Cincinnati Bengals prepare curiously for Arrowhead

Kansas City - Arrowhead Stadium is without a doubt one of the loudest stadiums in the NFL.The Chiefs fans will probably make a lot of noise again in the championship game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday (from 8:45 p.m. live on ProSieben and in the live stream on ran.de). Bengals practice with fan noise off the assembly lineFormer German NFL professional Sebastian Vollmer said on the #ranNFL playoff web show "Champion Check": "When I had to play at Arrowhead Stadium, I couldn't hear my opponent right next to me anymore." But how do you prepare for that as an away team? Bengals coach Zac Taylor trained at the Bengals stadium last week and then played the fan noise over loudspeakers there. "We've played in a noisy environment before, but of course I kn...

Orlando wins the duel of the dunces of the East | NBA

From the first minutes, the Magic took the lead over the Pistons. In the duel of the rookies, it is Franz Wagner and Jalen Suggs who shine the most: they accumulate 10 points, while Cade Cunningham is struggling in attack (0/5). In the wake of its two "lottery picks", the Magic deliver an offensive card in the first quarter: 39 points at 15/22 on shots, including 13 points from Franz Wagner. The Pistons show a new face for the second quarter and pick up at -7 under the impetus of their bench (27 points for the trio Trey Lyles – Rodney McGruder – Killian Hayes), while Gary Harris scores 10 points out of Magic side bench. On the return of the holders from Orlando at the end of the quarter, the scenario at the start of the match repeated itself and the gap swelled again (67-51 at...

The list of events protected by free-to-air broadcasting soon to be “modernized”

Since a decree of December 2004, 21 sporting events “of major importance” have been protected by unencrypted broadcasting. The government announces this Friday the launch of a consultation to modernize the list. The list of 21 events of major importance (EIM), aiming to guarantee free access to certain sports competitions for viewers, will it finally be updated when it remains unchanged since it was fixed by decree? in 2004 ?

NFL – Bengals O-Line as a construction site

Munich/Cincinnati - It was an afternoon for the history books as the Cincinnati Bengals won the divisional playoffs at the Tennessee Titans.Not only did the guests from Ohio end their long dry spell in terms of away wins in the playoffs, but the Titans also set a record: Joe Burrow was sacked nine times, a playoff high. The reason for this lies not only in the Titans' excellent pass rush, but also in the Bengals' holey offensive line.Burrow injured by weak O-Line - Chase over Sewell in draftThis isn't a new problem with the Bengals. Already in 2020, the protection for the Bengals quarterback was almost non-existent. Cincinnati's tackles were and are maliciously referred to as "revolving doors."It was not for nothing that Joe Burrow, first pick in the 2020 draft, had to watch almost h...

Steve Kerr on Andrew Wiggins: “I couldn’t be happier” | NBA

It was after his nap that Andrew Wiggins learned from his partner that he was selected directly for the All-Star Game. Eight years after his Draft, the former high school star won his first star, and all the Warriors were overjoyed for him. Starting with Steve Kerr. "It's one of the moments I'm most proud of as a coach because I've seen what Wiggs has achieved since he arrived here two years ago." said Steve Kerr. “The path he has traveled has been rocky at times, and when I see how hard he has worked and that work is rewarding, I couldn't be happier for him. The whole franchise is shining right now because of what Wiggs means to us, but more importantly because of how he carries himself every day. He's a great guy, he deserves it and we're all happy for him. » The ideal pro...

The Heat correct desperate Knicks | NBA

The Heat starts very strong. By a suffocating defense and effective systems for two award-winning shots from Duncan Robinson, the Floridians take an 11-point lead after four minutes (13-2). The Knicks find themselves chasing the score from the start, not ideal for gaining confidence. Especially since PJ Tucker unexpectedly catches fire (10 points) and the Heat logically prances in the lead after twelve minutes (30-16). It is then Tyler Herro, back after a week in solitary confinement, who takes over for the Heat. The sixth man from Miami scored 9 points in 6 minutes and the gap remained above 15 points. We have to wait for a big pass from RJ Barrett, which allows the Knicks to pick up at -10 halfway through the second quarter (46-36), to find some interest in this meeting. T...

Resignation – if you were to ask him now

Munich – Rob Gronkowski does it like buddy Tom Brady: He takes his time. Gathering distance to rest after a bitter divisional round playoff loss with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So there would be no point in talking to the tight end about his future in the NFL or the Bucs right now. Although his contract is up and he would be a free agent in March, the answer you would get from "Gronk" now would be pretty clear - and for fans a sad one.Rob Gronkowski: "I will not play""If they said, 'Rob, you have to decide right now, right this second, whether you're going to play next year,' I would say 'no' right now," Gronkowski told TMZ.com. "I would say, 'No, I'm not going to play.' If I had to provide an answer now," Gronk clarified, "it would be 'no'." He was one of the Bucs' regular season ach...

Soap Ben Simmons: Hawks and Sixers reportedly discussed five-player trade | NBA

While Daryl Morey assures that there is dead calm on the front lines of Ben Simmons transfer talks, Hoopshype reveals the Sixers were in advanced negotiations with the Hawks. We do not know when the discussions date since Atlanta has raised its head for 10 days, but the exchange involved five major players. Thus, the Sixers were ready to send Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris to the Hawks, in exchange for John Collins, Bogdan Bogdanovic and Danilo Gallinari. On paper, it was rather balanced with confirmed players, and a young talent like John Collins to satisfy the Sixers. No playmaker to compensate for the departure of Ben Simmons, but the team is doing well without him, and Philly would have gained in size, points, rebounds and density. But... Hoopshype reports that negotiations ...

“Trade deadline”: the Cavaliers aim for a second back | NBA

After losing Collin Sexton and Ricky Rubio, we imagined that the Cavaliers would take advantage of the “trade deadline” to recruit a point guard, but according to Hoopshype, management would instead seek a second full-back. The hatching, and even the explosion of Darius Garland, followed by the arrival of Rajon Rondo seem sufficient to approach the second part of the season, and according to our confreres, three players would be in their viewfinder: Caris Levert, Eric Gordon and Terrence Ross. The track Joe Harris, a former member of the house, is more complicated, given the status he has acquired in Brooklyn. The first is a free electron, a strong attacker, and he would indeed do good in position 2. He does not have the defensive qualities of Isaac Okoro but he would bring pun...
