Sept. 26, 2025, 5:00 AM EDTBy Raf Sanchez and Tony BrownCHAWTON, England — By the time she died at just 41, Jane Austen had penned six books that would revolutionize the English novel and created a cultural phenomenon that lasts to this day.Her most famous book, “Pride and Prejudice,” has sold millions of copies, and the story of the tenacious Elizabeth Bennet and the brooding Mr. Darcy has become a fixture on school reading lists around the world, the inspiration for an almost endless stream of movie and television adaptations, not to mention podcasts and social media channels devoted to the work.See more on this story on “TODAY” this morning at 7 a.m. ET.If Austen arrived at the front door of her family home in the English village of Chawton this summer, however, she could be forgiven for thinking it was still the early 1800s.She would find women in bonnets curtseying to men in top hats, couples chastely dancing the quadrille, and the small table where she handwrote her novels almost exactly where she left it.

Oct. 19, 2025, 6:05 AM EDTBy Andrew GreifThe Philadelphia Eagles earned the NFL’s ultimate prize last season, winning the franchise’s second Super Bowl. Yet they weren’t alone among the league’s big winners. Other than the Eagles, no team may have left last season happier than a division rival, Washington. It was an unexpected result. For most of this century, the franchise had produced more investigations at the congressional, federal and state levels than on-field joy. Under owner Daniel Snyder, the team won fewer than half of its games. The team had been rebranded (2020 and 2022) more recently than it had won a playoff game (2005). Attendance fell to the worst in the league in 2022, the final season before Snyder announced he would sell the team. Yet last season, under new ownership, a new coach and rookie-of-the-year quarterback Jayden Daniels, Washington won 12 games and advanced to a conference title game, the first time in 33 seasons either had occurred. With one of the league’s best quarterbacks on a cost-controlled rookie contract, Washington had enormous flexibility to spend to build around Daniels and be “elite over the long term,” owner Josh Harris said after last season. Bookmakers gave only six teams better odds to make the Super Bowl than Washington.”We have a massive opportunity,” Harris said.That opportunity to go from one of the league’s biggest surprises to sustained success has been tested ever since. At 3-3, the Commanders have struggled to build on last season’s breakout success.Last season, their surge began in October after Daniels completed a Hail Mary touchdown to beat the Chicago Bears. It remains to be seen how much one play from their rematch against Chicago last week could dictate the rest of this season.Holding the ball while leading 24-22 with three minutes left in regulation Daniels, playing in wet weather, couldn’t grip a snap and fumbled a handoff attempt that Chicago recovered. The Bears used the turnover to eventually kick a game-winning field goal.”Completely my fault,” Daniels said after the game.The team’s overall struggles aren’t; several of Daniels’ metrics are up in his second season, and Sunday he has a chance to become the first Washington player ever to throw 10 or more passing touchdowns with one or no interceptions through five games (he has thrown seven touchdowns and one pick). But Daniels has been hurt, missing two games, and injuries have also sidelined some of his top targets, including Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown. Still, the Commanders rank in the top 10 in yards per play, and they often their drives turn into scores. Washington’s defense also has been a mixed bag. It has forced just three turnovers, third fewest in the league, and opponents’ possessions end in turnovers about half as often as last season. They have been on the field for 389 defensive snaps, ninth most, yet rank among the league’s better half in points allowed.Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn in Landover on Oct. 13.Scott Taetsch / Getty ImagesWashington has also shown a penchant for falling behind by double digits, doing it in four of their six games, with coach Dan Quinn saying after the loss to the Bears that “we’ve become way too accustomed to digging ourselves out of holes. “All three phases dug the hole, and all three phases helped get out, but we didn’t create enough takeaways. To finish minus-three [against the Bears], you really don’t deserve to win many games in that space.”The next month will be a litmus test for the team’s postseason viability. Sunday, Washington faces the Dallas Cowboys, whose 2-3-1 record doesn’t quite reveal the challenge they could pose. Then there is a Week 8 matchup against a Kansas City Chiefs team that suddenly looks dangerous again and consecutive matchups in Weeks 9 and 10 against two of the NFC’s toughest teams in the Detroit Lions and the Seattle Seahawks. The season closes with four consecutive division games against the New York Giants, Dallas and Philadelphia (twice). One analysis ranks Washington’s remaining schedule as the 15th most difficult in the 32-team league. But as last week’s fumbled handoff showed, nothing in the NFL comes easy.What we’re watching for in Week 7Rams (4-2) at Jaguars (4-2): Something’s got to give during an early start in London. Jacksonville’s 10 interceptions lead the NFL, while Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has thrown only two picks on 209 attempts but has five fumbles. Saints (1-5) at Bears (3-2): Chicago quarterback Caleb Williams would be expected to complete 71.5% of his passes this season, according to the NFL’s Next Gen Stats — which measures factors such as receiver location and a quarterback’s distance from the nearest tackler. Yet Williams has completed only 61.6%, and that 9.9-point gap is the largest completion percentage under expectations in the league. Dolphins (1-5) at Browns (1-5): No defense has allowed opponents to score more than Miami’s, which is allowing points on a league-worst 60% of possessions. Patriots (4-2) at Titans (1-5): In their first game since they fired their coach, the Titans need to try to protect No. 1 pick Cam Ward better. He has been sacked a league-high 25 times, six more than anyone else.Raiders (2-4) at Chiefs (3-3): Kansas City has yet to commit a fumble this season, and it has a league-low two total turnovers in six games. The Raiders have fumbled just once. On the other hand, they’ve thrown a league-high 10 picks. Eagles (4-2) at Vikings (3-2): Saquon Barkley ran behind the NFL’s best offensive line last season, averaging 3.8 yards per carry before being hit. This year, that average has been halved, an indication of injuries to the line and predictability that defenses have figured out. Panthers (3-3) at Jets (0-6): Though Ward has been sacked the most overall (25 times), New York’s Justin Fields has been sacked on a higher percentage of his drop backs, a whopping 13%. The last team to start 0-7 was the 2021 Lions.Giants (2-4) at Broncos (4-2): New York’s Jaxson Dart can become the first rookie quarterback since 1950 to beat three .500 or better teams in his first four starts. Denver’s Nik Bonitto leads the NFL with eight sacks, while the Giants’ Brian Burns ranks third with 7½. Colts (5-1) at Chargers (4-2): The NFL’s top rusher, Jonathan Taylor (603 yards), faces a Chargers defense that struggles to contain the run, allowing 5.0 yards per carry, fifth worst in the league.Commanders (3-3) at Cowboys (2-3-1): Cowboys receiver CeeDee Lamb could return after having missed three games with an ankle sprain. Dallas is 6-0 against Washington at home when quarterback Dak Prescott starts.Packers (3-1) at Cardinals (2-4): Arizona has lost four straight games by four points or less. Meanwhile the Packers are looking for their first 5-1 start since 2021. Falcons (3-2) at 49ers (4-2): Even without starting quarterback Brock Purdy for much of the season, San Francisco averages a league-high 291.5 passing yards. Atlanta’s Michael Penix Jr. averaged 201 yards and threw for one touchdown combined in his first three games this season, but in two games since then, he has thrown three touchdowns, while averaging 281 yards.Buccaneers (5-1) at Lions (4-2) on Monday: Tampa Bay’s Baker Mayfield is building an MVP campaign with 12 passing touchdowns and just one interception. Texans (2-3) at Seahawks (4-2) on Monday: Love defense? This game’s for you. Houston leads the NFL in points allowed (just 12.2 per game), while Seattle ranks sixth (19.5). Houston has allowed only three passing touchdowns in five games. Andrew GreifAndrew Greif is a sports reporter for NBC News Digital.

Oct. 28, 2025, 5:30 PM EDTBy The Politics DeskWelcome to the online version of From the Politics Desk, a newsletter that brings you the NBC News Politics team’s latest reporting and analysis from the White House, Capitol Hill and the campaign trail.In today’s edition, Steve Kornacki explores how Andrew Cuomo could close the gap with Zohran Mamdani in the final week of the NYC mayoral race. Plus, Ben Kamisar digs into how Republicans are shifting more of their ad money down ballot in Virginia. Sign up to receive this newsletter in your inbox every weekday here.— Adam WollnerWhat Cuomo’s narrow path to a NYC comeback would look likeAnalysis by Steve KornackiThe New York City mayoral election may not be a done deal for Zohran Mamdani. The Democratic nominee has enjoyed sizable leads in polling and benefitted from an opposition that’s been divided among multiple rival candidates. And he remains the favorite to win next Tuesday.But there are signs Mamdani has not put the race away yet, chief among them a new Suffolk University poll that shows his lead over former Gov. Andrew Cuomo slipping to 10 points — half of what it was when the same pollster surveyed voters last month. That tightening comes after Mayor Eric Adams dropped his own re-election bid a few weeks ago, with much of his support now moving to Cuomo.Overall, Mamdani leads with 44% support, with Cuomo at 34% and Republican Curtis Sliwa at 11%, according to the new Suffolk poll. That Mamdani’s support level remains under 50% four months after winning the Democratic nomination suggests some real resistance to his candidacy and leaves him vulnerable to any further consolidation of the opposition. Half of Cuomo’s support, the poll finds, is from voters who say they are simply voting against Mamdani. Sliwa remains adamant that he won’t leave the race, and obviously the more support he retains, the safer Mamdani’s position will be. But there’s risk for Mamdani, a democratic socialist, in the volatility of this final week. The volume of attacks is louder, public scrutiny is heightened, and far more New Yorkers are tuned in to absorb it. Reservations about Mamdani that already exist can be reinforced and new ones can be sown. In this atmosphere, the danger for Mamdani is that voters recognize Cuomo as the only viable alternative and essentially do the consolidating themselves — that is, they shun Sliwa, hold their noses, and check off Cuomo’s name. Extrapolating from pre-Election Day voting data can lead to deceptive conclusions, but it’s at least worth noting that the first few days of early voting in New York City have so far yielded an electorate that is older and broader than what was seen in the June Democratic primary. Any chance for Cuomo depends on this becoming a reality. In the Suffolk poll, he leads with voters over 45 years old and gets clobbered among those under 45. Cuomo himself remains a highly imperfect vehicle for the opposition to Mamdani. He continues to be unpopular, with an upside down 42%/47% favorable rating. If this election is a referendum on him, he will lose, easily. And if he wins, it will be in spite of himself — and only because just enough voters ended up having even deeper reservations about his opponent. Virginia Republicans are spending more on the race for attorney general than for governorBy Ben KamisarIn states with high-profile governor’s races, candidates further down the ballot typically rely on the top of the ticket for a boost.But in Virginia, that dynamic has been flipped on its head in the closing stretch of this year’s campaign, at least on the airwaves. Republicans have spent more on TV ads in recent weeks on the race for attorney general — where past violent text messages by the Democratic nominee have roiled the race — than the higher-profile contest for governor, where the GOP candidate is the underdog. The bulk of Republicans’ ad spending in these two races in the state, where campaign finance rules allow outside groups to donate directly to candidates, have come from Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears, the gubernatorial nominee, and Attorney General Jason Miyares.According to the ad-tracking firm AdImpact, Earle-Sears’ campaign spent more than $8.1 million on ads in September, compared to about $5.5 million from the Miyares camp. But those numbers flipped in October — $10.2 million from Miyares and $7.5 million from Earle-Sears.A week-by-week analysis of the ad spending in Virginia underscores how GOP spending has jumped in the attorney general’s race in the final month, as Democratic nominee Jay Jones has faced criticism for suggesting in private text messages three years ago that the then-Republican speaker of the state House get “two bullets to the head.”Recent public polling has shown Earle-Sears trailing Spanberger by anywhere from 7 to 12 percentage points, while finding that the two attorney general candidates are locked in a dead heat.
