Share this: Tom Brady and Peyton Manning battled on the field for more than a decade, but despite the rivalry, the two remain close friends. In his weekly Monday night interview with Jim Gray on Westwood One Radio, Brady explained how the two legendary quarterbacks are able to put their on-the-field history aside and maintain a friendship. “He wanted to beat the heck out of me as Tom Brady the football player and that’s very different as Tom Brady the person,” Brady told Gray. “When you’re wearing that opposing jersey, it’s just the way it goes. But postgame, and when you’re not wearing that jersey, it’s a whole different set of circumstances. It’s nice to have someone that can relate to a lot of similar

Did NBC’s Camera Wire Cost Raiders Potential Big Play Late In Game Vs. Chiefs?
Share this: Derek Carr and the Oakland Raiders didn’t play a very good football game Thursday night, especially on the offensive side of the ball. But upon further review, it appears they may also had a little bit of tough luck. The Raiders lost a pivotal AFC West matchup to the Chiefs 21-13 in what was one of the worst games of Carr’s career. The Oakland QB somehow threw for just 117 passing yards on 41 passing attempts, which seems almost impossible. However, it could have been at least a few more yards and one more completion had it not been for a wire. Replays certainly seem to support a theory that a fourth-quarter pass intended for Amari Cooper actually hit the camera
Emotional Luke Kuechly Carted Off Field After Suffering Scary-Looking Injury
The Carolina Panthers beat the New Orleans Saints on “Thursday Night Football” 23-20, but that was the last thing on everyone’s minds afterward. Panthers superstar linebacker Luke Kuechly was carted off the field with under five minutes remaining in the game and was evaluated for a concussion after suffering a horrific-looking injury. It appeared as though Saints running back Tim Hightower inadvertently hit Kuechly in the head with his own helmet as he was being tackled. Kuechly visibly was gasping for air when the cameras zoomed in on his face after the injury, and he appeared to be very emotional. Thumbnail photo via Jerem... NESN.com
Dion Lewis Will Eventually Bring Unpredictability Back To Patriots’ Offense
Share this: It’s unclear why the New England Patriots activated Dion Lewis off the physically unable to perform list just to make him inactive in Week 10, but it was the right decision. Regular season loss or not, the New England Patriots need to keep Lewis healthy for the postseason. Lewis has played just 31 of a possible 89 games since being selected in the fifth round of the 2011 NFL Draft, and his health probably is even more vulnerable as he’s months removed from multiple knee surgeries. Even when Lewis finally is active for a game, it seems unlikely he’ll receive a full workload. It’s much more likely that will come playoff time, despite head coach Bill Belichick implying Lewis might not pass James White

Bills’ First Half Ends In Disaster With Ridiculous Final Sequence Vs. Seahawks
Share this: UPDATE (12:05 a.m. ET): The crazy ending to the first half ended up costing the Buffalo Bills. The Bills could have made a field goal at the end of the half Monday night, but a controversial no-call on Richard Sherman and a delay of game resulted in an ugly kick from Dan Carpenter. That proved especially costly because the Bills had the ball in the red zone in the final minute down by six points. They ultimately couldn’t find the end zone, but they wouldn’t have needed to if they got the field goal earlier. So the Seattle Seahawks dodged a bullet to win 31-25. Will the same happen Sunday night against the New England Patriots? ORIGINAL STORY: Even when we finally get
Magical thinking: European football superstitions
Pre-match preparationKolo Touré always had to be the last player onto the pitch during his time at Arsenal – a situation which caused him trouble during a 2009 UEFA Champions League match against Roma. With team-mate William Gallas's half-time treatment for an injury delayed, Touré felt unable to re-enter the field until Gallas emerged, and the game resumed without either player. The Ivorian ended up being booked for rejoining the fray without the referee's permission.Czech Republic captain Tomáš Rosický never sang the national anthem aloud, having realised while playing for his country ...
