Rick’s girl Kristi said, “All the Rick’s girls are really hot, and Santa was impressed. Christmas is amazing at Rick’s with so many parties, business people, office parties, pro athletes, couples —  all having a great time.”

Jacory Croskey-Merritt ran for a touchdown, fellow rookie Jaylin Lane returned a punt 63 yards to the end zone and the Washington Commanders ended their season-derailing skid at eight games by beating the similarly woeful New York Giants 29-21 on Sunday.

The only NFL game this week with no playoff implications has a far bigger bearing on draft positioning. The Giants (2-12) lost their eighth in a row, moving a step closer to the top pick, a last-place finish in the NFC East and potentially front-office changes, with a coaching search already coming.

Jayden Daniels’ didn’t play Sunday after aggravating a left elbow injury, so it was Marcus Mariota who quarterbacked the Commanders to their first victory since Oct. 5.

Mariota connected with top receiver Terry McLaurin on a 51-yard catch-and-run TD early in the fourth quarter. That was one of only 10 passes Mariota completed on 19 attempts for 211 yards, with a fumble.

Giants QB Jaxson Dart had TD passes to Tyrone Tracy and Wan’Dale Robinson but also threw a costly interception and was incomplete on a fourth-and-goal attempt with 10 minutes left.

Tracy ran for the Giants’ first touchdown after falling behind 13-0, and his TD catch happened when they were down 22-7.

The Jets (3-11) struggled to contain QB Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars (10-4) in a 48-20 loss at EverBank Stadium on Sunday. The Jaguars capitalized on several short field opportunities as Lawrence threw for 330 yards and 5 TDs.

“Very disappointing on a number of levels,” Head Coach Aaron Glenn said of the game. 

“When you give up that many points, that’s tough. It doesn’t allow our QB to actually get in the groove. It doesn’t allow our offense to get in the groove. … Our offense didn’t play up to par, either. So, there were issues across the board.”

Pete Alonso has agreed to a five-year, $155 million deal with the Baltimore Orioles.

The contract comes a year after Alonso, 30, struggled to secure a long-term deal on the free-agent market. With the move, the Orioles finally have their big-name free agent.

Alonso fits in well with the Orioles. Alonso immediately gives the team a middle-of-the-order power bat capable of posting big numbers regardless of the ballpark. That should work out well in Baltimore, where righties have had a tough time hitting home runs since the team altered the wall in left field.

After failing to land the mega-deal he desired last offseason, Alonso signed a two-year, $54 million pact to return to the New York Mets. That deal contained an opt-out  after the first year, allowing Alonso to test the free-agent waters again.

Hardee’s announced the debut of a new permanent menu platform with the introduction of its new Nashville Hot Chicken lineup.

Joining Hardee’s signature Hand-Breaded Chicken platform, the new Nashville Hot Chicken lineup includes kicked-up versions of Hardee’s favorites like Nashville Hot Hand-Breaded Chicken Sandwich, Nashville Hot Hand-Breaded Chicken Tenders, and Nashville Hot Hand-Breaded Chicken Biscuit.

Here’s a closer look at the lineup:

• Nashville Hot Hand-Breaded Chicken Sandwich: A premium, all-white chicken fillet, hand dipped in buttermilk, lightly breaded, fried to a golden brown, topped with Nashville Hot Seasoning, plus garlic pickles and mayonnaise, all served on a toasted potato bun.
• Nashville Hot Hand-Breaded Chicken Biscuit: A tender all-white meat chicken breast, battered and breaded in the brand’s crispy coating, topped with Nashville Hot Seasoning on a Made from Scratch Biscuit
• Nashville Hot Hand-Breaded Chicken Tenders: Premium, all-white meat chicken, hand dipped in buttermilk, lightly breaded, fried to a golden brown and topped with Nashville Hot Seasoning. Each order is served with a choice of dipping sauce.

The Miami Dolphins have won four consecutive games after a 34-10 victory over the hapless New York Jets.

The Dolphins have improved from 1-6 to 6-7 and are mathematically alive in the AFC playoff hunt.

The Jets played without Quinnen Williams and Sauce Gardner (traded) and Justin Fields (injury). They also lost quarterback Tyrod Taylor to a groin injury in the first half of this game.

Dolphin Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa improved to 1-7 when the temperature is 46 degrees or colder at kickoff. It was 41 degrees.

The odds of Mike McDaniel returning as Miami head coach in 2026 appear to be improving each week.

The Jets drop to 3-10 on the season. Now the Jets prepare to go on the road to face the Jacksonville Jaguars next week.

Subway offers a new twist on a classic with the debut of the Sweet Onion Steak Teriyaki sub.

The Sweet Onion Steak Teriyaki sub features shaved steak piled high on Artisanal Italian bread, topped with crisp green peppers, red onions and American cheese, then finished with Subway’s new tangy Sweet Onion Teriyaki sauce, with notes of soy, sesame, garlic and black pepper.

The update to a Subway classic represents the latest innovation as the brand continues the journey it began with last summer’s Eat Fresh Refresh ⁠— with even more crave-worthy sandwiches still to come.

The New England Patriots beat the New York Giants 33-15 on Monday Night Football. It was the Patriots 10th consecutive winning game, moving their NFL-best record to 11-2. The Giants are now 2-11.

The Patriots outgained the Giants 395 to 239, with Drake Maye continuing to make an MVP case. He went 24-of-31 for 282 yards and two touchdowns.

Maye completed passes to eight different receivers, with Hunter Henry catching four for 73. Kyle Williams had a 33-yard touchdown reception, and Kayshon Boutte scored on a 3-yard catch.

The Patriots dominated in all three phases, but three miscues by the Giants special teams allowed New England to run away with it.

In nine possessions, the Giants had four punts and turned it over on downs three times. Jaxson Dart was 17-of-24 for 139 yards and a touchdown. Devin Singletary had 12 carries for 68 yards and a touchdown, and Darius Slayton caught two passes for 41 yards and a touchdown.

Nick Folk lined a 56-yard field goal through a heavy mist as time expired to lead the New York Jets to a 27-24 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.

In a game between two struggling teams that was anything but pretty, Folk’s kick was also far from it. But in tough conditions, the 41-year-old got just enough on the football and was mobbed at midfield by his teammates as the Jets fans in a drenched and half-empty MetLife Stadium went wild.

Tyrod Taylor went 19 of 33 for 172 yards and a touchdown pass and also ran for a score in his second start for the benched Justin Fields as the Jets (3-9) snapped a two-game skid. Adonai Mitchell had eight receptions for 102 yards and a TD, and Breece Hall ran for 68 yards and a score.

After the defense held Kirk Cousins and the Falcons to a three-and-out, the Jets got the ball back at their 43 with 35 seconds left. Taylor hit Mitchell on the drive to put Folk in position for his winner.

Cousins went 21 of 33 for 234 yards and a touchdown and Bijan Robinson ran for 142 yards and a score and caught five passes for 51 yards for the Falcons (4-8), who lost for the sixth time in seven games.
