Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs are taking a road trip this weekend to Met Life Stadium to face the New York Jets on Sunday Night Football. You know who else is heading to Met Life this weekend? Taylor Swift.

The pop sensation caused a sensation when she showed up at Arrowhead Stadium last Sunday to watch rumored beau Kelce play. In what has become one of the biggest moments in the 2023 NFL season, Swift rocked a Chiefs windbreaker, cheered with Kelce's mom Donna and left the stadium in Kelce's convertible for all the world (literally, no exaggeration) to see. 

Since then, the Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce rumor mill has gone full speed. The Chiefs have an entirely new fan base (might we call it the Taylor Swift era in Kansas City?) and Swifties have launched Kelce's No. 87 jersey into best selling territory.

If you're wondering why more people are talking about Taylor Swift than the game, it's because there is no bigger game in town than Taylor Swift. Where she goes, millions follow. And where she's going this Sunday is to Met Life Stadium. We'll be there (virtually), friendship bracelets and all.

Watch local NFL football live with a digital HDTV antenna

Amazon

If you're cutting the cord to your cable company, you're not alone; in fact, you are in luck. You can still watch the NFL on TV with an affordable indoor antenna, which pulls in local over-the-air HDYC channels such as CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox and PBS.  Here's the kicker: There's no monthly charge.

Anyone living in partially blocked-off area (those near mountains or first-floor apartments), a digital TV antenna may not pick up a good signal – or any signal at all. But for many homes, a digital TV antenna provides a seriously inexpensive way to watch college football without paying a staggering monthly fee.  Indoor TV antennas can also provide some much-needed TV backup if a storm knocks out your cable (or your cable company gets in a squabble with a network).

This amplified HDTV antenna, claims to have a 50-mile range and offers 36 channels. It's rated 4.0 stars by Amazon reviewers.

Said one Amazon customer, "When the price of this antenna dropped to $50, it was competitively priced with what you would find on the shelves at your local Radio Shack. If you're considering this product, you're probably already questioning your cable television bill and are looking around for a cheap way to get the Big 3 plus Fox and PBS. This antenna delivered that for us right out of the box."

Is this finally Dak Prescott's time to shine? The Cowboys are off to a splashy 2023 season start, 2-1 coming into Week 4. QB Dak Prescott has thrown just one pick to date, a huge improvement over last season where he led the league in interceptions thrown (Ouch). Three games in, the Cowboys are primed to re-earn the title "America's Team".  But ever since America's Sweetheart Taylor Swift paid a visit to Arrowhead Stadium to visit rumored beau Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs may have taken the title.

Lamar Jackson/OBJ in Baltimore:  The Baltimore Ravens went through a series of staff and player changes during the offseason, designed to further QB Lamar Jackson's development in Baltimore. With a new coordinator a leveled-up offense, including the addition of Odell Beckham Jr., the Ravens are 2-1 this season. The tightened offense has the league on notice.

Is there life after Aaron Rodgers in New York? Four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers' New York Jets debut didn't last long before Rodgers was down with a torn ACL. Jets backup QB Zach Wilson took over. Despite a rocky start, Wilson settled in and led the Jets to an OT win. Sadly, the Jets haven't won since and Wilson looks shaky, at best. Head coach Robert Saleh assures the team is primed to go all the way with or without Rodgers, but the same team went 7-10 in 2022, which doesn't bode well this season.

That 49ers defense is dangerous: Brock Purdy silenced naysayers last season when he took over after both QBs Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo suffered season-ending injuries. Coach Shanahan traded Lance and gave Purdy the starting job this season with little trepidation that the last pick of the 2022 NFL Draft had what it takes. Shanahan's decision has paid off.  Three weeks in, the Niners, Philadelphia Eagles and Miami Dolphins are the only NFL teams who remain undefeated. Week after week, the Niners look unstoppable, and quite frankly, terrifying to face.
