The Chiefs have bounced around from a 3- to a 3.5-point favorite on the NFL Week 2 odds board with a Week 2-high total of 51.

Colts quarterback Gardner Minshew hasn’t looked great lately, but head coach Shane Steichen does a good job of taking what the defense gives him, and the Buccaneers defense gets burned through the air. In fact, the Bucs are actually first in the …
The Kansas City Chiefs face the San Francisco 49ers tonight in Super Bowl 58. While it’s a rematch of Super Bowl 54, a lot has changed in four years — starting with the 49ers being led by quarterback Brock Purdy.
The “Mr. Irrelevant” of the 2022 NFL Draft, Purdy has become a star in San Francisco and was the MVP front-runner until he threw four picks against the Ravens in Week 16.
Purdy’s Super Bowl odds are expected to be a highly debated option in the NFL player props market. While he’s surrounded by game-changing weapons, an inexperienced signal-caller facing one of the league’s top defensive units still adds an element of uncertainty.
I break down the Brock Purdy odds and give my best NFL picks and predictions for how he’ll perform …

With under eight months until the 2022 World Cup gets underway in Qatar, 17 of the 32 participants are yet to be confirmed.
Familiar heavyweights like Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, France, England and Germany have already sealed their places, but some other significant names still have a question mark over their participation later this year.
We are at the play-off mark in the UEFA and CAF regions, while group stages head towards conclusions in the AFC, CONCACAF and CONMEBOL sections.
It is a crucial point of the season at club level, but players must temporarily move their minds to their national sides as it is make-or-break for some of those still competing in qualifiers at this late stage.
Here, Stats Perform runs through how qualifying is looking…
Bayer Leverkusen cruised to a 4-0 win over Feyenoord upon their return to the Champions League, but head coach Xabi Alonso said the result did not come easy.
Florian Wirtz s brace along with Alex Grimaldo s strike and Timon Wellenreuther s own-goal handed Leverkusen a comfortable advantage at the break.
The Bundesliga champions netted four goals in the first half of a game in a major European competition for just the third time after doing so twice in 1994 against PSV Eindhoven (4-2 HT) and GKS Katowice (4-0 HT).
Alonso s side also became the first away team to lead by four goals at half-time of a Champions League game since Bayern Munich led 4-0 at Viktoria Plzen in 2022.
Despite the scoreline suggesting a comfortable outing for Leverkusen, Alonso cred…
Pep Guardiola has clarified that he has not decided to leave Manchester City at the end of his contract in 2023, but confirmed he will take a break when his period at the club comes to an end.
Guardiola seemingly declared that he next two years would be his last at the Etihad Stadium this week when speaking at an XP Investimentos event. The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich coach spoke of his desire to coach a national team.
After seven years at this team, I think I m going to have to stop, he said. I m going to have to take a break, see what we ve done, and review inspirations.
And in the process, I would like to coach a national team – South American, European, playing a Copa America; I want to have that experience.
However, in a media confere…
MLS has altered its playoff format, introducing series for the first round similar to those seen in other American sports.
Like the NFL, the NBA, MLB and the NHL, MLS has always used a postseason format to decide its annual champions.
But from the coming season, which kicks off this weekend, it will follow in the footsteps of basketball, baseball and hockey with a further tweak.
For the first round of the playoffs – after the wild card matches – teams will play best-of-three series.
These will involve eight teams from each conference, including the winners of the wild card matches between the eighth and ninth seeds.
Again following the lead of the NBA, MLB and the NHL, every game in the series must have a winner, with penalties required if the…
Massimiliano Allegri says Juventus are a different beast to the one who stumbled in the Champions League final two years ago and he will accept nothing but victory against Real Madrid on Saturday.
As they will be in Cardiff, Juve sought a treble when they faced Barcelona in Berlin, but they were left dented by a 3-1 defeat.
Allegri freely admits that his side then had not reached the final out of expectation, but he says with a sixth straight Serie A title and the Coppa Italia in the bag that this year feels much different.
He told a news conference: In 2015 we got to the final but at the same time we were not strongly motivated, we were not confident enough because we had lots of years of struggle in the Champions League.
We certainly didn t end up in …
Middlesbrough announced they had sacked Gareth Southgate as manager on this day in 2009.
Southgate was appointed as Steve McClaren’s successor just weeks after captaining Boro in their UEFA Cup final defeat to Sevilla in 2006, his final match as a player.
The former England defender kept the club in the Premier League with 12th and 13th-placed finishes but Boro slipped into the second tier in 2009.
Southgate’s dismissal came just hours after the Teessiders ended a run of three successive home defeats with a 2-0 victory against Derby, which left them one point off the top of the Championship table.
In a statement released on the club website, chairman Steve Gibson said: “This has been the most difficult decision I have had to make in all the time I h…
