View episodeThe Houston Texans' defense won them the Wild Card game against the Chargers
That Texans defense, holy shit, did they bring it on Saturday? They were so goddamn good.

The Falcons may have the NFL's best skill-position group
I think that if the Falcons can do that, they have maybe the best set of skill position players in the NFL. If you're able to protect Penix, he's good enough to distribute it and then just let their awesome players do awesome shit.
MLB's proposed check-swing replay would make everything a check swing
Yeah. Parallel with the plate. Yeah. That's what I thought the rule was. And apparently that's just not the rule anymore. If they ever bring this system to Major League Baseball, I get—everything's a check swing.
