The United States Women’s National Team won their fourth World Cup with a 2-0 win over the Netherlands in Lyon, France on Sunday. The USWNT were the favorites to win the World Cup at the outset of the tournament, and they continually came through in the knockout rounds by beating Spain, France, England, and 2017 European Champions Netherlands to win back-to-back World Cups. Midfielder Julie Ertz has been one of the stars of the team, and her husband (Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz) has been cheering her along in France. Julie now has two titles to Zach’s one, so the Eagles will have to win another Super Bowl for husband and wife to be even again.

Randy Moss was the most talented wide receiver to ever play the game, and we get periodic reminders of that. NFL analyst James Light is one of the best X’s and O’s guys around, and he shared some footage showing just how special Moss could be when he was at his best. Cam Worrell was the defensive back that Moss jumped over to snare a touchdown pass on that play, and he showed how Moss could beat you even if you knew what was coming. Worrell had excellent position and immediately read the route, but Moss made the play anyway. If anyone tries to make an argument that Antonio Brown or Nuke Hopkins are better wideouts, just show them this clip.
The worst part is, I was pretty sure what route was coming based on D&D, field position, and formation. I break almost before Moss does. But it doesn’t matter 🤣🤣 https://t.co/R6hE4f0SIC

Frank Gore has been a workhorse running back throughout his NFL career. Gore has been Mr. Consistent during his 14 seasons in the league, and he is not ready to retire even though he is now 36. He continues to be a productive running back, and he is closing in on 15,000 career rushing yards. Gore is currently the fourth all-time leading rusher in NFL history and could surpass Barry Sanders this year.
Bills RB Frank Gore is heading into his 15th season but doesn’t see a finish line.
