Kenneth Gainwell (RB - PHI)

1/9/26 12:01 PM -
Steelers ‘Identified Early’ Importance Of YAC To Their Offense, Arthur Smith Says: ‘Got A Lot Of Catch-And-Run Guys’. If the Steelers have relied heavily on YAC thanks to players like Kenneth Gainwell and DK Metcalf this season, that is no accident. Both of them had career years this season in that regard, but OC Arthur Smith built that into the scheme. He knew their strength would be creating with the ball in their […]

NFL playoff predictions: who will seize a wide-open Super Bowl race?.
The postseason kicks off on Saturday. Our writers pick the dark horses, players to watch and make their tips for the NFL’s championship game
Melissa is right about the Lions (see below), but how about the Dallas Cowboys? Their defense was nauseating, and nobody wants a playoff weekend spoiled watching that. But their offense was electric.
