Nick Wright claims the Kansas City Chiefs played in a way that should have led to them losing against the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Kansas City Chiefs are yet to lose a game still since Patrick Mahomes returned and the season began. On Sunday, they took on the NFL's worst team at the moment, the Los Angeles Chargers, and secured a commanding 22-6 victory to take their record to 5-0.
LA's offensive woes continued and somehow got even worse during this game. Justin Herbert was unable to get anything going, so the Chiefs' mistakes also went unpunished. Giving his two cents on the game in the aftermath, **** yst Nick Wright was quick to point that out.
Kansas City's record may be perfect, but the team itself was quite far away from that against LA. Mahomes threw an interception and Kansas City also missed an extra point, to give some examples. At the NFL level, mistakes like this are usually punished.
Wright gave a full account of everything the Chiefs got wrong before going on to then also diss the Chargers. Considering how poor they have been, it is hard to disagree with his take.

Bengaluru: When batters are scoring at 11.46 runs an over, even quality bowling attacks can be made to look ordinary. India's T20I series against the West Indies has exposed the vulnerability of the hosts' pace unit, with flat pitches, dew and short boundaries proving a punishing combination for bowlers.
West Indies' stunning 250-run chase in Ranchi, completed with nine **** to spare, prompted a stern **** sment from India head coach Gautam Gambhir.
"These bowlers are our bowlers, not someone else's bowlers. Their careers are at stake," he had said, underlining the scrutiny facing the attack.
With the exception of Indore, where India successfully defended 223, the bowlers struggled to contain a fearless West Indies batting line-up. While the absence of Jasprit **** rah and, to an extent, Hardik Pandya has been felt, the bigger concern for the team management is the inconsistency shown by Arshdeep Singh, Mayank Yadav and Prince Yadav.
The two young quicks, Mayank and Prince, have alternated between brilliance and waywardness during the series, highlighting the challenges of adjusting to different match situations. The fourth T20I in Hyderabad offered a clear example. India conceded 18 extras, including 13 wides. Arshdeep accounted for six, while Mayank and Prince leaked two and one, respectively. Their attempts to execute wide yorkers and fuller deliveries repeatedly missed the mark, allowing the West Indies batters to maintain the pressure.
India's lack of proven T20 pace-bowling depth has consequently become a talking point. That has put renewed focus on the return of Bhuvneshwar **** ar, whose recall after nearly four years away from the national side could prove timely.
The experienced swing bowler has enjoyed a productive run in the IPL, taking 45 wickets across the last two seasons. More importantly, his success has been built on control and execution rather than sheer pace, qualities that India's younger quicks have often lacked in this series.
Conditions, however, have offered little respite to bowlers. High-scoring surfaces and heavy dew have meant that even small lapses have come at a significant cost.
As India prepare for a demanding tour of New Zealand, they know the challenges ahead will be very different. The pitches may offer more **** istance, but the key question remains whether the bowling group can quickly adapt and improve its consistency.
On the eve of the rain-affected series finale in Bengaluru, fast-bowling coach Morne Morkel urged observers to consider the physical and mental demands placed on modern cricketers.
"We sometimes forget that mental fatigue plays a big part. We have to manage that and be smart with it. Some of the players went for the Asian Games and then straight into a full series against the West Indies. These guys are also human," Morkel said.
"Execution and skills become better when you've recovered, slept well and mentally refreshed. That's a challenge. We're going to N

Gary Neville believes Manchester United's 1-1 draw at Leeds United on Sunday is a positive stride in the right direction.
United were on course for victory after Bryan Mbeumo put them ahead in the 35th minute.
The 27-year-old had failed to hit the target with a free header but quickly made amends by battling past James Justin to fire home Youri Tieleman's excellent pass.
Leeds came out much improved after the break and Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored the equaliser in the 51st minute.
Both teams had chances to win the game but neither could find the decisive finish as the points were shared.

James Attwood: I don't really see how. Sure, the Brewers are a smaller market than the Dodgers. They have a much smaller payroll. But, if anything, the Brewers advancing is only going to fuel the MLBPA to get even stickier about trying to control salaries in any way, shape, or form. Also, even though plenty of fans and pundits like to give MLB front offices a hard time about making stupid decisions, those offices are by and large, stacked with incredibly intelligent people. Those people are going to be able to take a step back and recognize that one season's playoff picture is hardly a sample size large enough to be called indicative of the sport moving forward. There were questions after Arizona went to the World Series in 2023 about whether or not MLB had done enough to create obstacles for Wild Card teams in the playoffs, all because Arizona steamrolled the Brewers and Dodgers. This year, pundits are calling for the entire seeding system to be blown up because there was a team with a .500 record that not only made the playoffs, but won their division outright. Single seasons may bring some oddities, but they are usually not indicative of the reality of the game's overall health.
I suspect, both the ownership side of things and the MLBPA have already drawn their battle lines and have already started crafting their arguments. This outcome in the playoffs will do more to feed the online debates between fans and pundits than it will do for or against the CBA negotiations.
C. Wesley Baier: I think it will impact the CBA negotiations, but how much is the real question. I would be shocked if the MLBPA didn't use this as evidence against a salary cal, but I cant say if it wil be all that successful of a tactic.
Spencer: Nope. Anything can happen in a small sample size. Owners are greedy and want to abuse their employees/customers for profit still. Players are greedy and only care about the uppermost tiers of earning power. Fans will quiet down a little, but fan opinion and outrage has never been a driving force for either side.

I'm living proof of the saying that "kids keep you young." My wife and I don't need social media. We've got multiple social barometers living in our house. But my usual reaction to every new trend or slang that enters their lexicon ("cooked" and "tuff" have been the new favorites) is skepticism. Before I try to figure out how much attention I need to put into what has them hyped, I try to figure out how serious they are about their enthusiasm.
Sunday's fantasy football action left me in a similar spot. We didn't get many massive box score performances from our stars. Instead, Week 6 was about our mid- and late-round picks or waiver-wire acquisitions. And with some giving us repeat results, the storylines coming out of Sunday should have us adjusting how we approach fantasy free agency on Tuesday.
Both Trevor Lawrence and C.J. Stroud were hooping all morning. They were the perfect pivot from whatever we had to watch on TNF. But as I was watching the Texans offense, a couple of things stood out.
what a throw from Stroud, too. pic.twitter.com/fz4EbOAKvT https://t.co/2MaTqWpPgd
First, Stroud's command of the offense was at an all-time high. Jacksonville came into the game with the 12th-highest pressure rate. Houston had a twofold response. It used an extra lineman on 35.6% of its plays (a season-high), and Stroud was getting rid of the football in 2.31 seconds (a season-low). The result was not only his lowest pressure rate (8.6%) but also his highest EPA per dropback (0.35). More importantly, the Jaguars' defensive measures, which included blitzing Stroud on 31.4% of his dropbacks, didn't stop him from throwing the ball.

Jessica Biel revealed that her 11-year-old son, Silas, is interested in both acting and music, just like his mom and dad, Justin Timberlake. The actress opened up about her family while attending the "Matchbox: The Movie" premiere in New York City on October 5.
Jessica Biel shares Silas has a small part in 'Matchbox' and is also a DJ. While speaking with E! News, Biel explained that Silas appears briefly at the very end of the Apple TV film, which premieres October 9. She called the cameo "really cute."
The interviewer asked whether her sons are following in her footsteps or are more musically inclined like Timberlake. Biel said Silas is "a little bit of both." "He's a DJ, so he's kind of interested in both lanes," she added. She shared that she and her husband are "letting him take his time and see what happens and what he really gets interested in."
Biel shares Silas and his younger brother, Phineas, with Timberlake. She said her sons visited the set and were excited to meet Cena, whom they consider a hero. Describing them as "so funny," Biel said their "brains implode" whenever they visit a set with "cool action sequences" and fight scenes.
Biel recalled that Phineas seemed to wonder, "Is this real? Is this not real?" after co-actor John Cena was punched and fell to the ground. She admitted she does not know what they are thinking, calling it "just a lot of confusion." Silas is more like, "I know what this is," she said, while Phineas is still wondering what is happening.

Interested in Texas Instruments Incorporated? Here are five stocks we like better.
Texas Instruments, Philip Morris International, and W.P. Carey all recently raised their dividends and offer yields ranging from roughly 2% to nearly 6%.
Although all three stocks show elevated trailing payout ratios, forward-looking estimates using future earnings or AFFO suggest their dividends are sustainable.
Each company's growth drivers differ, with Texas Instruments benefiting from chip demand, Philip Morris from smoke-free products, and W.P. Carey facing pressure from higher interest rates.
Texas Instruments (NASDAQ: TXN), Philip Morris International (NYSE: PM), and W.P. Carey (NYSE: WPC) are key names across semiconductors, tobacco, and real estate with strong dividend yields. These three names not only have yields between 2% and 6% but also just increased their payments. At first glance, their dividend sustainability looks questionable, with all three having elevated payout ratios. However, adjusting for future growth and using the appropriate payout metric shows that their dividends are on solid footing.

Denise Brown — the sister of the late Nicole Brown Simpson — opened up about the night before Nicole's 1994 murder, revealing that she witnessed O.J. Simpson stalking his ex while the siblings were having dinner together.
"I said all the wrong things to Nicole: 'You've got to leave him. You've got to get out of this situation. What are you doing?'" Denise, 69, told The Guardian on Monday, October 5. "That was not being supportive. I want people to get educated and be supportive, and I want victims to know they're not alone in this situation, and it's not their fault that this is happening to them."
Nicole began dating O.J. when she was just 18 years old, and he was 30. They tied the knot in February 1985, welcoming daughter Sydney that same year. Their son, Justin, was born in 1988. After years of domestic violence allegations, the pair divorced in February 1992.

According to Denise — who is preparing to release her new book, For My Sister Nicole — she and Nicole were out to dinner for a family celebration on June 11, 1994, when Nicole noticed the former Buffalo Bills star driving by.

Justin and Hailey Bieber's toddler son, Jack Blues, made a cameo in his father's pictures from the family's recent outing at a zoo. On October 3, the Canadian musician took to his official Instagram page to share a glimpse into his family life with his fans. This included pictures from his roaring-good adventures with his son.
Justin Bieber posted a new carousel of photos, bringing fans along for his adventures with son Jack Blues and their furry friends at the zoo. The cover photo captured Jack holding his dad's hand while they hung out with kangaroos. The Company crooner fed a baby kangaroo out of the palm of his other hand.
Bieber wore an off-white tee and white shorts, paired with a camouflage bucket hat and sporty sunglasses. Meanwhile, his son sported a ribbed white tank top and green shorts. The 12th slide showed Hailey Bieber holding her son in her arms as they fed a leaf to a giraffe. The Rhode founder wore a red baseball hat with her loose hair falling down her back. He captioned the photo dump with a single lip emoji.
In September, the 32-year-old shared adorable father-son moments on Instagram as the little one held onto his father's hand. He was wearing a green hoodie with relaxed trousers, while Jack Blues was dressed in a blue tee, denim, and a cerulean blue hat. In the caption, there was a single red heart.
The couple celebrated their son's second birthday on August 22. To celebrate the milestone, the runway star shared a carousel of photos featuring many sweet moments from the life of the family of three. She also included a clip of Jack Blues playing golf. He was wearing graphic-printed trousers and a matching full-sleeved tee as he swung the little golf club.

Kanye West is reportedly planning to seek help from Blake Lively to take revenge on Taylor Swift. West and Swift's feud dates back to 2009, when he grabbed the microphone from her as she accepted her award at the MTV VMAs. Although he later apologized, it seems the tension has not fully faded. The rapper is reportedly still determined to get back at the pop icon.
Kanye West is reportedly trying to get Blake Lively on board to seek "revenge" on Taylor Swift. For the unversed, at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2009, Swift won the award for Best Female Video. When she went onto the stage to accept the award, West unexpectedly stormed the stage. He took the microphone from her hands. On stage, he said that he believed Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time.
The two later reconciled, but in 2016, West took another dig at Swift. He released the song, "Famous," which featured controversial lyrics about the "Opalite" hitmaker. Years later, it seems the feud is not over, as Star reports that the rapper is seeking revenge on her. The report says that he also wants Lively to help him with his plan.
A source said, "He genuinely believes that Blake's going to see this as an opportunity that's too good to pass up." However, it's not that easy to contact the Gossip Girl star. Hence, the "All Falls Down" hitmaker has reportedly been trying to contact people in her circle so that he can get in touch with her.
Even though Lively and Swift were once best friends, the two have reportedly fallen apart. This happened after Swift's name came up in the legal battle involving Lively and Justin Baldoni. West allegedly believes that since Lively has fallen out with Swift, she may be willing to help him with his plan.

Justin Bieber is sharing another rare glimpse of his baby boy.
The "Daisies" singer, 32, brought fans along for a recent family outing with his wife, Hailey Bieber, featuring two sweet (albeit faceless) cameos from their 2-year-old son, Jack Blues. Bieber took to Instagram on Oct. 3 with a carousel of photos showing him and the toddler visiting some furry friends during their outdoor adventure.
In one photo, baby Jack holds his dad's hand while hanging out with kangaroos; another shows him reaching to offer a leafy snack to a giraffe with his runway-star mom, 29.
The two-time Grammy winner wore a white T-shirt, camouflage bucket hat and dark sunglasses for their family time, with the toddler sporting a white tank top and white-striped green track pants.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard's partner, Ken Urker, has died at the age of 34, a Louisiana sheriff said.
An investigation into his death is underway. Capt. Brennan Matherne of the Lafourche Parish Sheriff's Office told CBS News that there are no signs of foul play. TMZ was first to report the news.
According to police records, Gypsy Rose Blanchard's half-brother and his wife, Dylan and Anita Blanchard, went to Urker's home and attempted to gain access to it. After failing to do so, Anita called the Lafourche Parish Sheriff's Office and requested a wellness check. She said that Urker was in a "dark place," owned a gun and had threatened suicide, according to the records. Officers were dispatched to the home around 6:15 p.m. on Thursday.
Anita told police that Dylan had knocked at the home's door for an hour with no response. Police said Dylan and another person, Justin Daigle, were eventually able to enter the home through an unlocked bedroom window. Daigle said that he touched Urker's body and realized he was cold and not breathing.
When police arrived on the scene, they found Urker dead in his bed. He "appeared to have been there for an extended period of time," police noted, with the report mentioning his face and arms had turned blue.

Exodus Movement, Inc. (NYSEAMERICAN:EXOD) reported on September 11 that August payment-processing gross transaction volume reached $356.8 million, up from $338.0 million in July. Monthly active cards declined to 757,900 from 783,600.
Separately, Web3 exchange-provider processed volume increased to $376.8 million from $314.8 million, while reported monthly active users remained at 1.4 million. The figures show stronger transaction activity alongside fewer active cards and a stable reported user count.
The question is whether that activity produces enough revenue to improve profitability while Exodus Movement, Inc. (NYSEAMERICAN:EXOD) integrates Monavate and reduces costs.
Payment growth persists after adjusting for currency translation. Exodus Movement, Inc. (NYSEAMERICAN:EXOD) converted sterling payment volumes into dollars using average rates of $1.35 per pound for August and $1.34 for July. Reversing those conversions implies approximately 4.8% growth in underlying sterling volume, compared with 5.6% in reported dollars. Both calculations use rounded disclosed figures.
Web3 exchange-provider volume increased approximately 19.7%. XO Swap partners contributed 23% of volume in both months. The unchanged reported share suggests both the partner channel and the remaining business contributed to growth.

After the Federal Reserve's September 2026 meeting, it raised interest rates by 25 basis points. See how that might impact the cost of your student loans.
One of the Federal Reserve's main goals is to keep inflation under control. It does this partly by adjusting the federal funds rate — the rate banks charge one another for short-term loans.

Meta Platforms (META) stock is riding a near 20% rally this month with shares boosted by optimism about its Muse AI agent app and, more recently, custom chips. The next test for Meta's rally comes next week.
Meta is hosting its annual Connect developer conference starting Wednesday. Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg typically uses the event to preview the company's slate of application updates and new hardware. Last year's event focused on Meta's Ray-Ban Display smart glasses.
But Meta has been plenty busy ahead of the big conference at its Menlo Park, Calif., headquarters. Its recent rally was kick-started by the release of its Muse AI agent application earlier this month. The application quickly climbed toward the top of the download charts.
Earlier this week, Meta launched a new subscription service called Meta One. Subscribers get access to bonus features across Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp, starting at $2.99 per month. Meta also detailed to Bloomberg how it plans to deploy custom AI computing chips in it data centers starting next year.
With all of that, BofA ****** yst Justin Post wondered what's left to excite investors next week.

Rookie defensive back Mansoor Delane is questionable to return to the Kansas City Chiefs' Week 1 matchup against the Denver Broncos on 'Monday Night Football' after sustaining a shoulder injury in the first quarter of the primetime tilt.
Delane joined Kansas City as the No. 6 overall pick in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft and recorded his first career interception in front of a national audience on the game's first drive, which gave the Chiefs an early advantage over Denver.
The Chiefs shared an official update on Delane's status in a post to their official Twitter account:
While it remains unclear if Delane will be able to return to the field in Week 1, Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is already adjusting his scheme to account for the former LSU Tiger's absence.
Stay tuned to find out if Delane's absence will prove to be temporary, or if the rookie defender will need to miss games due to his shoulder injury.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The New Orleans Saints are moving on to Week 2 sounding more emboldened than disappointed by their season-opening loss to Detroit.
"We're in a good place," Saints veteran safety Justin Reid said Monday, a day after the 31-30 overtime loss to the Lions. "When we click on all cylinders, it's evident what we can do."
After erasing a three-touchdown deficit in the second half, the Saints matched the Lions' touchdown in overtime and tried to win the game with a 2-point conversion that failed when second-year quarterback Tyler Shough's pass fell incomplete.
"A lot of teams would have folded," Reid said. "That's not the way that we're built."
Second-year coach Kellen Moore said the Saints "get to learn a lot from that game."

The Kansas City Chiefs have released their list of inactive players for the season opener of "Monday Night Football" against the Denver Broncos.
The Chiefs will play without safety Chamarri Conner (knee), offensive tackles Josh Simmons (back) and Diego Pounds, defensive tackle Bryson Eason, tight end Jared Wiley and defensive end Jack Pyburn. Rookie Garrett Nussmeier has been designated as Kansas City's emergency quarterback — meaning he is only eligible to enter the game should both starter Patrick Mahomes and backup Justin Fields leave with injuries.
This appears to be the first time Kansas City has named an emergency quarterback since the rule was created in 2023.
Kansas City had already ruled Conner and Simmons out on the final injury report. Defensive tackle Chris Jones was held out of the team's final practice with a calf issue, but he was not given an injury game status. As expected, Jones is active for the contest.
On Monday, Kansas City elevated practice squad defensive tackle Marcus Harris and fullback Ben VanSumeren to the active roster. As elevated players, they will automatically be returned to the team's practice squad after the game. Both are active for the contest.

The Seattle Seahawks are 1-0, so it's time to start scouting their next opponent.
The Arizona Cardinals shocked the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1 with a 26-14 win in which Mike LaFleur became the franchise's first non-interim head coach to win their first game in charge. The matchup was projected as one of the opening week's most lopsided in favor of Jim Harbaugh and Los Angeles, who were coming off an 11-6 record in 2025. Los Angeles made the playoffs and lost to the eventual AFC champion New England Patriots in the Wild Card round, albeit without either of their starting offensive tackles—Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt—who were both expected to boost the offense upon their return this season. Arizona's defense had other ideas, and became one of the biggest surprises of any unit across Week 1's Sunday slate, while their offense simply looked more talented and outplayed LA with complementary football. That's what the Seahawks will be looking for in Week 2.
The Cardinals defense played with an energy that stifled Justin Herbert and new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, who only held the ball for 51 plays and 22:29. Arizona ran 21 more plays and had the ball for 15:02 more of the game (more than an entire quarter?!) When watching this game, the attitude from Arizona's defense seemed to disregard the stature of its opponent. LaFleur retained defensive coordinator Nick Rallis, who Phoenix-based sports radio host John Gambadoro credits for helping set the temperature.
It's easy to see Rallis' results. The intensity of the defense that showed up on tape is just as evident on paper. His Cardinals defense ranks second to last in blitz rate so far this season, yet they held McDaniel and Herbert to a measly 2-for-8 on third downs and 0-for-3 on fourth downs. Their front seven was far more formidable than the Chargers on the day, producing 17 pressures on 55 snaps while LA could only muster 12 on 75 opportunities. On the flipside, the Cardinals' offensive line has been projected as their downfall this season. The Seahawks have a clear opportunity to establish their presence as a physically dominant team if they kill the Cardinals momentum. This will be the game for elite run blockers like AJ Barner and run stoppers like Uchenna Nwosu to put the new age film community on watch.
Offensive talent is far from the problem in Arizona. Trey McBride is the best tight end in football. They've got two running backs in Jeremiyah Love and Tyler Allgeier who can both be a problem for any team. Marvin Harrison Jr. was a matchup nightmare against the Seahawks last season. In Week 3, he had one of the best battles against Devon Witherspoon and Riq Woolen of any wide receiver all year. When partnered with a seasoned veteran quarterback with a quick release, they were able to make life easy on their OL. Jacoby Brissett looked like at least an average starting QB, completing 27/37 passes for a respectable 73.0% completion rate while taking only 1 sack on 39 dropbacks. Loo

Hyrox, the popular indoor fitness competition, is adjusting its policies and procedures after a world champion was allowed to continue at a competition in China last weekend despite suffering fecal incontinence.
Joanna Wietrzyk was competing in the age 16-24 elite event in Beijing on Saturday when she suddenly became ill. But despite fecal matter running down her legs, Wietrzyk was allowed to keep competing. The Australian continued on and ended up winning the race in a time of 1:01.23.
But in the days since, Hyrox has received heavy criticism for allowing Wietrzyk to continue competing despite the potential health risks. The company said that, despite having "clear biocontaminant and medical procedures in place," the situation "blurred" protocols and created "ambiguity in how they were applied and understood."
"I apologize to all that were directly or indirectly affected, as well as to everyone who felt like we did not handle the situation like we should have," Hyrox co-founder Moritz Furste said in a statement. "Hyrox made a mistake by not reacting immediately during the race. In the end, it is my job to foresee these potential incidents — and I did not.
"Of course, we started improving event processes, plus making rulebook changes immediately. As of this moment, there are new rules and procedures in place to prevent situations like this from happening again."

Even though the Missions began Sunday on a seven-game losing streak, the team found a way to close out the 2026 season on a high note.
The Missions defeated the Amarillo Sod Poodles, 11-10, in their final game of the 2026 season.
"It was a nice win to wrap up the season," Missions manager Chris Tremie said.
Kerrington Cross recorded his first Double-A home run to put the Missions up 2-0 in the first inning. Justin DeCriscio also hit his first home run at the Double-A level to give San Antonio a 11-5 lead in the eighth inning. Missions reliever Carlos Medina allowed two runs in the ninth inning, but a line out to third base sealed the win for San Antonio.
The Missions finished the second half of the season with a 28-41 record. Overall, San Antonio went 59-79 in the entire 2026 season. The Missions last reached the postseason in 2023.

We're almost into Week 2 of the 2026 NFL season and got our first taste of fantasy football. There's plenty of turnover at the kicker position throughout the season. Chances are you're going to be sifting through the options off the waiver wire on a week-to-week basis if you don't have a solid option. Here, we'll go over Justin Boone's favorite kickers to stream for Week 2 based off what's in his big waiver wire column.

Leeds and Newcastle both entered tonight's Premier League clash at Elland Road with unbeaten records and for the opening half hour, there was nothing between the sides.
That all changed in the ****** e of little more than two minutes as the hosts took charge.
Daniel Farke's side's opener came with a huge slice of luck as Ao Tanaka's effort took two deflections and ended up in the back of the net.
There was nothing fortunate about their second goal, Dominic Calvert-Lewin powering home a fine header from an even better James Justin cross.
Here's the goal for UK and Irish viewers!
