INDIANAPOLIS — Trying to do his best “Tebowing,” Alec Baldwin got a bit of help on stage. The host of “NFL Honors” on NBC was kneeling down when Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow stepped up and showed Baldwin how it’s really done. “Bless you, Tim,” Baldwin responded. That capped a nearly 10-minute monologue Saturday night [...]
Do you feel like your cable bill is significantly higher than it used to be? That’s probably because it is. The average cable TV subscriber pays nearly three times as much for cable now as they did in 2001, according to research by SNL Kagan cited by theWall Street Journal. The jump in average prices — [...]
PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers spent 30 minutes Sunday reminding the seemingly overmatched Jacksonville Jaguars why they’re the defending AFC champions. Then they spent 30 minutes reminding the rest of the NFL why they’re so vulnerable. Pittsburgh narrowly avoided a stunning collapse in a 17-13 victory, a second straight win that hardly felt like one. [...]
GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Green Bay Packers’ record remains perfect. The fact that their play has been far from flawless remains a constant source of motivation for Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers threw three touchdowns, including a career-long 93-yarder to Jordy Nelson, and the Packers rolled to a 24-3 victory over the St. Louis Rams on [...]
After four quarters of back-and-forth action featuring a half dozen lead changes on Sunday, tensions between the San Francisco 49ers and Detroit Lions continued to climb even after the final whistle. In the aftermath of San Francisco’s comeback win over Detroit, things finally boiled over… but not between the players. 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh seems [...]
Green Bay Packers inside linebacker A.J. Hawk entered Sunday’s game with just a half a sack to his credit through five games. Having recorded just a half of a sack all of last season as the Packers won the Super Bowl, Hawk may have thought that he’d already gotten his yearly allotment in the category. Perhaps [...]
LANDOVER, Md. — The 50-50 plays that seemed to go wrong during the Philadelphia Eagles’ four-game skid went right for a change, and that’s perhaps the main reason the so-called dream team of the NFC East isn’t buried yet. The Eagles finally learned how to tackle and stop the run Sunday during a 20-13 win [...]
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Osi Umenyiora definitely has Justin Tuck’s back. He just wonders why former teammates-turned-television analysts Antonio Pierce and Michael Strahan don’t. Umenyiora blasted both former players for their criticisms of Tuck. The two were outspoken on Tuck not playing through neck and groin injuries last week, maladies that will keep Umenyiora’s bookend [...]
ALAMEDA, Calif. — The Oakland Raiders acquired linebacker Aaron Curry from the Seattle Seahawks, though it’s unclear if the former first-round pick will play this weekend. The trade, which sent Oakland’s seventh-round draft pick in 2012 and a conditional fifth-rounder in 2013 to Seattle, was completed Thursday after Curry passed a physical. A day after [...]
With a major divisional game coming up between the Jets and Dolphins on Monday Night Football, Miami’s Brandon Marshall came up with a game plan that coach Tony Sparano — along with anyone who has him on their fantasy teams — probably doesn’t want to hear. He is planning on getting ejected for fighting. Not only did [...]
