Die Arizona Cardinals besiegten die Los Angeles Chargers auswärts mit 26:14 (SoFi Stadium, 13. September 2026) – entgegen der Vorhersage. Obwohl die Chargers mit –9,5 Punkten Spread als klare Favoriten galten, litten sie das gesamte Spiel über und erzielten nur 268 Gesamtyards gegenüber 393 der Cardinals. Kicker Chad Ryland trug vier Field Goals bei; es war Arizonas erster Auswärtssieg in Los Angeles seit 2001 und der größte Upset von Week 1 2026 laut NBC Sports.

Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team clinches the 2026 Formula 1 Constructors' Championship at the Las Vegas Grand Prix (November 21–22, 2026)

Mercedes leads the constructors' standings with 630 points over Ferrari (504) by a 126-point margin (as of Nov 8, 2026; source: grandepremio.com / skysports.com).
