- 0:47Speaker 2: So defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks dropped their second game
- 0:50Speaker 2: in five days, losing 17-14 in overtime to the Broncos
- 0:53Speaker 2: in Denver. After a tough but competitive loss to the
- 0:56Speaker 2: division rival Niners on Sunday, Thursday's loss was like a
- 0:59Speaker 2: lower scoring version of that. Seattle only managed three points
- 1:02Speaker 2: through the first 40 plus minutes of the game before
- 1:05Speaker 2: putting together a touchdown and two point conversion drive late
- 1:08Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter to pull within a field goal.
- 1:10Speaker 2: And then Sam Darnold drove them down to kick a
- 1:12Speaker 2: field goal and push this game into overtime. But in
- 1:15Speaker 2: the end, Sam threw a costly interception that set up
- 1:19Speaker 2: the game-winning field goal for Denver. So a lot of
- 1:24Speaker 2: kicker celebrations this season. And, you know, they've been planning
- 1:27Speaker 2: that forever because... They love a good walk-off scenario. The
- 1:31Speaker 2: Jags kicker Cam Little hitting the Jude Bellingham celebration in London.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Ravens kicker Tyler Loop hitting the Ronaldo celebration in Brazil.
- 1:39Speaker 2: Seattle has a long week to look in the mirror
- 1:41Speaker 2: and try to shake this Super Bowl hangover before it
- 1:43Speaker 2: takes down their entire season. As far as the Broncos go,
- 1:46Speaker 2: it would have been nice to put the game out
- 1:48Speaker 2: of reach up 14-3 in the fourth quarter, but you
- 1:51Speaker 2: win how you win and good resiliency to hang on
- 1:53Speaker 2: and get a quality win in that AFC West division.
- 1:56Speaker 2: It's very competitive. beside the uh winless chargers obviously the
- 2:00Speaker 2: broncos will need every win possible when it comes to
- 2:03Speaker 2: seeding in the final weeks of the regular season um
- 2:08Speaker 2: didn't exactly let it rip in this one like sean
- 2:11Speaker 2: payton suggested he should bonix was 17 of 27 for
- 2:17Speaker 2: 107 yards no touchdowns or interceptions and took two sacks
- 2:21Speaker 2: so it wasn't a perfect win but Listen, you'll take
- 2:25Speaker 2: it and maybe save the letter rip for the next game.
- 2:29Speaker 2: The Broncos have at Arizona, Kansas City and Carolina coming up.
- 2:33Speaker 2: So really good win for Broncos. Staying in the NFL
- 2:37Speaker 2: earlier on Thursday, things got from bad to weird and
- 2:42Speaker 2: maybe kind of scary for the Eagles. The team announced
- 2:44Speaker 2: that quarterback Jalen Hurts will miss Sunday's game against the Panthers.
- 2:48Speaker 2: with a superficial blood clot in his calf. He was
- 2:51Speaker 2: listed as a full participant in last Friday's practice before
- 2:54Speaker 2: flying to the UK, playing the full game against the
- 2:58Speaker 2: Jags with no injury designation. So the Eagles released a
- 3:02Speaker 2: statement saying that on Thursday, Jalen visited the training room
- 3:06Speaker 2: after practice and requested treatment for his calf. He practiced
- 3:10Speaker 2: in full and was added to the practice report after
- 3:13Speaker 2: receiving treatment out of abundance of caution. An ultrasound was
- 3:16Speaker 2: performed on Saturday following the team's flight to London and walkthrough,
- 3:20Speaker 2: and the ultrasound revealed a superficial blood clot. Our medical
- 3:23Speaker 2: staff and doctors in London reviewed the results and concluded
- 3:26Speaker 2: activity and mobility were important and that he could play.
- 3:29Speaker 2: On Wednesday night, a follow-up ultrasound revealed movement in the
- 3:32Speaker 2: small blood clot. So Jalen will be out for Sunday's
- 3:35Speaker 2: game against the Panthers as we determine the appropriate course
- 3:37Speaker 2: of treatment. His health and safety are our highest priority.
- 3:40Speaker 2: When asked about the injury on Wednesday, Hurts indicated that
- 3:43Speaker 2: he got nicked against the Rams while hinting that the
- 3:46Speaker 2: lead up to the Jags was not ordinary. It was
- 3:48Speaker 2: a unique experience, he said. To say the least, I
- 3:50Speaker 2: don't want to get into the details kind of leading
- 3:52Speaker 2: up to the game, but I got nicked up in
- 3:54Speaker 2: the Rams game. This is a major, major concern. Anytime
- 4:00Speaker 2: blood clots become a part of the conversation, it can
- 4:04Speaker 2: get very scary. And they're also using very cryptic language,
- 4:08Speaker 2: which I understand in this situation, you don't want to
- 4:11Speaker 2: make things sound worse than they are, and you don't
- 4:13Speaker 2: really have answers, so you don't want to say too much.
- 4:16Speaker 2: But them holding him back and being in international flights,
- 4:22Speaker 2: him getting hurt against LA, and then still dealing with this,
- 4:26Speaker 2: it's really, really scary. And the Eagles have already dealt
- 4:29Speaker 2: with a ton of injuries this season, They've had a
- 4:32Speaker 2: lot of questions about their offense already, so this is
- 4:37Speaker 2: not a good situation for them to be in, but
- 4:38Speaker 2: obviously the health of Jalen Hurts is their number one priority,
- 4:42Speaker 2: and they need to take this very seriously, which I'm
- 4:44Speaker 2: glad that they are, because blood clots are no joke.
- 4:48Speaker 2: Tanner McKee is expected to start in place of Hurts
- 4:50Speaker 2: against the Panthers, and fifth-round rookie Cole Payton is also
- 4:54Speaker 2: on the roster. They have Carolina, Dallas, and Washington coming up,
- 4:59Speaker 2: but obviously all eyes are going to be on Jalen
- 5:01Speaker 2: Hurts and making sure that they handled that injury seriously.
- 5:05Speaker 2: And hopefully it is nothing that is ongoing or, or
- 5:09Speaker 2: too big of an issue to happen back on the field,
- 5:12Speaker 2: but most importantly for longevity. And finally, the Dodgers quest
- 5:16Speaker 2: for three straight world series titles ended in dramatic fashion.
- 5:20Speaker 2: The two time defending champions were swept by the Milwaukee
- 5:24Speaker 2: Brewers pitcher. Jojo Romero came on in relief and went one, two, three,
- 5:29Speaker 2: through three MVPs in Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, and Freddie Freeman.
- 5:33Speaker 2: That's a story you can brag on when you retire.
- 5:35Speaker 2: This Dodgers team is incredibly talented and incredibly expensive, but
- 5:40Speaker 2: it can't be your year every year. Shohei Ohtani was
- 5:42Speaker 2: playing hurt, and that was obvious. Last postseason, he hit
- 5:45Speaker 2: eight home runs, and the Dodgers marched to a second
- 5:48Speaker 2: straight World Series. This year, Shohei hit his first home
- 5:52Speaker 2: run of the postseason on Thursday night in Game 4
- 5:55Speaker 2: of the National League Championship Series. Despite breaking his 25-game
- 5:59Speaker 2: home run drought to help build a 4-0 lead, the
- 6:01Speaker 2: Brewers slowly chipped away. One run lead in the top
- 6:05Speaker 2: of the ninth. David Hamilton doubled the lead with a
- 6:09Speaker 2: solo shot, and he had 18 career home runs through
- 6:13Speaker 2: four seasons. So if it wasn't clear that it wasn't
- 6:15Speaker 2: the Dodgers' year, that did the trick. I think this
- 6:18Speaker 2: is good. I think it's good for baseball. It shows
- 6:21Speaker 2: that no matter how much money you spend and how
- 6:24Speaker 2: many stars you have, any year can be the year
- 6:27Speaker 2: where things don't necessarily go your way. They're incredibly talented
- 6:30Speaker 2: and they are built for the long run. So I'm
- 6:32Speaker 2: sure they're going to be back again next year. And,
- 6:37Speaker 2: you know, I think in general, having dynasties have a
- 6:40Speaker 2: little bit of an up and down is an important
- 6:44Speaker 2: part of building rivalries and it's good for the game.
- 6:48Speaker 2: And congrats to the Brewers who came back from down
- 6:52Speaker 2: 4-0 in game four to advance their first World Series
- 6:55Speaker 2: since 1982. So, exciting stuff for MLB. Thanks so much
