With the Super Bowl still weeks away, we take a break from weekly picks to focus on major head coaching hires around the league.

The Pittsburgh Steelers hired Mike McCarthy as Mike Tomlin’s successor. The Baltimore Ravens brought in former Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter. And the Buffalo Bills announced Joe Brady as their new head coach.

What do these moves mean for the AFC North and the conference as a whole? And in Buffalo, will Josh Allen benefit more under Joe Brady than he did with Sean McDermott?

Before diving into NFL conference championship weekend, we address the growing tension between the Los Angeles Lakers and LeBron James.

A recent ESPN report detailed years of infighting within the Buss family, the sale of the franchise, and a shocking revelation that Jeanie Buss attempted to trade LeBron James to the LA Clippers in 2022.

What does this say about the Lakers moving forward? Are they positioned to contend, or stuck in dysfunction? And given everything that’s now public, should LeBron move on from the Lakers as soon as possible?

The AFC playoff race has become unpredictable as several of the conference’s top contenders continue to slide. The Kansas City Chiefs took another loss, falling 20–10 at home to the Houston Texans. The Baltimore Ravens dropped a divisional game to the Pittsburgh Steelers, 27–22. And the Cincinnati Bengals suffered a potentially season-ending setback on the road against the Buffalo Bills, losing 39–34. With three preseason AFC favorites trending downward, what is more likely: • All three teams missing the playoffs? • Or one of them catching fire and making a deep postseason run? And of the three quarterbacks — Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, and Joe Burrow — who is having the true “season from hell”? We break down the AFC landscape, the quarterback struggles, and what each franchise can still salvage.
