As I am writing this, it is late Monday night on the West Coast. I just got off work, and while I was on my shift, reports surfaced that James Harden has unexpectedly requested a trade from the Los Angeles Clippers. Completely out of nowhere. I am genuinely shocked. The Clippers have been playing great basketball recently after a tough stretch earlier in the season. Harden has arguably been playing his best basketball in years. He is not the MVP version of himself from Housto

As the Super Bowl gets closer, many of us are starting to look at wagers, trying to figure out how we can make a little money on the game. For me, though, I won’t be making nearly as many bets as I usually do during the Super Bowl because I already have a dog in this fight. As a Seattle Seahawks fan, I’m going to be emotionally invested in this game, and I don’t want to be financially invested as well. I'm sure you understand. That said, I can’t help but dive a little into ga

As the Super Bowl approaches this Sunday, I thought now would be the perfect time to rank my top 30 quarterbacks in the NFL for this year. The Super Bowl often gives us the tendency to overreact to one great performance or one bad one, so I wanted to get these rankings down before Sunday, without letting a single game sway my opinions. I’m ranking the top 30 quarterbacks in the NFL this year who were their team’s starting quarterback going into the season. For example, Kirk C

As Super Bowl Sunday gets closer and closer, I thought it would be a great time to take a step back and analyze both the rosters of the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots and see how both teams' best players stack up against one another.  These players had the most impact in leading their clubs to the biggest stage in football, and everyone on this list will be relied upon if their team looks to be the last one left standing. 15: Kenneth Walker III, Seattle Seahawks, R

Last year at this time, Sam Darnold was finishing his 2024 NFL season with the Minnesota Vikings. That season started like it was the beginning of the revitalization of his career after several disappointing stops across the NFL. For a few months, it seemed like the former third overall pick had finally found a long-term home. However, that optimism faded quickly. After two poor performances at the end of the season in the team's most important games, including a Week 18 game

It’s been a couple of days now since the Seattle Seahawks beat the Los Angeles Rams in a thriller in the NFC Championship Game, 31–27, to advance to their first Super Bowl in 11 years. And isn't it funny that the last time they were here, they faced the New England Patriots, and now, once again, they’ll face those same foes from Boston for all the marbles. We all know what happened last time. The Russell Wilson interception at the one-yard line by Patriots cornerback Malcom B

For me, right off the bat, it’s just going to be so nostalgic.

Another day, and another day closer to the NFC Championship on Sunday between my favourite team, the Seattle Seahawks, and the Los Angeles Rams where a trip to Super Bowl LX in San Francisco is on the line. And if you took one look at my social feeds right now, it is nothing but edits, previews, and predictions for this game. Because of that, I mainly wanted to give a huge shout out in this post to all the TikTok and Instagram editors who have been putting together these hype

I genuinely can’t believe the NFL expects me to wait all the way until Sunday night for this. The Seattle Seahawks, my Seattle Seahawks, are taking on the Los Angeles Rams with a trip to Super Bowl LX on the line, and I honestly don’t know how I’m supposed to handle the next few days. There are going to be a lot of blog posts coming, most likely all centered around this game and previewing it from every angle. A lot of the talk all week has been about how the Rams and Seahawk

Well… that was a crazy weekend. The divisional round of the NFL playoffs is over, and the conference championship games are officially set. In the AFC, you’ve got the New England Patriots heading to Denver to take on a Bo Nix–less Broncos team after Nix broke his ankle in the final moments of their win over Buffalo. But let’s be honest. All eyes are on the NFC. Because this is the matchup we all expected. This is the matchup NFL fans deserve. The Los Angeles Rams vs. the Seat

Another year, another year of playoff heartbreak for the Buffalo Bills and their fans. The Bills lost 33–30 in overtime to the Denver Broncos on the road in the divisional round, and while officiating was mentioned afterward, and yes, the refs didn’t exactly help, the Bills should’ve never been in a position to let the stripes determine their fate to begin with. Josh Allen, their franchise quarterback, turned the ball over four times and the team turned it over five times on

NFL: Buffalo Bills Moneyline @ Denver Broncos (-105)  I originally thought Denver could make a Super Bowl run, but that was before realizing they’d be running into Josh Allen. Bo Nix has struggled against winning teams, and Buffalo has owned this matchup recently, including a 31–7 postseason win last year. Getting Josh Allen a

It all comes down to tomorrow night. I genuinely cannot remember the last time I felt this nervous, excited, anxious, and scared about a sporting event all at once. Tomorrow, the Seattle Seahawks play their first playoff game of the year, hosting the San Francisco 49ers in a divisional-round matchup at Lumen Field. This isn’t just any playoff game. It’s a division rivalry game. And it’s one where the Seahawks enter as the number one seed in the NFC. They are currently the Las

The Silcoff Selections are here for January 16th, 2026. With all the action in sports tonight, here are some of my favourite plays across sports today. NHL: Los Angeles Kings Moneyline (-150) vs Anaheim Ducks Anaheim’s season has gone off the rails after a strong start, and they come into this one shorthanded without top scorer Leo Carlsson, while Chris Kreider is also questionable. The Kings have dominated this matchup, winning eight of the last ten against the Ducks. On hom

The Silcoff Selections are here for January 14th, 2026. With all the action in sports tonight, here are some of my favourite plays across sports today. NHL: Philadelphia Flyers @ Buffalo Sabres over 6 Total Goals (-125) The over has hit in 7 of the last 10 meetings between these teams and pushed twice. That trend includes both matchups this season, which finished with 7 and 8 total goals respectively. With how these two tend to play against each other, I expect the offense to

The Silcoff Selections are here for January 13th, 2026. With all the action in sports tonight, here are some of my favourite plays across sports today. NHL: Vancouver Canucks @ Ottawa Senators over 6 Total Goals (-125) The over has hit in eight of the last ten meetings between these two teams, and I like it to continue tonight. Both Ottawa and Vancouver are struggling defensively right now, and neither team inspires much confidence in net. The Senators’ goaltending situation

The Silcoff Selections are here for January 12th, 2026. With all the action in sports tonight, here are some of my favourite plays across sports today. NFL: Pittsburgh Steelers Team Total Over 16.5 Points (-140) vs Houston Texans Yes, Houston has one of the best defenses in the NFL, but lately we’ve seen they can still give up big plays in the right spots. Outside of the Week 17 game against Cleveland, Aaron Rodgers has been playing solid football, and getting DK Metcalf back

The Los Angeles Chargers’ 2025 season came to an end on Sunday night with a 16–3 road loss to the New England Patriots in the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs. This was a game that was fairly ugly and did not have many explosive offense plays or highlight-reel moments. It was a defensive struggle for most of the night, where points were hard to come by and both teams struggled to move the ball consistently. For New England, Drake Maye did not have a great game in his playo

The Silcoff Selections are here for January 10th, 2026. With all the action in sports tonight, here are some of my favourite plays across sports today. NFL: Carolina Panthers Team Total Over 16.5 Points (-135) vs Los Angeles Rams Carolina already showed they can move the ball against the Rams earlier this season, scoring 31 points in that matchup. While many won’t give the Panthers much of a chance here, the Rams’ secondary is beatable and presents opportunities to put points
