The Broncos’ first scoring drive was off an 11-play, 75-yard drive in the second quarter. That followed four drives that included three three-and-outs and an interception....

The Nets are in their best form of the season behind a stellar defense. They’ll hope to extend the Bulls’ misery with another win on the road. The Chicago Bulls are reeling from two straight losses to the undermanned Philadelphia 76ers, who were without Tobias Harris and Ben Simmons. Coach Billy Donovan’s team will need more production from the roster to get out of their two-game losing skid. The Bulls have promised to get All-Star center Nikola Vucevic more involved in the offense....

Brown was accused by his former trainer Britney Taylor of sexual assault and rape, while a second unnamed woman has also made allegations of sexual misconduct against the New England Patriots wide receiver. Brown has strongly denied the allegations through his attorney and the 31-year-old opted against discussing the matter further when he was questioned on his continued availability for NFL action. Speaking to reporters in the Patriots locker room, Brown said: “I appreciate that question....

When the Giants won the National League pennant, it punched Bochy’s ticket to a fourth career World Series — three with the Giants, plus 1998 with the Padres — and all 22 previous managers to win four pennants have gained election to Cooperstown, including the three inductees from this summer: Bobby Cox, Tony La Russa and Joe Torre. When the Giants won the World Series, Bochy earned his third ring, joining an even more elite group of skippers....

The Spaniard claimed his first Irish Open victory at Portstewart two years ago and earned a confidence-boosting triumph in Lahinch at the start of this month. Rahm comes from Barrika, a town in the Basque Country in northern Spain, and enjoys a strong feeling of familiarity in Northern Ireland for the 148th Open Championship this week. “I just like it. Ever since the first time I played here, in Portstewart two years ago, the Irish crowd is treating me very, very specially,” he said....

“I just got a call from the surgeon. He made it through the surgery, which is really big because obviously his body is pretty weak,” Kloots said in a video shared to her Instagram Story. “They’re taking him back to the room to recover and rest for the rest of the night.” Cordero, who most recently appeared in Hollywood’s Rock of Ages revival, lives in Los Angeles with Kloots and their 10-month-old son....

Brock Osweiler’s fourth-quarter heroics coupled with a stout Broncos defense helped set up a walk-off touchdown run by C.J. Anderson in overtime that handed New England its first loss this season, a 30-24 decision at a snowy Mile High Stadium. Trailing by four points with 2:31 in the fourth quarter, Osweiler’s impression of injured starter Peyton Manning was spot on during the five-play, 83-yard drive that ended in a touchdown pass to Andre Caldwell and gave the Broncos a 24-21 lead....

The country’s littlest citizens can perhaps be forgiven for looking askance at the chief executive’s post. The memory of Sukarno’s jetting around the world with one arm raised in defiance and the other wrapped around a shapely stewardess has long faded. By all accounts Suharto and his family pocketed dizzying riches during his 32-year reign, but he was deeply loathed and ousted ignominiously. Indonesia’s current president, Abdurrahman Wahid, has spent most of his brief tenure putting out violent brush fires across the country or fighting parliamentary efforts to impeach him....

The Broncos finished the season 5-11 after Sunday’s 27-24 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, but Joseph will get another chance to prove himself. Elway met with the coach on Monday and informed him he would be retained for the 2018 season - his second season in charge. Joseph signed a four-year deal with the Broncos in January 2016 after replacing Gary Kubiak, the latter retiring due to health concerns....

Last season, the Broncos improved a game to 7-9, after finishing 6-10 in 2018 and 5-11 in 2017. That consistent one-win increase also has seen Denver go from fourth to third to second in the AFC West behind the Chiefs. There is some momentum from 2019, as the Broncos closed 4-1 following a 3-8 start. They also have a definitive answer at quarterback with second-year second-rounder Drew Lock. How will Vic Fango, in his second year as head coach, get his team to further improve in 2020?...

With reports swirling that the team may play elsewhere in 2019 before moving to Las Vegas the following year, the Raiders delivered one of their most complete games of the season. They took a lead early on in the first quarter and never looked back, beating the Broncos 27-14 in a battle of the third and fourth place teams in the AFC West.

“I don’t think a ball would have stayed,” Koepka said after play was stopped at The Open Championship. “The guys we were playing with even backed off five, six times. I’ve never seen a ball move like that in winds like that. When you’re on the most exposed hole like 11 and the wind is pumping there with gusts (of 45 mph), if I had to guess, it’s not exactly playable in my opinion....

While Pittsburgh prepare for their NFL opener against the Cleveland Browns, three-time Pro Bowler Bell is nowhere to be seen. Running back Bell is sitting on a $14.5million franchise tag he has yet to sign, and will become a free agent after this season only if he signs it by week 11. Steelers wide receiver Brown discussed the situation and the turmoil that ensued when other players spoke out against Bell with reporters Friday....

But at least Baltimore has a chance. The Browns (7-8 SU, 8-6-1 ATS) have fallen out of playoff contention after four consecutive losses.
