The Cincinnati Bengals’ 2025 schedule is out, and star quarterback Joe Burrow has some critiques. First and foremost appears to be what the NFL has done to his Thanksgiving.
On Nov. 27, the Bengals will travel to face the Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium. As Burrow noted to reporters on Tuesday, it will be the fourth consecutive time the Bengals’ annual road game against the Ravens is a night game.

Baltimore has won all three of the previous games and has not lost a prime-time home game since Week 17 of 2022. Burrow, who has never faced the Ravens at home in a prime-time regular-season game in his career, would like the Bengals to get a home prime-time game instead:
“Playing in Baltimore for the fourth straight prime-time year isn’t ideal. Maybe we could get one of those in Cincinnati next year. Please.
The Bengals’ home game against the Ravens this year is a day game in Week 15 on Dec. 14.
Either the Ravens or Bengals have won the AFC North in six of the last seven seasons, so it’s not a surprise the NFL has given them the prime-time treatment. Their last meeting was a true thriller, with the Ravens coming back to win 35-34 in an ending featuring a decent bit of controversy.

The Ravens’ Thanksgiving game is one of four prime-time games on the Bengals’ schedule for next year, but only one of them are at home. That would be their “Thursday Night Football” date against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Oct. 16. The Ravens will also play four prime-time games next year, two on the road and two at home.

Of course, there is one way in which the NFL schedule-makers, or at least the schedule system, were kind to the Bengals. They will travel the fewest miles of any team in the NFL next season with 8,753.
One way to increase that total travel would be an international game. Consider Burrow to be a vocal proponent of the Bengals playing overseas:
“Part of the reason I wanted to do the ‘Quarterback’ show is I wanted to grow the game internationally, so to not have a stage like that is a little disappointing. I feel like I’ve consciously worked hard to try to grow the game internationally over the last 18 months or so, so hopefully at some point in my career we can go over there.”
The Bengals are scheduled to kick off their season on Sep. 7 on the road against the Cleveland Browns. It will be a day game.

How Thunder’s historically great defense could end Western Conference finals before series really even begins
Imagn Images The Oklahoma City Thunder were the NBA's best team this season for a number of reasons, and for all the same reasons, they were the heavy betting favorite to win the championship entering their conference finals matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves. They have the almost certain MVP in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. They're almost unfairly deep in an era where it has become somewhere between difficult and outright impossible to adequately fund an effective middle and bottom part of a playoff rotation. They genuinely love playing not with each other, but for each other. They are versatile, well-coached and, evolutionarily, stationed smack dab in the deadly intersection of being a dominant team that still has to prove its dominance. These are the extremely strong bones of OKC's potential championship structure, but the foundation upon which the team with the best point […]

RAJNOCHŮV GLOSÁŘ: Slavia to Jablonci nepustila! Sparta padla na dno
"Hlavním zápasem předposledního kola ligy byl ten mezi Baníkem a Spartou (3:2). Sparta měla krátký čas, aby se po prohraném finále dala dohromady. Říká se, že vždy pomůže výměna trenéra, tým by to nějakým způsobem mělo nakopnout. Jak ale říkal Luboš Loučka, tým byl hodně zdecimovaný. Času bylo opravdu málo. A když v desáté minutě prohráváte 0:2, je to obrovsky těžké na psychiku. Sparta je aktuálně zkrátka v obrovské krizi a nefunguje to. Dá se říct, že spadla na dno. Utkání se snažila zdramatizovat ve druhé půli, což se jí i podařilo. Baník si to však zkušeně pohlídal. Pro tým z Letné je to další rána. Já ale přeju Lubošovi, už jen proto, že jsme kamarádi, aby to zvládl.Sestřih zápasu Baník - SpartaVideo: LFAJeště když se vrátím k odvolání trenéra Friise, chci zmínit jednu věc.

Vítima de boatos sobre ‘vida noturna’, Hércules, do Fluminense, busca consolidar volta por cima contra Aparecidense
Apesar da sensação de ter deixado dois pontos pelo caminho no empate com o Juventude, pelo Brasileirão, no domingo, o Fluminense teve um motivo para comemorar: o primeiro gol de Hércules com a camisa tricolor. Até então criticado pela torcida e vítima de boatos sobre “vida noturna”, o volante de 24 anos tem a chance de consolidar a volta por cima hoje diante da Aparecidense-GO, às 19h30, no Mané Garrincha, em Brasília, pelo jogo de volta da terceira fase da Copa do Brasil. Com 1 a 0 na ida, no Maracanã, o tricolor tem a vantagem do empate. Derrota por um gol leva a decisão da vaga para os pênaltis. Ao ser contratado junto ao Fortaleza por R$ 29 milhões, com vínculo até 2029, Hércules chegou sob grande expectativa. Com perfil introvertido fora de campo, teve dificuldades de adaptação no […]
