Todd Gurley scores touchdown after second hurdle of the day
- September 18, 2017
But this victory was earned with smash-mouth running. This was billed a showdown between McVay and his former boss, Redskins coach Jay Gruden. On the second possession of the game, Gruden called six straight run plays. But no other 49er on offense was a threat, unlike a San Francisco "D" that hit Wilson 10 times (three sacks) and had its way with the Seahawks offensive line. (more...)

Truex opens playoffs with Chicagoland win
- September 18, 2017
I mean, it sucks, but we're a top-five truck and we're missing the playoffs. The Wood Brothers team is running the best it has in years and there is no reason for that not to continue. The 2016 Daytona 500 victor should have at least one or two championships by now and is running out of time at JGR to get one. Busch's pit crew was swapped for teammate Daniel Suarez's crew for the start of the playoffs. (more...)

Kevin Love Is Staying In Cleveland
- September 18, 2017
Love is under contract with the Cavaliers for three more years. But with Kyrie Irving in Boston, and nobody wanting to take Love off their hands, it looks like keeping him is the Cavs' best option. Rather than being the team's afterthought, Kevin Love is now one Cleveland's most vital players. "He's going to get those elbow touches again", said Lue recently. (more...)

Carolina Panthers TE Greg Olsen injured, using crutches on sideline
- September 18, 2017
Following Carolina's 9-3 win, Olsen confirmed he suffered a broken foot. But the Panthers (2-0) never found the end zone, despite twice reaching the red zone. Bills DT Marcell Dareus left the game briefly with an ankle injury but did return.

Verstappen blames Vettel for first-lap collision
- September 18, 2017
Raikkonen surged ahead of Verstappen. This time it wasn't engine failure, like on several occasions this season, but Vettel causing a first-lap crash that was easily avoidable. Those are my conditions. Vettel, who was on the outside and moved over to cover the inside line as Verstappen and Raikkonen approached on his left, said it was not clear what had happened. (more...)

PSG's second-half substitute Giovani Lo Celso swung the ball into the OL box and Marcelo put past his own 'keeper under duress from Cavani (75').

Chiefs fend off Eagles, move to 2-0
- September 18, 2017
Cairo Santos was 2 for 2 on field goals. The game came down to a Hail Mary but the Eagles prayers were not answered. But with the Giants coming to town next week these issues must be ironed out quickly. That just cannot happen. It's a give-and-a-take. Sometimes you give up something to get something. He celebrated after it was shown on the big screen before the call was even finalized. (more...)

Marshawn Lynch gives Oakland free Skittles before Raiders' home opener
- September 18, 2017
Marshawn Lynch seemingly has a vision for how Raiders fans can best appreciate the free Skittles machines he helped have put throughout the Bay Area before his first home game at the Oakland Coliseum. Then the vending machines filled with free candy will disappear from Oakland, although Lynch's presence-like a benevolent, Skittles-loving spirit-will remain behind, to watch over the city. (more...)

Sunweb shine with team time trial double at world championships
- September 18, 2017
We waited a bit on the climb as we knew ideally we needed five guys for the end, but the guys did a super job to bring it home. For BMC is was the second silver in as many years with Dennis, Scotson, Silvan Dillier, Stefan Küng, Daniel Oss and Tejay van Garderen in a dogfight with Sky for second as they finished with the minimum four riders.

Game Recap: Turnovers cost Bears in lopsided loss to Buccaneers
- September 18, 2017
It makes no sense, but we have a habit of prefacing criticism of Mike Glennon by saying he's a nice guy, as if that has anything to do with whether or not he's able to sense a pass rush or throw the ball to the correct team. Both linebacker Nick Kwiatkoski (pec) and offensive lineman Tom Compton (hip) suffered first-half injuries that ruled them out of the rest of the game. (more...)

Mercedes: 'Singapore will be more a case of damage limitation'
- September 18, 2017
If their vehicle is truly superior to the W08 EQ Power+ on circuits where downforce is heavily leant upon, then it won't be just Singapore at which Ferrari must excel; but in Malaysia, Austin and Abu Dhabi too. A one-year deal could leave Bottas vulnerable at the end of next season, with Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo among the drivers who will become available. (more...)

'Very clever' Cologne fans had Wenger making plans
- September 18, 2017
But, second half goals from Sead Kolasinac , Alexis Sanchez and Hector Bellerin helped seal a vital three points for a much-changed Arsenal side and justified Arsene Wenger's selections. But in the end at some stage I thought they would not play the game, because I can't see the police taking any risk". The Lions beat Arsenal in the UEFA Cup final to become the first Turkish side to lift the trophy. (more...)

Vettel warns Ferrari are no shoo-in for Singapore

Barring a bad start from Vettel, or a race incident, the odds on Hamilton maintaining his slender three-point lead over Vettel look slim. The fact this is a night race doesnt change much and we follow the same timetable as always. The 30-year-old will head into Singapore with maximum triumphs at the Marina Bay Circuit . It's the longest race of the season in terms of duration. (more...)

Tactical masterclass from Conte helps 10-man Chelsea shut out Arsenal
- September 18, 2017
The 0-0 draw also means the Gunners are still looking for a first away goal this season, as the three point lead we have over Arsenal is maintained. Hazard remains far less than fully fit, but in flashes after coming on in the 70th minute he showed by he must be regarded as Chelsea's most reliable match-winner as well as their most talented footballer.
