Giardi: Two receivers with totally different characters but both getting better results
Romeo Doubs has been a fixture with the first-team dating back to the spring, but the times when he looked like the player we saw on tape in Green Bay were few and far between. That is, until last week.
Red Sox fall behind early and never recover in 8-4 loss to Pirates
Boston fell behind by four runs through four innings and never fully recovered in an 8-4 loss at PNC Park, continuing a difficult road trip and an offensive funk that has followed the Red Sox since their nine-game winning streak came to an end.
Bedard's Breakdown: Patriots' top two rookies, Lomu and Jacas, struggle in debut
Let's just say the Patriots' top two draft picks, tackle Caleb Lomu and edge Gabe Jacas, didn't light the world on fire in their preseason debuts against the Colts. But it was far from a disaster for both of them, as you'll see in the film analysis below.
Haggerty: Steeves ready to rebound from last season's 'pain'
Nobody would blame Alex Steeves if he felt like he could relax just a little based on carving out an NHL roster spot for himself in Boston last season, getting into some Stanley Cup playoff games and ending it all with a stint as one of the best players on Team USA at the IIHF World Championships last spring.
Giardi: NFL Notebook - The road to 53, part 1; plus, a winner declared in Minnesota QB competition

Payton Tolle dominates, Caleb Durbin delivers grand slam as Red Sox snap five-game skid
The Red Sox desperately needed someone to stop the bleeding Thursday afternoon.One start after overpowering the Athletics with a career-high 14 strikeouts, rookie Payton Tolle was the stopper the Red Sox needed Thursday, dominating in a completely different way with eight shutout innings.
FINAL: Patriots 13, Colts 13 - DeVito 12-yard touchdown pass to Kyle Williams; Borregales misses GW kick
I expect Tommy DeVito to start and play a little, but most of the game will be QB'd by Behren Morton. I don't expect many starters, especially the veterans, to play in this game. Colts coach Shane Steichen said QB Anthony Richardson will play the first half. Riley Leonard will get the second half. The Colts are also sitting a "slew" of starters. The newly installed turf is also worth watching.

I think the running back pecking order is established. Rhamondre Stevenson is the between-the-tackles guy, and until proven otherwise, the most reliable back on passing downs.
The Celtics have gone all-in on Mazzulla Ball
All the stats, projections, and numbers in the world cannot erase the sting of trading a guy like Brown. But when you take a step back and push emotions aside for a moment, it becomes clear: The Celtics are diving head-first into Mazzulla Ball.
Adley Rutschman reaches three times in debut, but Chad Tracy’s pitching decisions loom large in fourth straight loss
Well, don’t look now, but the Red Sox have quickly hit their first real skid in nearly two months.Boston dropped its fourth straight game Tuesday night, falling 5-3 to the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre despite doing a much better job against Dylan Cease than it did less than three weeks ago at Fenway Park.
