That drive was for naught. Denver had already put the Bengals away with a 55-yard touchdown pass from Trevor Seimian to Demaryius Thomas on the previous drive. That capped a 29-17 win for the Broncos and meant another missed opportunity for the Bengals to prove their worth as a true as an AFC contender. MORE: Is Trevor Seimian legit? “We go up three in the fourth quarter there, and aren’t able to win the game,” Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said....

With the Giants and Falcons cracking goose eggs with their first wins of the season earlier in the day, the Jets are the only NFL team still in danger of a dubious distinction this season: Finishing 0-16. Since the NFL schedule expanded, only two teams, the 2008 Lions and 2017 Browns, have failed to record a victory. The Jets’ current average margin of defeat is more than 18 points. This is the worst Jets team in 24 seasons....

It’s impossible to discuss the success of The Mandalorian without bringing up Grogu. From the moment The Child appeared on screen, fans were fascinated. Particularly because, for a long time, his face was the only one belonging to a main character viewers got to see. But there’s also the fact that he was just super adorable. Disney has always been good at capitalizing on characters who have merchandising potential, but Grogu exceeded even the media giant’s expectations on its way to becoming a pop culture reference....

Qatar’s democratic system still more of a distant concept than a reality–is courtesy of a benign aristocrat, not a grass-roots movement. The relative freedom of discussion on Al-Jazeera, like the four-year-old municipal electoral system, were gifts from Qatar’s progressive emir, Sheik Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani. The Sandhurst-educated al-Thani has decided his people need representative government, just as they need free health care and education. “If the people don’t ask for democracy, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t offer it,” his wife Sheikha Mozah bint Nasser Al Missned told NEWSWEEK....

“I know the process was a pretty big deal last time, so when I woke up this morning, I figured I’d just press record and let you guys know first,” Brady said in a video he posted on his Twitter page. “I won’t be long-winded. You only get one super emotional retirement essay, and I used mine up last year, so really thank you guys so much to every single one of you for supporting me....

A move from the German Bundesliga to the English League Championship was seen as a step back, but Williams has begun making the most of his transfer, starting regularly for Reading FC and helping the Royals make a strong push toward a promotion playoff place. Williams opened his scoring account for Reading on Saturday, netting a 76th-minute insurance goal in his team's 3-0 victory against Milwall. The win, Reading's fourth in five matches, helped keep the Royals four points ahead of the trailing pack for sixth place, and the final promotion playoff spot in the Championship....

The midfielder no longer listens to most of the music he liked as a youngster, which included S Club 7, Boyzone and Ronan Keating. However, Wilshere says he is still an admirer of late great Michael’s discography, which his father used to listen to while driving him to Arsenal training back in the day.

1-Angelique Kerber (Germany) The world number one had a poor start to the season and became the first top seeded woman to lose in the French Open first round in the professional era when she was beaten by 40th-ranked Ekaterina Makarova. She has not won a WTA title this year, but has a good record at Wimbledon, where she finished runner-up last year. Kerber, who is hoping to become the first German to win the Wimbledon title since Steffi Graf in 1996, has endured a difficult first week at this year’s championships and needed three sets to see off Shelby Rogers in the third round....

The Swiss Miss continued her comeback march after taking down Carla Suarez Navarro on Saturday, giving her a second return to the round of 16. While she didn’t make it past Victoria Azarenka that year, the obstacle was always supposed to be just as great against the former world number one Kerber. Bencic had managed to defeat her twice on the tour on hardcourts, but was surely hoping to add another one on a surface she was more than comfortable with....

Two-time All England Club champion Nadal is the world number two after winning the French Open, yet it has been reported that he will be seeded number three at the third major of the year. Federer has eight Wimbledon titles - more than any other men’s singles player - and could capitalise on Nadal’s drop with a potentially easier semi-final draw. The Spaniard believes Wimbledon should fall in line with the rest of the tournaments on the ATP Tour and following the rankings....

What’s Coming to the Windows 10 Touch Keyboard? Windows Latest managed to dig deep into the Windows 10 touch keyboard and unearth some interesting tidbits of knowledge for a future patch. Microsoft is working on making the touch keyboard a lot more colorful than it is now. If you take a peek at the current version of the touch keyboard, you find a depressingly small amount of customization. You can only choose between a light theme or a dark theme, whether you like them or not....

Many people thought this was a bug, but Microsoft has confirmed that’s not the case. Widgets is now pinned to the left side of the taskbar by default, and it’s the only icon which opens when you hover over it. When this happens unintentionally, Windows 11 assumes you want to open Widgets, closing the Start menu abruptly. The new location for Widgets is particularly problematic if you’ve moved the Start menu back to its classic location, which now causes a direct conflict....

Tech, Mark Whitten, the general manager responsible for Microsoft’s Xbox Live service, told attendees at the Streaming Media West show that Project Natal could possibly replace the remote control for your television and become the biggest revolution in television technology since the remote control’s invention. “It won’t be a remote control that consumers use. A remote control is already too hard,” Whitten stated. Instead, users will be able to motion with their wrists to change a channel or start a movie just by using their voice....
