Former NFL quarterback and current ESPN analyst Robert Griffin III was trying to make a point countless fans have made over the years: Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has gotten vanishingly little help at times from his offensive teammates.
However, he did so in a fashion that could be interpreted as colorful — depending on your audio fidelity, mood, or predisposition toward Griffin III’s on-air wit.

Not much has gone right for the Patriots to start the 2023 NFL season. The team is off to a 1–4 start and coach Bill Belichick is taking the brunt of the heat for it. But with frustrations and criticism on the rise, none other than Tom Brady stepped in to address the situation and defend his former coach.
Brady spoke about Belichick on his latest Let’s Go! podcast, and was asked whether he believes his longtime coach will continue to be the same guy he’s been throughout his career.
“Absolutely.
The opening stand of the superteam WNBA Finals was a tale of two halves, with the Aces riding a surge down the stretch to a 99–82 win over the Liberty. Stars like LeBron James, Sheryl Swoopes and Tom Brady (who purchased a minority share in the franchise in March), were on hand for Game 1, with Michelob Ultra Arena euphoric as the Aces broke away from New York in emphatic fashion.
Sandy Brondello’s team will once again have to face down the unfriendly and unruly Sin City environment in Game 2, in hopes of leveling the series before making the trip back to Brooklyn.
The final play of Game 2 between the Braves and Phillies is kind of play that you can watch over and over again. Luckily, because it’s the postseason, it was captured from all sorts of angles—each of which is better than the last.
In case you somehow missed it, the game ended on a dramatic double play by Atlanta. Center fielder Michael Harris II made a leaping catch at the wall on a deep fly ball hit by Nick Castellanos. Bryce Harper, who had taken off from first after Castellanos hit the ball, needed to hustle back to the base to avoid being doubled up.
The 2023-24 NBA season is near, so at the end of another eventful summer we take our annual trip too close to the sun, daring you to stand the swelter of these views.
Occasionally, regular-season victories are sweeter than others. And sometimes regular-season losses sting more than others.
The Jets didn’t clinch a playoff spot, and the Cowboys weren’t eliminated from postseason contention in early October. But their outcomes in Week 5 were more emotional than most games for very different reasons.
The Cowboys again lost to the 49ers in a game that might have convinced them they can’t hang with their NFC rivals. As for the Jets, they lined up to hug offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett after they defeated Hackett’s former team, the Broncos.
Jon Litterine high sticks some hot takes for the 2023-24 fantasy hockey season — which of his predictions will come true?
Since 2010, Mike Pereira has served as a rules analyst for the NFL on Fox. The broadcast turns to Pereira, or his sidekick Dean Blandino, to provide instant analysis on questionable calls throughout the network’s various matchups.
CBS, NBC, ESPN, and Amazon have followed suit in hiring a full-time in-game rules analyst to complement their broadcasts.
Rules analysts have been welcome additions to the broadcast, considering play-by-play and color commentators are only moderately versed in the NFL rule book. And befuddling calls are synonymous with the product.
The Jets are looking at multiple options for wide receiver Mecole Hardman, including a trade, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
Hardman, who signed a one-year deal to join the Jets during free agency, did not play in the Jets’ 31–21 win on Sunday against the Broncos. Prior to the Week 5 matchup, the 25-year-old saw limited action in the Jets’ game against the Chiefs.
Hardman played in only six of New York’s 59 offensive plays against his former team. The two-time Super Bowl winner has hinted at his thoughts about his lack of playing with the franchise.
It’s okay to not be okay.
