Each weekend in our Video Game Round-Up, we spotlight a few stories that didn’t make the front page during the week. Here are all the stories from this week’s Round-Up: - ‘Battlefield Hardline’ Easter Egg Nerfed It seems the American Dream will no longer be as amazing as we once thought. No, we’re not talking about the metaphorical goal of so many Americans for financial and social success; we mean the drive-able couch Easter Egg found in Battlefield Hardline, which the developer named American Dream....

In a recent post on the Skyrim Subreddit, user Daftfunkster has posted a very short clip of them playing the game. In the brief video, the player can be seen attacking a nearby deer with magic. As the slow-motion death animation plays out, the animal in question decides to have one last “hurrah” before it kicks the bucket. In its final moments, it shuffles off its mortal coil by doing a fairly impressive backflip before falling lifelessly onto the cold ground....

IBS is a gastrointestinal disorder that affects 10 percent of the world’s population. People with it display a wide array of symptoms and respond to a range of treatments, but the underlying causes of the condition are still uncertain. Disparate theories exist to explain the various symptoms of IBS, but Brennan Spiegel, director of Health Services Research at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, has told Newsweek that these might be linked by a single unifying factor....

For context, West Bromwich Albion – who finished bottom – made some £95 million for taking part in the Premier League last season. Only Juventus made more money than that from competing in the 2016-17 Champions League. That money is set to increase - in the short-term at least - with a new broadcast deal kicking in the season after next. And one of Fulham or Villa – along with already-promoted Wolves and Cardiff City – are ready to share in that bonanza....

Rory McIlroy headlines the field after winning by seven shots over Patrick Rodgers and Webb Simpson last year. But last season’s Wells Fargo was McIlroy’s last win on the PGA Tour (he did win the European Tour Championship) as he struggled with injury and a few late collapses.

By looking at last week’s perfect lineup, we can hopefully spot trends that can help us going forward. Something that stands out this week is the presence of two high-priced backs, Ezekiel Elliott and Alvin Kamara. Some owners shy away from the expesive studs at certain positions in GPPs, but these guys can pay off just as well in tournaments as they can in cash games.

Some other spots that caught my eye are the Dolphins returning home to face a Titans pass defense that just got destroyed by the Texans, the Cardinals traveling to Philadelphia to face the Eagles’ awful cornerbacks, and the Steelers facing a difficult matchup against the Jaguars (did someone day “great leverage play in GPPs”?).

Giants RB David Wilson, who got the start and scored an early touchdown, left the game against the Eagles after suffering a neck injury on the final play of the first quarter. Wilson immediately went to the locker room and then appeared on the sidelines in the second quarter, but eventually returned to the locker room. Wilson was originally listed as "questionable" to return, but was eventually ruled out for the rest of the game....

This week, we kept Alabama, Georgia, Clemson and Ohio State in the College Football Playoff — but did switch up the championship game for the first time since our preseason projections were released.

As usual, injuries and bad matchups are the main things to look at when trying to figure out who to start and who to sit, and this week has a couple of standout examples up and down the spectrum of players. From studs like Matt Ryan and Ezekiel Elliott to a recent pickup like Cameron Meredith to injury concerns like Arian Foster and Gary Barnidge, there’s a little something for everyone here....

Cam Newton, QB, Panthers. Newton exploded for 242 passing yards with three touchdown tosses and added 30 rushing yards with another score on the ground without turning the ball over. It’s been an up-and-down season so far for Newton, but there’s a lot of “up” left. High fives for the Eagles’ Nick Foles, the Lions’ Matthew Stafford and the Bengals’ Andy Dalton, who also cracked 30 fantasy points apiece....

Our RB handcuff chart once again got a fresh update after last week’s roster moves and developments, and that will have an impact on potential handcuff claims to top backs. Additionally, we’ll be watching some of the top backs attempting to return from injury this week. Notably, Dalvin Cook was a surprise inactive after being expected to play against the Cardinals, so his status will bear monitoring ahead of Week 7....
