5 Chiefs-Eagles questions that will decide Super Bowl LIX

Super Bowl LIX - the second championship clash in three years between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles - kicks off Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET in New Orleans. Here are five questions to think about ahead of the rematch.Will the QBs avoid mistakes?Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes didn't enjoy All-Pro seasons. Neither ranked very high in a major passing stat. They tied for ninth in expected points added per dropback, according to TruMedia. But their fulfilment of a basic quarterbacking responsibility - holding onto the ball - helped their offenses hum and set up this high-stakes sequel.Hurts' Eagles own a spotless 10-0 playoff turnover differential. They've racked up 15 straight takeaways since the team's last giveaway. Neither quarterback's been intercepted since mid-November, and the Chiefs avoided turnovers for eight straight games before Mahomes finally botched a handoff in the conference championship.These QBs lead dissimilar attacks. Built to run wild, Philadelphia empowers Hurts to plunge for cru

Trade grades: Urgent Granlund swap benefits everyone

The Dallas Stars prolonged the NHL's trading spree by poaching the last-place San Jose Sharks' top scorer.Dallas acquired veteran forward Mikael Granlund and defenseman Cody Ceci on Saturday for a pair of 2025 draft selections. San Jose receives the Stars' first-round pick, as well as a conditional third-round pick that becomes a fourth-rounder should Dallas bow out before the Stanley Cup Final.Let's evaluate the deal for both teams.Stars Sam Hodde / Getty ImagesReinforcements are en route to Dallas, a Central Division contender that's won four straight yet needed to make a move to counteract the loss of several injured regulars, most notably Miro Heiskanen.Granlund wouldn't lead many squads in points, but he's a slick puck carrier and playmaker who deepens the Stars' enviable complement of offensive weapons. He sniped two nice goals, then dished three assists in recent back-to-back Sharks defeats to the Nashville Predators (the aggregate score was 13-10). He's going from a defensive trainwreck to a fortress

Inside the NFL tie's sudden disappearance

When NFL games end in a tie, some contestants profess confusion and ignorance. Steelers running back Najee Harris and retired Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb headline the group of players and coaches who have admitted they didn't know ties were possible.No other Big Four league tolerates ties, but even in football, these sporadic, mutually deflating results have vanished. We're in the longest stretch without a tied NFL game - just over two years - in more than a decade. It's the first dearth of stalemates since overtime was shortened from 15 to 10 minutes.Exactly 558 regular-season games have been won since the last tie on Dec. 4, 2022, when the Commanders and Giants traded punts and set the stage for New York's Graham Gano to miss a last-ditch, 58-yard field goal. Their 20-20 draw punctuated a flurry of ties - seven between 2018-22 - that stemmed from teams having less time on the clock to score.Unless an OT period is deadlocked in the next month, back-to-back seasons will elapse without a tie for the firs

Apps like theScore didn’t exist when Michael MacCambridge grew up in Kansas City in the 1970s, back when it was harder for a kid to follow the hometown team. Late Royals games that ran past his bedtime sometimes ended after the morning newspaper went to print. The sports section relayed who led through seven innings.The suspense dogged MacCambridge, now an author of sports history books, as he left for grade school.“Only when I came home and got the afternoon paper could I find out the final sco…

Why 1,000-yard king Mike Evans is the NFL's most consistent receiver

When Mike Evans played for Texas A&M, he told his position coach about a vulnerability to exploit. Evans noticed on film that Alabama cornerbacks often fronted a wide receiver as he broke upfield, anticipating a curl route that they'd be ready to spoil. The coverage invited the wideout to go long.Evans stepped on the gas when the teams clashed 10 years ago and caught a 95-yard touchdown pass from Johnny Manziel, humbling the 'Bama defense as he exhibited what makes him excellent. Easy for Manziel to spot at 6-foot-5, Evans was too fast and too strong to tackle once the quarterback fed him the ball. He was unstoppable in the game, exploding for 279 yards on seven catches."Particularly above a certain height, you don't see (players who possess) a lot of speed. It just doesn't happen," said David Beaty, Texas A&M's wide receivers coach at the time."When you see guys like Mike out there," Beaty added, "they wind up making a lot of money."They amass huge yardage, too. Gashing NFL defenses, Evans gained 1,0

Puck on his blade, John LeClair sped down the left wing in the Stanley Cup Final intending to give up the chance to be heroic. A Montreal Canadiens teammate streaked open beside him, ready to one-time a cross-ice feed. The last defenseman back and the opposing goaltender both sprawled to muddle their two-on-one rush.‘I really didn’t have a pass to Stephan Lebeau,’ LeClair told reporters afterward. ’I ended up behind the net with everybody out of the net, so I tried to jam it in myself, and I got…

Who was Woody Strode, Hollywood star who broke the NFL color barrie...

In the twilight of his film career, Woody Strode reflected on the opportunities he was denied and others he seized. The pioneering Black character actor relocated from the United States to Europe for a while to pursue bigger and more interesting roles.“Race is not a factor in the world market,” Strode said. “I once played a part written for an Irish prize fighter. I’ve done everything but play an Anglo-Saxon. I’d do that if I could. I’d play a Viking with blue contact lenses and a blond wig.“In…
