Modi will also visit the Russian Emercom agency, a centre for national disaster management forces, where he will be briefed on the real-time monitoring of civil emergencies.
McCarron appreciated all of it as he made his first career start with a playoff berth on the line, and he methodically led the Cincinnati Bengals to a 24-14 win against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday to secure a fifth straight postseason berth.

Was it the year she won? Wow! We can’t say we’re shocked! I just, you know, I’m very opinionated. Watch Lawrence’s interview, including her admission about getting high before the Oscars, below.
This was really the first ugly home game of the year, and maybe the team has quit on him.
DENVER QB: The Bengals QB situation is nowhere near as complex as what Denver has. f Andy Dalton is week-to-week, then on Monday Broncos head coach Gary Kubiak said Brock Osweiler is day-to-day after injuring his non-throwing shoulder Sunday against the Steelers.
I don t think you can put it all on Jimmy, Reid said.
Running back Jeremy Hill continued his goal line dominance this season, scoring two one-yard touchdown rushes in the Bengals’ dominant second quarter.
– Gabbert’s bid to produce a fourth-quarter comeback basically ended when the Bengals intercepted him for a third time Sunday. Like so many road games this season, the San Francisco squad came out and got pounded in the first half, falling behind 21-0. Not until he backed off defensively late in the game did San Francisco move the ball consistently. A couple of times, he protected the ball and took a sack instead of risking a fumble or interception.

I have to take the points here, as Cincinnati is just as good of a team as Denver, and the backup QB’s cancel out each other. “But we played in an empty stadium”, Smith said. “We want to get rid of the ball”.

Retro end zones were painted at Levi’s Stadium, which appeared about half-full on a day San Francisco held a halftime reunion of the 1981 and ’88 Super Bowl champion teams that beat the Bengals – Cincinnati’s only two Super Bowl appearances. We slacked off in the second half as an offense. It snapped Dawson’s streak of 19 consecutive successful attempts. He took advantage of the opportunity and finished with a 40-plus yard performance for the third time in the last four games. The Bengals have 132 yards rushing the past two games.
