With a healthy Joe Burrow and the Bengals in contention, a 4:25 PM ET game against Josh Allen and Buffalo is a 30 million viewership game,
Instead, the NFL and Fox opt for Bears-Packers in the all-important late-afternoon Sunday window.

Is the Bay Area in California the greatest womenβs sports city in the United States?
Our staff thinks so.
Nearly eight years ago, for Sports Illustrated, I asked 22 well-known sports media members what specific career advice would they give to their younger selves. Was pretty fascinating to re-read this today.

β’ PRAY Ed Oliver can return for playoffs
β’ Gabe Davis looked better than I expected. Promise there.
β’ You don't want to lose Keon Coleman forever but reality: Passing game looked better with others.
β’ 4-1 over next five is very doable.
If you're looking for a Georgia-Texas alternative, FOX is airing a really interesting WBB game:
No. 2 South Carolina vs. No. 8 USC.
Better get USC this year because next year:
The return of JuJu Watkins, Jazzy Davidson as a soph, and incoming freshman Saniyah Hall.
The things you find during Fall cleaning.

Video shows him attempting to quickly de-escalate things as well as getting his teammate the hell out of there. A young man with great awareness.
