Led by quarterback Joe Flacco, the Browns defeated the Jets to secure just their third postseason appearance since 1999.

Rutgers held off Miami to win the Bad Boy Mowers Pinstripe Bowl on Thursday, and Rutgers players did their best to make sure Miami wouldn’t soon forget the loss at Yankee Stadium in New York.
After a game-clinching stop with less than 10 seconds to play to get Miami’s offense off the field and preserve the 31–24 victory, Rutgers defensive back Robert Longerbeam flashed a downward “U” celebration to troll Hurricanes fans and players.

We might as well just get rid of January 6th entirely from the calendar.
It all started when the New York Rangers minor league hockey affiliate Cincinnati Cyclones tweeted out a post about an upcoming game where they will wear their throwback red jerseys.
“We don’t care, we paint the town red!” the team’s now-deleted tweet said as they referenced a popular Doja Cat lyric while also showing the red jerseys.

Damar Hamlin is on the phone from Buffalo after two weeks spent seesawing through every human emotion, each day simultaneously exactly what he wanted and not nearly enough. He’s discussing a video of himself a reporter put on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter) on Nov. 5, specifically, the text he wrote when he reposted it. It read, in part: y’all don’t know the half of it.

Below, we look at 15 games, including many that feature teams trying to clinch playoff berths or move up within their conference’s playoff picture.
So what’s going to determine how those games go? Let’s examine. Here’s a defining matchup for every game:
Detroit Lions (11–4) vs. Dallas Cowboys (10–5)
Key matchup: Detroit’s running backs vs. Cowboys’ front
The Cowboys have been solid defensively throughout the year but they’re average against the run, ranking tied for 15th at 4.2 yards per carry against.

The Minnesota Vikings got bad news when tight end T.J. Hockenson was lost for the season after he sustained a knee injury against the Lions on Sunday. But the news isn’t just about this season.
Dr. David Chao, the former team physician for the San Diego Chargers and an OutKick contributor, believes Hockenson is going to miss the start of the 2024 season as well.
“Couple of reasons,” Dr. Chao said. “This is a December injury. That already puts him on a tight timeline. No. 2, he has an MCL injury as well as an ACL.

Negotiations between the PGA Tour and Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) to agree on a merger and create a new for-profit entity could drag into the Spring of 2024.

Shortly after Georgia clinched the national championship with two late scores against Alabama in the 2022 CFP title game, Stetson Bennett visited coach Kirby Smart.
