The Arizona Cardinals will have a much different look in 2018. One of the new faces will be at quarterback, following the retirement of Carson Palmer. Palmer retired despite the efforts of star running back David Johnson, who missed most of 2017 with an injury.
Reports building up to Sunday’s AFC Championship Game have suggested that New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady may not be 100 percent. He missed Thursday’s practice with an injury to his throwing hand. But Jacksonville Jaguars Pro Bowler Malik Jackson is not buying it.
Joel Embiid was named as an All-Star Game starter on Thursday. The Philadelphia 76ers big man was, of course, thrilled to make his first team, and thanked the fans for helping to make it happen.
The New York Yankees vastly exceeded expectations in 2017, advancing to Game 7 of the ALCS in what was supposed to be a rebuilding year. That put the Bronx Bombers in the unfamiliar position of popular underdog. But with Giancarlo Stanton now in pinstripes, that’s changed. CC Sabathia likes it that way.
We have to give fans of the Jacksonville Jaguars this. Much like the team they cheer for, the fans are confident.

When Lane Kiffin and Florida Atlantic take the field in 2018, they’ll be doing so without 2017’s starting quarterback. Jason Driskel, who led the Owls on a 10-game winning streak to finish the year, announced his immediate retirement from football.
The Golden State Warriors did not end the first quarter of their game against the Chicago Bulls especially well. Stephen Curry turned the ball over and the Bulls took full advantage with David Nwaba dunking the ball home with 0.1 seconds left. What happened next was rather humorous.
The opening seconds of the Golden State Warriors game against the Chicago Bulls were marred by an injury. Golden State rookie Jordan Bell went up in an attempt block a dunk from Chicago’s Robin Lopez. As Bell came to the ground, he landed with all of his weight on his left leg.
It’s hard to imagine a scenario where the Jacksonville Jaguars would win the AFC Championship despite Rob Gronkowski putting up big numbers. If the Jags are going to win, they must find a way to contain Gronk. But according to Doug Marrone, containing the New England Patriots tight end is easier said than done.
