How The Hell Do The Patriots Do It?
Bill Belichick and Josh McDaniels are rightly being universally praised for the game plan that resulted in last night’s complete ass whupping of the incompetent Texans. But the Patriots’ 3-0 start with a pair of inexperienced quarterbacks not named Tom Brady, and a total of 14 snaps with banged-up R...

Ender Inciarte Robs Yoenis Cespedes' Would-Be Walk-Off, Ends Game
Had Yoenis Cespedes hit this baseball a few inches further, it would have given the Mets a 6-4 victory over the Braves and earned them a crucial advantage on the Cardinals in the wild card race. Instead, Ender Inciarte robbed it and won the game for the Braves....

Lone Bright Spot For The Browns Injured Too
The Cleveland Browns, an alleged NFL team, are so thoroughly screwed. Part of this is by design. Part of this is because they’ve suffered a horrific stretch of injuries. RG3 (few people’s idea of a savior) hurt his shoulder, his backup hurt his shoulder, and now the team has to start a rookie next w...

USC Is Already A Mess

Report: The Browns Fired A Bunch Of Scouts Who Liked Carson Wentz
I do not know what the future holds for the careers of Jared Goff, Carson Wentz, or the buttload of draft picks the Browns received from Philadelphia for the rights to Wentz.

The Browns Wanted To Suck, And The Injury Gods Have Obliged Them
The Cleveland Browns went into this season tanking about as openly as you’ll ever see in the NFL. With the front office now controlled by Ivy Leaguers, the Browns spent the offseason stockpiling draft picks—they drafted 14 players in June, all of whom made the 53-man roster, and have another dozen-p...

It's Jacoby Brissett Time, I Guess
The New England Patriots had prepared to work around Tom Brady’s four-game suspension for the start of the season: Use Jimmy Garoppolo, err on the side of caution with anyone injured, and aim to scrape together a couple of wins. The team’s 2-0 after a 31-24 victory over the Miami Dolphins, but that ...
