I can't be clear enough here: This. Will. Not. Happen.

Tom Brady is back. So is the explosive Patriots offense. The Browns were no match Sunday, and future opponents are on notice. The Patriots scored on the first three series of Brady’s season Sunday as he returned from a four-game Deflategate suspension. Brady threw three touchdown passes, all to tight end Martellus Bennett, and All-Pro…

The Colts weren’t particularly sharp, and they left the game even more banged up on defense than they already were. But hey, it’s a win, and when you only had one to begin with, you take it. The Colts got a fourth-down stop on the deceptively effective Brian Hoyer, beating the Bears 29-23 to improve…

The Lions handed the Eagles their first loss of the season today in Detroit, but it wasn’t easy. Despite letting the Lions jump out to a 14-0 lead in the first quarter and a 21-10 lead at halftime, the Eagles turned things around, dominated the second half and appeared set to win the game. But…

The Steelers haven’t reached their goal of scoring 30 points per game at this point in the season, but the last two weeks have shown they might be able to reach that plateau before the year is out. The Steelers grabbed the lead just before halftime on a short touchdown pass to tight end Jesse…

Titans running back DeMarco Murray had another big game, and Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota had his best game of the season. Add that to a pass rush that overwhelmed a makeshift Dolphins offensive line and Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill, and the Titans cruised to a 30-17 victory. The Titans almost doubled up the Dolphins in…

Jimmie Johnson won at Charlotte Motor Speedway for the eighth time in his Sprint Cup career.

The Flyers defenseman could be facing a lengthy suspension.

The 22-year-old has received his first call-up with the senior national team.

Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan suffered a head injury in the third quarter of Sunday’s game at Cleveland. No further details on the extent of the injury were immediately available. Hogan likely won’t return given that the Patriots hold a 30-13 lead in the fourth quarter. Hogan seemed to enjoy Tom Brady’s return to action…

If you put an average NBA offense — last season’s Detroit Pistons, for example — up against an elite European team’s offense, the Pistons would come out on top. But the reason is talent not system (with all due respect to Stan Van Gundy). Those European teams don’t have anyone like Andre Drummond, a dynamic […]

In many respects, Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. can blame only himself for the struggles arising from his inability to control his emotions. In other respects, the Giants bear plenty of blame, too. As one league source explained it to PFT, the Giants lack the locker-room leadership that would have nipped OBJ’s issues in the…

Pep Guardiola looks to continue to upgrade the Manchester City backline.

Chase drivers Chase Elliott and Austin Dillon get spun on a restart on Lap 258 at Charlotte.

Patriots rookie cornerback Cyrus Jones was ejected from Sunday’s game at Cleveland in the third quarter for throwing punches in what otherwise appeared to be a post-play shoving match. The Browns haven’t really punched back since the first quarter. Martellus Bennett’s third touchdown catch of the day on the first drive of the third quarter…

The Dallas Stars still have some decisions to make with 27 players on their training camp roster, but they got some work done on Sunday. To the AHL: Julius Honka and Gemel Smith Released from PTO: Justin Fontaine (pictured) One cannot help but wonder if someone might take another look at Fontaine. He’s only 28 and […]

The Ravens opened Sunday’s game with the Redskins with a makeshift left side of the offensive line due to left tackle Ronnie Stanley’s absence. They opened the second half with a makeshift group on the right side as well. Right tackle Rick Wagner hurt his thigh on the final play of the first half when…

Both the Bills and Rams will be missing key defensive linemen in Sunday’s game. The difference is that the Bills have a lot more experience playing without defensive tackle Marcell Dareus this season. Dareus, who was suspended for the first four games, is inactive due to a hamstring injury suffered on Friday. The Rams are…

Kevin Harvick started on the pole at Charlotte but will leave facing a Chase deficit after an electrical issue.

The Browns are officially on their fourth quarterback of the season. The team announced that rookie quarterback Cody Kessler is out for the rest of Sunday’s game vs. the Patriots with rib and chest injuries. Kessler was injured when he took a big hit from Patriots linebacker Dont’a Hightower in the first quarter. The play…

The Broncos were selling the notion that quarterback Trevor Siemian could have come in last week to be their emergency quarterback, even after the injury to his non-throwing shoulder. He won’t be able to do that today, as he isn’t in uniform. Siemian leads the Broncos list of inactives for today’s game against the Falcons,…
