Late in the fourth quarter against the Falcons, Cam Newton and the Panthers were driving, down two, when Newton hit his rookie wideout Kelvin Benjamin for a 17-yard gain, taking Carolina down to the Atlanta 32, within field goal range. It represented the biggest gain in WPA for the week—28 percentag...
Jonas Gray Is King For A Night
Here is a stat-quirk that doesn’t seem remotely possible, but it absolutely true: Jonas Gray had as many rushing touchdowns last night as the entire rest of the NFL had in Week 11 combined....
Gronk Ruins Sergio Brown's Life, Takes Penalty
Rob Gronkowski does not like Sergio Brown, even though the Colts safety used to play for New England. Back in 2012, Brown was the one who caused Gronkowski to break his arm on a point-after attempt. (Gronkowski shouldn't have been in the game that late anyway, but he's not going to be mad at his own...
Odell Beckham Jr. Makes Circus Catch, But All For Naught

Rangers Beat Penguins In A Shootout, Then Don't

Jaroslav Halak Makes Stupendous Back-Of-Head Save
It can be hard to remember sometimes that, despite looking like overweight babies swaddled in three too many layers, hockey goalies are amazing athletes with great hand-eye coordination and reflexes. Islander goalie Jaroslav Halak displayed all that—and a healthy dose of luck—when saving this Aleksa...
Knicks Lose Despite Carmelo's Clutch Three With Seconds Remaining
Carmelo Anthony hit a clutch, tying three-pointer with two seconds remaining in the Knicks' game tonight in New York against the Jazz. The Knicks still lost, in regulation, thanks to Trey Burke's buzzer-beater....
Rex Ryan Fined $100,000 For Yelling "Fuck You"
As time expired on Sunday and the Jets snapped their eight-game losing streak, Rex Ryan let loose with some hearty and satisfying profanity. It'll cost him $100,000, per Chris Mortensen....

Monty Williams Was There For Ryan Anderson After Girlfriend's Suicide
Sports Illustrated's Chris Ballard has a devastating piece on Pelicans forward Ryan Anderson, who in August 2013 was the one to discover his girlfriend Gia Allemand in her New Orleans home, hanging by her neck from a vacuum-cleaner cord. It is a hard, hard read, but there is goodness here—much of ...

J.R. Smith Ends Game With A Very J.R. Smith Shot
The Knicks lost 97-95 to the Orlando Magic last night, and this here was the final play of the game. I'm not going to assume that this isn't the play Derek Fisher drew up, but Carmelo Anthony's frantic calling for the ball would seem to indicate that J.R. pulling up from three was not exactly what...
