Under preseason replay standard, Kyle Rudolph touchdown likely would have been wiped out
That’s consistent with the standard that Riveron has used for most of the season. Although, techically, the flag should be thrown if there’s clear and obvious evidence of Rudolph pushing the defender to gain separation, Riveron has been relying on something more egregious before dropping a flag when no flag was thrown. Based on the manner in which Riveron was explaining the new procedure before the season began, Rudolph’s one-armed shove likely would have been enough to trigger a penalty via replay review.

In order to get there, general manager Ryan Pace has to make calculated and strategic decisions with one objective in mind: Protect the Bears from another Trubisky letdown and make sure they have their own version of Tannehill in place who’s capable of ascending into a leadership role if Trubisky fails.
Conor McGregor’s coach: ‘I don’t think there is a fighter on the planet that has his fight IQ’
When it comes to Conor McGregor fighting, coach John Kavanagh doesn’t really care who the opponent is, as long as his fighter is focused. When McGregor’s attention is zoned in on fighting, Kavanagh believes there is no other fighter in the world that can match him. McGregor has never shied away from the big fights, and he’s defeated most of his opponents, but he’ll need to be on point when he returns to the Octagon on Jan. 18, where he’ll face Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone in the UFC 246 main event in Las Vegas.
