Things looked bleak for three quarters in front of one of the best Scott Stadium atmospheres of the Tony Elliott era, but the Virginia Cavaliers found a way down the stretch to improve to 6-1 on the year with a 22-20 win over the Washington State Cougars. In a game that featured a sluggish offense, […]
The Padres’ managerial search has reached the interview stage, as The Athletic’s Dennis Lin reports that the club spoke with bench coach Brian Esposito on Monday. The 46-year-old Esposito is the first candidate known to have an interview in the books with the Padres, though the team may have already sat down with other internal…
The Buffalo Sabres are 2-4-0 on the season and it isn't the way they wanted to kick things off with a clean slate. The struggles are good for nobody within the organization, and there's becoming less of a chance that the better players want to stick around and figure it out. With that being said, David Pagnotta reported, "They do have assets. (Rasmus) Dahlin, they're not moving, (Tage) Thompson, they're not moving. Owen Power is not happy. He hasn't been happy since he almost got there." Dahli...
The NY Jets starting the season with an 0-7 record has caused fans to question the quarterback, head coach, and owner.

It was not a pretty offensive showing for the New York Jets in Week 7 against the Carolina Panthers. For a second consecutive game, the Jets failed to reach the end zone. Things got so bad that the team made a quarterback change at halftime, benching Justin Fields. Anybody who watched the game could see […]
This was one of the best games of Jalen Hurts’ career. Against the Minnesota Vikings, Hurts finished with a perfect passer rating (158.3), completing 19 of 23 passes for 326 yards and three touchdowns. The ball placement, timing, command, and confidence were all elite. This Philadelphia Eagles performance was a weird one to break down. […]

Liverpool’s return to Champions League action on Wednesday sees them take on Eintracht Frankfurt, a rather unique opponent for the Reds. The two sides have only previously met in the early stages of the 1972-73 UEFA Cup, with the Reds shading that meeting 2-0 over two legs. For Eintracht manager Dino Toppmoller, though, not everything […]
The Edmonton Oilers aren’t pastry chefs. They need to significantly reduce their turnovers. The Oilers have committed the fourth most turnovers/60 (17.92) through their first six games. Turnoveritis has spread throughout the lineup, and combined with too many errant and missed passes, it is easy to see why they’ve lost three consecutive games and have…
Welcome back for another round of fantasy football ramblings. This week, the Byepocalypse, and looking down the road at the playoffs.

On Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs opened a can of something-or-other on the Las Vegas Raiders, escorting them off GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium after a 31-0 beatdown. Here are three things that occur to me after reflecting on Sunday’s game. 1. Stone Forsyth didn’t cause Omarr Norman-Lott’s injury No matter what I think about […]
Last week, after beating the Jacksonville Jaguars, the national media began looking at the Seattle Seahawks as a legitimate playoff team, and perhaps even a Super Bowl contender. However, how will this change after the Seahawks stout victory over the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football? Well, this week, despite the win, the national media […]
It wasn’t always pretty (particularly in the first half), but the Green Bay Packers pulled out an ugly victory over the Arizona Cardinals in week 7 to get to a 4-1-1 record. As we do every week, we’re taking a look at the performance of the passing game. So let’s stop talking about it and […]
The SEC begins the 2025-26 women’s college basketball season with three teams ranked in the top five, five in the top 10 and eight in the top 25. In this era of power conferences, the SEC is THE power conference. And yet, being the best conference doesn’t necessarily mean being the most-competitive conference. For all […]
The bye week comes with mixed feelings. On one hand, Jacksonville is 4-3 with the toughest part of its schedule out of the way. On the other hand, there’s been a lot of uninspiring football over the past two games. The Jaguars got bullied in consecutive weeks. “We cannot, absolutely not, go back and try […]

Waiver Wire Week 8 Week 7 delivered another wave of chaos. Mike Evans broke his collarbone and will miss most of the season. Puka Nacua sat out with an ankle injury, Nico Collins suffered a concussion, and Jayden Daniels exited with a hamstring strain.
