Bengals QB Joe Burrow, Giants QB Daniel Jones lead Players of the Week

A pair of young quarterbacks coming off sterling showings led the way in Week 4 and have been rewarded for their outings.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones led the way for the NFL Players of the Week, which were released Wednesday.

Burrow turned in one of the best showings of his young career on Thursday night in the Bengals’ 24-21 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars and garnered his first AFC Offensive Player of the Week honor. Burrow completed 78% (25 of 32) of his passes for 348 yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions and a 132.8 rating.

Jones’ career-high 402 yards propelled the Giants to their first win of the season, 27-21, in overtime against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. Jones, who added 27 rushing yards, had two touchdown passes and completed 28 of 40 passes (70%).

Jones’ NFC Offensive Player of the Week nod was the second of his career and led an NFC East sweep of NFC weekly awards.

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs had four tackles and two interceptions in his squad’s 36-28 win over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Diggs leads the NFL with five interceptions through four weeks and was tabbed NFC Defensive Player of the Week.

NFC Special Teams Player of the Week went to Washington Football Team kick returner DeAndre Carter. Carter’s 101-yard kick return for a touchdown proved crucial in Washington’s 34-30 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.

The Buffalo Bills’ defense was dominant and then some in a 40-0 throttling of the Houston Texans on Sunday. Bills linebacker Tremaine Edmunds was a guiding force in the shutout and garnered AFC Defensive Player of the Week after notching six tackles and an interception.

Indianapolis Colts punter Rigoberto Sanchez averaged 50 yards per punt in his team’s 27-17 win over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Sanchez punted four times, with two landing inside the 20, and was named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week.

日本の民間人として初めて国際宇宙ステーション(ISS)に12日間滞在した、衣類通販大手ZOZOの創業者でスタートトゥデイ社長の前澤友作氏(46)が7日、都内の日本外国特派員協会で会見を開いた。21年12月20日に地球に帰還し、同23日午後に帰国後、新型コロナウイルス感染症の水際対策措置として行われている、自主隔離を行っており、隔離明けの“仕事始め”となった。前澤氏は、宇宙に行く時、恐怖心はあったか? と聞かれると「恐怖はなかった」と即答した。ロシアの宇宙船ソユーズMS-20に乗り込み、打ち上げられた時の様子については「早い話、富士急ハイランドのジェットコースターの方が怖い。新幹線のホームから出る…景色が動いているのを見て出たと感じるじゃないですか? そういう感じでリフトオフ(離陸しての自力飛行)になった」と、独特の言い回しで語った。一方で、地球への帰還はきつかったという。「帰りは大気圏突入の時、5、6G(重力加速度)かかる。きつい。パラシュートが開いた瞬間、ものすごい揺れるのでビビった」と笑いながら振り返った。前澤氏は、20年12月8日午後12時38分(日本時間同4時38分)に、カザフスタンのバイコヌール宇宙基地から打ち上げられた、ロシアの宇宙船ソユーズMS-20に乗り込み、宇宙に向かった。打ち上げから約6時間後の同6時48分(同10時48分)に、ソユーズはISSとのドッキングに成功。8日午後9時11分(日本時間9日午前1時11分)に双方がつながったハッチが開けられ、前澤氏らはISS内に入った。そして同20日午前8時52分にソユーズはISSとのドッキングを解かれ、宇宙空間に飛び立ち、帰還の途についた。同午後12時13分に帰還モジュールはカザフスタンの平原に着陸し、地球に帰還し、同23日に帰国した。元TBS記者の秋山豊寛氏以来31年ぶり2人目の日本人の商業宇宙飛行となった。

Разбор Вадима Лукомского. «Атлетико» переиграл «Барселону» (2:0). Кажется, это была самая легкая и уверенная победа над «Барсой» в эпоху Диего Симеоне (традиционно у него тут были проблемы). Давайте разбираться в деталях. 1. В составе «Атлетико» было два относительных сюрприза. В старте не вышли Киран Триппьер и Антуан Гризманн. На самом деле оба решения Диего Симеоне…
