In his 132nd NFL game over 11 seasons, safety Jimmie Ward of the Houston Texans achieved something he hadn’t done in the previous 131: he didn’t score a touchdown. With four seconds remaining in Sunday’s third quarter, the former Davidson High School standout intercepted Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis and returned it 65 yards for a touchdown, giving the Texans a one-point lead. Houston, however, succumbed to the Titans 32-27 after failing to maintain its lead in the last period. Ward had 66 interception-return yards going into Sunday’s game, but he has now returned three of his ten career interceptions…
Diese Woche trifft Bayern München in einem spannenden Champions-League-Spiel auf Paris Saint-Germain. Auch wenn beide Mannschaften zweifellos den Hauptpreis des europäischen Vereinsspiels gewinnen wollten, lief es bisher nicht wie geplant. PSG hat in der neuen Liga-Phase nur einmal gewonnen, während die Bayern bereits zwei Niederlagen einstecken mussten. Da nun beide Teams ihre Heimwettbewerbe anführen, verlagert sich der Fokus auf den Versuch, in Europa Fuß zu fassen. Würde keiner von beiden die K.-o.-Runde erreichen, wäre das für beide katastrophal. Datum, Anstoßzeit und Veranstaltungsort Der Anstoß für das Spiel Bayern München gegen Paris Saint-Germain ist am Dienstag, 26. November 2024, um 20:00…

On Sunday, a lot of individuals had a good time in South Florida. There was a pleasant, mild breeze and low humidity when the sun was out. The day was perfect for being outside. Except if you were a Patriot. Jerod Mayo’s club had their poorest performance of the season in this Week 12 game. This afternoon’s game soon got out of control in the first quarter, and the Patriots appeared to be undercoached and outmatched. The Patriots’ offensive tackles played some of their worst football of the season, and they committed far too many penalties. The Patriots’ defence had…
Patrick Mahomes, the quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, was fined over $14,000 for making what the NFL considered a “violent gesture” during a game against the Buffalo Bills last week. Online videos and images seem to show the Super Bowl champion raising his hands in what appears to be a gun or rifle shooting motion during the game’s fourth quarter on November 17. The Bills prevailed 30–21. Since the gesture was deemed “unsportsmanlike conduct,” the NFL penalised Mahomes $14,069 for it. The football league declined to provide any additional commentary on the ruling. “The NFL and NFL Players Association…
With the team’s third defeat, a 24-3 setback to unranked Oklahoma, Kalen DeBoer’s first season at Alabama came to a sad end and effectively eliminated them from the College Football Playoffs. This year’s performance marks the first time Alabama has suffered three regular-season defeats since 2010, and the team has already experienced historic lows, including a devastating loss to Vanderbilt. They are currently 9-3. DeBoer has important choices to make, especially in selecting a replacement quarterback because Jalen Milroe is probably leaving for the NFL and evaluating the coaching staff after a year of inconsistent play. The Florida defence held…
