Maye is obviously at the top of the list after setting a franchise record for completion percentage (72.0) and also leading the entire NFL in both yards per attempt and QB rating, but it's been impossible not to notice the impact of Marcus Jones on the Patriots' other two phases: defense and special teams. Jones finished tied for the league in yards per punt return, averaging a career-high 17.3 yards while taking two of his 21 attempts to the house for touchdowns.

Some people hit the slots, the tables, the apps, spend what they can spend, and go home - or put the phone down. Not me. I'd wake up early in the morning, and the first thing I'd do was bet. I'd stay up late and bet. All day. All night. I had insomnia, so if I woke up in the middle of the night, phone next to the bed, I'd bet. Any little money I had, it was going straight to FanDuel.

But she did make it easy for us this week, with a big, anecdote-rich ESPN story, written with ESPN Raiders reporter Ryan McFadden, on the unusually complicated, surprisingly novel, extremely predictable carnage in the Las Vegas Raiders front office, and sideline, and owner's suite, and I guess also in the offensive line meeting room. Just having to do with the Raiders in general. I suppose one could just write "it is a story about the Raiders" here, in retrospect.

The spectacular one-handed catch looked like the kind of play that could only be made with sudden adjustment. A reaction with no thought or practice required. But that's not how it went down for Rams star receiver Puka Nacua. Nacua's fourth-down touchdown catch against the Arizona Cardinals in the regular-season season finale had its roots in a conversation with quarterback Matthew Stafford.

SANTA CLARA - The 49ers' plan at wide receiver this season was draped in maroon and gold. The Niners were supposed to ride into this postseason on the backs of two Arizona State products, a Tempe two-step atop the wide receiver depth chart designed to torment defensive coordinators from Seattle to Philadelphia. Brandon Aiyuk (Arizona State 2018-19) was the established star, the alpha, the $30-million man.

"Anything has to be worked for. You can't just walk into a room and expect the blessings to flow," Stout said Wednesday. "That's the biggest thing I learned being young: you have to work for everything if you want to be blessed by it."

"I had 23 quarterbacks on the ground that year," Allen said. "And they took it from me."

The club is aware of the allegations on social media and is in communication with the National Football League,

Less than six months ago, he and his wife and co-owner, Dee, spoke to local reporters at the onset of training camp, and Jimmy said he remained "very supportive" of both Stefanski and general manager Andrew Berry.

The machine he was operating on his ranch caught fire, and although he managed to get out, it was not before sustaining severe burns on his body in the process. He was able to get to one of his workers on the ranch who drove him to a local hospital. He was then care-flighted to Austin, where he remains in critical but stable condition.

SANTA CLARA Linebacker Eric Kendricks will be new to the 49ers' starting lineup come Sunday's wild-card playoff game at Philadelphia. The footsteps he follows are not new to him. There's a standard that's upheld in this room, Kendricks said Wednesday. This organization has always had good linebackers, as far as I'm concerned, so I don't plan on it being any different. That history includes the surnames Hazeltine, Wilcox, Turner, Norton, Woodall, Willis, Bowman, Warner, Greenlaw and many more.

The NFL averaged 18.7 million viewers per game during the regular season, the second-highest since audience averages began being kept in 1988. The per-game average on TV and digital platforms was a 10% increase from last season's 17.5 million and up 7% from 2023, according to the league and Nielsen. It also was just off the record average of 19 million, which was set in 1989.
