As for Seattle's quarterback, Sam Darnold, he was mostly good, thankfully. But 12s might be thankful not just for what happened on Sunday Night Football, but for what comes next. If Darnold can replicate his performance in future games, the Seahawks will be back in the playoff mix. The QB did make one disastrous decision, though, the kind that could cost his team games.

Harris returns to New Hampshire to stump for Democrats

(The Center Square) — Former Vice President Kamala Harris visited New Hampshire on Saturday to stump for U.S. Senate candidate Chris Pappas and other Democrats ahead of the pivotal midterm election.
