Is there a chance that, at age-34, Willson Contreras gets even better next year? As a right-handed hitter who pulls the ball in the air in left field, he’s going to the perfect ballpark. And there is very recent history of a righty coming from St. Louis to Boston and immediately improving in a statistical sense.

The New England Patriots are back. After three straight years of losing records and missing the playoffs, the Patriots are back to being one of the best teams in the NFL.

Maye is only 23 years old, but the Patriots look like legit Super Bowl contenders and could be on the brink of another dynasty. On Monday’s episode…

On Monday, Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh announced that quarterback Justin Herbert will not start in Denver. Instead, it’ll be Trey Lance under center for a Los Angeles squad that already clinched a playoff spot. Harbaugh added that other…

Over his 23-year career, Tom Brady had one game with 20 or more passes and fewer than three incompletions. Drake Maye now has two. That’s how close Maye was to perfection against the Jets, the 28th start of his booming, beautiful career. By the Brady standard, the eye test and QBR — an evolved version of passer rating that, since its inception in 2006, had never measured a game as good as this one — Sunday was one to remember. The only person capable of stopping Maye was Mike Vrabel, who pulled him after six straight touchdown drives. Of course,…
