There will be a temptation to draw parallels between this game and Newcastle. They were both 1-0 defeats, but make no mistake, these were two completely different matches. In the north east Arsenal were miles off the pace. At no point did they ever have the better of their opponents. In Milan, aside from the opening 10 minutes, they were dominant. They outshot their opponent by 20 to seven, had almost two thirds of the possession and over 150 more passes. They had the chances to win it too. Kai Havertz could perhaps have done better when his goal-bound shot…
The Houston Texans are sitting atop the AFC South with a 6-3 record, and a comfortable lead over the Indianapolis Colts, who sit at 4-5 and have lost both matchups to Houston this season. Despite their record and high likelihood of winning the division, Houston has been dealt a bad hand when it comes to injuries. Star receiver Stefon Diggs was lost for the year with a torn ACL, and their other Pro Bowl receiver Nico Collins was placed on IR with a hamstring injury sustained in a win over the Buffalo Bills. However, the Texans look like they’ll be…
HOUSTON – The Texans were awarded offensive tackle Zachary Thomas off waivers from the New England Patriots. Thomas is a former Chicago Bears sixth-round draft pick from San Diego State. Thomas (6-foot-5, 300 pounds) has also played for the Los Angeles Rams. A former All-Mountain West Conference selection, Thomas has played in 11 career games. He played in eight games for the Patriots before being waived. He has played 84 offensive snaps, 17 percent of the total playing time. He played 35 snaps last season and one snap on offense as a rookie.
We’re only two days away from the next Texans game, which is Thursday night against the Jets on the road. Houston hasn’t won there since 2018, when they beat New York in December on a Saturday afternoon. It was the only game on television in that time slot, and the Texans also beat the Jets there on Monday Night Football in 2012. The Houston Chronicle’s Jonathan Alexander shared his “5 Things We Learned” from the win over the Colts.Linebacker Devin White signed with the Texans last week, and then suited up and played in the win over the Colts. Texans…
The Texans are back on the practice fields again today and they’re prepping for the 7-1 Detroit Lions. Houston’s rocking the Battle Red on Sunday Night Football, so naturally, they worked in their Battle Red Helmets. I talked with Team Analyst/Radio Sideline Reporter John Harris about the matchup with Detroit. We each pinpointed a player of importance for Houston, and also discussed a few other things. You can watch that below. Aaron Wilson of KPRC-2 wrote about the Texans offensive line and the idea of ‘1 band, 1 sound’. Texans Vice President/General Manager Nick Caserio spoke about a variety of…
Liverpool boss Arne Slot left both ex-Reds star Jamie Carragher and former Manchester City defender Micah Richards disappointed after naming his favorite CBS pundit. The Reds returned to action in the Champions League on Tuesday night, recording a rampant 4-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen. While the game was 0-0 at the break, a second half hat-trick from Luis Diaz coupled with a goal from Cody Gakpo saw Liverpool maintain their perfect record in Europe this term. After the clash, Slot was doing post-match media, which saw him end up on CBS’s Champions League coverage, fronted by Kate Scott, Thierry Henry,…
The Houston Texans are fresh off a tough loss against the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football. Leading up to the contest, New York was quite an abysmal football team, so the loss to drop the Texans’ record to 6-3 hurt that much more. The Texans are without wide receivers Nico Collins and Stefon Diggs — who suffered a season-ending knee injury — so the result wasn’t exactly shocking. However, Collins is eligible to return from Injured Reserve, which would make a huge difference for Houston. The Houston Texans are fresh off a tough loss against the New York…

Former world No 2 Goran Ivanisevic, who once coached Novak Djokovic, has come to the defense of rising Italian star Jannik Sinner amidst the controversy surrounding his failed doping tests, emphasizing the need for patience and understanding towards the young player. Speaking passionately about Sinner’s situation, Ivanisevic said, “Tennis needs Sinner on the court. We need to let him focus on his game without the weight of undue scrutiny weighing him down.” He expressed his concern that there are forces at play wishing to undermine Sinner’s career through harsh criticism and excessive negativity. Back in August, the International Tennis Integrity…
World No. 1 Jannik Sinner was spotted hitting the courts in Turin in anticipation of the high-profile ATP Finals starting next week. The Italian was seen in unique Nike gear while practicing. Sinner wore Nike apparel with his signature “Fox” logo on his hat and his name imprinted on his Nike shoes. The player had “001” imprinted on his custom-made Nike jacket, which he adorned during his practice sessions. The “001” was to symbolize the Italian’s ranking in 2024, as he finished the ATP calendar as the top-ranked male player for the first time in his career. Previously, during the…
