EXPLAINING END OF HALF SCENARIO With just 21 seconds left in the second quarter, the Lions were driving at the Chicago 33-yard line. They faced a 1st & 10. Goff lofted a pass down the right sideline that rookie wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa made a diving one-hand grab on. After initially being ruled out of bounds on the play and …

Brian Kelly walked into his postgame press conference after LSU beat Florida a little fired up. After an opening statement, a question was asked about the Tigers’ offensive performance.

Somehow, an 11-point third-quarter lead became a 10-point deficit late in the fourth. And by the time the Bears took the field for their final possession — trailing 27-24 and 80 yards …

Friday’s game against Houston represented a chance for Ryan Staub to cement himself as the starting quarterback in Colorado. Instead, he sent the Buffaloes back to the drawing board.

WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Instant reactions as Connelly Early’s phenomenal major league debut helps the Red Sox shut out the Athletics for the second straight night, this time by a 6-0 score at Sutter Health Park: 1) Early’s debut exceeded even the highest of expectations in his first big league game. He was dominant from the start, when he punctuated …

The issues for the Pats pass defense came when their blitzes didn’t get home, or Smith bought just enough time for receivers to uncover. Above, New England rushes six with man coverage behind it (man-free). With only deep post-safety help, Hawkins is left 1-on-1 with Bowers in space, and the Raiders tight end wins easily on a slant for a …

Lions quarterback Jared Goff was not happy with the play of the offense in Sunday’s 27-13 loss to the Packers. “Not even close to good enough,” Goff said. “Not even remotely close.” The Lions had a 16-play, 78-yard drive that ended with a 30-yard field goal, and a nine-play, 59-yard drive that ended with a 27-yard field goal.
