Share this: UPDATE (12:35 p.m.): The reporter, Dave Brown of the Concord Monitor, reached out to clarify his intentions. Brown said his intention was to seek out real answers. Brown was quoted by Forbes in August as saying, “To use a football analogy, Bill Walsh respected Buddy Ryan’s 46 defense, but had to figure out a way to get around it. So for the last eight years, I’ve been thinking: ‘Is there a way to get (Belichick) off his game plan?’” Brown clarified that answer by saying, “Yeah, his game plan to avoid answering my questions. I’m not going pretend his illogical answer was logical.” ORIGINAL STORY: FOXBORO, Mass. — A reporter went out of his way to get Bill Belichick’s goat Tuesday and accomplished

Stop What You’re Doing And Watch Ohio State’s Noah Brown Make All-Time Great Cat…
Share this: If you aren’t watching the Ohio State-Oklahoma game, you missed one of the best college football plays you’ll ever see. The Buckeyes’ Noah Brown went up to catch a 21-yard touchdown pass with six seconds remaining in the first half, but Sooners defensive back Michiah Quick was all over him and prevented Brown from seeing the ball come his way. But Brown somehow still made an incredible circus catch off Quick’s back, giving his team a 35-17 lead at the half. Oh. My. Goodness. It’s probably safe to say we’ll see that TD reception a few more times the rest of the season — and beyond. Thumbnail photo via Kevin Jairaj/USA TODAY Sports Images More Stories Source link

Fantasy football owners probably yelled “not again!” when they saw San Diego Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen leave Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs with a knee injury.

Here are five receivers for Allen owners to target via the waiver the wire and/or trade market to replace him. Travis Benjamin, San Diego ChargersBenjamin signed a rich free-agent contract with the Chargers in the offseason, and he’s now going to be th... NESN.com
Central Michigan’s Incredible Game-Winning Hail Mary Shouldn’t Have Counted
Share this: First things first: Central Michigan’s Hail Mary at the end of its game against Oklahoma State on Saturday was one of the craziest plays you’ll ever see. The Chippewas trailed the Cowboys 27-24 with literally no time left on the clock and needed a touchdown from their own 49-yard line. And when receiver Jesse Kroll caught quarterback Cooper Rush’s desperation heave 12 yards short of the goal line, it looked like the game was over. But then the improbable happened. Kroll somehow lateraled the ball to teammate Corey Willis as he fell to the ground, allowing Willis to sprint in for the touchdown to give Central Michigan an incredible 30-27 walk-off win. If you’re wondering how the Chippewas got an untimed down, however,

Fantasy Football 2016: 10 Veteran Players Who’ll Go From Star To Bust
Share this: Every fantasy football owner feels like a superstar general manager on draft day, and if there’s one thing GMs love, it’s big-name players. We’re here to remind you that a few of them — especially the established older ones — might not actually be very good draft choices. Of course, predicting fantasy success or failure is an inexact science. For example, last year I wrote that Cam Newton, Brandon Marshall and Doug Martin should be on this list. Sixty-five touchdowns, three All-Pro teams, three Pro Bowl selections, an Offensive Player of the Year award and an MVP later, it’s safe to say I was wrong on a few of my picks. Alas, we try again. Here are 10 veterans whose fantasy stardom
