Denver Broncos make it hurt for Brock Osweiler in return
- November 07, 2016
Osweiler famously declared upon signing his $72 million, four-year deal that he chose Houston over Denver because the Texans gave him the better chance to succeed. They've at least figured out that their actual smart free-agent pickup, running back Lamar Miller , is the key to their offense, and when needed, Alfred Blue can be good enough, too - when he's not losing a game-changing fumble in Denver .

Chelsea's Antonio Conte highlights fantastic trio: Confidence was key amid improvement
- November 07, 2016
Boro's Martin de Roon headed home powerfully in the 91st minute after City dominated the game, having 19 shots in the first half alone. After being crowned the best player in the Premier League in 2015, Hazard appeared to lose his way under former boss Jose Mourinho, faced accusations of being unfit, and had to wait until April to register his first league strike.

The Philadelphia Eagles Expose The Vikings
- November 07, 2016
Protection was a serious issue, as one would expect when the hit and sack numbers are so high. Defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz prefers to let his front four bring the pressure, but it hadn't worked the last two weeks, and now they were facing Sam Bradford, who was familiar with the scheme.

Keitany, the second-fastest woman in history with a time of 2 hours 18min 37sec in London in 2012, claimed she is fully focused on winning in New York City after being overlooked for selection at Rio 2016.

Ruth's Chris Sizzling Stats: 5 numbers that determined Ravens-Steelers
- November 07, 2016
For the first time in franchise history, the Ravens have won four straight games against Pittsburgh , including six of the last seven meetings and the last four played in Baltimore . "I have to tackle him", said Mitchell. It's not insane to think they might be looking up at two division foes in the standings come a week from now, and that's a sentence I never could have imagined writing last month. (more...)

TRANSCRIPTION: Cam Newton Wonders Where the Flags Are
- November 07, 2016
That's what he has been all season. It's not fun. It's really taken the fun out of the game for me, honestly. It isn't like the Panthers' quarterback has come out every single week to complain about the treatment he has taken. Furthermore, Goodell is expected to speak directly to Newton about the issue. On the one hand, player safety is priority No. 1, but on the other, a guy who colors outside the lines with a celebration can be fined more than someone who unloads a risky hit. (more...)

- November 07, 2016
But he's been healthy in recent weeks and didn't downplay his struggles Sunday or try to qualify them. Down 14-0, the Eagles didn't go away. "I can't say that 100 percent", he said. They gained some momentum with a 10-play, 59-yard scoring drive that made it 14-3. He passed Vinny Testaverde, who had 46,233 yards through the air. "That's definitely not the outcome we wanted", Treggs said. (more...)

Redskins' Reed, Norman cleared to travel to London
- November 07, 2016
Each would be a critical piece to have available against the Bengals as the 4-3 Redskins try to keep pace in the crowded NFC East. A huge game before the bye week. "A lot of different formations, lot of different route combinations and so forth". With All-Pro corner Josh Norman's status in doubt for Sunday with a concussion, the 5-11, 197-pound third-year corner picked in the fourth round out of Clemson comes into sharper focus. (more...)

With the outcome of the game in no doubt, many of Clemson's backups got some playing time. (more...)

Verstappen: Mexican GP will be interesting
- November 07, 2016
The triple-world champion explained he had suffered from a glazed front right brake on the formation lap, which he said played a significant factor at the start. Rosberg had been only sixth fastest in phase one and fifth in the second. Messrs Verstappen and Rosberg made contact behind him, with the Dutch driver trying to find a way through on the inside from 3rd place on the grid, but race stewards chose to take no further action.

At least until the fourth quarter, when it began to feel a lot like past year. "I like the second part better than the first, but he's a great competitor and he never loses his poise". In its first six drives, Alabama's average field position was its own 13-yard line . But when you're going against a defense like Alabama's, even that's not enough. (more...)
