- October 31, 2017
Dolphins coach Adam Gase has some harsh words for his running back group on Friday, saying that they needed to stop trying to "hit home runs all the time". He is averaging 3.4 rushing yards and has yet to see the endzone. Meanwhile, Drake had 22 yards on six carries against the same defense. According to Joyner, Ajayi has an 8.1 average when he has good blocking, better than the 7.8 league average, and had a 1.3 average on bad blocking, barely below the 1.4 league average. (more...)

Martial and Rashford have nearly been taking it in turns to start on the left flank throughout the season so far, scoring 13 goals between them and registering an impressive tally of assists. "He's got everything you'd want: composure in front of goal, great skill, pace strength", he added. Martial signed for United in 2015 for £50 million and after a relatively shaky start, looks to have established himself as a reliable player for Mourinho. (more...)

Sean Dyche does not consider Burnley an established Premier League club

But one of the gaffer's mantras when we speak after the game is that sometimes if you can't win, it's important not to lose. "We keep that clarity of thought". (more...)

Patriots to Trade Jimmy Garoppolo to San Francisco
- October 31, 2017
There was some belief that the Patriots were unwilling to trade Garoppolo because the franchise saw him as Brady's successor, though Brady, 40, has said multiple times that he intends to play multiple more years. His biggest opportunity came past year when he made two starts during Brady's suspension, finishing with 496 yards, four touchdowns and zero interceptions in that stretch. (more...)

Kante set to hand Chelsea a big lift ahead of Roma clash
- October 31, 2017
N'Golo [Kante] is nearly ready to play with us. Chelsea drew the home fixture with Roma a week ago and Conte admitted it was vital the Blues finished top of their group. After the game, Conte flat out declared that he made the wrong choice in going with the 3-5-2, though I'd posit that its problems had a lot to do with David Luiz's poor tactical play and/or in-game injury (unlike his play in the same position against Spurs, for example), some poor play from several others including, ...

National Football League trade rumors: Eagles, Jaguars interested in Calvin Johnson's rights from Lions
- October 31, 2017
Calvin has been working out, I guess, but does he really want to play? But the 32-year-old receiver may return to the field if he could suit up for another team. I think he's looking at opportunities to increase his playmakers, especially on offense. Mortensen doesn't seem to think it's likely, but there's a chance the Eagles could trade for the rights to Johnson. (more...)
