Dolphins finish off Browns in OT on Jay Ajayi TD and other top stories.

  • Dolphins finish off Browns in OT on Jay Ajayi TD

    After Cleveland kicker Cody Parkey missed a would-be, game-winning field goal at the end of regulation, the Miami Dolphins (1-2) struck down an injury-riddled Browns (0-3) team 30-24 in overtime, a win triggered by Jay Ajayi's 11-yard touchdown. Here's what we learned: 1. Victory aside, Miami's offense remains a streaky operation. Ryan Tannehill threw a pair of first-half interceptions, including an ugly 27-yard pick six to Cleveland's Briean Boddy-Calhoun that handed the Browns an early 10-..

    ICYMI in NFL's Week 3: Rookies Wentz, Prescott stay INT-free
    There's never been quite the sort of clean, composed rookie quarterbacking that Carson Wentz of the Philadelphia Eagles and Dak Prescott of the Dallas Cowboys are producing week after week after week. Wentz, drafted No. 2 overall out of North Dakota State, is the first rookie QB since 1970 to open a season 3-0 with zero interceptions. His 102 passes without a pick are an NFL record for a first-year player. Second on that list? Prescott, a fourth-round pick from Mississippi State, with 99 ..

    The force that drove Arnold Palmer
    Pull up a chair, young and impressionable golf fans, because you really need to hear this. Arnold Palmer was not a nice old man who sold you a cool soft drink years after he sold your parents and grandparents motor oil and rental cars.Yes, he was about as neighborly as a worldwide celebrity could ever be. You could easily imagine him lending you his tractor or lawn mower or plowing eight inches of snow from your driveway if you happened to be away on business. But please understand something whe..

    Snap Judgments: Zimmer, Vikings riding defense to 3-0 start
    Musings, observations and the occasional insight from a wacky and rather mistake-strewn Week 3 in the NFL ... » No Teddy Bridgewater was supposed to spell disaster. No Adrian Peterson was expected to all but ensure doom. But so far, the Minnesota Vikings have no injury problems that can't be overcome, thanks to a defense that never seems to go missing when it's needed most. Roll this reality around in your head: The Vikings just went into Carolina's Bank of America Stadium and ended the defe..

    For South Florida Cubans, watching Jose Fernandez pitch felt like freedom
    Called my mother with the awful news Sunday morning. Had such a hard time getting out the words that she thought something terrible had happened to me.I know how much she loved Jose Fernandez. As a player. As a personality. As a symbol of strength and pride for our people. Marlins management has extinguished Mom's love for baseball one move at a time over the last two decades. Fernandez was the only thing that brought her limping back to that ballpark to climb those stairs in her old age. The on..
