On Sunday, Bills coach Rex Ryan responded to questions about not challenging a Jeremy Maclin catch that looked like an incompletion on replays with an answer that included complaints about the lack of replays on the video board at Arrowhead Stadium. Those replays would have helped Ryan on the sideline, but there’s little reason why…

As thinly veiled shots at opponents go, the latest to come back and bite Aaron Rodgers was fairly innocuous. This is the same guy who in discussing a 24-game winning home streak over the Lions said: “It’s just kind of fell our way the last 20 times or whatever but it’s always been very competitive.”…

Tony Romo’s turning 36 next offseason, and will be coming off a twice-broken collarbone that turned this into a nightmare season for him and the Cowboys. But coach Jason Garrett can easily think of the future, because he thinks Romo will be back, and better than ever. “We think Tony has a lot of football…

When the story of the 2015 NFL season is written, last night may not even be a footnote, one bad team beating another bad team in a mildly interesting fashion. But for the guys involved in the game-deciding play, it was a novel, full of redemption and reward for years pf perserverance. The Ravens won…

Just a week ago, Browns coach Mike Pettine finally got permission to publicly discipline Johnny Manziel. The team released a statement last Tuesday that said Manziel had been demoted from starter to No. 3 quarterback for Monday night’s game against the Ravens. A follow-up report said Manziel had lied to Pettine and others about the…

Pau Gasol punctuated his big block on LaMarcus Aldridge with a triumphant yell.

The Jazz made them work for it.

Browns Coach Mike Pettine told reporters after Monday night’s loss to the Ravens that quarterback Josh McCown was forced out in the fourth quarter due to a collarbone injury. Pettine said McCown will remain the team’s starting quarterback for next Sunday’s game vs. the Bengals if he is healthy enough to play, but said the…

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Cary Williams had started 81 straight games, regular and postseason combined, dating back to his time in Philadelphia and Baltimore before he was benched for Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Williams was one of seven players declared inactive for Seattle on Sunday. He was replaced in the starting lineup by Deshawn…

"There's nothing to talk about."

The Browns had lost a game in just about every way possible. Then Monday night happened. With their game against the Ravens tied at 27 and three seconds left, the Browns lined up for a 51-yard field goal try from kicker Travis Coons, who hadn’t missed a field goal all season. The kick was blocked…

University of Maryland pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue has elected to forgo his senior season and declare for the NFL Draft. The junior finished his career with 21.5 sacks and set a Maryland single season record with 13.5 sacks this season for the Terrapins. “While the last three years have been unforgettable and I would love…

Napoli are top of the table for the first time in 25 years after a famous win at the Stadio San Paolo.

Tough break for the 19-year-old.

Edmonton lost for the fourth time in five games on Monday, a 3-0 defeat in Toronto that marked the second time in a week the Oilers have been shut out. Needless to say, the head coach wasn’t happy. In a fairly blunt and harsh assessment aimed at a variety of players, Todd McLellan had some […]

Browns quarterback Josh McCown left Monday night’s game vs. the Ravens in the fourth quarter with an injury and was replaced by Austin Davis, who saw his first action with the Browns. Inside First Energy Stadium, there were chants of “Johnny, Johnny” as trainers tended to McCown. Those were for Johnny Manziel, and those fans…

Justin Gilbert’s return to the lineup for the Cleveland Browns was cut short on Monday night. Gilbert was ruled out after sustaining a concussion on a kickoff return in the third quarter.

Sunday's MLS Cup final is almost too close to call, so here's a few battles that might decide the 2015 champions.

"Obviously we need that extra save, and we didn't get it on the road."

In the run-up to the NBA Draft, there were no questions — at least publicly — about Jahlil Okafor‘s character. But of late there has been a run or incidents since then: He allegedly had a gun pulled on him outside a club in October; in November he was ticketed for driving more than 100 […]

Matt Schaub lost his starting job in Houston due to a stunning propensity to throw interceptions that were returned for touchdowns. That trait seems to have followed Schaub to Baltimore. Linebacker Karlos Dansby intercepted Schaub’s pass for Kamar Aiken and returned it 52 yards for a touchdown to give the Cleveland Browns a 20-17 lead…

That's Garret Sparks, folks, with a 3-0 win over Edmonton.

Ball don't lie.

Big night in the Big Apple.

The Ravens have been in charge, but their lead over the Browns is only 17-10 in the second quarter. After the Browns had a 14-play drive that ended in a field goal to cut their deficit to 10-3, the Ravens easily went right back down the field with a deep pass from Matt Schaub to…
