Chicago Bears Hire Ben Johnson: The Chicago Bears are finalizing a deal to make Ben Johnson their next head coach. Johnson, 38, was one of the hottest commodities on the market as the offensive coordinator of the Detroit Lions since 2022. The Lions led the league with 33.2 points per game while the Bears were fifth worst despite having Caleb Williams and offensive stars like Keenan Allen and D'Andre Swift.

New England Patriots Hire Mike Vrabel: One week after firing Jerod Mayo, the New England Patriots hired Mike Vrabel to be head coach. Vrabel's a former Patriots linebacker who had four consecutive winning seasons leading the Tennessee Titans. His firing by that franchise is widely regarded as a major blunder.

No NBA Pickem this week. I got the flu Monday and am no Michael Jordan.

I would've loved to see Vrabel hired in Jacksonville. The Jags haven't had four consecutive winning seasons in this century.

How many years did the Hanson Brothers play for the Charlestown Chiefs?
posted by rcade at 03:40 PM on January 12, 2025
Fixed. I thought I had everybody because there were 12 quarterbacks, but Jared Goff was in there despite Detroit's bye.

I want the Bucs to win but I'm worried about that one. It seems like the best upset potential of the weekend.

Marcus Freeman was Paul Rudd levels of likeable during that game. I'd say I would run through a wall for him but he'd stop me from doing that and teach me tackling technique.

Jaguar Nation is apoplectic about Baalke being kept. He's got to be the worst GM in the NFL and now he gets to prolong the misery for a few more seasons.

My picks:
Mavericks by 14
Celtics by 8
Cavaliers by 3
Bucks by 9 (slam dunk)
Magic by 9 (slam dunk)
Thunder by 16 (slam dunk)
The Thunder and Cavs meeting as title favorites after the Celtics is a fun way to open the year.

Congratulations, Ic23b!
The CFL returns sometime in June, though the schedule is weirdly late in coming out for next season.

NFL Playoff Pickem Divisional Round
I think I'm still owed credit for Derrick Henry last weekend, rcade.
Done. All props and picks should now be reflected in the standings. The lead is still ic23b over Tommybiden by 1.
