Case and point, Trent Brown’s Instagram page. It was noted on Tuesday that Brown, the Patriots’ starting left tackle, had liked a rather unusual post with his account. Specifically, it was an ESPN graphic in which Bill Barnwell stated that New England should pursue Tom Brady or Jimmy Garoppolo at quarterback during the 2022 NFL offseason. Some will note that Brown has played with both Brady and Garoppolo before, so he could just be supporting each ahead of big free-agent decisions....

New England and Denver enter this weekend’s conference championships for a matchup everyone’s been waiting for: Tom Brady against Peyton Manning. Well, sort of. It won’t be the same as before, given Manning’s current form and the plethora of injuries the Patriots have had this season. Following their 27-20 home victory over the Chiefs last week, a performance that featured the return of TE Rob Gronkowski, New England is a 3-point favorite this weekend, with the total set at 44....

With 13 unrestricted free agents, including six 2016 starters, Patriots brass will be busy this offseason deciding who should stay and who should go. As recent history shows, the Patriots are not shy when it comes to saying goodbye to their stars in free agency or via a trade. Just ask Darrelle Revis, Vince Wilfork, Jamie Collins, Chandler Jones or Logan Mankins. The nice thing is they have $65 million in cap space to figure it out and try to be first team to pull off a Super Bowl repeat since, well, the Patriots in 2005....

Gupte, the owner and general manager of Spice Fusion in Kent, England, initiated a special offer to patrons that started on March 7 and is continuing every Monday: Groups of four or more dine-in individuals would receive a 20 percent discount on their bills.

Lucas announced the news of his exit in a statement posted to Instagram on Tuesday. The presenter described his time on the show as a “delicious experience,” but said it had become too difficult to juggle with his other engagements, including working as a host on Fantasy Football League. “So, after three series and 51 episodes, I am cheerfully passing the baguette on to someone else,” Lucas wrote in part....

Why? The straight answer is that Scholesy’s son Arron plays for the team and the team was short on senior players for the game against Stockport Georgians. “We had eight or nine of our senior players missing and Paul said he’d be happy to help out if we were ever short as his son Arron plays for us,” said Mark Howard, manager of Royton Town. And Scholesy did just that!...

That's basically what happened Thursday, when Datsyuk was asked about Russia's anti-gay laws -- specifically, the fact that pole vaulter Yelena Isinbayeva strongly supports them, and that they're horrifying. The law, passed in June, bans "propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations." Another way of putting it: it's now criminal to argue for tolerance and educate children on LGBT issues. It doesn't stop there. From the New York Times on Aug. 11: Few gay people in Russia openly acknowledge their sexual orientation, and those who do are often harassed....

Arsenal must be kicking themselves over Gnabry The Bundesliga side appointed the coach to replace Thomas Tuchel at the helm of the first team after he guided Ajax to the Europa League final. The former Feyenoord player has spoken repeatedly about his admiration of Manchester City boss Guardiola as well as Cruyff’s late father, Johan, and is a proponent of attacking football. Having worked with him for a brief spell at Maccabi Tel Aviv in early 2016, Cruyff revealed his impression of the 54-year-old and believes he has chosen the right club in Dortmund....

The Icon teamed up with his protege, Darby Allin, to battle it out against FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) at the New York show. As has been the case with Sting’s performances in AEW so far, he once again impressed fans, as much as even a WWE-contracted talent like McAfee took notice. Though the former footballer didn’t directly mention Sting in his tweet, he shared a picture of the veteran’s performer’s age and date of birth....

The humorous footage, which was shared to the app by an account called Dgoxhody, shows a tiny spaniel puppy sitting on a carpeted floor. A hand then reaches into the shot and pours a line of dog treats out in front of the pup, who looks at his owner perplexed. However, the well-trained little pup remarkably does not move an inch.

The Patriots keep Brady, and they keep winning. The idea is that with the restructures (like three years ago) and extensions (like Monday’s reported deal), the team has money to get players, keep them and help Brady help them. Except … three years ago, it didn’t turn out that way. Keep that in mind as talk grows of the young Patriots whose own contracts are coming up.

New England came to the Meadowlands with an undefeated record, just as the Patriots did in 2007, albeit at 8-0 this time rather than 15-0. A game as good as any of the previous meetings between the teams once again came right down to the wire, with Stephen Gostkowski hitting a 54-yard field goal with one second left to seal the 27-26 victory and maintain New England’s perfect record....
