The PW5A3 is a powerful little SMG that can rinse through foes with relative ease. The following build for this SMG leans into its strengths and focuses on aim-down-sight gunplay instead of shooting from the hip. With a few levels into the gun, this PW5A3 build will see you cleaning up entire squads. Best PW5A3 build This PW5A3 build focuses on increasing the Precision and Control stats. These stats ensure the bullets are grouped tighter and make the gun easier to control when firing full auto. Read over our guide that explains Battlefield 6’s weapon stats for more insight. Suppressor: Standard Suppressor Barrel: Basic Underbarrel: 6H64 Vertical Magazine: 30 Fast Ammo Type: Frangible Sights: OSA-7 1. 00X Ergonomics: Mag Catch Start the build using the Standard Suppressor. While this offers no advantage to Precision or Control like the Brakes, it does ensure you’re hidden on the map when firing this is critical when moving around in close quarters, as is required for SMGs. The Underbarrel is where we get a lot of the stat boosts. The Stubby grip offers greater stats, but it is much more expensive, and that ultimately means you miss out on some other attachments that make the PW4A3 a beast. For this reason, we go with the 6H64 Vertical. For the Magazine and Ergonomics, go with the 30 Fast and Mag Catch to make reloading extremely zippy. You can down a foe in four headshots, but if you mainly hit center of mass and need to reload, you won’t be waiting long before continuing your spree. Once you level up the gun a bit more, slap on the Frangible ammo. These rounds delay the health regeneration of anyone you hit, allowing you to keep the pressure on your foe even when they’re behind cover. Don’t use Hollow Point or Synthetic, as the percentage increase does little to improve the time-to-kill. Finally, the Sights might be the one area where personal preference comes into play. For me, the OSA-7 1. 00X offers a clean profile, which means you aren’t blocking your vision with a chunky scope. The drawback is that it does not offer any magnification. However, you shouldn’t really be using an SMG to make long, potshots anyway. If you dislike it, try one with magnification, just note you will lose a lot of your peripheral vision.

Bears Give Grim Update on Rookie Who Suffered Injury vs. Giants
The Chicago Bears pulled out a 24-20 win over the New York Giants on Sunday in front of their home crowd. However, before securing the victory, the team provided a grim update on the injury status of fourth-round rookie linebacker Ruben Hyppolite II.
Hyppolite exited in the third quarter of Week 10’s game — his first active game since September — due to a knee injury. Initially designated as “questionable” by the team, his status was later updated to out for the remainder of the game after about 40 minutes. The Bears’ communications team confirmed the update on X during Sunday’s game, stating:
“#Bears LB Ruben Hyppolite II (Knee) has been downgraded to OUT.”
Bears head coach Ben Johnson acknowledged Hyppolite’s knee injury during his postgame press conference but did not provide further details on the extent of the injury. Notably, the coach did not receive any questions from the press regarding Hyppolite’s current status.
This knee injury is a tough break for the rookie linebacker. Hyppolite had played 18 defensive snaps and 62 special teams snaps across the first four games of the season. However, after veteran T. J. Edwards returned following Week 5’s bye, Hyppolite was a healthy scratch for four consecutive games before finally seeing action again on Sunday against the Giants.
The Bears may share more details about Hyppolite’s injury during Coach Johnson’s media availability on Monday. Otherwise, fans will have to wait for the Wednesday injury report ahead of Chicago’s Week 11 road game against the Minnesota Vikings for the next official update.
The Bears (6-3) will square off against the Vikings (4-5) in a rematch at 1 p.m. ET next Sunday.

Villanova Flushes the Royals, Defeats Queens NC 94-74
After a tough loss in the opener against BYU on Monday, the Wildcats bounced back with a convincing win over Queens University of Charlotte. Villanova never trailed throughout the game, with their largest lead reaching 22 points.
Leading the Wildcats in scoring once again was sophomore guard Bryce Lindsay, who poured in 25 points along with 3 rebounds and 2 assists. While Lindsay wasn’t as effective from beyond the arc, he compensated by going 10-for-11 from the free-throw line.
Freshman guard Acaden Lewis recovered nicely from his rough debut, scoring 21 points on 9-of-13 shooting from the field. He also contributed 4 rebounds and 4 assists in 35 minutes of play, impressively committing no turnovers.
Lewis wasn’t the only freshman to step up after their first collegiate game. Freshman Matthew Hodge dominated inside, going 8-for-10 from the field on his way to 18 points. This interior strength was a major theme for Villanova, as they outscored the Royals 62-38 in the paint.
Leading the paint dominance was senior center Duke Brennan, who had a monster game with 17 points and 20 rebounds, including 11 offensive boards. Brennan has been a consistent presence inside for Villanova on both ends of the floor.
The Wildcats were once again short-handed, playing without junior forward Zion Stanford (ankle) and freshman guard Chris Jeffrey, who suffered an ankle injury in practice on Friday.
Queens University was led by senior Nasir Mann, who scored 21 points on 9-of-11 shooting. Villanova was effective in limiting Royals’ standout Chris Ashby, who managed only 11 points on just 5 shot attempts.
Villanova’s next opponent is Sacred Heart, with the game scheduled for Tuesday night at the Finneran Pavilion.

Lamar Jackson Warns Ravens After 3rd-Straight Win
Three straight wins and a victory in his 100th NFL start aren’t enough to make Lamar Jackson completely satisfied. The star quarterback has sent a clear warning to his Baltimore Ravens teammates about maintaining momentum after their 27-19 win over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 10.
Speaking after the game at U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday, November 9, Jackson told reporters, including ESPN’s Jamison Hensley, “There’s still a lot of ball left, you know? You gotta stay locked in. You can’t get complacent or nothing like that, you gotta stay locked in.” While addressing the media, Jackson’s message was really aimed at his own team— a tacit warning not to get too buoyed by their recent mini revival.
This is a timely message from the team’s key playmaker and natural leader. Jackson knows the suddenly red-hot Ravens can go much further than their current 4-5 record. If they do, it will be thanks in large part to the continued excellence of the two-time NFL MVP, who’s thriving back at the controls of their offense.
### Lamar Jackson Powering Ravens’ Revival
Even though Jackson threw for only one touchdown—a two-yarder to All-Pro tight end Mark Andrews in the fourth quarter—he underlined his value to the Ravens in multiple ways. He rushed nine times for 36 yards and, more importantly, stayed efficient against pressure from the Vikings defense.
Jackson was always going to be under siege from a Vikings defense designed and called by Brian Flores. Known as one of the most creative and blitz-happy defensive coordinators in the league, Flores lived up to his reputation by sending extra rushers after Jackson early and often.
Fortunately for the Ravens, No. 8 adapted his game brilliantly to beat the blitz. The Vikings blitzed Jackson on 58% of his dropbacks Sunday—the 5th-highest rate of his career. Jackson reacted by getting the ball out of his hands quickly, averaging only 4.1 air yards per attempt, which was his lowest average in a game with 20+ attempts in his career, according to ESPN Research cited by Hensley.
Leaning into the quick game was how Jackson found a way to win. This approach has defined his century of starts in the pros, even if Baltimore’s QB1 wasn’t fully aware of his own career milestone.
### Lamar Jackson Not Focused on History
Jackson told Hensley he didn’t “know anything about” this being his 100th start, “but it’s cool to get a win on the 100th start, that’s pretty dope.” Whether or not Jackson was as oblivious to history as he claims, he remains the player who largely determines whether the Ravens win or lose. He’s also the player who safeguards the fate of head coach John Harbaugh.
Jackson has faced pressure earlier this season, but Harbaugh knows when Jackson is healthy, anything is possible. Perhaps that’s why Harbaugh proclaimed after the win in Minnesota, “In his mind, he’s just beginning,” as reported by Hensley.
Harbaugh had better hope so, because Jackson staying upright and on form is still the best chance for the coach—who has led the team since 2008—to finally deliver another championship.
### Looking Ahead: Staying Locked In
Talk of a title remains nothing but hot air for this season’s Ravens, who first have to get firmly back into playoff contention. It’s why Jackson, the man most responsible for making that happen, is letting his teammates know they can’t rest on their laurels after rebounding from four straight losses.
Staying locked in, maintaining focus, and continuing this revival will be key for Baltimore as they aim to turn momentum into sustained success down the stretch of the season.

Browns will stick with Dillon Gabriel as their starting QB
The Browns will not change quarterbacks for their Week 11 game against the Ravens.
In a press conference following Sunday’s 27-20 loss to the Jets, Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski was asked if Dillon Gabriel will remain the team’s starter. The coach confirmed that he plans to give the rookie his sixth straight start.
“We’re gonna stick with Dillon,” Stefanski said. “Obviously this is a young player, you’re always trying to get one game better and those types of things. We have to play better as an offense, we have to coach better, all of the above.”
Gabriel completed 17-of-32 passes for 167 yards and two touchdowns while being sacked six times in Sunday’s loss. Although a number of his incompletions were major misses, Stefanski is not yet ready to see what Shedeur Sanders might bring to the helm of the offense in Cleveland.

Giants completely fall apart after Jaxson Dart concussion in brutal loss to Bears
**Giants Suffer Another Heartbreaking Collapse in 24-20 Loss to Bears at Soldier Field**
CHICAGO — The New York Giants relived their worst nightmare Sunday night. Just like three weeks ago in Denver, the Giants’ defense blew a double-digit fourth-quarter lead after dominating play for the first three quarters. Only this time, rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart wasn’t around to keep fighting back, having failed a concussion test between the third and fourth quarters.
Head coach Brian Daboll’s lack of faith in benched veteran Russell Wilson — and Wilson’s own hesitancy — was apparent in the final minutes. The question now looms: can Daboll and defensive coordinator Shane Bowen survive another collapse, marked by allowing two touchdowns in the last four minutes of a 24-20 loss to the Chicago Bears at a blustery Soldier Field?
Caleb Williams ran for the go-ahead 17-yard touchdown with 1:47 remaining, after a long run that took the Bears down to the Giants’ 2-yard line on the previous drive. Williams also threw a two-yard touchdown pass to Rome Odunze to start the Bears’ comeback.
One of Daboll’s most regrettable decisions came with 10:19 left in the game when he opted for a field goal from the 1-yard line. While this put the Giants ahead by two scores, 20-10, it proved insufficient against a defense struggling to close out games in today’s NFL.
The Giants’ defense did make a crucial fourth-down stop — their third of the game — while holding a 10-point lead. However, it wasn’t enough. The Bears responded with a 91-yard, 2:17-minute drive culminating in a touchdown that tightened the score, causing the Giants to retreat into an offensive shell.
A three-and-out drive was punctuated by Wilson taking an 11-yard punt, and Jamie Gillan compounding the field position disadvantage with a shanked 26-yard punt.
This meltdown mirrors the Giants’ recent collapse against the Broncos 21 days ago, when they allowed 33 points in the fourth quarter and squandered a 19-point lead in a season-defining loss. Both devastating performances now contribute to the Giants’ franchise-record-tying 10-game road losing streak.
In challenging conditions that included sideways snow flurries and a depleted roster featuring third-string running backs and receivers, Jaxson Dart was nearly flawless during his three quarters on the field. He amassed 308 yards from scrimmage and scored two rushing touchdowns before exiting due to concussion protocol.
Russell Wilson, who was benched after Week 3, reminded fans why during his late-game stint as he threw four straight incompletions to end the game, sealing New York’s fate. Wilson finished with 45 passing yards, but 41 of those came on a catch-and-run by Devin Singletary, who made a crucial play during the drive that led to an 18-yard field goal, putting the Giants ahead 20-10.

Steelers Have Second Opportunity at Training Camp Safety Standout
The Pittsburgh Steelers could use additional safety depth, and recently, safety Sebastian Castro became available.
Castro, who began the season on the Steelers’ practice squad, was waived from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ active roster on Saturday. According to FOX Sports’ Greg Auman, the Buccaneers are “expected to sign back” Castro to their practice squad on Monday. However, before that can happen, Castro will need to clear waivers.
The Steelers have an opportunity to put in a claim for the safety before the 4 p.m. ET waiver deadline on Monday. Alternatively, General Manager Omar Khan could attempt to sign Castro directly to the Pittsburgh practice squad if he clears waivers.
Castro was originally signed by the Steelers as an undrafted free agent in May. He quickly endeared himself to fans as a potential diamond in the rough during training camp and the preseason.
With the possibility of adding a promising safety like Castro, the Steelers could bolster their depth at the position as the season progresses.

“Not my responsibility to have to tell you”: Aaron Glenn snaps at the question on Jets’ starting QB between Justin Fields and Tyrod Taylor
New York Jets defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn has chosen not to outrightly name a starting quarterback ahead of his team’s Week 10 matchup against the Cleveland Browns.
This decision keeps the quarterback position uncertain as the Jets prepare for an important game in the NFL season. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely for any updates on the team’s final roster decisions leading up to the game.

Clayton Kershaw says Dodgers 2017 World Series loss to Astros has an ‘asterisk’
Very few players have exited the game the way Clayton Kershaw has. Fresh off helping the LA Dodgers win the World Series, Kershaw capped off a nearly two-decade career with the team. However, there is one thing he can’t let go of—and from his perspective, understandably so.
During an appearance on his teammate Mookie Betts’ podcast, *At Bat with Mookie Betts*, Kershaw expressed strong feelings that the Dodgers were unfairly treated in the 2017 World Series against the Houston Astros. While he didn’t put it quite so bluntly, his sentiment was clear: “There’s an asterisk on that one,” he said.
Kershaw was reflecting on the last Game 7 he pitched in a World Series, where the Dodgers lost 5-1, ultimately losing the championship. However, the legitimacy of the Astros’ win was called into question after it was revealed they had orchestrated an elaborate sign-stealing scheme. This scandal compromised their title, leading to sanctions against many involved personnel. According to the record books, the Astros defeated the Dodgers, but the controversy has lingered ever since.
This isn’t the first time Kershaw has spoken out about the issue. In 2023, he emphasized the need to distinguish the Astros’ sign-stealing from other teams that have also stolen signs.
Interestingly, during the 2017 World Series, Blue Jays slugger George Springer faced backlash from Dodgers fans—largely because he was named the World Series MVP.
### How the Dodgers Were Caught in the Web of Sign-Stealing by Other Teams
The 2017 scandal wasn’t the first time the Dodgers were victimized by sign-stealing in a high-stakes series. Back in 1951, when the Dodgers were still based in Brooklyn, they were locked in a fierce battle with the then-New York Giants.
The Giants mounted a remarkable comeback, erasing a 13.5-game deficit by winning 37 of their final 44 games to tie the Dodgers in the National League standings. This deadlock set up a three-game playoff.
On October 3, 1951, Bobby Thomson hit what became known as “The Shot Heard ‘Round the World,” securing the series win for the Giants. Years later, it was revealed the Giants had been using a sign-stealing system involving a telescope positioned in the back of the Polo Grounds.
As a result, many argue that the Giants effectively stole the pennant. However, history has shown this claim to be inconclusive, considering the Giants’ strong overall offensive performance throughout the season.

The lingering debates over these sign-stealing incidents highlight the complexities of fairness and legacy in baseball history—an issue that continues to resonate with players like Clayton Kershaw and fans alike.
