Bills Hold Breath On QB Allen's Elbow. New Sherriff In Indy. Another Weak NFL Sunday. The Spotlight Is On TCU. Nets Hire Right Guy. Break Up The Jazz! NJ/NYI Top Metro Division. College Hoops Is Back!
With baseball now complete, we can zero in on the fall & winter sports as I'll have all of the latest and greatest with what's happening through the landscape. On deck:
(3:25) As the second half of the NFL season approaches, Western New York is waiting with bated breath on the right elbow of Bills QB Josh Allen. It's uncertain if he'll start this Sunday against the Vikings as he suffered a UCL injury in the final moments vs. the Jets. What this could mean, not just for the AFC but for the rest of this season if he is compromised or, dare I say, unable to play because of it? I'll also get into the controversial hire in Indianapolis as Colts great Jeff Saturday, who has never coached on any level, succeeds Frank Reich as they try to get back to respectability. Then there's the Week 10 schedule which is nothing to write home about in an already abominable first half.
(21:26) A quiet week on the college football schedule is set for Saturday, except for one game. #4 ranked TCU visits #18 Texas in the biggest game for the school in ages. Will they continue to stay undefeated and keep themselves in the conversation for the College Football playoff?
(29:15) The Brooklyn Nets did the right thing by hiring interim coach, Jacque Vaughn on a full time basis. There would've been tremendous backlash if they were going to hire who many people thought was going to be the next coach in Ime Udoka. What is going on with the Utah Jazz as they've been by far the biggest surprise in the NBA to date. I'll take a look at some other surprises and disappointments (i.e. Warriors & Heat) as the first month of the season is almost in the books.
(39:57) Who would've thought both the Devils and Islanders are the top two teams in the Metropolitan Division at this point? I'll get into Evander Kane's gruesome injury, another return for Jack Eichel in Buffalo as his Golden Knights not only have an eight game winning streak, but have the best record in the sport. The Blues are in the midst of a similar streak but on the losing end. Is coach Craig Berube on the hot seat? I'll take a trip around the ice in the NHL to see what else is happening as one month of the season is completed.
(47:43) Don't look now, but college basketball is back. I'll go over who the top teams are in the country and break up the Hoyas, as Georgetown snapped its 21 game losing streak with a win over Coppin St.
