Let me suggest European football:The UEFA Champions League's Round of 16 , and it includes stars, drama and a super team looking to repeat -- just like the Chiefs. Best of all, it's all available on CBS and/or ! Here's today's action: Copenhagen vs. Manchester City ()RB Leipzig vs. Real Madrid () Manchester City is looking to join Real Madrid (2016-18) as the only teams to repeat as champion. The Citizens are atop and are a from our CBSSports.com Morning Footy experts. The Manchester City name most people know -- and for good reason -- is Erling Haaland, the Citizens' goal-scoring extraordinaire. Or perhaps it's midfield maestro Kevin de Bruyne. But as James Benge explains, Here's more: Honorable mentions Tiger Woodshas a through TaylorMade:Sun Day Red.

Several players said , with fullback Kyle Juszczyksaying the team had not even talked about it. This was the, but that's no excuse, and it's certainly an awful look. Under the new rules, both teams are guaranteed at least one po se sion. If the game is still tied after one offensive po se sion for each team, the game goes into sudden death. Kyle Shanahan opted to take the ball first. : If the score was tied after one po se sion by each team, the 49ers would get the third po se sion with a chance to win with any score.The 49ers got a field goal on their first po se sion. The Chiefs answered with a touchdown on their first po se sion. Game over.For what it's worth, Patrick Mahomes said there never would have been a third drive: If the 49ers had opened with a touchdown and extra point and the Chiefs had answered with a touchdown, Making matters worse, the Chiefs had for the Craig Kimbrel Jersey extra se sion.I still don't think it's a bad decision by Shanahan. Let's say he had won the to s and deferred, and both teams scored touchdowns and extra points. Then what? You have to stop Mahomes and Co. from scoring. Not exactly ideal, either. Basically Shanahan had to choose between the value of potentially getting the first crack at scoring in sudden death (what he chose) vs. the value of knowing exactly what he'd have to do on his first offensive drive of overtime (what the Chiefs had). It's not like the 49ers getting the ball first inherently prevented them from scoring a touchdown. People who know much more math than I do say this new system is e sentially 50/50. Unfortunately for Shanahan and the 49ers, they ran into the buzzsaw that is Patrick Mahomes, who seemingly makes the decision of every opposing coach look like the wrong Tyler Thornburg Jersey one. The result was.

Monday night was another example of just how special he is: The French phenom became the as the Spurs blew out the Raptors, . The final stat line is so absurd it looks made up: 27 points, 14 rebounds, 10 blocks, five a sists and two steals. The other rookies to do so were Mark Eaton, Ralph Sampson and David Robinson.At 20 years old, Wembanyama is also the youngest player to have a triple-double with blocks.Only four players -- regardle s of age/experience -- have had 27 points, 14 rebounds, 10 blocks and five a sists in a game: Sampson, Hakeem Olajuwon and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.As Sam Quinn reminds us, Quinn: Well, we're into the second day of the NFL offseason, and I already mi s the season so much. Maybe we should start calling it the "other season," because "offseason" just makes me sad. Plus, it truly the other season: coaching changes, free agency, the draft. It's an exciting, crucial time, even without games. Tyler Sullivan is here to examine , and how can we not start with team No. 1 in the draft order? Sullivan: In my eyes, unle s Chicago is really, really out on Williams or really, really, REALLY in on Fields, keeping the pick and taking Williams is the right move. It resets the quarterback salary clock (Fields is potentially one year away from free agency; a good rookie would be five) and brings in a player with superstar potential -- something Fields hasn't shown consistently. Plus, Chicago can add another premier talent with the No. 9 pickadd even more draft capital if they find a suitor for Fields. , per reports.
