The Duke of Sussex's searingly honest memoir, Spare, became the fastest-selling non-fiction book ever when his tell-all tale about the royal family was published in 2023.
His explosive autobiography gave royal watchers a very intimate insight into all his personal goings-on, including introducing his future wife Meghan Markle to the royal family.
Although Meghan's first meeting with the late monarch was "pleasant", Prince Harry confessed his frustration at some of the circumstances.
"There was some bloke standing to the other side of Granny and I thought: Bogey at twelve o'clock," he wrote, referring to a friend of Sarah Ferguson. "Meg looked to me for a clue as to his identity, but I couldn't help – I'd never seen him before.
"[Princess Eugenie] whispered into my ear that he was a friend of her mum's. Ah, OK. I looked at him hard, 'Brilliant. Congratulations on being present for one of the most consequential moments of my life.'"

India will begin their three-match T20I series against Afghanistan in New Delhi on Sunday, with the team facing a selection call between young sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and experienced wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson.
Sooryavanshi played in the first two T20Is during India's England tour before Samson returned to the playing XI for the final match. The team management now has another chance to ******* s both players ahead of the Asian Games in ******* an.
Samson and Abhishek Sharma have formed a more settled opening combination for India in T20Is. However, Sooryavanshi's attacking style gives the team another option at the top.
During Friday's net session, Samson appeared slightly more in control, while Sooryavanshi spent time facing Jasprit ******* rah and learning how to deal with movement off the surface.
The 15-year-old could enjoy the Afghanistan attack, with none of their bowlers matching ******* rah's quality. Afghanistan's pace could also suit Sooryavanshi's aggressive, stand-and-deliver style.
Samson's omission in England after three failures also raised questions, especially given his experience in the format.
India could also consider playing both Samson and Sooryavanshi if Ishan Kishan is ruled out.
Kishan had a back injury scare during Friday's net session. He comes into the series after a brilliant Duleep Trophy final, where he scored 270 and 80.
Kishan will be keen to play because T20Is remain the only format in which he is currently a regular for India.
The three-match series will give India's Asian Games-bound players valuable preparation against a strong Afghanistan side.
Afghanistan have a world-class spin attack featuring Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad and Mujeeb Ur Rahman. Facing them in three T20Is will be a major test for India's batters ahead of the Asian Games in ******* an.
When will the India vs Afghanistan 1st T20I be played?
The first T20I between India and Afghanistan will be played on Sunday, September 13, 2026.
Where will the India vs Afghanistan 1st T20I be played?
The match will be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi.
What time will the India vs Afghanistan 1st T20I start?
The first T20I will start at 7 PM IST on Sunday.
When will the toss take place?
The toss is expected to take place at around 6:30 PM IST, 30 minutes before the scheduled start of play.
Where can fans watch the India vs Afghanistan 1st T20I on TV?
The match will be telecast live in India on the Sony Sports Network.

LONDON, Sept 11 (Reuters) - Intelligence services must not dwell too much on past threats but accept that a new strategic shock along the lines of the 9/11 attacks could already be in preparation where they are not looking, the head of Britain's MI5 spy agency said.
In an opinion piece published on Friday to mark 25 years since al Qaeda militants crashed hijacked passenger jets into the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon, MI5's Director General Ken McCallum said security agencies had to be ready to adapt to current and future challenges.
"We know that the next strategic shock will, by definition, not resemble the last one. That is perhaps the most important lesson of all," McCallum wrote in the commentary for the Independent newspaper.
"We must of course always learn from the last attack – but must beware of preparing brilliantly to fight yesterday's enemy, using yesterday's methods, against yesterday's target ... The uncomfortable truth is that the next strategic shock may already be taking shape somewhere we are not yet looking."
Al Qaeda, though diminished, remains a threat, as does the aspiration of that group and other militants for mass casualty attacks, McCallum said.

Bruno Guimaraes's brilliant first ***** nal goal and David Raya's penalty save inspired the Gunners to a 2-0 victory at Sunderland on Saturday to extend a flawless start to their Premier League ***** le defence.
Mikel Arteta's men have conceded just once in five games in all competitions but Sunderland had the chance to breach ***** nal's imposing rearguard when Raya tipped Enzo Le Fee's spot-kick onto the post.
Just over two minutes later Guimaraes silenced the Stadium of Light as the Brazilian smashed into the top corner from outside the box.
Bukayo Saka's penalty sealed the victory with the final kick of the game after Sunderland defender Reinildo saw a second yellow card for taking down the England international.
Despite the victory Arteta was still seething after the game at the award of Sunderland's penalty for Ezri Konsa's pull on Dan Ballard.

Arsenal made it four wins from four in the Premier League with a hard-fought 2-0 win over Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. The Black Cats played a gritty, physical game, but the Gunners gave as good as they got, and battled to the win. With a massive ***** ist from David Raya saving a, uh, generously awarded penalty that would have made it 1-0 for the bad guys. Minutes later, Bruno Guimaraes put one top bins. Raya made another brilliant save later in the half. Deep in added time, Bruno put Bukayo Saka in on goal, earning a penalty and second yellow to Reinildo. Penalty converted. Game over.
The Sunderland crowd greeted Bruno with a chorus of boos when he replaced Myles Lewis-Skelly at halftime. They take their rivalry with Newcastle seriously. Unfortunately, it was very much a "keep booing, it only makes me stronger" moment. You could see from the little smile on Bruno's face that he was loving it and using it to fuel him. His "I can't hear you" celebration to the crowd after he'd put one on postage stamp was absolute perfection.
Great call from Mikel Arteta to pull Myles Lewis-Skelly at the break. Everything was off from him — poor touches, cheap fouls — it simply wasn't his night. The manager also had to swap Jurrien Timber for Ben White, who appeared to have tweaked his groin. Because when ***** nal get one right back healthy, the other gets injured. That's how it works. Timber was excellent, by the way.
The ***** nal subs that came on later in the second half, Eze, Merino, and Zubimendi, were mediocre to poor. The depth is tremendous but Mikel Arteta has his work cut out for him to keep everyone sharp so that when they are called into action they don't, say, give the ball away the only two times they get on it like Merino did today.
The Gunners could have and should have been ahead at halftime, but once again, they were profligate with scoring chances. Bukayo Saka was caught in two minds on a leaping volley and only managed glancing contact. Kai Havertz shot over the bar from in close. The German striker also forced a smart save with a brilliant control, turn, and volley move. Saka also flubbed two chances in the second half — he picked the wrong pass on a 4-on-2 break and he shot too close to the keeper. The side could do with a bit better finishing, but if you believe (as I generally do) that finishing ebbs and flows, as long as they keep generated the volume of chances, someone is in for a real hiding.

PAWTUCKET – Jim Fleming wasn't interested in capping his team's best drive of the day with a field goal.
A short kick would have meant the lead early in the fourth quarter at Centreville Bank Stadium, but the University of Rhode Island coach felt more was needed. The Rams hadn't come all the way out from their own 2 to settle.
Terrence Campbell smashed up the middle from 1 yard out, a touchdown that served as fuel for No. 8 URI over the final 15 minutes. What was a frustrating, tense start to this Coastal Athletic ***** ociation opener with Elon wound up a relatively comfortable victory.
The Rams forced five turnovers and finally found some offensive rhythm in the second half while posting a 31-10 triumph on brilliant Saturday afternoon, Sept. 12. That's now 16 straight for URI in home games, and this temporary residence while Meade Stadium undergoes its extensive renovation was christened properly.
"You were wondering what the heck was going on in the first half," Fleming said. "As is representative of this group, they continue to go ahead and find ways."

Borussia Dortmund entertain neighbors Paderborn on matchday 3. The hosts extended their perfect league start to the Bundesliga season with a narrow win over Villarreal in the Champions League. Meanwhile, Paderborn are yet to score on their return to the top-flight league.
Konstantinos Karetsas was discharged from the hospital after Tuesday's incident, but this game came too early for him. Ethan Nwaneri gets his first start in Niko Kovac's midfield for the Westphalian affair. Nico Schlotterbeck is also back in the lineup for the very first time.
Paderborn's striker Steffen Tigges starts on the bench in his return to his former club Dortmund. At the other end, goalkeeper Nahuel Noll hopes to continue his brilliant start to the campaign.
Here are the lineups as Borussia Dortmund aim to continue their perfect Bundesliga start.

After coming back to Santiago Bernabeu with heaps of promise and an excellent loan spell at Lyon, Endrick's season hasn't really unfolded the way he was hoping for.
The Brazilian international's progress has been slowed by injuries and a lack of game-time. The fact that Real Madrid have landed on a brilliant deal by signing Carlos Espi doesn't help things either.
All of these factors have led to question marks over Endrick's future, with AS Roma credited with interest in the forward in the upcoming January transfer window.
According to English commentator Feargal Brennan (h/t Defensa Central), Jose Mourinho could reconsider his position on Endrick's future when the winter market opens.

I have happy memories of this fixture because one of my three goals for Chelsea came against Hull City in the FA Cup.
Hull haven't conceded yet and they are the team I have been most wrong about so far this season.
With every passing week, they are putting more egg on my face but it can't keep happening, can it?
It probably can, but I am still going for Chelsea to win this. The Tigers have defended brilliantly so far, but they are not going to keep out Cole Palmer, Morgan Rogers and Joao Pedro.
Hull will defend ferociously but, as Chelsea showed in the Carabao Cup against Leeds on Wednesday, they have enough quality to play through teams who sit in; and, if they score first, then Hull will have to open up - that's my theory anyway.

Manuel Neuer is one of, if not, the greatest goalkeeper of all time. While he hasn't been the subject of much praise in recent months, we now have an opportunity to come and celebrate the legendary goalkeeper. This week after his start against Bodø/Glimt, Neuer became the oldest German player in the history of the Champions League.
He has now surpassed legendary German Jens Lehmann, who also played as a goalkeeper. It does seem to be goalkeepers breaking these records, but that doesn't take anything away from this accomplishment. Neuer's longevity is simply brilliant, no matter how much his performances have cooled down over the years.
At 40 years and 167 days, Manuel Neuer became the oldest German player in the history of the Champions League, overtaking Jens Lehmann pic.twitter.com/3QHaV1PMoM
While it is an opportunity to celebrate, some fans might take the opportunity to look at this a bit more skeptically. Is this an amazing accomplishment? Yes, but perhaps a world-class squad such as Bayern Munich should aim to have a different choice in goal, considering the club's starting goalkeeper is now over 40 years old.
Looking at other top clubs such as Real Madrid, ******* nal, and PSG, Neuer's age certainly does stand out in comparison to these club's goalkeepers. Food for thought.

Tigers news: AJ Hinch can't imagine a rookie as good as Kevin McGonigle appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
With only 15 games left for the Detroit Tigers in the 2026 MLB regular season, it's only a matter of time before they get mathematically eliminated from the postseason hunt. With a record of 68-79 even after taking a 6-2 victory over the Colorado Rockies on the road on Friday, they are 6.5 games back of the third and final Wild Card spot with six teams ahead of them in the standings.
Nonetheless, even with the Tigers poised to miss the postseason, it's difficult not to feel excited over their prospects of being a contending team in the near future. After all, they have quite the impressive position player core — with rookie Kevin McGonigle turning plenty of heads already despite being in just his first season in the big leagues.
McGonigle did go 0-4 on the night in the Tigers' win over the Rockies. But as a whole, he has been brilliant this season for the Tigers. He ended the night with an OPS of .788 to go along with 16 home runs and 62 runs batted in — being a consistent table-setter for Detroit. And manager AJ Hinch believes that he should be the runaway favorite to win the Rookie of the Year award.

Henry Winkler has always been the coolest, but now he's got seven devoted fans who can confirm that fact: His adoring grandchildren.
Winkler has seven grandchildren from his three kids, Jed, Zoe and Max. Speaking to PEOPLE at the This Is About Humanity event on Aug. 30, the actor revealed the advice he hopes to instill in his grandkids.
"There are lessons, like no matter how you learn, it has nothing to do with how brilliant you are," he said. "If they have a learning challenge, if school is difficult, if they're trying something and it's hard, that tenacity and gratitude are two of the roads to live your life down."

Leading members of the first-team ranks at La Liga's two headline clubs have secured for themselves respective places in the first Champions League Team of the Season.
This of course comes fresh off the opening round of fixtures in European football's premiere club competition being brought to a close on Thursday night.
Both Barcelona and Real Madrid managed opening day victories, the former at the expense of Feyenoord, and the latter Inter Milan.
Leading the way with a brace for Hansi Flick's Blaugrana was the in-form Raphinha, enough for the Brazilian to clinch a spot amongst the attackers in the Team of the Week.
For Real Madrid, meanwhile, it was a performance at the other end of the pitch which proved enough for a spot amongst UEFA's coveted XI, after Thibaut Courtois conjured up a whole host of brilliant saves to hold Inter at bay.

Martin O'Neill's side face Rangers in Sunday's Premier Sports Cup quarter-final, but there will be no travelling Celtic contingent at Ibrox.
It was confirmed last week that all SPFL meetings between the Glasgow rivals this season will be played without away supporters following disorder last term and the clubs' failure to reach an agreement over an allocation for this weekend's cup tie.
Former Celtic captain Brown believes the absence of away fans is stripping some of the passion and emotion from a fixture he relished during his playing career.
He said: "I understand why, but it's disappointing not to see the 8,000 fans that we used to get because the atmosphere was brilliant and there wasn't that much trouble back when I played.
"Going away from home you always want fans there because if you do score, you need somewhere to run. Celtic are going to score and they're going to run in front of Rangers fans.

Alongside last season's top two, only newly-promoted Hull remain unbeaten but their brilliant start faces an acid test against Xabi Alonso's free-scoring Chelsea.
At the other end of the table, Fulham have yet to register a point under Alvaro Arbeloa ahead of their tough trip to Liverpool.
AFP Sport looks at three talking points ahead of the weekend's action:

Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes produced a sensational performance to help the team to a 4-0 victory over Sabah FK in their Champions League opener.
Matheus Cunha broke the deadlock for United inside 27 minutes when he supplied a delicate finish to Patrick Dorgu's delivery.
Fernandes doubled United's advantage 15 minutes later, rounding off a brilliant team move, with Youri Tielemans registering the first **** ist of his Old Trafford career. Benjamin Sesko then rounded off the goalkeeper to make it 3-0 just before the break.
Lisandro Martínez pounced on a scramble inside the box to add a fourth in the second half, removing any lingering uncertainty about the outcome.

I feel like I spend half of my hours dreaming about the San Francisco offense these days. Of course, I spend the other half sweating in a panic.
This is life with fantasy football's most boom/bust depth chart. And we have plenty to be nervous about as the 49ers get ready for their Thursday night opener against the Rams, coming live from Australia, with several stars on the injury report.

The perks with San Francisco are obvious. Kyle Shanahan is a brilliant coach, Brock Purdy a plus quarterback and Christian McCaffrey, George Kittle and Mike Evans all look like Hall of Famers. Of course those last three vets are all back-nine players, too — McCaffrey enters his age-30 season, while it's an age-33 lap for Kittle and Evans.
Injury concerns come standard with all three. Kittle tore his Achilles in January. Evans was a limited player all summer, managing a groin injury. It's possible Kittle will have a slow open to the season, and Evans also has to be handled carefully, though I suspect he'll at least repay this summer draft cost.

Taylor Swift stepped out for another stylish date night with Travis Kelce in New York City. While her shimmering Stella McCartney dress grabbed attention, the singer's carefully chosen accessories completed the sophisticated look. From metallic Aquazzura heels to statement jewelry, every piece added to the polished ensemble for the evening outing.
Swift paired her metallic brown Stella McCartney Striped Silk-Blend Halter Neck Maxi Dress, priced at $2,800, with equally glamorous accessories. Most notably, she wore Aquazzura Twist 95 Sandals in gold, priced at $944. Crafted from metallic calf leather, the heels featured elegant knot detailing, an open-toe design, and sculpted high heels that perfectly complemented the shimmering gown.
She also carried the Stella McCartney Frayme Scale-Embossed Bucket Bag, valued at $1,595, in a rich chocolate brown shade. The structured handbag added texture to the outfit while coordinating beautifully with the earthy metallic tones of her dress.
Meanwhile, Swift elevated the look with luxurious jewelry. She wore Mindi Mond Imperial Citrine & Diamond Drop Earrings, worth $19,000, adding a vibrant golden sparkle beside her face. She also accessorized with the Elizabeth Taylor Darlene De Sedle 22K Gold & Opal Diamond bracelet and ring. Additionally, she wore her custom 8-carat antique Old Mine brilliant-cut diamond engagement ring and wedding band by Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry. Together, the heirloom-inspired pieces added timeless elegance.
Her beauty look remained classic. Swift styled her brown hair in soft, smooth waves with full bangs framing her face. In addition, she wore her iconic red lipstick, subtle eyeliner, and softly defined eye makeup. A natural, glowing complexion completed the refined evening appearance.

An exciting African star is ready to make his move to Liverpool.
The Reds are without a sporting director at the moment after Richard Hughes left the club. But it doesn't mean they are in disarray.
Behind him, Liverpool have a lot of experienced key decision makers when it comes to recruitment. Pedro Marques has done a brilliant job identifying young talent and bringing them to Anfield.
Meanwhile, Julian Ward and David Woodfine have been essential to the club's brilliant recruitment behind the scenes for many years now.
Liverpool may look to promote from within in order to fill Hughes' vacancy or they could look to bring in an external candidate.

Barcelona star Pedri has dismissed suggestions that he's not compatible with Rodri after Sunday's 5-0 win over Valencia.
The two Spain stars started the game at Mestalla and were part of a brilliant Barcelona performance that delivered a fourth straight La Liga win.
Pedri was asked for his thoughts afterwards and made it clear he's enjoying playing with Rodri at Barca.
"It has been said that we don't work together, but it's very comfortable playing with Rodri," he told Movistar.
"He hardly ever loses the ball and that helps a lot in defence. We're going to have a good understanding that will get even better with more and more games."

Defending champion Carlos Alcaraz posted his most convincing win so far, downing Tommy Paul in straight sets Sunday to reach the US Open quarter-finals, where two-time women's champion Aryna Sabalenka will meet Wimbledon winner Linda Noskova.
Second-seeded Alcaraz, playing his first tournament since he was sidelined by a right wrist injury in April, looked closer to his brilliant best in a 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 victory over Paul.
The 20th-seeded American posted the sternest test yet for Alcaraz, and he passed it with flying colors.
"I played my game," said Alcaraz, who unleashed 33 winners as he moved fluidly around the court in the two-hour 20-minute match.
"I tried to play my style," he said. "Tommy is such a talented player. His shots are pretty dangerous and sometimes it's really difficult to control the ball when it comes to you.

Sky Sports pundits Daniel Sturridge and Jamie Carragher have ruled Chelsea out of the Premier League **** le race after emphasising the "massive gulf" between the teams following the Blues' 2-1 defeat to **** nal.
Xabi Alonso's side were tipped to challenge the champions this season after a promising start to the new campaign that saw them win 3-2 and 4-3 against Fulham and Brighton in their opening two games, and they got off to the perfect start at the Emirates as Morgan Rogers opened the scoring within 90 seconds.
However, the Gunners dominated proceedings from there, with an equaliser ruled out before Kai Havertz fired past Emi Martinez to level it before half-time.
Martin Odegaard scored the winner as the Gunners maintained their 100% record (Reuters)
It was more of the same in the second half at the Emirates too, with the champions controlling the game and limiting Chelsea to very little in attack before Martin Odegaard finished a brilliant move to rifle in the winner.

Barcelona remain perfect to start the season and have won their fourth straight La Liga game to open up a three-point lead at the top of the table thanks to a dominant 5-0 win over Valencia at Mestalla on Sunday afternoon. The Blaugrana put on another attacking show and created over a dozen giant chances, and Lamine Yamal (twice), Raphinha, Fermín López and Pedri found the net to give the leaders three more points in spectacular fashion.
Barça played a fantastic opening period, establishing their dominance from the opening whistle and creating huge chances early and often against Valencia's low block.
Lamine Yamal scored a brilliant first goal and had a second disallowed for a very narrow offside, and came very close three other times. Fermín López also found the net with a powerful finish in the box, and almost scored a glorious solo goal but was denied by the keeper and the post.
The Catalans had a couple of scares at the back but Joan Garcia was up to the task with a couple of big saves. Barça were in control for the entire half, however, and dominated midfield thanks to Rodri, who was simply fantastic in the opening 45 minutes of his first start.
There was only one piece of bad news when a freak accident caused Eric Garcia to suffer a broken nose in a collision with Rodri in the box, but Barça were fully in control and had a deserved two-goal lead at the break.

Austin FC is at least keeping the end of its MLS season interesting.
For the second straight week, the Verde and Black pulled out points in the match's final moments, this time using Guilherme Biro's goal to earn a 1-1 draw Saturday with the San Jose Earthquakes at Q2 Stadium.
And while Austin FC is still five points out of the ninth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference with two months and 11 contests to go, it turned in another solid performance that indicates it should be in every match the rest of the way.
Here are four key takeaways from the contest as Austin FC (6-10-7, 25 points, 14th West) has a quick turnaround with a Wednesday home match against Colorado.
Credit has to be given to Brandon Vazquez and Christian Ramírez for their short passes in the box that eventually got the ball to him, but Biro was the one who put the ball past Earthquakes goalie Angus Gunn from a tough angle. Gunn had been brilliant most of the night, but in the sixth minute of stoppage time and one of the final kicks of the game, Biro came through in the clutch.

There are performances that deserve applause, and others for which even a standing ovation falls short. That was the level of the symphony Natalia Mauleón conducted on the field at Estadio Jalisco, leading and executing the red-and-white attack in the 0-4 win over Atlas in the Clásico Tapatío.
Wearing No. 14, the Michoacán native hit the ground running in the fold as a signing for this Apertura 2026. Mauleón had already shown glimpses of her quality in her first appearances, but what she did last night was simply extraordinary.
Starting as an attacking midfielder, she supported Alicia Cervantes and Denise Castro in the Rebaño's attack, with width provided by Joseline Montoya and Jasmine Casarez down the flanks. From that advanced midfield role, thanks to the peripheral vision with which she reads moments, ****** es, and movements, 'Mau' became the undisputed focal point of the match, as every Guadalajara goal went through her feet.
On the first goal, she orchestrated the high press by staying close to the ball at all times so that, after Eva González won it back, a quick touch on the reception opened the inside lane for 'Jas' to burst through and finish for the goal.
The second goal was just as brilliant: it was Natalia herself who once again started the press, winning the ball in the final third and creating a textbook 3-on-2 at the edge of the box. Patiently, she waited for Denise to drift wide before slipping the ball to her at the perfect moment, leaving her to bury it first time.

One star player is convinced he'll agree a move to Liverpool. This is despite completing a medical with one of the Reds' fierce rivals.
We were eager for Liverpool to sign a defensive midfielder this summer. That didn't happen, unfortunately, and now the middle of the pitch remains an incredible opportunity for opposing teams.
That's certainly the feeling coming out of the opening two games. Both Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest were able to counter almost at will through the middle. Liverpool simply didn't address it as a problem.
But it sounds as though they might. Or at least, they're hoping to and now a genuinely brilliant midfielder is convinced he can secure a move in January.
That's according to IndyKaila, who has been bang on the money for most things this summer. He reports exclusively that Lamine Camara is eager to move to Liverpool and is 'convinced' of a January transfer.

It's been a long, long 12 months for the Washington Commanders. An injury-plagued 2025 season saw the entire NFL world suddenly dismiss the Commanders' 2024 season and throw them back to the bottom of the barrel. That shift in support has put a rather large chip on the shoulders of the Commanders' roster.
Several players have said people will be surprised by the Commanders in 2026, but what kind of surprise are we getting? Are we getting the kind of surprise that restores faith in the organization, or are we getting the kind of surprise that Commanders fans are used to? ESPN's Dan Graziano named one surprise for all 32 NFL teams, and his surprise for Washington is not exactly the kind of surprise fans are hoping for.
Don't be surprised if ... quarterback Jayden Daniels struggles to regain his brilliant rookie-year form.
What I'm hearing: This isn't about Daniels himself. He's an absolutely awesome player, and ******* uming he can get through the season healthy, I expect him to perform at a high level. It's what's around him that has me concerned. He has a thin and aging group of wide receivers. He has question marks at running back. And the offensive line issues, especially with left tackle Laremy Tunsil going down with a training camp injury, are too significant to overlook.
Earlier in the offseason, I was high on the Commanders' chances to rebound and contend in the NFC East. But the concerns that arose during camp are giving me pause. The fact that they have a young, first-time offensive coordinator in David Blough adds to the mystery (as, to be fair, it does with the first-time OC in Philadelphia and the first-time defensive coordinator in Dallas). There could be significant growing pains early in the season, if not longer. And even if things work out better than they look right now, Daniels' 2024 rookie season was one of the best we've ever seen. Washington could be pretty good and still not bounce back to that level.
