Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh didn’t care if you criticized him for his decision to go for two on Sunday. He knows it was the right call, and he’ll try to explain it to you.  For most of NFL history, the common approach for coaches was to keep a game alive. You’d see plenty of suboptimal decisions made in the name of not practically ending the game, but staying within a possession or two.

Either Kyrie Irving, the Nets organization or the entire city of New York will have to budge for the 29-year-old seven-time All-Star to play for a team that would be a heavy favorite to win a championship with him on it.

Tom Brady may seem like an age-defying super human, but Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians knows his 44-year-old quarterback isn’t actually Captain America. He’s a mortal who needs to remember that his body doesn’t bounce back like it used to.  Which is why Arians was less than thrilled with this play from Brady during the Bucs’ 33-27 overtime win against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. Brady’s never been much of a rushing quarterback, but he put his body on the line to get a first… Source link

While this has unfolded among these household name tech giants, Kostin points to narrowing… Source link

The New England Patriots are being praised as perhaps the NFL’s best team after a seven-game winning streak.  Yet, they’re not even favored to win this week at a 7-6 Indianapolis Colts team. Seeing the Patriots as an underdog at the Colts is a surprise, though the Colts are probably better than their record. They’re a well-coached team that is good on both sides of the ball, like the Patriots.  Here’s a first look at the Week 15 lines in the NFL, with the spreads from BetMGM:  Week 15 starts… Source link
