Deflategate officially comes to an end right when Patriots need Tom Brady the most
FOXBOROUGH, MA — In the dank and drear of an autumn Sunday, the NFL’s longest-running absurdist drama finally played out its last act. Next Sunday, Tom Brady will be back playing quarterback for the New England Patriots, having served his four-game suspension for whatever it was that Roger Goodell thinks Brady did with the footballs almost two years ago now. (Like any obscure medieval war, the Deflategate saga has gone on so long that nobody remembers what the original fuss was about.) ..>> view originalLe'Veon Bell wasted no time reminding everyone how damn good he is
Updated at 7:31 a.m. ET PITTSBURGH — Eleven months ago, Le'Veon Bell destroyed his knee. More accurately, Vontaze Burfict destroyed Bell's knee; it was Burfict who, in a Nov. 1 game at Heinz Field between Pittsburgh and Cincinnati, awkwardly dragged Bell to the turf, shredded his right MCL and PCL and ended his season in Week 8.

Getty ImagesThere was nothing specific about Bill Belichick’s postgame press conference following his first shutout loss as coach of the Patriots that merits a headline or a stand-alone post. But, generally, the whole thing was classic Belichick. So here it is, in full and as circulated by the team. We hope you enjoy reading it more than Belichick enjoyed creating it.

PITTSBURGH (AP) The Kansas City Chiefs, impressive one week ago against the New York Jets, couldn't sustain the momentum against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Chiefs forced eight turnovers during a win against the Jets, but were unable to build on it against a Steelers' team that suffered its worst loss in 27 years last week at Philadelphia. The return of All-Pro running back Jamaal Charles didn't help as the Chiefs' offense sputtered and committed two costly early turnovers while Steelers..>> view originalMonday Musings: The reason behind Matt Ryan's turnaround and why the Falcons are 3-1
