There’s a new wave of quarterbacks in the AFC East, but the division’s legend still remains. Tom Brady, who will be 42-years-old when next NFL season kicks off, is coming off his sixth Super Bowl victory. The New York Jets boast a promising young talent in Sam Darnold, as do the Buffalo Bills with Josh Allen. For now, Luke Falk appears to be the next Miami Dolphins quarterback following their trade of Ryan Tannehill, unless of course they draft or trade for someone else. So how do they all stack up with one another? Manish Mehta, a noted Patriots detractor who covers the Jets for the New York Daily News, ranked the AFC

Danny Ainge Won’t Be Impatient With Celtics Despite Frustrating Start To Season
The Boston Celtics’ season hasn’t gotten off to the start many envisioned them having before the campaign started. It’s obvious Brad Stevens, Marcus Smart and others are frustrated with the team’s 10-10 record, but the face of Boston’s brain trust isn’t panicking just yet. President of basketball operations Danny Ainge has been around long enough to know how the C’s are playing now isn’t permanent. There’s still plenty of time for Boston to turn its season around and live up to the wildly high expectations many had going into the 2018-19 campaign. “I’ve been through this many, many years, and I’m not impatient,” Ainge said, v...

Brewers’ Josh Hader Won’t Be Suspended, Will Undergo Sensitivity Training
Major League Baseball will not suspend Josh Hader after several old tweets resurfaced from the Milwaukee Brewers pitcher’s Twitter account during Tuesday’s All-Star Game.

Hader’s Twitter account since has been deleted and Brewers general manager David Stearns issued his own statement regarding the pitcher, saying he’s b... NESN.com
Steve Kerr’s Joke About DeMarcus Cousins Won’t Sit Well With Rest Of NBA
As the old saying goes, the rich get richer. The Golden State Warriors have embodied that notion and then some this summer. Mere weeks after winning their third NBA championship in four seasons, the Warriors somehow managed to upgrade as DeMarcus Cousins agreed to join Golden State on a one-year deal. While taking in summer league action in Las Vegas over the weekend, Warriors coach Steve Kerr couldn’t help but joke about his team adding yet another superstar. The Warriors already had an embarrassment of riches, and the addition of Cousins makes the two-time defending champions flat-out ridiculous. Then again, titles aren’t won on pap... NESN.com
Gisele Bundchen Won’t Tell Tom Brady To Retire Despite Health Concerns
Gisele Bundchen does what any good wife does — care about the health of her husband. One thing she won’t do, however, is dictate when 40-year-old Tom Brady will retire from the NFL despite any concerns she may have about him continuing to play football. Bundchen has spoken in the past about concerns she has regarding the long-term effects that football can have on the body — particularly concussions. The 37-year-old-model-turned-author told the Wall Street Journal that it’s not her decision to make when it comes to the New England Patriots quarterback calling it a career. “It’s his decision and he knows it,” Bundchen sa...
