The Philadelphia Eagles travel south to Florida, facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a battle between two 2-1 teams on Sunday afternoon.
Find out why my Eagles vs. Buccaneers predictions are counting on Saquon Barkley to continue to star for the Birds in Tampa Bay in my best Week 4 NFL picks for Sunday, September 29th.
Eagles vs Buccaneers prediction
My best betSaquon Barkley Over 75.5 rushing yards (-120 at BetMGM)
My analysisThe Philadelphia Eagles went out this offseason and signed former New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley away from their division rival. That move has paid off early, as the star RB has racked up 351 yards on 63 carries (5.6 yards per carry) with four touchdowns to boot.
Barkley has consistently b…
The NFL's investigation into potential tampering by the Atlanta Falcons and Philadelphia Eagles is ongoing and will not be completed this week, the league said Tuesday. With the 2024 NFL Draft scheduled to begin Thursday, the league will not be docking either team draft picks — should it find one or both guilty of tampering — this year. The league confirmed in March that it was looking into the possibility of tampering by the teams prior to the start of free agency. The reviews focus on quarterback Kirk Cousins agreeing to a four-year, $180 million contract with the Falcons, and running back Saquon Barkley signing a three-year, $37.75 million deal with the Eagles. The Falcons said in a statement at the time that "due to the NFL's review, we are unable to provid…
With Chelsea’s porous defence perpetually under the microscope, it might be better for a Blues defender to be out of their team than in it. Perhaps that’s what Antonio Rüdiger reckons anyway, having been left out of Frank Lampard’s team for their opening three Premier League matches and having reaped the rewards in being instantly propelled on to the radar of other clubs who might give him a game. Tottenham are the latest suitors, according to our old chums “Sky Sources”, who add that he’d be unlikely to be allowed to leave on loan so Spurs might have to pony up for a permanent deal.

With recent events having reminded us of the need to tackle the climate emergency, this transfer window is doing its bit by constantly recycling rumours about the same players and the same putative moves. The latest compostable Frenkie de Jong story is that should the Barcelona midfielder move anywhere at all – and he wants to stay put – Bayern Munich or Chelsea, rather than longtime suitors Manchester United, would be his preferred destination. Spanish outlet Sport describes the serial Bundesliga champions as “a club that aspires to everything and a city with all the attractions”.
Talking of Barcelona and their oddly capacious transfer wallet, Xavi Hernández’s side could be bolstered by Tottenham’s Sergio Reguilón if they cann…
Sir Jim Ratcliffe says he needs to embark on a culture transformation at Manchester United because the club is not geared for success. The British billionaire’s 27.7% minority shareholding purchase was completed on Tuesday and he has set about making key appointments as part of a restructure.
Omar Berrada will join as chief executive in the summer from Manchester City and talks continue to bring the Newcastle sporting director, Dan Ashworth, and Southampton’s director of football, Jason Wilcox, into senior roles. A deputy chief executive is also wanted as Ratcliffe aims to make “world-class” appointments to help facilitate change on the pitch.

Every NFL season, players emerge that few people forecasted during the summer.It's a physical game, and injuries create opportunities—hello, Brock Purdy—and players need to take advantage when their chance comes.Other times, a player getting a larger role breaks out. Or perhaps it's a player finally living up to previous billing.A number of players are certain to break out this season, and here are 10 to keep an eye on:QB Will Levis, TitansThere will be no waiting in the wings this time. After replacing Ryan Tannehill last season, Levis passed for 1,808 yards, eight touchdowns and four interceptions. While his completion percentage was low (58.4 percent), he displayed big-time competitiveness. The Titans astutely got him with the first pick of the second round last season.QB…
It’s the first week of September, you know what that means! It’s time for AEW’s biggest show, All Out. Not only is it the biggest show they’ve ever run, or their most important, but it has a real chance to shift the wrestling world in a way we haven’t seen in a couple decades. AEW could very well be on the same plane as WWE, or adjacent to it, come the end of this show. So let’s not waste any time, Bryan. Let’s kick this pig! Women’s Casino Battle Royale credits: AEW Fels: Well, for one, with the rumors buzzing that AEW is going to bump up some of its debuts due to worries that future shows could be altered thanks to COVID and unvaccinated dummards, there’s every chance that Ruby Soho (FKA Ruby Riott) makes her first appearance here. AEW unveiling perhaps their biggest…

You know a roast/fundraiser is going to rule when one of the roasters is relegated to video-conferencing in because of a broken hip, like Jud Heathcote did last night for a Bobby Knight roast in Hammond, Ind. He said most people don't like Knight when they meet him. "But after they get to know him, they hate him." Oh snap. The roast, held to benefit Chicago's St. Joseph High School, featured such noted jokemeisters as Digger Phelps, Isiah Thomas and Jay Bilas. For one night, no one was debating Indiana's decision to fire him 10 years ago. This was a night of unity involving one of the most polarizing figures in the state and the game, one dominated by laughter and praise, and Knight wasn't discussing his former employer. Asked afterward about recent ef…
On Thursday, Sammy Watkins asked for the ball. It’s now Sunday, and the Bills have the beginnings of the dumbest quarterback controversy in the league. Here’s Watkins on Thursday, saying a perfectly normal thing for a receiver to say: “I need the ball at least 10 times — I need 10 targets — and l’ll be fine with however many yards I get,” Watkins told the newspaper. “And that’s what I addressed in talking with my agent. We reached out to a couple people and tried to pull some string like, ‘Hey, I need my targets. You came up to draft me and I’m not getting targets — that’s a problem.’ “’You’re making me look bad, and you’re making yourself look bad. Why not make both of us look good?’” The reaction was… predictable: The next day, Rex Rya…
