The Eagles, despite having the better record at 11-6, are 5.5-point favorites according to DraftKings, with the moneyline holding at -238 as opposed to the 49ers' +195.

Photo Credit to Auto Racing 1 With the 2025 Formula One season officially coming to a close, it's time to reflect on just how good each driver was this season. Though there were a fair share of disappointing performances among the grid, many of the drivers exceeded expectations, making it all the more difficult to put into an order. Nevertheless, what better way to cap off a season with limitless memories than reflecting on each driver's season? Before we get into my ranking,

The Patriots, who stand at a record of 13-3, are still in the hunt for the #1 seed in the AFC, while the 7-9 Dolphins will be looking to play spoiler to the party. There is still a lot at stake for both teams, so let's get right into the preview! Injury Report Credit to Kenneth R

With a new champion crowned, it marks the end of what will go down as one of the most unexpected and unpredictable seasons we have had in the sport. Drivers and teams alike fought until the very end, with many exceeding expectations. All eyes are now pointed toward 2026, but before we close out 2025, let's analyze some winners a

The race itself was shaping to be as expected, extremely difficult to overtake for drivers and difficult to watch for viewers, but it did give us a result that will leave another mark on an insane Drivers' Championship.

With a bye on the horizon and the number one seed fully in play, a lot is at stake for the Patriots this week. However, based on the teams' records, this should be an easy game for the Pats, right? In my opinion, this game might be a bit closer than meets the eye. So, with that in min
