NYT Connections Sports Edition hints and answers for July 27: Tips to solve Connections #672

Today’s Connections: Sports Edition for July 27 features a framework built for quick pattern spotting, with the puzzle resetting after midnight. The New York Times game—launched in association with The Athletic—asks players to group 16 words into four categories, with only one correct set for each category. Words are removed once a group is correct, and wrong guesses count toward up to four mistakes. The board can be shuffled to help find links, and difficulty is color-coded: yellow (easiest), then green, blue, and purple. For this date’s #672, the categories include NFL teams whose nicknames start with B, NHL teams with nicknames starting with B, items tied to Cincinnati, and words in Bundesliga clubs’ names; the article also lists the full answers and today’s Wordle reference.
