The players are outside linebackers Matthew Judon and Tyus Bowser; inside linebackers L.J. Fort,...

BALTIMORE — The mistakes, the Baltimore Ravens contend, can be corrected. Four turnovers by Lamar Jackson are fixable.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Cincinnati Bengals defense is in disarray, on the field and off. Multiple injuries to key personnel and an inability to shut the door on teams are glaring reasons the Bengals keep losing close games and are stuck at 1-5-1 as another dismal season approaches the midway...

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The Patriots were hoping the problems that surfaced during their Week 6 loss to Denver were an aberration, a momentary setback rooted in the outbreak of coronavirus in their locker room and the lack of practice time that followed. It turns out their issues might run much...
