DODGER STADIUM (Los Angeles) — Milwaukee is on the verge of abolishing baseball’s Evil Empire. The Brewers are one win away from a trip to the World Series for the first time since 1982 after taking a 3-0 series lead over the Dodgers in the NLCS. The Dodgers, backed into the smallest of corners, now face an uphill battle against a well-rounded and red-hot Brewers team that has found its rhythm […]

We're only five weeks through the 2026 NFL season, but Tom Brady is ready to make a pair of definitive statements: There's a team separating themselves from the rest of the pack and another team is tracking toward having an all-time unit. In the most recent edition of Brady's power rankings, the GOAT proclaimed that the San Francisco 49ers are the team to beat in the NFL following their Week […]

Twenty-five seconds might seem like nothing. But it's literally everything to a quarterback and his playcaller, because that's all the time they have to communicate between plays from headset to helmet. Yes, the NFL play clock allows 40 seconds from when one play ends and when the center snaps the ball for the next. That’s hard enough to manage. But the link between the playcaller and the QB is even […]

Welcome to the Quarterback Notebook, where I’ll cover the past week in NFL quarterbacking – from the most interesting passers, plays and storylines to some other stuff that caught my eye while watching film this week. This week, we’ll ask if the Seahawks have a Sam Darnold problem, dig into Justin Herbert's season from hell, and defend the concept of an arm punt. Let’s talk quarterbacks. The simple answer is […]

Handing Oregon its second loss of the season has strengthened UCLA's case for a College Football Playoff bid, but fellow Big Ten squad USC is right there fighting alongside it. Similarly, the Big 12's Utah and BYU have perfect 5-0 records to this point, but it's likely only one of each pair will get the nod in this year's College Football Playoff. Additionally, Oklahoma State and Eric Morris have made […]

Shohei Ohtani insists that he can play, that his symptoms "have subdued a lot," and that his "No. 1 priority is for the team to win." Now, after looking completely out of sorts to start the postseason, it’s on him to show it. The Dodgers’ season rests, at least in part, on his candidness. "I did speak to Sho, had a great conversation," said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. "He’s adamant […]

What do a five-star quarterback from California who once committed to play for Nick Saban and a three-star prospect from Texas who nearly started his career at Indiana have in common? More than you might think. Ohio State's Julian Sayin and Indiana's Josh Hoover took different paths to get where they are today, but both share the same goal of winning a national championship. Two Paths To Stardom: Sayin vs. […]

Kyler Murray had the best throw of the week. Dak Prescott had some of the worst. Sam Darnold threw a pair of interceptions versus the 49ers, and Jayden Daniels took a sack at the end of overtime that ensured a tie against the Giants. Meanwhile, Jared Goff — of all people — is off to a historically prolific start for the Lions. Let’s get into all of it. These aren’t […]

Remember when we were pressing the panic button on Drake Maye two weeks ago? Maybe we did that too soon. The New England Patriots quarterback had one of the best performances of his young career in his team's dominant win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. He looked like the version of himself that nearly won MVP last year, and he's now one of a handful of players to […]
