Don’t take from the stats. Don’t take it from the expectations. Don’t take it from the Heisman Trophy race. Take it from Clemson coach Dabo Swinney, who thinks Watson has been better than a 2015 season in which he became the first 4,000/1,000 quarterback in FBS history and led the Tigers to a College Football Playoff championship game. MORE: Week 14 bowl projections “I think he’s had a better season,” Swinney said on the ACC teleconference Sunday....

More specifically, elevated levels of FeNO indicate inflammation in the lungs and that a patient is likely to respond to inhaled steroids based on previous research. Thus, FeNO more accurately identifies a potential response to treatment rather than making a specific diagnosis of asthma. Problems With Traditional Monitoring Most asthma action plans are currently driven by asthma symptoms or peak flows. Traditional symptoms such as wheezing, chest tightness, cough, and shortness of breath can be very non-specific and are not necessarily related to the amount of inflammation that is actually present in your lungs....

But a thrilling comeback from 2-0 down to beat lowly Newcastle 3-2 could prove to be little more than a stay of execution for Mourinho, with a run of tougher fixtures looming. He said he had received a text message from a senior board member, believed to be the club’s executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward, before kick-off on Saturday telling him to ignore reports that the axe was set to fall regardless of the result against Newcastle....

Any worries of Dragic bolting when he opted out of his contract were quickly squashed — he was among the first free agents to ink an extension this offseason. However, we’ve seen how trading future assets for immediate reward can come back to haunt a team . While the Heat are equipped for a deep playoff run next season, they’ve mortgaged a large portion of their future to make the most out of Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade and Dragic’s prime....

Along with Sinema, Manchin is viewed by many political observers as one of the country’s most powerful people. Their less-reliably-liberal votes can either grant the green light or spell doom for legislation in an otherwise stalemated U.S. Senate. The Democrats narrowly held on to their Senate majority following November’s midterm elections. And this week, after Republican candidate Herschel Walker conceded in Georgia’s U.S. Senate runoff election against Senator Raphael Warnock, Democrats locked in a 51-49 majority....

The discussion appeared to stem from the release of a clip from the upcoming movie Thor: Love and Thunder on 18 April, which showed Pratt’s character Star-Lord, also known as Peter Quill, giving his team a pep talk. He was then seen telling them that if ever they felt lost, they should “look into the eyes of the people that you love,” at which point titular character Thor, portrayed by Chris Hemsworth, stares intensely into Star-Lord’s eyes....

Moan moan moan, lost against West Ham… moan, moan, 11 years no Premier League trophy… moan, moan, no Benzema… moan, moan, Wenger tactics… moan, moan, Giroud is terrible… moan, moan… You can tell football season is here when you start hearing people flooding support forums with the usual post-loss moan. Unless you’ve been hiding in a cave or have been overly obsessed with protesting against the ban of fun things which take under two minutes (read: Maggi & Pornography) you would know that Arsenal lost their first game of the season against West Ham....

Panthers head coach Ron Rivera announced Monday that there is no update on the quarterback, who has been dealing with foot injuries during the 2019 season. Earlier reports suggested that Newton could be placed on Injured Reserve, effectively ending the quarterback’s season. MORE: SN’s latest NFL Power Rankings “Cam will continue the rehab program, I’ve got nothing further than that, guys,” Rivera said in his Monday press conference. “I can’t tell you anything other that what I’ve already told you....

Just hours after Newton and the Panthers dismantled the Falcons at home, the 6-5, 245-pound quarterback rolled through someone’s picture on his hoverboard and created an epic photobomb with dozens of Panthers fans in the background. Then he just casually cruised away.

He’s a sore loser. “I hate losing,” Newton told reporters as the Panthers cleaned out their lockers at Bank of America Stadium. “Who likes to lose? You show me a good loser. I’ll show you a loser.” Newton understandably did not want to speak with the media following Sunday’s 24-10 loss to the Broncos at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif. He didn’t really want to speak with the media on Tuesday, but “things have to happen....

File the 49ers near the top of the list. Even though Jimmy Garoppolo has been highly effective when healthy the past three sesons, there’s a good chance San Francisco is seeking an upgrade to get to the next level of Kyle Shanahan’s dynamic offense. Watson, still only 25, would offer just that — and it would be hard for Watson to find a team with a better offensive system that also isn’t too far away from winning the Super Bowl....

Coming into Friday’s matchup against the Raptors, Philadelphia sports a 1-4 record and is stuck looking up at teams in the East that many thought would be lottery bound. The good news for 76ers fans is it’s early. The bad news is that after each loss, fans have been left wondering why one of the league’s most talented teams on paper has looked so … off.
