Bill Clinton is hospitalized with a fever but in good spirits, spokesperson saysATLANTA (AP) — Even the woeful NFC South, where no team has a winning record, can't hide the Atlanta Falcons' offensive shortcomings. Three straight setbacks, including an ugly to the Los Angeles Chargers, has left the Falcons 6-6 and feeling the pressure. Only a tiebreaker advantage over Tampa Bay has kept the Falcons atop the division. Now the Falcons must prepare to visit streaking Minnesota, which has . Veteran defensive tackle Grady Jarrett knows the Falcons must solve the flaws which have been exposed in the losing streak. “It’s now or never,” Jarrett said. “You have to flip the mindset fast.” Kirk Cousins threw four interceptions in the loss, matching his career high. Coach Raheem Morris said he didn't consider playing rookie Michael Penix Jr. against the Chargers and won't think about this week. Morris acknowledged the Falcons can't expect to win when turning the ball over four times. It was the latest example of Atlanta's offensive decline. In the three-game losing streak, Cousins has thrown six interceptions with no touchdowns. The Falcons were held under 20 points in each loss. What’s working If not for the rash of interceptions which has contributed to the scoring problems, more attention would be devoted to the surge of big plays on defense. The defense forced two fumbles and set a season high with five sacks, including two by Arnold Ebiketie. The Falcons ranked last in the league with only 10 sacks before finding success with their pass rush against Justin Herbert. Herbert was forced to hold the ball while looking for an open receiver, so some credit for the pass-rush success belongs to Atlanta's secondary. The Falcons gave up only two first downs in the second half and 187 yards for the game. What needs help Cousins, 36, was expected to be the reliable leader on offense after he signed The four interceptions were his most since 2014 with Washington. Cousins now will be in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons as he returns to Minnesota, his NFL home from 2018-23. Cousins has thrown 13 interceptions, one shy of his career high set in 2022. His passer rating of 90.8 is his lowest since his 86.4 mark as a part-time starter in 2014 with Washington. “Certainly when you haven’t played at the standard you want to a few weeks in a row, you know, you do want to change that, turn it around,” Cousins said. Stock up Running back Bijan Robinson had his busiest day of the season, perhaps in an attempt to take heat off Cousins. Robinson's 26 carries set a career high. He ran for 102 yards with a touchdown, his third 100-yard game of the season. He also was heavily involved as a receiver with six catches for 33 yards. With 135 yards from scrimmage, Robinson has eight games this season with more than 100 yards combined as a rusher and receiver, the second-most in the league. Stock down Tight end Kyle Pitts had no catches on only two targets. He has only six catches in the last four games after appearing to establish momentum for a big season with two seven-catch games in a span of three weeks in October. Morris noted the Falcons have “so many people that we've got to get the ball to” but noted he'd like to see Pitts more involved. Injuries Younghoe Koo's were such a concern that kicker Riley Patterson was signed to the practice squad on Friday and added to the active roster Saturday. Patterson was on the inactive list as Koo was good on two of three field goals, missing from 35 yards. Koo has made 21 of 29 attempts this season. He did not have more than five misses in any of his first five seasons with Atlanta. Key number 70 — WR Drake London had nine receptions for 86 yards, giving him 70 catches for the season. London, a 2022 first-round draft pick, is the first player in team history with at least 65 receptions in each of his first three seasons. While Ray-Ray McCloud III led the team with a career-best 95 yards on four catches against the Chargers and Darnell Mooney has had some big games, London has been the most consistent receiver. Next steps The Falcons face a difficult test Sunday in their visit to Minnesota (10-2), which has five straight wins and is 5-1 at home. ___ AP NFL: Charles Odum, The Associated Press

KARACHI: Federal Minister for Petroleum Dr. Musadik Malik accused leaders of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) of not wanting the release of their founder, Imran Khan, during a news conference on Sunday. Dr. Malik emphasized that the government’s priority remains to address public issues, highlighting that its measures have significantly reduced inflation and propelled the stock market to unprecedented levels. He also condemned extremism, noting the dire situation in Parachinar where grieving families have been left without support, criticizing Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur for his absence in these critical times. Further, he critiqued Gandapur’s aggressive stance towards Punjab and Islamabad, questioning the effectiveness of PTI’s leadership as protests fail to materialize in major cities like Lahore, Faisalabad, and Gujranwala. “What happened to his Do or Die rally today? There are voices everywhere saying ‘Arrest me, take me in.’ Where are all the senior PTI leaders?” Dr. Malik asked, suggesting a disconnect within PTI ranks. Dr. Malik concluded by challenging the opposition’s commitment to the nation’s progress, questioning the whereabouts of the millions of supporters PTI claimed would mobilize at its call.

Mayfield said his end zone celebration during the Bucs' 30-7 victory at MetLife Stadium was a "tribute" to New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito . With 20 seconds to go in the first half, Mayfield scrambled up the middle and hurdled Giants cornerback Cordale Flott into the end zone for a 10-yard touchdown. He then shot up, raised both arms into the air, curled his fingers and pumped his arms wildly towards the fans in a move that has become a signature of DeVito's and a nod to his Italian heritage. "It was a tribute. A tribute to Tommy," Mayfield, who swore it was unplanned, said with a deadpanned expression. "He's a good dude." Added Mayfield: "Most of the time, I don't know what I'm gonna do so ... spontaneous stuff. New York fans love Tommy here, so give 'em something they like." Mayfield was then asked if he, too, was Italian. "I haven't done a 23andme but I don't know," he deadpanned. DeVito said he was unaware of Mayfield's celebration until he was informed after the game. "They were having a good game. They celebrated,," DeVito said. "It is what it is. Kind of happened last year. It's going to happen I guess." Mayfield suffered a stinger in the game after colliding with multiple teammates while trying to recover a fourth-quarter fumble. It required him to visit the blue injury tent but did not force him to miss a down.

"Feel good though." Mayfield said he and DeVito met briefly in Las Vegas at the Super Bowl this past year. "He had his chain blinged out, swag, walking through the casino. It was awesome," Mayfield said. "It was like a movie scene, honestly. ... He's got that swag man." Mayfield's teammates loved the move. "I didn't know he was gonna do that," said Irving, who rushed for 87 yards on 12 carries with a touchdown and tacked on 64 receiving yards. "I mean, he got in there and then pretty much did it, and we were all happy for him." "Baker, he just invigorates the entire team," cornerback Zyon McCollum added. "All the stuff he does -- that was a crazy play, him jumping in there like that, hurdling a guy. He's more slippery than you anticipate. But having a quarterback who has passion like that and grit like that ... we all feed off of it." The Giants, however, didn't find the humor in Mayfield's celebration. "That's what happens when you lose," Giants receiver Darius Slayton said after the game. "When you lose, you allow people to do stuff like that." Bucs coach Todd Bowles said he didn't see Mayfield's celebration but praised his starting quarterback, who completed 24-of-30 passes for 294 passing yards. Mayfield's rushing touchdown was one of four on the ground by the Bucs. "He did a heck of a job," Bowles said. "Baker just plays ball. He loves playing ball. He had some great scrambles. He bought some time. He made some runs. He played a heck of a ball game." ESPN's Jordan Raanan contributed to this report.Fintech Power Move: Brigit's $460 Million Acquisition by Upbound Group

Embattled Japanese automaker Nissan has tapped Jeremie Papin, who was overseeing its U.S. operations, as its chief operating officer in a major management reshuffle billed as key to a turnaround. The move was announced in the United States on Thursday. It means Papin, chairman of Nissan’s Americas Management Committee, replaces Stephen Ma, who will oversee Nissan Motor Corp’s China operations. Ma’s replacement had been speculated about for some time, given Nissan’s problems in the key U.S. market, lately dominated by Tesla, Toyota and Ford. Last month, Nissan said it was slashing 9,000 jobs, or about 6% of its global work force, and reducing global production capacity by 20% after reporting a quarterly loss of 9.3 billion yen. That was a reversal from the 190.7 billion yen profit recorded the same quarter a year ago. Sales for the quarter through September fell to 2.9 trillion yen from 3.1 trillion yen. Chief Executive Makoto Uchida took a 50% pay cut to take responsibility for the results and acknowledged Nissan needed to become more efficient and respond better to market tastes, rising costs and other global changes. “These executive changes reflect the experience and urgency needed to get the company back on track,” Uchida said in a statement. “Nissan will continue to focus on future growth and steadily execute these turnaround efforts to ensure sustainable profitability.” Papin will steer a recovery, given his experience in strategy, business development and investment banking, according to Nissan, which makes the Leaf electric car, Rogue SUV and Infiniti luxury models. As part of the moves, effective Jan 1, Christian Meunier, the former chief executive of Jeep, returns to Nissan as chairman of the Americas Management Committee. Asako Hoshino will continue to oversee the customer experience, while Shohei Yamazaki, China Management Committee chairman, takes over a part of her role and will oversee the Japan-ASEAN region. Last month, Fitch lowered its outlook on Nissan from stable to negative, citing its performance in the North American market, noting it may lower its ratings if weakness continues. Nissan’s stock price has declined steadily over the last half year from about 500 yen to about 360 yen. The appointment of Guillaume Cartier as chief performance officer, a key figure in coordinating the managerial shifts, took effect Dec 1. He previously oversaw Nissan’s operations in Africa, the Middle East, India, Europe and Oceania. More changes are coming in April, according to Nissan, “to build a slimmer, flatter management structure that can respond flexibly and swiftly to changes in the business environment.”
