Odell Beckham Jr. Scores, Apologizes To Kicking Net
Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. boiled over and smacked a kicking net in Week 3 after Skins cornerback Josh Norman got under his skin. (The kicking net smacked back.) After scoring his first touchdown of the season tonight, Beckham made amends with the equipment by giving it a hug....

Chargers Line Up For Game-Tying Field Goal, Crap Themselves
The Chargers squandered an eight-point advantage in the second half and allowed the Raiders to claw back and take a 34-31 lead late in the fourth. No worries, however; San Diego had an opportunity to tie the game with a field goal. Surely nothing disastrous could happen on an attainable, 36-yard att...

Will Muschamp Is Bleeding For Some Reason
South Carolina’s losing to Georgia, and head coach Will Muschamp has blood on his face. It appears to be his....

The Cleveland Browns Are A Sick Joke
In the process of getting whooped by the Patriots today, the Browns cycled through three quarterbacks. It feels like every week, you hear that the Browns have hit a new low, and again, this week, the Browns hit a new low....

Colts' Jordan Todman Completely Ruins A Perfect Punt
Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee would have had the Chicago Bears pinned inside the five-yard line with his kick in the third quarter, but running back Jordan Todman, who plays on the punting unit, screwed it all up....

Rutgers Continues To Besmirch The Big Ten Name By Being Very Dreadful
Last week’s beating at the hands of Ohio State might have seemed a low point for Rutgers, which mustered just 116 yards of total offense in the 58-0 loss while ceding 669 to the Buckeyes and allowing J.T. Barrett to break the school record for touchdown passes....

Washington Gets First Punt Return Touchdown Since 2008, Misses Extra Point

University Professor Arrested For Yelling "Fuck You" At Arkansas Coach
Shortly after No. 16 Arkansas’s 49-30 loss to No. 1 Alabama was official Saturday night, a fan decided to make his displeasure with head coach Bret Bielema known—allegedly opting for shouting the simple and direct, “If I had your record, I’d be fucking fired. Fuck you.”...

Brian Kelly Deserves This
Notre Dame football is 2-4 after losing Saturday to N.C. State, 10-3. Hurricane Matthew was responsible for extremely sloppy conditions for the two teams, but the game was played, and the Fighting Irish lost, so head coach Brian Kelly called out his center, Sam Mustipher....

Tennessee's Magic Only Goes So Far
Tennessee almost followed up last week’s Hail Mary-fueled victory by overcoming a three-touchdown second-half deficit in order to defeat Texas A&M in double overtime. “Almost” is the operative word there. The Vols fell behind early and stayed that way for most of the game, hitting a low point by tra...

Navy Stuns Houston With Upset
After swapping leads with Houston throughout the first half, Navy pulled away in the last two quarters to come away with a huge upset by a score of 46-40....

Ole Miss QB Chad Kelly Involved In On-Field Brawl At His High School's Football Game [Update]
Ole Miss has a bye week this week, so their quarterback, Buffalo native Chad Kelly, took the occasion to go home for the weekend. While attending his former high school’s game, a brawl broke out and Kelly took a very active role in it, apparently after his brother took a late hit. In the video below...

NFL Memo Blames Plummeting TV Ratings On Presidential Election, Bad Matchups
This afternoon, Darren Rovell tweeted a memo sent by the NFL’s executive vice president of media Brian Rolapp and senior vice president of broadcasting Howard Katz to the league’s “media committee,” regarding the league’s cratering television ratings, primarily for primetime broadcasts. Rolapp and ...

Julio Jones's Excellence Made A Man Lose His Job

It's Almost Colin Kaepernick Time
The San Francisco 49ers are bad, and their starting quarterback, Blaine Gabbert, is also bad. Gabbert was terrible against the Cardinals last night, throwing for just 162 yards while getting picked off twice, and he’s now got six picks and five TDs to go along with a completion percentage of 58. Th...

The Only Good 49ers Highlight Tonight Was Anthony Davis Doing Rude Blaine Gabbert Tweets
The 49ers lost to the Carson Palmer-less Cardinals by 12 points tonight in front of about 50 or 60 fans. Blaine Gabbert laid an egg and threw for 162 yards, along with a pair of picks and a pair of touchdowns. The most noteworthy thing the team did on the field was knock coconuts. The best highlight...

Antoine Bethea Goes In For Big Hit, Ends Up Taking Out His Own Teammate
49ers safety Antoine Bethea got a little overzealous while going for the ball (ostensibly) on this play. Instead of getting the pick or landing a hit on Cardinals receiver J.J. Nelson, Bethea slammed teammate Tramaine Brock right in the head. Brock had just managed to break up the deep ball, and he ...
