Tennessee 0, San Diego 17. And it's not really as close as the score would indicate. Kerry Collins and Vince Young have booth seen time at quarterback, and honestly, the Titans might be better off just playing without a quarterback. Lure Eric Crouch out of retirement, and run the option. New England 10, NY Jets 0. To be honest, I don't know what the hell's been going on in this game. The Eagles/Giants game lasted about 8 and a half hours, and this one just came on. It seems like every time I look up, though, either Corey Dillon or Laurence Maroney are breaking off a nice run. Kansas City 3, Denver 0. In 91 meetings between the two teams, it's never eve been a scoreless tie at the half. But Damon Huard and Jake Plummer nearly made that happen today. Actually, Huard is 11-of-12 on the day, though they've all been really really short throws. It's been an ugly game, but not quite the disaster I was hoping for. NFL Scoreboard

Napoli would find it difficult to say no to a €100million (£85m) offer should Manchester United make a move for Victor Osimhen, head coach Luciano Spalletti has said.
United have reportedly been weighing up a big-money bid for the Nigeria forward, though those rumours have quietened since their focus switched to signing Antony from Ajax.
Osimhen has also attracted interest from the likes of Arsenal, Tottenham and Bayern Munich this window, but he remains a Napoli player ahead of Thursday s transfer deadline.
However, speaking after Napoli s goalless draw with Fiorentina on Sunday, Spalletti admitted his side would struggle to turn down a mammoth sum for the 22-year-old.
The club thinks of any situation that is of interest to our players, he told DAZ…
Atalanta are preparing an offer for Tammy Abraham, according to Fabrizio Romano. However, their move for the Chelsea striker depends on whether Inter Milan sell Romelu Lukaku to Chelsea and the Nerazzurri come for Duvan Zapata as a replacement for the Belgium international.
Arsenal are also reportedly interested in Abraham, but it remains to be seen if the Gunners persist in the race against Atalanta who are willing to pay €40 million for the services of the 23-year-old. What s more, Chelsea would be happier to sell the player abroad than to a Premier League rival.
As things stand, it seems that Lukaku s move back to Stamford Bridge may actually happen this month. Inter have already rejected an offer of €100m from the Champions League holders, but Chelsea are still …
Antonio Conte insists his commitment to Chelsea has not wavered this season, despite ongoing speculation surrounding his future.

I didn t change my commitment for the club, Conte told a news conference. My commitment has always been the same.
Maybe this season we worked even harder than last season. I don t know if something has changed…

Sunderland were forced to pay for not taking their chances as Fulham claimed a narrow 1-0 victory at the Stadium of Light on Saturday.
The hosts dominated proceedings from the outset and had a number of good goalscoring opportunities through striker Jozy Altidore, but the visitors only needed one chance as Pajtim Kasami headed home from a corner in the second half.
Paolo Di Canio was without suspended duo Craig Gardner and David Vaughan for the opening fixture, while Steven Fletcher was forced to miss out with the ankle injury that ended his previous campaign in March.

Antoine Griezmann understands why Atletico Madrid supporters were anxious about his future amid continued strong speculation linking the striker to Barcelona.
Griezmann announced his intention to stay at Atletico in a televised documentary prior to France s first game at the World Cup.

FIFA has rejected appeals from Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid against transfer bans, meaning the LaLiga clubs will be barred from registering players for the next two transfer windows.
World football s governing body initially imposed the punishment in January due to the capital clubs breaching rules in relation to the transfer of minors but suspended them later in the month, pending appeal.
Madrid and Atletico will now be unable to register new players until January 2018, with their respective initial fines of 360,000 Swiss francs and 900,000 Swiss francs remaining.
Barcelona were given a similar punishment in 2014 and signed Arda Turan and Aleix Vidal before the start of last season, even though the registration ban prevented either man from representing the …
