And then there were three. Four weeks into the NFL season, three undefeated teams remain: the Kansas City Chiefs, the San Francisco 49ers and the Minnesota Vikings, who are among this year's biggest surprises. Week 4 was another barn burner, with nine one-score games heading into Monday’s contest between the Atlanta Falcons and the New Orleans Saints. The comeback kids, the Denver Broncos, could not overcome an 11-point, second-half deficit, […]

Week 4 brought another round of records, led by stars putting up career-best performances and teams finding improbable ways to win. Kenneth Walker III continued his historic start, while CeeDee Lamb set a career high in catches and Puka Nacua climbed past Randy Moss. Patrick Mahomes keeps chasing Tom Brady while Dak Prescott added their names alongside franchise legends, and Jonathan Taylor made history overseas. Elsewhere, the 49ers proved age […]

If you're a fan of offensive battles, then you must have enjoyed Sunday night's Detroit Lions-Carolina Panthers game. The Panthers improved to 2-2 thanks to a dominant performance from wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan, defeating the Lions 32-26. Both offenses logged over 440 yards in a matchup that felt like no one could be stopped by the time the fourth quarter rolled around. However, Carolina was able to make a pair […]

Sunday's National League Division Series Game 2s delivered the kind of October drama that leaves fans at home staring at the screen in disbelief. In Milwaukee, the Brewers were down to their final strike when Jackson Chourio lined a two-run single off Mason Miller for a 4-3 walk-off win, their second comeback against the Padres in 20 hours and a 2-0 series lead. Hours later in Los Angeles, the Braves […]

DODGER STADIUM (Los Angeles) – With Chris Sale unavailable, and with the Braves needing two bullpen games to get through the first two games of the National League Division Series on the road against two Cy Young Award winners, they still found a way to return to Atlanta with the series tied at one game apiece. Dodgers deadline addition Tarik Skubal came "as advertised" in Game 1, but Blake Snell couldn’t […]

The Braves took a big gamble with their pitching plan on Sunday night at Dodger Stadium. The plan paid off. Chris Sale started Game 1 of the Braves' wild-card series last Tuesday against the Phillies. He then appeared in Game 3 two days later, which the Braves considered to be his bullpen day. So, Sale would have had a full four days of rest ahead of Sunday night's Game 2 […]

LINCOLN FINANCIAL FIELD (Philadelphia) — The Los Angeles Rams’ dream season was on the verge of becoming a full-fledged nightmare. For three-plus quarters on Sunday, they looked much like they had for most of the first three games: an overrated mess. But then they reminded everyone why the world was so high on them in the first place. When they’re clicking on all cylinders, they (still) are capable of being […]

Sometimes, one player can swing the outcome of a game. When you score the go-ahead touchdown with just over a minute left to erase a double-digit deficit on the road, you're pretty much guaranteed to win not only the game, but Tom Brady's LFG Player of the Game, as was the case for Kyren Williams on Sunday. The Los Angeles Rams running back rushed 16 times for 80 yards and […]

Levi's Stadium (Santa Clara, California) — Brock Purdy is playing at an MVP level through the first quarter of the season, but in a 24-14 victory over the visiting Denver Broncos, the defense carried the day for the San Francisco 49ers. San Francisco improved to 4-0 on the year with the win and is one of three undefeated teams left in the league. The 49ers face the Super Bowl defending […]
