Saudi Arabia executes 47; Shiites enraged
The greatest criticism has come from Iran, directed specifically at the killing of 57-year-old Shia cleric Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr. Saudi Arabia carried out more than 150 executions last year, the highest figure recorded by human rights groups for 20 years.
The Chiefs take on the hapless Cleveland Browns and if they win and Denver falls to the Chargers, there will be a tie for the top spot in the AFC West.
India capital starts limiting cars for 2 weeks to clear air
Transport Minister Gopal Rai said all arrangements were in place to handle the situation on Monday when all offices open. Traffic police were quick to fine them a steep 2,000 rupees (40 USA dollars).
The Chargers front seven has done slightly better against the run over the last four games giving up 4.05 yards per carry given they have given up 4.79 yards per carry over the entire season.
Stokes, Bairstow thrash South African bowlers
Stokes also set the highest score by a test batsman at number six, passing a 39-year-old mark held by Australian Doug Walters. South Africa, already staring at a big defeat and a 2-0 series deficit, was fighting at 141-2 at stumps, still 488 behind.
If Manning plays on Sunday as the backup, it will be the first time in his long and illustrious career in the National Football League (NFL) that the role is given to him. He’s still with the Broncos and now appears healthy and ready to … back up Brock Osweiler?
“Obviously it means a lot”, Osweiler said. I believe that, if Osweiler can play well for 4 quarters instead of 2, there isn’t much of a debate who should start in the postseason.
Osweiler has won four of his six starts, including in overtime against New England and Cincinnati. Right now, the team’s biggest concern is beating the struggling Chargers and if they can do that, they might just be able to swing a first round bye in the playoffs and the No. 2 seed.
Manning refused to look beyond the upcoming game. “Let’s make this be their last home game, let’s find a way to do that. We’re going to get a playoff-type atmosphere even though it’ll be the end of it for us”. It’s been a trying week for the No. 1 tackler on the top-ranked defense.
Brandon Marshall’s sprained right ankle aches.
“We knew he was sick but it kind of came out of the blue a little bit”. There have been rumors that he wants to play next year, but I just don’t see it happening after everything he’s endured this year. While the Chiefs have plenty of motivation going into today’s game (see San Diego at Denver notes), I am hoping the Raiders are motivated enough to spoil the Chiefs final regular season game, as well as conclude their season with a huge victory. “I knew his condition was worsening”. “It’s a combination of [Manning’s] health as he’s worked his way back to being available for this football team and I also think that Brock has done one helluva a job with the football team and his opportunity”.
No matter which quarterback Denver goes with, it may be tough to get to the Superbowl. Who will win this game? Denver had a short week following the Monday night win over the Bengals, so any added time to heal would be a real blessing heading into the playoffs.
“It was a shock”, special teams coordinator Joe DeCamillis said. “And I’m still angry about it”.
Kubiak insists his faith in his kicker is unshaken.
As I always say, the Denver Broncos have the best home field advantage in the league because the air is literally more hard to breathe for the away team than it is for the home team. That’s part of his job…
Is this the last game on the sidelines for head coach Mike McCoy?
“Most of all this isn’t about Peyton”, Osweiler said.
The Chargers are in danger of their first winless season in the AFC West since 1984 under Don Coryell.
