Broncos, Sean Payton know at least one offensive key to must-win stretch: “We’re going to have to run it better than we have”

In a convincing 29-12 victory over Cleveland the last time the Broncos played on the Empower Field turf, perhaps the most impressive aspect of the game was the manner in which the home team ran the football.Denver’s rushing attack was creative and varied.It went right at the Browns’ powerful defense between the tackles.It helped neutralize All-Pro defensive end Myles Garrett by making him the targeted man for quarterback Russell Wilson in zone read scenarios.If the Broncos offense this year is going as far as the running game can take it, that day the possibilities felt pretty lofty.Three weeks later, the Broncos return home with more questions than answers and more consternation than comfort.Most recently, Denver managed just 83 yards on 28 carries in a blowout loss to Detroit.Naturally, they weren’t going to rush for a ton of yards after falling behind by several scores. Just like earlier this month against Houston, however, part of the reason they fell behind in the first place w...Men’s basketball: CU Buffs getting it done on the glass

Colorado is playing an effective and entertaining brand of offense. And the Buffaloes’ defense generally has been up to par, particularly along the 3-point line.Lost amid the high shooting percentages and lofty scoring totals has been some solid work on the glass, as well.Through 10 games, the CU men’s basketball team has outrebounded every opponent, a streak likely to continue when the Buffs complete nonconference play at home on Thursday night against Utah Tech (5 p.m., Pac-12 Network).Lacking an individual rebounder who might challenge for the Pac-12 rebounding title, like former Buffs Andre Roberson, Tyler Bey or Jabari Walker, CU instead has gotten its glass work done by committee.“We chart rebounding every game,” CU head coach Tad Boyle said. “Both offensively and defensively — who’s not boxing out and bad box outs and where’s our defensive rebounding percentage. It’s been good in terms of defensive rebounding percentage. We want it 80% or above, and we’ve been there mos...California's retail crime task force doubles arrests in 2023

The California Highway Patrol taskforce assembled to combat retail crimes had a record-breaking year, according to Gov. Gavin Newsom.In the first 11 months of 2023, the CHP task force surpassed milestones across the board, making more arrests, recovering more stolen items and conducting more proactive operations than any year previous.According to data released from the state Tuesday, more than 1,000 arrests were made related to organized retail theft in 2023, more than twice as many from 2022.

When a toilet is flushed in California, the water can end up in a lot of places: An ice skating rink in Ontario, ski slopes around Lake Tahoe, and farmland in the Central Valley.And — coming soon — kitchen faucets.California regulators on Tuesday approved new rules to let water agencies recycle wastewater and put it right back into the pipes that carry drinking water to homes, schools and businesses.It's a big step for a state that has struggled for decades to have a reliable source of drinking water for its more than 39 million residents. And it signals a shift in public opinion on a subject that as recently as two decades ago prompted backlash that scuttled similar projects.Since then, California has been through multiple extreme droughts, including the most recent one that scientists say was the driest three-year period on record and left the state's reservoirs at dangerously low levels.The Silicon Valley Advance Water Purification Center is pic...Celebrate The Holidays With a Buffet Brunch at Yamashiro
