24+ min ago (435+ words) Even with Brock Purdy throwing three interceptions, the San Francisco 49ers walked out of Levi's Stadium with a 20-9 win over the Carolina Panthers on Monday night. Christian McCaffrey kept the offense moving while Purdy searched for rhythm, piling up 89 rushing yards and a score along with 53 receiving yards on seven catches. Jauan Jennings caught Purdy's only touchdown pass, a 12-yard throw on the first drive, yet that early grab ended up being far from the moment people will remember most from his night. With under three minutes left in the game, Moehrig landed a low blow on Jennings, prompting Jennings to hit Moehrig as the teams met for postgame handshakes. After the game, Moehrig spoke with reporters to offer his side of the altercation. Jennings didn't hold back when asked whether the tension with Moehrig had been building throughout the game....

They've now dropped four straight, and even if they somehow rattled off a miracle run and won out, they'd only finish with nine wins'probably not enough to punch a playoff ticket. Sure, it isn't mathematically impossible to sneak into the postseason at 98, but they were shut out last year with that exact record, and the odds right now sit at a bleak 1%. Next up is a Thanksgiving night trip to Baltimore to face the 65 Ravens, and one massive question hangs over the entire franchise: Will Joe Burrow play? The signs suggest yes'the Bengals appear to be ramping him back up. But the real question isn't whether he will play. It's should he, at least this early? And then there's the darkest timeline: Burrow…...

31+ min ago (745+ words) SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Though the bruised and battered San Francisco 49ers haven't had many aesthetically pleasing wins this season, they have found ways to get the victory. It happened again Monday night, as the Niners overcame a litany of first-half mistakes to knock off the Carolina Panthers20-9in a game that figures to be pivotal in the NFC playoff chase. With the win, the 49ers improved to 8-4, including 7-2 against NFC opponents. Carolina fell to 6-6 and 4-3 in NFC games. According to ESPN's Football Power Index, the Niners bolstered their playoff hopes from 86% to 91.3% and put the Panthers' chances in peril, as they dropped from 22.7% to 18%. Despite quarterback Brock Purdy providing plenty of opportunities for the Panthers to establish a lead and perhaps steal a victory, the Niners' injury-ravaged defense repeatedly prevented Carolina from capitalizing. Niners safety Ji'Ayir Brown supplied the biggest spark, coming up with…...

32+ min ago (416+ words) It's been nearly a decade since the NFL's Rams relocated from St. Louis to Los Angeles, but the legal fallout continues with no end in sight. Last week, a Missouri appellate court ruled that whether the Rams can buy a team training facility in Earth City, Mo., for just $1 will remain a question for Missouri courts and not arbitration. The Rams' move from Los Angeles to St. Louis in 1995, and then back to Los Angeles in 2016, is key to understanding this legal dispute. So, there are two contracts'a settlement and a lease'and each offers conflicting directions on whether disputes should be heard in court or arbitration." The Rams would understandably prefer arbitration over litigating in Missouri courts. The risk is that it's possible the team will be viewed negatively by locals for leaving St. Louis. Arbitration is also confidential, whereas…...

45+ min ago (468+ words) HUGH McCluggage has likened the club's pursuit of more premiership glory as an addiction as Brisbane tries not to focus too firmly on another club three-peat. Like 12 months earlier, there was barely a mention of September's dominant Grand Final defeat of Geelong when the Lions returned to pre-season training this week. "When you get there (to a Grand Final) it's exciting but you don't want anyone else to taste it, you get selfish," star Lions midfielder McCluggage said. "The smiles, the pure joy, the adrenaline." "You lap it up for a little bit, but yesterday you're doing laps in 38 degrees and you're back down to earth pretty quickly." Replicating the efforts of the 2001-03 triple premiership side will be an obvious talking point this year. "We're our own team, taken a different journey to get there but you've got the fans…...

The defense, at least on paper, has looked better than the offense. Regardless, when linebacker Quincy Williams was asked what it would take to finally close games, he pointed to the defensive issues first. "I"m always going to put it on the defense just because I"m a defensive captain. It"s going to be us getting the ball back to the offense, then closing out those games. So, I"m going to go turnovers because I"m a defensive player," he said. Accountability is admirable. But the…...
