NFL today: How to watch Chiefs v Seahawks, TV channels & live stream Sunday 25 October

How will the Kansas City and Seattle fare today? Here is what to know, including kick-off time, TV channels and live stream optionsSunday Night Football this week is a blockbuster. The Chiefs take their undefeated record to Seattle, where the defending-champ Seahawks should have an early sense of urgency. Mike Macdonald’s team enter at 3-3, already a full three games (plus, for now, a tiebreaker) behind the gangbusters 49ers. To have any real shot at a home playoff game — a critical edge in last year’s Super Bowl run — the Seahawks need to get a win against a resurgent Chiefs squad who nothing like the husk they appeared to be down the stretch last season.In addition to a clash between two marquee franchises, the evening is a homecoming for one of the most important players of the young season: Kenneth Walker III. The Seahawks-turned-Chiefs running back has been key to KC’s offensive revitalization after signing as a free agent following his Super Bowl MVP nod with Seattle. The Chiefs were in the bottom half of the league in rushing yards per carry last year but this season hold a whopping lead over the second-place team, averaging 5.5 yards to the Bills’ 5.1. The 26-year-old Walker is having a career year and has worked his way from “good player” to “maybe the Offensive Player of the Year.” Continue reading...

Pierre Sage regrets ‘missed 15 minutes’ as defeat increases heat on Crystal Palace manager

Sage’s side beaten 2-0 at home by Newcastle‘Every mistake that is bad will be a goal’Pierre Sage blamed a 15-minute loss of concentration for Crystal Palace’s 2-0 defeat by Newcastle and insisted he remains the right man to lead the south London club. “We missed 15 minutes when we came back from the dressing room,” the Frenchman said. “When you let your opponent take the initiative without pressure, without reply, it’s difficult.”Palace have conceded 19 goals in eight games and have the worst defensive record in the Premier League, an obvious contrast to last season when Sage’s Lens side had the second-best defensive record in Ligue 1. “When we concede all these goals … you can interpret that through the style of play and also how well we are playing, especially defensively,” Sage said.
