Alabama's defense had an uncharacteristically poor performance in the national championship game rout against Clemson.

With its high-octane offense, Alabama could afford to field a strong but less-than-overwhelming defense this season; a unit that ranked 10th in the nation in yards per game given up and fourth in opponents’ points.

What the Crimson Tide couldn’t afford in the national championship game against C

You might want to go ahead and clear your weekend schedule because the NFL playoffs are here and they’re starting on Saturday.

After a wild Week 17, you won’t have much time to catch your breath and that’s because the postseason will be kicking off in Houston on Jan. 5 when the AFC South champion Texans play host to the Colts. This game will mark the third time this year that these two teams have met, and if the two earlier games are any indication, this one could get wild. In Week 4, the Texa

The Oakland Raiders have fired general manager Reggie McKenzie, effective immediately, the team announced Monday.

“We are grateful for everything Reggie has done for this organization as a player, executive and member of the Raider family,” the team said in a statement, adding that the team “will immediately begin a search for a new front office executive and will have no further comment until that process is complete.”

McKenzie, 55, had been the Raiders’ GM since 2012. He was under contract

1. The Seahawks defense followed in the footsteps of the Ravens‘ and Bears‘ this week, frustrating the opposing big-time quarterback across the line of scrimmage, forcing stops with crushing pressure and proving that, in today’s NFL, defense can still be king. Led by Bobby WagnerFrank Clark and a transcendent Shaquill Griffin, Seattle nearly shut out Kirk Cousins and an overwhelmed Vikings offense and held Minnesota to just 276 total yards. Minnesota attempted to lean on Dalvin Cook early, b

Raptors have a superstar ready to duel with best in Leonard

TORONTO -- The Toronto Raptors had seen this movie before.

When Kevin Durant hit a completely absurd turnaround fall-away 3-pointer in the corner to tie the game at 119 in the final seconds of regulation, he completely wiped away what had been an 18-point Raptors lead. In the moment, it seemed like the cap on another night of succumbing to pressure for a franchise that ha

The AI-Ty Lue celebration!

It took a while for Tyler Lockett to get his eighth touchdown of the year. The refs initially ruled the Seahawks WR just short of the goal line, but Pete Carroll challenged the call and it was overturned to a touchdown.

Hello, Amari Cooper.

And hello to a working Cowboys offense, a defense that creates turnovers and Ezekiel Elliott in rookie form.

Three touchdowns in 7 minutes and 36 seconds and three interceptions were among the highlights on an explosive Thanksgiving Day for Dallas in a 31-23 victory over Washington.

A Cowboys offense so broken in the NFC East rivals’ October game appears fixed. Credit, in part, the trade for Cooper that the Cowboys pulled off a day after that loss to Washington.

Jared Goff threw a 40-yard touchdown pass to Gerald Everett for the go-ahead score with 1:49 to play, and the Los Angeles Rams outlasted the Kansas City Chiefs for a 54-51 victory on Monday night in a high-octane NFL offensive showdown that somehow surpassed the hype.

Patrick Mahomes passed for a career-high 478 yards with six touchdown passes in his latest jaw-dropping effort for the Chiefs (9-2), but he also threw two interceptions in the final 1:18 as the Rams (10-1) claimed the highest-sco

If you saw what happened to Alex Smith’s leg, you didn’t need the updates. Watching the video was enough to tell you that his tibia and fibula were broken, and that he needed immediate surgery, and that he’s out for the year. It was one of the more gruesome football injuries in recent memory, and came 33 years to the day—in a game with the same final score—as Joe Theismann’s legendary injury. The point is, the Skins need a quarterback.

Colt McCoy, the onl

Le’Veon Bell has officially left $14.5 million on the table.

The All-Pro running back failed to report to Pittsburgh Steelers headquarters Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET, the deadline for him to play this season on the franchise tag.

“I want to confirm that Le’Veon Bell did not sign his Franchise Tender today and, as a result, he will not be eligible to play football during the 2018 season,” Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert said in a statement.

Bell, who’s currently in Pittsburgh, is missing the
