D.K. Metcalf • Arizona Cardinals • Budda Baker • Seattle Seahawks • National Rugby League • Russell Wilson

DK Metcalf Makes "Most Remarkable" Play In Seahawks Loss At Arizona Without touching the ball, DK Metcalf had a play that had everyone raving after Sunday night’s loss in Arizona.  Through five games, Seahawks receiver DK Metcalf was one of the NFL's most productive pass catchers with 496 yards and five touchdowns. He had a relatively quiet game, numbers wise, in Sunday night's 37-34 overtime loss to Arizona.  But despite catching only two passes for 23 yards, Metcalf made one of the best plays of this season, one that had teammates and opponents raving after the game, and that had football fans going crazy on social media.  With the Seahawks driving for what they hoped would be another touchdown, Russell Wilson lofted a pass towards Chris Carson, not seeing that Cardinals safety Budda Baker was breaking on the ball.  Baker picked off Wilson's pass and took off sprinting down the left sideline for what looked like it was going to be a 98-yard touchdown, but Metcal...

San Francisco 49ers • New England Patriots • Jimmy Garoppolo • Bill Belichick • National Rugby League • Cam Newton

Bill Belichick says Patriots ‘absolutely’ plan to stick with Cam Newton as starting quarterback The Patriots' coach admitted his team was "out-coached, out-played, out-everything."

Would Newton — who has thrown zero touchdowns and five interceptions in his last two games (both losses) — remain the Patriots’ starting quarterback? “Absolutely,” Belichick responded. “Just wanted to get [Stidham] a little experience here.” On the team’s performance overall, Belichick acknowledged the team’s collective struggles. “We were clearly out-coached, outplayed. Just out-everything,” Belichick admitted. In his assessment of the loss, Belichick pla...

Denver Broncos • Kansas City Chiefs • National Rugby League • Patrick Mahomes II

Chiefs freeze out Broncos, coast to win in the snow DENVER – The Kansas City Chiefs didn’t need the usual heroics from Patrick Mahomes to rout the Denver Broncos 43-16 Sunday for their 10th straight win over their AFC West rivals. The Chiefs (6-1) found other ways to dominate Denver (2-4) on a snowy afternoon that began with a temperature of 14 degrees at kickoff. Kansas City took a 24-9 halftime lead even though Mahomes completed just one pass in the second quarter, a 5-yarder, and had just 99 yards through the air in the first half. Mahomes finally extended his NFL-leading streak to 17 consecutive games with a touchdown throw when he hit Tyreek Hill from 10 yards with 11 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. That made it 37-9 and compelled Broncos pass rusher Bradley Chubb to blow up at his teammates on the sideline. Mahomes’ TD throw to Hill followed the Chiefs’ fourth takeaway, an interception by Tyrann Mathieu when rookie KJ Hamler let Drew Lock’s pass bounce off him and right ...

Los Angeles Chargers • Jacksonville Jaguars • National Rugby League • Justin Herbert

Justin Herbert notches first NFL win as Chargers top Jaguars INGLEWOOD, Calif. – Justin Herbert got his first NFL win, throwing for 347 yards and three touchdowns as well as running for a score as the Los Angeles Chargers snapped a four-game losing streak with a 39-29 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Herbert, the sixth overall pick in April’s draft, completed 27 of 43 passes. He also rushed for 66 yards, a single-game high for a Chargers QB. Herbert joined Cincinnati’s Joe Burrow as the only rookie quarterbacks in NFL history with 300 yards, at least three passing TDs, and one rushing in a game. Burrow did that earlier Sunday in the Bengals’ 37-34 loss to the Cleveland Browns. More importantly for Herbert, was that first win as an NFL starting quarterback despite Los Angeles blowing another large lead. Jacksonville (1-6) tied an NFL record by allowing 30 or more points in six consecutive games. The Chargers jumped to a 16-0 second-quarter lead but squandered a double-di...

The Arizona Cardinals will play host to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday Night Football this week in an exciting NFC West battle.

The Seahawks are letting Wilson cook this season, allowing him to spread the ball around the field and let his playmakers work. Second...

Chiefs , chiefs vs. Broncos

Kansas City Chiefs score plenty without much Patrick Mahomes In the bitter temperatures and snow of the Rocky Mountains, the  Kansas City Chiefs  couldn't rely on a big day from  Patrick Mahomes  and the offense against the  Denver Broncos  on Sunday. So they showed some versatility in running up a big score. The Chiefs became the first NFL team this season to score a touchdown on offense, defense and special teams in their  43-16 win , a result that ran their winning streak to 10 games against the Broncos. The conditions were raw, so it wasn't a day for the passing game. Mahomes didn't account for his first touchdown until a fourth-quarter pass to  Tyreek Hill . He completed 15 of 23 passes overall for 200 yards. But the  Chiefs scored touchdowns in all three phases , giving them their highest-scoring game of the season. Mahomes extended his streak of regular-season games with a touchdown pass to 17, the longest current streak in the league....

Kliff Kingsbury • Arizona Cardinals • National Rugby League • Head coach • New England Patriots

Arizona Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury's beautiful mind TEMPE, Ariz. -- While other kids his age spent their summer in New Braunfels, Texas, going to the river or playing with their friends,  Arizona Cardinals  coach Kliff Kingsbury, then 9 years old, spent his on the football field at two-a-days. Tim Kingsbury, Kliff's father, was defensive coordinator at New Braunfels High School, where he'd later become head coach and Kliff would go on to star as quarterback. A young Kliff and longtime friend David Simmonds, whose father was the New Braunfels offensive coordinator, were staples at practice. The two were ball boys and never missed a day, Simmonds said. If they weren't at practice, they were inside watching film. And when they weren't watching film, they were drawing plays up on a whiteboard. "Who does that as a 9-year-old?" Simmonds asked. "That's ridiculous." It's not that different from what Kingsbury does now as coach of the Cardina...
