Sunday’s meeting between the Washington Commanders and New York Jets at the Meadowlands will pit the league’s worst offense, the Jets — who sit as a 3-point favorite in NFL odds — vs. the league’s worst defense in the Commanders. 

With Sam Howell getting the nod to start, should bettors be looking to fade his passing total in a game where that the QB doesn’t play four quarters after Jacoby Brissett’s performance in Week 15?

Thomas Tuchel has said he hopes dropping Andreas Christensen will convince the centre-back to extend his contract at Chelsea.

Christensen’s contract runs out at the end of the season and his Chelsea future is in doubt after negotiations over an extension hit a stumbling block. The European champions thought that an agreement on a four-year deal with a one-year option was close to being agreed, only for discussions regarding the length and terms of the contract to reach an impasse.

Chelsea recently returned with the offer of a three-year deal, which they believed that Christensen would sign, but frustration is growing after talks stalled again. The Denmark international has not featured for Chelsea since 6 November…

Lyon are determined to resist Chelsea’s interest in signing Rayan Cherki despite speculation that their owner, John Textor, may have to sell players this summer to balance the books. Chelsea are understood to have already sounded out Textor over his willingness to part with the France Under-21 forward, who is a product of Lyon’s celebrated youth system.

Cherki has been earmarked as a replacement for Christian Pulisic, who is completing his move to Milan for €22m (£18.8m) having arrived in Italy on Wednesday for his medical. However, Lyon want to keep the 19-year-old who was part of the France squad at the Under-21 European Championships. This is despite the announcement this month that the club’s transfer activity and wage bill will…

Contrary to the popular opinion concerning blogs, we consider ourselves pretty nice guys. We mean well for humanity, pet puppies, occasionally give change to the homeless, say please and thank you, all that. But there's still this mindset that blogs are somehow mean. Therefore, we're looking inward and starting a sporadic feature called "Deadspin Moral Quandary." It will look at issues involving moral issues in the sports world, from both sides, and try to determine which side is right, and which is wrong.

So we heard word the other day that SI.com had been preparing a mention of our friends at Kissing Suzy Kolber, basically mention…

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Martavis Bryant has been hit with a one year suspension for missing multiple drug tests. Bryant had previously tested positive for marijuana, which earned him a four-game suspension in 2015, and is reportedly set to check into rehab. Bryant’s agent told that his client’s continued marijuana use is a “coping issue” and a “depression issue.” So it was a little strange to see Steelers GM Kevin Colbert release the following statement: “Discipline” is an odd word to invoke when talking about a guy who, according to his agent, is dealing with depression and has a real dependency on marijuana. These are medical and mental health issues, being talked about in basically the same terms you’d apply to keeping the pads level or the gap closed, as…
