After recording a huge win against the Green Bay Packers in Week 10, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Carolina Panthers</a> couldn’t keep up with divisional rivals, the New Orleans Saints, losing at home 17-7 on Sunday.&nbsp;



As the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ closest pursuers in the NFC South, the Panthers were expected to make a statement against a weakened opponent. However, that never happened, despite a 7-3 win in the first quarter.&nbsp;



New Orleans, led by rookie Tyler Shough (19-for-27 for 282 yards and two touchdowns), took care of business and gave the Panthers their fifth loss of the season. Bryce Young responded with 124 yards on 17 completions. He failed to find the end zone, as running back sensation Rico Dowdle scored the Panthers’ single touchdown of the duel.&nbsp;



<h2>Panthers rookie assigns blame after loss to Saints</h2>



The Panthers didn’t look like their regular selves on Sunday. Asked if the team didn’t put enough effort into practice, rookie linebacker Nic Scourton noted that they could have done a better job to prepare for this game.&nbsp;

“A hundred percent,” rookie Nic Scourton said. “I think some guys got too big-headed and forgot what really goes on in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a>. Like I said, I haven’t been here long so I can’t speak on what it’s supposed to look like and everything like that. But I know what we’re supposed to look like because I work hard myself. I think getting back to our roots this week and putting our hard hat back on and getting to work.”



The Panthers have struggled to find consistency this season. They have several questions to answer if they want to pose a real threat to the Buccaneers, who lost against the New England Patriots on Sunday.&nbsp;

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Indianapolis Colts</a> are on a roll in the 2025 NFL season. After signing veteran quarterback Daniel Jones in the offseason, they moved on from Anthony Richardson, who was initially expected to lead the franchise.&nbsp;



Jones has put up a show with the Colts, leading them to an 8-2 record and the No. 1 seed in the AFC. In 10 games, Jones has gone 223 of 319 for 2,659 yards and 15 touchdowns against seven interceptions.&nbsp;



He has shown off his mobility, too, carrying the ball 40 times for 143 yards and five touchdowns. Jones has revitalized his career at Lucas Oil Stadium, while his old team has gone 2-8 in its first full season without him.&nbsp;



After starting Russell Wilson for the first three weeks and then Jaxson Dart after that, the Giants couldn’t collect more wins, despite playing an entertaining brand of football. Brian Daboll was fired as head coach on Monday, and the decision garnered significant attention from around the league.&nbsp;



<h2>Daniel Jones talks Brian Daboll’s firing&nbsp;</h2>



After the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL </a>world learned the news that Daboll wasn’t the Giants’ head coach anymore, Jones shared his thoughts on the matter.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251112_BUS_524742_Brian-Daboll-head-coach-for-the-New-York-Giants-1024x576_a4e61ac8.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Brian Daboll, head coach for the New York Giants" class="wp-image-308045" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Brian Daboll, head coach for the New York Giants</figcaption></figure>



“Yeah, I just kind of heard about it recently,” Jones said. “Obviously you never want to see anyone fired. It’s an unfortunate part of this business. So yeah, I think that’s the reaction. Hope the best for him and everybody there in New York.”



From 2019 through 2024, Jones played 70 games with the Giants, going 1,437 of 2,241 for 14,582 yards, 70 touchdowns, and 47 interceptions. After being cut last November, he signed with the Minnesota Vikings for the rest of the 2024 season.

Bill Belichick appears to be getting the hang of college football after winning his last two games with the North Carolina Tar Heels (27-10 at Syracuse and 20-15 against Stanford), improving to 4-5 in his first season.&nbsp;



The future Hall of Fame coach is still mentioned among potential candidates to return to the NFL sidelines once the coaching carousel starts. On Monday, Brian Daboll became the second head coach fired this season after Brian Callahan was dismissed by the Tennessee Titans in October.&nbsp;



As soon as fans learned about this news, speculation began. Belichick, as usual, has been named among coaches who could take over the Giants, a team he knows very well both as an employee and an opponent.&nbsp;



<h2>Insider says Bill Belichick could draw interest from Giants&nbsp;</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> insider John Frascella tweeted on Monday that the eight-time Super Bowl-winning coach should be a candidate to join the Giants.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251112_BUS_524741_bill-belichick-2-1024x576_eb24195e.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Bill Belichick in Chapel Hill, North Carolina." class="wp-image-485444" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Bill Belichick in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. </figcaption></figure>



“So we can start the Bill Belichick countdown, now? We all know where this is headed with the Giants…” Frascella tweeted. More than that, Gary Myers echoed the sentiment, noting that Belichick’s relationship with the team has always been excellent.&nbsp;



“I think Belichick would do it in a second,” Myers said on “Valentine’s Views” podcast. “He loves the Giants. I mean he loves the Giants. He gets emotional and melancholy reminiscing about his Giant years. Although that was a long time ago, the Giants have stolen his heart.”



Belichick joined the Giants in 1979 as a special teams coach and defensive assistant. He added linebackers coaching to his duties a year later, later becoming the team’s defensive coordinator in 1985. He won two Super Bowls with the “Big Blue,” including the XXV edition, where Belichick stopped the Buffalo Bills with a game plan that has been placed in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.&nbsp;

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/seattle-seahawks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Seattle Seahawks </a>continued their remarkable run in the 2025 NFL season with a commanding 44-22 win over the Arizona Cardinals that was pretty much sealed in the first half.&nbsp;



The NFC West duel started with the Seahawks scoring 21 points in the first quarter before adding 18 in the second period. Sam Darnold didn’t need to do much to beat the Cardinals. He went 10 of 12 for 178 yards and one touchdown on Sunday.&nbsp;



Running backs Zach Charbonnet and George Holani scored a touchdown each, contributing to an easy win. Even linebacker DeMarcus Lawrence scored twice, as he recovered two fumbles and took them all the way to the end zone.&nbsp;



The Seahawks improved to 7-2 with this result, and while other teams are drawing more attention, they have earned their respect, too.&nbsp;



<h2>Analyst lauds Seahawks after big win over Cardinals&nbsp;</h2>



During Monday’s edition of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> Network’s “Good Morning Football,” Jamie Erdahl picked the Seahawks’ win over the Cardinals as the best of Week 10, noting that they swept their rivals off the field quickly.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="559" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251112_BUS_524743_mike-macdonald_2-1024x559_aa7183a3.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=559" alt="mike-macdonald" class="wp-image-299074" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald </figcaption></figure>



“You know what’s something I hear all the time in football that I hate? ‘Start fast, start fast, start fast.’ There’s a new definition of starting fast at the NFL; it’s called the Seattle Seahawks yesterday against the Cardinals,” Erdahl said. “The Seahawks put up 38 points in the first half. Frankly, you put 38 points in the first half, I don’t care about the final score, and 38 in the first half would have beat every other team that lost so far in Week 10. That is stupid ridiculous starting fast, it’s the only starting fast that I care about officially now.”



The Seahawks continue to co-lead the NFC West division, and their next matchup could define the fate of the division. They will clash against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium on Sunday.&nbsp;

The <a href="http://bolavip.com/en/topic/indianapolis-colts" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Indianapolis Colts</a> survived a close, hard-fought game against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin, Germany, on Sunday. The AFC No. 1 seed had to put in an extra effort to move past Raheem Morris’ team.



Jonathan Taylor once again put up a show, carrying the ball 32 times for 244 yards and three touchdowns, including the game-winner in overtime. Daniel Jones was effective once again, going 19 of 26 for 255 yards and one touchdown.&nbsp;



The Falcons tried hard, with running back Tyler Allgeier scoring two rushing touchdowns and Michael Penix Jr. connecting 12 of his 28 pass attempts for 177 yards and one score.&nbsp;



The Colts remain as one of the best teams in the league after bouncing back from a 27-20 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. Head coach Shane Steichen lauded one player who brought extra energy to the offense.



<h2>Shane Steichen lauds Colts WR amid explosive season</h2>



In the wake of the game, Steichen put one of his players in the spotlight. Wide receiver Alec Pierce had a solid game in Germany, posting four catches for 84 yards and a 37-yard touchdown.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251112_BUS_524745_Shane-Steichen-head-coach-of-the-Indianapolis-Colts-1024x576_429c6845.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Shane Steichen, head coach of the Indianapolis Colts" class="wp-image-304122" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Shane Steichen, head coach of the Indianapolis Colts</figcaption></figure>



“Yeah I mean, he’s been arrow up since he’s got here,” Steichen said of Pierce’s progress. “He’s making big-time plays down the field. His intermediate game is making big strides so he’s able to do a lot for us offensively – moving him around, trying to get certain matchups.”



Pierce is playing his fourth season in the league, and he’s just 14 receptions (41) and 27 targets (78) away from surpassing their best campaign. He has recorded 585 yards and one touchdown this season.&nbsp;

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers">Aaron Rodgers</a> called for calm after the Steelers’ loss to the Chargers in Week 10. Although the Baltimore Ravens are only one game behind in the AFC North, the quarterback sent a clear message to his teammates: Pittsburgh controls its own destiny.



“We got to bounce back. We got a division opponent next week. We’re 5-4. We’re ahead by a game in the division. We got to play better on offense for sure, but, you know, this is part of the season. There’s ups and downs. We can’t ride the wave. I felt like our energy, and it starts with me, it wasn’t as great on offense. I felt like we were just kind of struggling a little bit and couldn’t get a play to get going. We also got to realize that we got four division games left to play. It’s a long season.”



The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers">Pittsburgh Steelers</a> have lost their last four games and will try to avoid a debacle like last season, when they finished the schedule with four consecutive losses and were then crushed in the wild card round of the playoffs by Lamar Jackson’s Ravens.



<h2>Are the Steelers eliminated from the playoffs?</h2>



No. The Steelers are not eliminated from the playoffs and control their own destiny to win the AFC North. A very important detail, mentioned by Rodgers, is that there are four divisional games on the schedule and, most importantly, two pending matchups against the Ravens.


 

 


The big problem is that there are also looming games against the Detroit Lions and the Buffalo Bills that could turn into losses. Their other opponents for the remainder of the year are the Cincinnati Bengals, the Chicago Bears, the Miami Dolphins, and the Cleveland Browns.



The other option is the fight for the wildcard spots. At the moment, the Chargers are the 5th seed with a 7-3 record, the Bills are the 6th seed with 6-3, and the Jacksonville Jaguars are the 7th seed with 5-4.

The New York Giants made headlines on Monday by firing Brian Daboll, in a decision that could impact the rest of the NFL. It could even affect <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/andy-reid">Andy Reid</a> and Patrick Mahomes, with a Kansas City Chiefs assistant coach seen as a potential candidate for the head coaching job in NY.



While the <a href="https://www.giants.com/news/brian-daboll-relieved-of-duties-mike-kafka-to-serve-as-giants-interim-head-coach">Giants have initially named offensive coordinator Mike Kafka as their interim head coach</a>, they could still look for a permanent head coach next year. With that in mind, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network believes Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo would be a name to watch.



Spagnuolo, who turns 66 in December, has played an instrumental role in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Chiefs</a>‘ success with Reid and Mahomes, helping the team win three Super Bowls since taking charge of the defense in 2019.



His name tends to be linked to head coaching openings when the NFL hits the offseason, and it wouldn’t be a surprise for this to happen again if the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-giants">Giants</a> search for an outside candidate.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251112_BUS_525341_Steve-Spagnuolo-1024x576_d335e053.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Steve Spagnuolo of the Chiefs looks on prior to Super Bowl LVII. " class="wp-image-109181" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Steve Spagnuolo of the Chiefs looks on prior to Super Bowl LVII. </figcaption></figure>



Not only is Spagnuolo a respected coordinator in the league, but he also has experience working with the Giants. Before winning multiple Super Bowls with Reid and Mahomes in Kansas City, he earned a ring in NY.



<h2>Steve Spagnuolo’s experience with the NY Giants</h2>


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/mike-tomlin-steelers-cut-2x-super-bowl-champion-with-andy-reid-patrick-mahomes-chiefs-to-bring-back-familiar-face"></div>

 

 


In his first gig as a defensive coordinator in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>, Spagnuolo helped the Giants upset the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII. New York’s defense held Tom Brady’s offense to just 14 points, preventing Bill Belichick’s team from completing a perfect season.



Spagnuolo’s work with Tom Coughlin in NY allowed him to earn an opportunity as a head coach in 2009, helming the St. Louis Rams until 2011. After stops with the New Orleans Saints and the Baltimore Ravens, Spagnuolo returned to New York for a second stint with the Giants in 2015, holding the defensive coordinator job until 2017. He finished that season as the Giants’ interim head coach, with the team going 1-3 on his watch.



It might be a bit early to tell how serious the possibility of a reunion is, but the risk could exist for the Chiefs at the end of the season. Teams usually look at successful coaching staffs to name their next head coach, and Spagnuolo has been a coveted name around the league in recent years.



<h2>Reid, Mahomes already lost a Chiefs coach to Giants</h2>



Reid and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/patrick-mahomes">Mahomes</a> know how lucky they are to continue having Spags on the coaching staff, as Kansas City has seen a number of coaches leave to work elsewhere in recent years.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251112_BUS_525341_mike-kafka-1_6120e393.webp&amp;width=1920&amp;height=1080" alt="Mike Kafka before a Giants game" class="wp-image-523986"></figure><figcaption>Mike Kafka has been named interim head coach of the New York Giants.</figcaption></figure>



Kafka was one of them, as the Giants hired him as offensive coordinator after his contribution to the Chiefs’ offensive success. A former quarterback who played under Reid on the Philadelphia Eagles, Kafka reunited with Big Red in Kansas City to start his coaching career in the NFL in 2017.



Kafka initially joined the Chiefs as offensive quality control coach, earning a promotion to quarterbacks coach for Mahomes’ first year as starter in 2018. The success of that decision led the Chiefs to trust Kafka with more responsibilities, handing him the passing game coordinator duties in 2021.



Kafka went on to help <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brian-daboll">Daboll</a> revitalize the Giants’ offense in 2022, with the Giants eventually adding him the assistant head coach title two years later. Now, his role as interim HC could be an audition to earn the permament job in NY. If the Giants like what they see, they may not need to target Spagnuolo. But if Kafka isn’t the solution, then Reid and Mahomes could face a real possibility of losing their DC.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers">Aaron Rodgers</a> took a long time to decide whether he would play during the 2025 NFL season. At first, retirement seemed very close, but as the months went by, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers">Pittsburgh Steelers</a> became a real option for the veteran.



Mike Tomlin was the key figure in convincing the quarterback that the Steelers’ project could give him one last chance to compete for a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>. Although Rodgers waited to see how the market moved, especially with rumors linking him to the Rams and the Vikings, he ultimately decided to go to the Steel City.



Until just a week ago, Aaron had been praised for his great season leading Pittsburgh’s offense almost without making mistakes. However, a poor performance against the Chargers has sparked many rumors about his future, mainly because of his age and how it’s affecting the quarterback’s mobility.



<h2>Is Aaron Rodgers retiring with Steelers?</h2>



Although Aaron Rodgers has not confirmed whether he will retire with the Pittsburgh Steelers, the quarterback gave a first hint about his future after the game against the Chargers in Los Angeles.


 

 


This was the quarterback’s response when he was asked if this had been the last game of his career in California. “Southern California. Yeah, it could be. Was I thinking about it? No.”



Although in June before preseason Rodgers said on The Pat McAfee Show that this would be his final year as a professional, throughout the regular season he has gradually changed his stance, saying that he will evaluate it when everything is over.

The Miami Dolphins’ season has taken an unexpected turn in recent weeks after a few key wins gave the team some much-needed breathing room. One of the figures under the spotlight was head coach Mike McDaniel, who — along with quarterback <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tua-tagovailoa">Tua Tagovailoa</a> — continues to lead the Dolphins both on and off the field.



During a recent press conference in Madrid ahead of the Dolphins’ game against the Washington Commanders at the Santiago Bernabeu, the quarterback was asked whether the team’s latest win over the Bills had, in any way, helped secure McDaniel’s job.



“You know, I understand the question,” Tagovailoa said. “I know there’s a lot of talk outside about certain individuals, certain people. But I think more so with last week’s game, I think it shows the togetherness of our team. And I don’t think it’s anyone playing for themselves. More so, it really is everyone playing for each other — everyone having to do their job, having the conviction to do their job, and each individual trusting that if I do my job, I’ve got to trust that this guy is going to do his job as well and not try to play hero ball where [it’s], alright, I don’t know if he’s going to do that, so I’m going to go out of my job, out of my way to maybe do his. 



“Then when he does his and you don’t do yours, I think that’s where things fall apart where we’ve got to play with conviction, we just continue to stick together, play together, and I don’t think anyone’s worried about any of that external noise when it comes to that.

“When we play this game, we know what we sign up for. And we know this is a business as well. We want to play for each other. We’re going to do everything we can — we don’t prepare to go out there and think, hey we want to do bad, we want to lose this game. No, we go out there with our hearts, with our minds for war — like that’s what it is, essentially. So, yeah.”



<h2>A win that inspires</h2>


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/dolphins-send-clear-message-to-tua-tagovailoas-key-weapon-for-next-seasons"></div>


The Miami Dolphins finally delivered a statement win, dominating the AFC East rival Buffalo Bills 30-13 on Sunday. This crucial victory provides a massive sigh of relief for head coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mcdaniel">Mike McDaniel</a>, whose job security had been increasingly questioned amid a frustrating mid-season slump. 



Led by a stellar defensive performance—which forced three turnovers—and a highlight-reel effort from running back De’Von Achane, the Dolphins not only snapped a losing streak against the Bills but also injected much-needed life and momentum back into their 2025 campaign. For McDaniel, the air is a little clearer in South Beach, for now.



<h2>Keeping the momentum</h2>



Fresh off their emphatic division win over the Bills, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/miami-dolphins">Miami Dolphins</a> head into this Sunday’s matchup against the struggling Washington Commanders with a singular focus: sustainability. Head coach Mike McDaniel stressed that the Week 10 victory only means something if the team can maintain that high level of intensity and execution. 



With a favorable schedule ahead, starting with Washington’s porous defense, the Dolphins are under pressure to prove that the performance against Buffalo was a turning point, not an anomaly.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/arizona-cardinals" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Arizona Cardinals</a> are going through a tough stretch — and it just got even more complicated. The NFC West team has unexpectedly announced that Marvin Harrison Jr. has been ruled out for their Week 11 game against the San Francisco 49ers.



Arizona has not been the contender many expected this year. The club has struggled with injuries, and now another one has hit the team hard.



On Wednesday, head coach Jonathan Gannon revealed during a press conference that Marvin Harrison Jr. underwent appendicitis surgery earlier this week and will miss Sunday’s matchup against the 49ers.



<h2>When will Marvin Harrison Jr. return?</h2>



The recovery time for an appendectomy is relatively quick — usually between one to two weeks. The Cardinals haven’t set an exact date for Harrison Jr.’s return, but he’s expected to be ready by Week 12.



Harrison Jr. has yet to deliver the performances the Cardinals hoped for when they selected him with the 4th overall pick. So far, the wide receiver’s production has been underwhelming.



In 26 games, Harrison Jr. has 96 catches for 1,410 yards and 12 touchdowns. However, inconsistency at the quarterback position has directly affected his numbers.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-insider-shares-major-update-on-kyler-murrays-future-amid-steelers-trade-rumors"></div>


<h2>Marvin Harrison Jr. isn’t the only WR injured</h2>



With Harrison Jr. sidelined, the Cardinals are expected to elevate Michael Wilson to the WR1 role. This move comes as a surprise to many, as Zay Jones was initially expected to take over.



Unfortunately, it has been confirmed that Jones tore his Achilles last Sunday against the Seahawks and will miss the remainder of the 2025 NFL season. The team signed wide receivers Andre Baccellia to active roster and Jalen Virgil to practice squad due to these injuries.

Mike Tomlin is convinced that the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers">Pittsburgh Steelers</a> will bounce back after a tough loss against the Los Angeles Chargers. The head coach explained that the key lies in football fundamentals.



“You’re not going to win football games not converting third downs and losing the turnover battle. We certainly were loose with the ball in several instances and didn’t convert enough third downs. So, that’s the end result. There’s nothing mystical about it. We’ll be better. We have to be. It’s football. It’s life. We’ll be back.”



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers">Aaron Rodgers</a> and the offense have once again raised a lot of doubts, which is why, for now, the Steelers are far from being <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> contenders. Because of that, when reporters saw how confident Tomlin was, they asked him what gives him confidence that Pittsburgh will be back. “53 years of life and particularly in this business.”



<h2>Can Steelers make the playoffs?</h2>



The Steelers can still make the playoffs with a 4-5 record, but the road has gotten much tougher. In the AFC North race, the Baltimore Ravens are now just one game behind thanks to the return of Lamar Jackson.


 

 


If they don’t win the division, the race for a Wild Card spot will be very difficult, as they still have to face the Bills, Lions, and the Ravens twice. They also can’t take wins against the Bengals or the Miami Dolphins for granted. 



The AFC East looks likely to send two teams to the postseason, so the battle could come down to AFC West teams like the Chiefs, Broncos, and Chargers for the final spots.

<h2>Why are Steelers not running the ball?</h2>



One of the main criticisms of Mike Tomlin in the game against the Chargers was why the team didn’t run the ball more, especially since Jaylen Warren was having success. This was the head coach’s response. “Guys, you’re 0 for 9 or 0 for 10 on third down, you’re not going to have enough snaps. Like we’ve been over that discussion a lot. Next question.”



Tomlin said that Rodgers and the offense need to extend drives; otherwise, they won’t have a chance to win games. “We certainly were not good enough in possession down play on offense. That affected us in a lot of ways. First and foremost, the scoreboard. You got to possess the ball in an effort to score and certainly if you’re not doing a good job on possession downs, you need to have some big play splash. We didn’t really have either.”

Mike Tomlin and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers">Pittsburgh Steelers</a> no longer have any margin for error. After the loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, the team has fallen to a 5-4 record and holds only a one-game lead over the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North.



Inconsistency is the main problem for Tomlin, as week after week, sometimes the defense shines and other times it’s disastrous. Now, the same thing has happened with the offense. Following some strong performances, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers">Aaron Rodgers</a> had one of the worst outings of his career against the Chargers.



The schedule to close out the season will be very tough, with remaining games against teams like the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/buffalo-bills">Buffalo Bills</a>, the Detroit Lions, the Chicago Bears, and two divisional matchups with the Baltimore Ravens. As if that weren’t enough, injuries have been piling up, especially in the secondary.



<h2>Who got injured with Pittsburgh Steelers?</h2>



Mike Tomlin confirmed the injury report to start the week ahead of the game against Joe Flacco and the Cincinnati Bengals. It seems the good news could be the possible return of Isaac Seumalo to help the offensive line.


 

 


“Cole Holcomb is still working his way back to us. He’ll be a limited participant to start the week and we’ll see where that participation goes in terms of the amount and quality of it. Darius Slay is in the concussion protocol and so we’ll let the protocol determine his availability. Jabrill Peppers was running in a limited capacity the latter part of last week. I’d imagine that’ll make him a limited participant and we’ll kind of go from there. Isaac Seumalo is expected to participate in some capacity and then kind of build and go on from there, but we’re optimistic about his return. Scotty Miller has been cleared to practice with his broken finger.”



Peppers’ situation caused Jalen Ramsey to play at the safety position alongside Kyle Dugger, and it seems that will continue, as Tomlin admitted he was very pleased that both were able to prevent big plays from the Chargers. In addition, an important detail is to monitor the progress of Asante Samuel Jr., who was just signed after receiving medical clearance following his spinal fusion procedure.

<h2>Is Aaron Rodgers injured?</h2>



No. Aaron Rodgers is not injured, as Mike Tomlin did not mention him in his report. Over the past few days, there have been many rumors about the quarterback’s situation due to his lack of mobility in the pocket against the Chargers and his inaccuracy. However, the veteran has no physical issues.

The Kansas City Chiefs face a tough challenge this weekend as they take on the Denver Broncos in a divisional showdown that could shape the team’s season. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/andy-reid">Andy Reid</a> knows his squad will need to step up across the board to come out on top — including those players who haven’t been at their best lately.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chris-jones">Chris Jones</a> is certainly one of them. The star defensive lineman — widely regarded as one of the best in the league — hasn’t been performing up to expectations. Coach Reid knows he’ll need Jones at his best to turn things around, especially in a crucial matchup against Bo Nix and the Broncos.



“I think we all need to do better, I would say that,” Reid said on Monday, via the team’s official transcript. “Chris is always striving to do better every day. That’s what has made him such a good player. Again, he’s the guy that they’re going to focus on, and if you’re getting a double team, that’s who’s getting doubled. He’ll get his as we go forward, it’s just important that he stays consistent and keeps working hard.”



While questions about Jones’ performance are commonplace, Reid’s experience leading the team tells him that every player must step up if they hope to turn the situation around.

<h2>Chris Jones’ numbers this season</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Kansas City Chiefs</a> defensive tackle Chris Jones has maintained his status as a key interior disruptor through the first nine games of the 2025 season. Despite facing constant double-teams, the veteran has amassed 2.0 sacks and a total of 13 combined tackles (6 solo, 7 assisted). 


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-travis-kelce-and-chiefs-expect-return-of-patrick-mahomes-key-teammate-for-game-against-broncos"></div>


His impact extends beyond the box score, though, as he has also tallied 5 tackles for loss and registered 1 pass defended across the defensive line. While the Chiefs’ defense works to hit its mid-season stride, Jones remains the immovable force anchoring the unit.



<h2>Lurking in the AFC West</h2>



The Kansas City Chiefs are facing a do-or-die scenario as they prepare for their critical AFC West showdown against the division-leading Denver Broncos. Currently sitting at 5-4, the Chiefs are trailing both the 8-2 Broncos and the 7-3 Chargers, putting their nine-year divisional dominance streak in serious jeopardy. 



A loss to Denver would create a virtual gap, making this game an absolute must-win for the reigning AFC champions to keep their legitimate hopes of securing the AFC West title alive.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers">Aaron Rodgers</a> had one of the worst games of his career in the Steelers’ 25-10 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. After a very solid start to the season, the quarterback showed some concerning signs.



Although Mike Tomlin and Rodgers himself have described the situation as a ‘night off,’ many experts have pointed out that the veteran looked uncomfortable in the pocket. That led to several sacks and even a safety early in the game.



The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> champion quarterback admitted that, at 41 years old, he’s no longer the same as he once was. A lot to improve if the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers">Pittsburgh Steelers</a> want to have a chance to reach the playoffs. “I got to watch the film. I mean, I can’t take off like I used to. I felt like I was moving okay in the pocket, but maybe I need to sit back a little more. I’ll look at that.”



<h2>Who will be starting quarterback for Steelers?</h2>



Aaron Rodgers will remain the starting quarterback for the Steelers. Head coach Mike Tomlin expressed full confidence that the veteran is ready to bounce back against the Bengals, and therefore no drastic changes are expected.


 

 


Another decision that Rodgers was heavily criticized for came late in the game with the Chargers, when on fourth down he attempted a sort of back-shoulder pass to DK Metcalf, despite the star wide receiver being double-covered.



Rodgers admitted that he made a mistake on that crucial sequence. “I probably should have thrown it to the other side. He was doubled. I should have thrown it more back shoulder or maybe work the other side.”
