Joy Taylor recaps the Seahawks’ 17-14 overtime loss to the Broncos in Denver, Seattle’s second defeat in five days, highlighting a late fourth-quarter comeback capped by a Sam Darnold field goal before his overtime interception set up Denver’s game-winning kick. She notes the season’s trend of kicker celebrations and says Seattle has a long week to address a Super Bowl hangover, while Denver takes a resilient AFC West win despite a conservative outing from Bo Nix (17/27, 107 yards). Taylor also covers the Eagles’ announcement that Jalen Hurts will miss the Panthers game due to a superficial blood clot in his calf, calling it a serious concern, with Tanner McKee expected to start. Finally, she details the Brewers sweeping the two-time champion Dodgers, rallying from 4-0 in Game 4 to reach their first World Series since 1982.

Joy Taylor previews the Thursday night Seahawks-Broncos matchup in Denver, focusing on Sean Payton urging Bo Nix to “let it rip” and on Sam Darnold trying to rebound from costly picks, with both teams needing a statement win as the AFC West and NFC West standings take shape. She then buys the idea that Dallas is wasting Dak Prescott’s prime, citing the Cowboys’ long conference-title drought, recent struggles under Brian Schottenheimer, defensive issues, and a lack of clear identity that she argues stems from how Jerry Jones runs the franchise. Finally, she discusses the 76ers’ blockbuster offseason additions—including LeBron James, Jaylen Brown, and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope—highlighting KCP’s chemistry comments and questioning leadership roles alongside Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey amid championship-or-bust expectations.
