- Super Bowl LVIII is scheduled for Feb. 11, 2024 in Las Vegas.
The season of Taylor Swift: Pop princess Taylor Swift's very public romance with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce made being a WAG (wives and girlfriends of athletes) cool again. Not since supermodel Gisele Bündchen first starting dating former husband Tom Brady has an athlete's partner garnered so much attention. But with Olympian Simone Biles in the stands (her husband Jonathan Owens plays for the Green Bay Packers) and Bills QB Josh Allen dating Pitch Perfect actress Hailee Steinfeld, what's happening in the stands this season is getting as much as attention as the game on the field. Swift's Eras Tour has finished its 2023 dates and Swift is rumored to be hanging out in Kansas City for the next few weeks, which means fans can expect to see a lot more of Taylor high-fiving Brittney Mahomes and hanging with Mama Kelce in the stands at Arrowhead.
Is this the Cowboys year? If you are a Dallas Cowboys fan, every year is "the" year (the one where the team goes all the way to the Super Bowl), but this year the 8-3 Cowboys actually have a shot. At the end of the 2022 season, quarterback Dak Prescott promised to throw less turnovers (he led the league with 15). As of today's writing, Dak managed his interceptions to just six. With superstars like Brandin Cooks and Micah Parsons on the field, the Cowboys have never looked better. They're two games behind the Philadelphia Eagles for the top spot in the NFC East with the toughest part of their season ahead. The Cowboys likely won't knock the 10-1 Eagles off their perch, but are on track to secure the top Wild Card spot and a ticket to the postseason.
Good morning, Baltimore. Many hours of NFL sports broadcasts over recent years has been dedicated to arguing the talents (or lack thereof) of Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson. Lamar has always been a dynamic scrambler out of the pocket and this season is no different with Jackson scoring 574 rushing yards, the top for QBs in the NFL. Over halfway through the 2023 NFL, Lamar is poised to have the best season of his career. The Ravens are 9-3 coming into Week 13 and MVP chants follow Lamar (again) at every turn. The Ravens might not get the hype of the Chiefs or Eagles, but they're establishing themselves a Super Bowl contender and Lamar is already make a case to turn those chants into reality
