The Chicago Fire and New England Revolution meet Saturday night in Bridgeview, Ill., in a match that could heavily impact the Eastern Conference playoff race. Both sides currently sit just outside the playoff line, and with two meetings in the final six weeks, head-to-head results may ultimately decide their postseason fate. Chicago (11-10-6, 39 points) holds 10th place, only one point behind the New York Red Bulls with two games in hand. New England (8-13-7, 31 points) sits further back but still has a realistic path to climb the table. The Revolution endured a nine-match winless skid earlier this summer but steadied themselves with a 2-0-2 run in August before falling 2-1 to Charlotte last week on a late goal.

The Miami Dolphins are aiming to bounce back from an 8-9 season that ended without a playoff berth. After two straight trips to the AFC wild card round in 2022 and 2023, Miami is hoping for a return to form when it meets the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.

Now 41 years old, Rodgers opens a new chapter with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the twist is that his first opponent of 2025 is the Jets in East Rutherford. Rodgers, a four-time MVP and future Hall of Famer, is focused on proving that his second fresh start can work out better than his last. After the Steelers’ failed experiment with Russell Wilson last season, head coach Mike Tomlin is betting that Rodgers’ leadership and experience can help Pittsburgh snap its streak of six straight postseason losses dating back to 2016.

The Washington Commanders will kick off their season at home on Sunday against the New York Giants with expectations higher than they have been in decades. After rolling to a 12-5 record behind rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels and reaching the NFC Championship Game, Washington is no longer a surprise. Coach Dan Quinn made it clear he expects his team to continue climbing rather than simply repeat last year’s accomplishments. Daniels delivered a breakout season, throwing for 3,568 yards with 25 touchdowns and nine interceptions, while also adding 891 rushing yards and six scores. His ability to extend plays and thrive in the RPO game makes him one of the toughest quarterbacks to defend in the league. For more insights on
