NFL NEWS ROUNDUP
Week 18 Playoff Picture Preview
As we approach the final week of the NFL regular season, anticipation is high with sixteen divisional rivalry matchups and critical playoff spots up for grabs. With only three spots remaining in the AFC and two in the NFC, eleven teams are still in the fight for postseason glory. While the Fantasy Football season may be over, the NFL serves up one more week of explosive action. Brace yourselves, though, as key players from the Browns, Chiefs, Ravens, Rams, and 49ers are set to rest this week, their playoff spots already secured.
Bears Secure Coveted Number One Pick in the Draft
An NFL first has happened, the Carolina Panthers traded their 2024 first round pick to move up in the draft, only for that pick to end up being the first overall pick in the draft the next year. However, the situation is not all sunshine and rainbows for the Bears. The 2024 draft boasts top-tier quarterback prospects Caleb Williams and Drake Maye, forcing the Bears' staff and fanbase to make a pivotal decision within a tight three-and-a-half-month window. The dilemma: stick with Justin Fields and build around him or take a chance on a rookie QB and hit the reset button.
Black Monday Looms as Regular Season Winds Down
With the NFL regular season concluding on Sunday, January 7th, teams not making the postseason are gearing up to make tough decisions about their future. Rumors are already swirling about head coaching changes, with notable names like Bill Belichick and Ron Rivera in the mix. The entire NFC South could see coaching overhauls in 2024, given lackluster seasons across the board. The coaching carousel is gaining momentum, with three teams already on the hunt for new leadership and the potential for double-digit changes before the Super Bowl. Keep an eye out for teams also seeking new general managers, and if the Patriots part ways with Bill Belichick, it will mark the first time since 1993, under Bill Parcells, that they simultaneously have a new head coach and GM. The winds of change are blowing, and Black Monday is on the horizon.
Stat of the Week
Ezekiel Elliott led all RBs in Snap Share over the fantasy playoffs at 83.3%. He also finished third in total targets at 19.
