This Atlanta Falcons team had everything to play for-a small chance to climb the ladder in the NFC South, pride, their coaching staff, one another, and even not handing a top ten pick to the Rams in 2026-and they simply weren't good enough to beat a Jets team that entered the day at 2-9. The list of failures was long, but what's most remarkable is how many times the Falcons could have simply won this one outright against a Jets team
San Francisco wasn't flashy in their 26-8 win over the Browns. They weren't particularly exciting. But a ninth win is a ninth win. And in this league, a ninth win in December doesn't just loom large. It casts a shadow over the entire conference. What if the Niners aren't the chasing team, but, in fact, the team being chased? Sunday's win puts San Francisco squarely in the driver's seat for the NFC playoffs.
TOUCHDOWN! Dolphins 7-0 Saints 10:42, 1st quarter Devon Achane gets Miami off to a flier. He bursts free for a 29-yard scorching touchdown. New Orleans had no chance once he got into space. Share Matt Stafford cashes in the generous field position to who else than his new favourite target Davante Adams. Poor Kyren Williams can't get a look in on the goalline. Automatic touchdown. The MVP is looking locked in for Stafford.
Explaining his decision before kick-off to recall him for the Premier League trip to Selhurst Park, Amorim reinforced that support. "Mason Mount is really smart," he said. "He gives us more possession. He is intense and he can score goals, so is one more player to be near the box." The remark showed incredible foresight as Mount sealed United's first victory at Palace since 2020 by drilling home what seemed to be a pre-planned free-kick move with skipper Bruno Fernandes from 20 yards.

Monaco take on PSG in a Ligue 1 derby this afternoon, with the hosts desperate for some points. As usual, the visitors lead the standings and look on course to claim another French crown, but the hosts are struggling to keep up.

As per the report, the Netherlands international did not join his teammates this morning at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper for the usual pre-match gathering before heading to the hotel, and he is now doubtful for the game. De Jong did not play for Barcelona last week against Athletic Club, on the reopening of the Spotify Camp Nou, as he was suspended due to the red card he picked up vs Celta Vigo.
MIAMI GARDENS - The Miami Dolphins appear primed to get cornerback Rasul Douglas back in the lineup for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. "I feel very optimistic," McDaniel said about Douglas' status before the team's Friday practice. "He's eager." Douglas has missed the Dolphins' last two games with foot and ankle injuries and has since had the team's bye week to allow for further recovery.
Center Kirby Dach is out of action and on injured reserve with a fractured foot. Center Alex Newhook is out of action with a broken ankle and is also on injured reserve. Left winger Patrik Laine is out with an abdominal issue and defenseman Kaiden Guhle is on injured reserve and will miss 8-10 weeks after adductor muscle surgery. The center depth took a massive hit and so did the offense with the loss of Dach and NEwhook.
The Buffalo Bills will be without pivotal pieces of the offense when the team plays the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday as both starting offensive tackles -- Dion Dawkins and Spencer Brown -- have been ruled out by coach Sean McDermott. They are dealing with injuries stemming from the team's Week 12 loss to the Houston Texans. Brown suffered a shoulder injury in the game and tried to play through it, but was unable to finish the game, sitting out the final drive.
"He was involved in many positive actions and his work rate was unbelievable. He brings other things to the table: his intelligence, the way he competes, the way he masters a lot of the things that are crucial for us."
Sean Dyche's side beat Liverpool 3-0 at Anfield on Saturday, and are now looking to take that momentum back to the Midlands as they look to build on a mixed Europa League start. The Tricky Trees sit 23rd in the standings, a way off the automatic qualification places. Their opponents, Malmo, are even further down, in 33rd, with just one point to their name. Both sides will be desperate for three points here as we begin the final stretch of fixtures in the initial league phase.
A call was made to 911 regarding gun shots being fired at 7:21 p.m. earlier tonight, Nov. 26. Police officers that responded to the call found two individuals shot at Fulton and Jay Street. One of the two was an 18-year-old man who had been shot in the left leg and elbow; the other was a woman of a currently unknown age, who was shot in the right leg.
When the Dolphins run: Miami has found a bit of an identity with the ground game. Running back De'Von Achane has put himself in a top-five conversation in the league as he ranks fourth in rushing yards (900) and third in rushing average (5.5). Before the bye week, he went for 120 yards in the overtime win against the Washington Commanders in Madrid. To add to that, rookie Ollie Gordon spelled him for 45 yards on nine carries and a touchdown,
Starting with the hosts, marking their return from November's international break with a collapse away at Brighton as they eventually fell to a 2-1 loss on the south coast, Brentford will be seeking an immediate response here. Nevertheless, despite opening up the 2025/26 campaign widely regarded as a standout relegation candidate, Keith Andrews' men have rightfully received plenty of plaudits from across England's elite.
Thirteen people are reportedly injured - one seriously - after a tram came off the rails in the south of Düsseldorf, western Germany, on Wednesday morning. A police spokesperson said it appeared the tram, which was travelling on the U72 line in Düsseldorf-Holthausen, had derailed due to a technical issue with the signal box. The tram was on Bonner Straße at around 5:40am when the derailment happened. The vehicle then collided with another tram.
The Rays are in agreement on a one-year, major league contract with outfielder Jake Fraley, reports Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. They non-tendered him last week but were reported to be interested in bringing Fraley back at a lesser rate than his projected arbitration price tag (which MLBTR contributor Matt Swartz pegged at $3.6MM). Fraley is represented by CAA. Fraley, 30, was originally drafted by the Rays with the No. 77 overall pick back in 2016.
If there's a correlation between spending the most money and winning a championship, I still think it's a weak correlation. Sample size of data, not very big. But they earned every bit of it. I mean, they struggled with injuries throughout the season. But they got healthy at the right time. The rotation got healthy, and when that rotation is healthy, they're tough to beat.
