.2% is a considerably troubling number. Last year, most forget that Pettersson had no goals in his first six contests […]

Conor Garland Looks To Keep Hot Offensive Hand Rolling

Vancouver Canucks right-winger Conor Garland has gotten off to an excellent start this 2021-22 season. He has ten points in 11 games overall on 20 shots. Garland has a game-winning goal and three goals this year so far. The forward is shooting at just under two shots per game (2.75 per game in 2020-21). His […]

Thatcher Demko Confirmed To Start Against Dallas

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko will get the start versus the Dallas Stars on Sunday night. This will be the first time the Canucks' netminder will face Dallas. Demko is 3-3 in his last six starts with a 2.21 goals-against average and .927 save percentage. Vancouver has not played Dallas since November of 2019. That […]

Jonnu Smith Is Barely Involved Again

New England Patriots tight end Jonnu Smith (shoulder) was unable to get through the Week 9 matchup with the Carolina Panthers. He exited in the fourth quarter and didn't return to the contest. Before that, Smith had one reception on two targets for four yards in the win. Fellow tight end Hunter Henry has been […]

Hunter Henry Catches TD Against Carolina

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry was one of the few players to find the end zone during this Week 9 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Henry hauled in two of his three targets for 19 yards and one touchdown in the win. This marked Henry's fifth touchdown over the last six games. To […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Injures Leg Against Cardinals

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (leg) was injured during Sunday's loss to Arizona. During the post-game press conference, the veteran reported he sustained a lower leg injury during the second half. He was also observed walking somewhat gingerly, so it would appear that his status for Monday Night Football against the Rams in Week […]

Giants Defense Comes Up Big In Week 9 Win

The New York Giants defense/special teams allowed 403 yards of total offense to the Las Raiders in Sunday's 23-16 win. The Giants' defense came up big in the third quarter when Xavier McKinney intercepted a pass from Raiders QB Derek Carr and took it 41 yards to the house to give the Giants a 17-13 […]

Anton Khudobin Gets Start For Dallas On Sunday Night

Dallas Stars goaltender Anton Khudobin will be between the pipes on Sunday night in Vancouver. Khudobin is 4-0-2 against Vancouver in his career and makes consecutive starts for the first time this season. He has a 2.74 goals-against average and a .897 save percentage. Dallas is on a 9-0-2 run at Rogers Place and has […]

Kendrick Bourne Quiet In Week 9

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne wasn't able to make much of an impact for the second straight game. In Week 9, Bourne hauled in three of his four targets for 34 yards in the win over the Carolina Panthers. This marked the second game in a row that Bourne has finished with 40 […]

Jamie Benn Scoring Goals Across Canada For Dallas

Dallas Stars left-winger Jamie Benn is still struggling this season but has scored goals in consecutive games. While Benn has just four points in ten games for Dallas, at least the goals and increased scoring chances are encouraging. The other problem is the possession numbers which are way off early (44.1% -- CF, 7% below […]

Jakobi Meyers Posts Dud Against Panthers

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers posted his worst performance of the season against the Carolina Panthers in Week 9. He hauled in one of his four targets for eight yards in the win on Sunday. To be fair, it was a game where quarterback Mac Jones completed a total of 12 passes on […]

Ja'Marr Chase Fails To Score On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase finished with six catches for 49 yards during the loss to Cleveland on Sunday. The rookie was targeted 13 times on the afternoon, although he caught less than half of his throws from Joe Burrow, who had two interceptions. Nonetheless, the 21-year-old remains one of the best in the […]

Tyler Seguin Finding Form As Vancouver Looms

Dallas Stars center Tyler Seguin is starting to find his form as a big meeting with the Vancouver Canucks looms Sunday night. Seguin has three points in his past three games. The forward is up to six points in ten games on the season and his shot release looks as crisp as ever. This includes […]

Graham Gano Perfect In Week 9 Win

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano went 3-for-3 in field-goal attempts and 2-for-2 in extra-point tries during Sunday's 23-16 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He drilled field goals from 32, 35, and 38 yards out in Sunday's win. The 34-year-old has yet to miss an extra-point (12-for-12) this season and has made eight consecutive […]
