Geno Smith throws late TD pass to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Seahawks top Browns 24-20 SEATTLE (AP) — Jamal Adams used his head to give Geno Smith the chance at some late heroics that helped vault the Seattle Seahawks into first place in the NFC West.Adams forced an interception that deflected off his helmet with 1:57 remaining. Five plays later, Smith threw a quick screen to Jaxon Smith-Njigba for a 9-yard touchdown with 38 seconds left, lifting the Seahawks to a 24-20 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Seattle (5-2) blew an early 14-point lead, but made enough plays in the fourth quarter for its fifth win in six games.

And we’re still growing,” Seattle coach Pete Carroll said. After struggling for long stretches against the best defense in the NFL, Smith was sensational on Seattle’s final drive. He connected on 4 of 5 passes, the last of which was a quick screen to Smith-Njigba. The rookie firs...

England collapses again, India extends perfect record at the Cricket World Cup LUCKNOW, India (AP) — India extended its perfect run and defending champion England continued its dreadful slump at the Cricket World Cup, undone this time by an opening spell of pace bowling from Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah.India’s pace spearheads snared seven wickets between them to propel India to a 100-run win Sunday, bowling England out for 129 in 34.5 overs.

Host nation India leads the 10-team standings with six wins from six games, two points ahead of South Africa and four clear of Australia and New Zealand.

Shami returned with 4-22 from seven overs and Bumrah had figures of 3-32 in 6...

How to choose the best tire for severe winter weather DENVER (KDVR) -- With more cold temperatures on the way and snow along the Front Range, many are packing auto shops looking for the right tires.
