Steelers Ideal Offensive Coordinator Candidates Even though it’s only November, Pittsburgh Steelers Nation will tell you that when word spread that Matt Canada would be replaced, Santa Claus arrived a month early. It is a shame Canada could never really find a way to improve his offense throughout his tenure in Pittsburgh, but many would agree this move was long past overdue. This will leave the Steelers in a bit of an unfamiliar position, where it is the first time since 1941 that they’ve made an in-season coaching change. It’s unlikely a ton will change with the offensive system as…

The Big Ten East and path to the playoffs are at stake in Ohio State-Michigan. Iowa goes for 10th win at Nebraska The Big Ten East champion, provided it wins comfortably as a strong favorite against Iowa in the conference championship game the following week, will almost certainly earn a position in the College Football Playoff. Against the Buckeyes, Michigan has won two straight games, and the results weren’t close. Last week, the Wolverines faced Maryland in their closest game of the season, and Jim Harbaugh won’t be on the sidelines when he serves out his three-game suspension. After recovering…
J.J. McCarthy’s beef with Michigan’s sign-stealing scandal will sound funny to Ohio State football fans. MICHAEL Aaron, Michigan Not in the way you may expect, J.J. McCarthy sees unfairness in Michigan’s sign-stealing incident. The narratives around his Wolverines don’t align with the victories and honors they are accruing. In fact, his Wolverines appear to earn less credit the closer they go to winning a third consecutive Big Ten championship. McCarthy is adamant that Michigan deserves it and that the programs it has dominated over the past few seasons are just outclassed. He is offended, therefore, when critics bring up the…
NFL roundtable: Would Chargers’ Joey Bosa be the first to go? Rams roles changing by week. Watching the Chargers vs. Packers game from the sidelines on crutches, Joey Bosa hangs his head. He was carted off the field after suffering a right foot injury in the first quarter. The Chargers’ 23–20 road loss to the Green Bay Packers may have put an end to their hopes of making the playoffs.

Why the Phillies, who’ve changed so much, bet big on Aaron Nola, who’s changed so little? PHILADELPHIA — It began with an unexpected request to speak with the manager, as most big-league careers do. Aaron Nola was promoted to the majors from a hotel lobby in Rochester, N.Y., one Friday morning. The right-hander from Louisiana did not choose the Phillies. They selected him. That is the randomness of this whole thing—the idea that Nola could now spend more time with the Phillies than any pitcher ever in the franchise’s 140-year history. The Phillies had the seventh pick in the 2014 amateur draft.…
Diontae Johnson Physically Removed From Steelers Coach Pittsboro, PA Even though the offense has struggled this season, the elite wide receivers for the Pittsburgh Steelers haven’t held back when it comes to venting during or after games. Wide receiver Diontae Johnson had to be physically separated from a member of the coaching staff during Week 11’s game against the Cleveland Browns, during which quarterback Kenny Pickett threw for just 106 yards. Following the incident, Johnson spoke with head coach Mike Tomlin on the sidelines. Then there was Johnson, who was clearly furious on the sidelines on Sunday during…

Mailbox: Readers have opinions on Michigan football cheating and want Jim Harbaugh fired Brian, please: Jim Harbaugh’s plausible deniability is a farce because Pat Fitzgerald had to have known about the customary hazing at Northwestern, and Jim Tressel was aware that our players exchanged jerseys for tattoos. If UM is as ethical as they claim to be, his removal ought to happen shortly. . To the editor: It is a misuse of the legal system for Michigan to try to use the legal system as an excuse for not adhering to Big Ten Conference standards. The league has the right…
Reporter Notebook: Everton’s sense of injustice can inspire Premier League survival after points deduction Reporter Alan Myers of Sky Sports News discusses why Everton’s 10-point Premier League deduction would fuel a sense of injustice and wonders how the uncertainty surrounding the team will affect 777 Partners’ acquisition of the Toffees. Where does that leave the supporters, as Everton picks itself up after losing 10 points due to a violation of the Premier League’s profit and sustainability regulations? It is reasonable to state that the initial response is one of indignation, sadness, and inevitable outcome; nevertheless, it also…
