Broncos’ depth at outside linebacker will be tested following Nik Bonitto’s injury

Published Sun, 10 Nov 2024 23:30:00 GMT

Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph understands the reality of the team’s depth at outside linebacker.Second-year edge rusher Nik Bonitto will not play in Saturday’s game against the Detroit Lions due to a knee injury. While Baron Browning is fully healthy, outside linebacker Jonathon Cooper (ankle) was limited at practice this week, and rookie inside linebacker Drew Sanders, who has spent some time on the edge in recent weeks, is still getting up to speed.Not to mention, Ronnie Perkins was waived on Thursday after playing in five games.Joseph thinks the Broncos have enough at outside linebacker. And if they don’t, Denver has no choice but to work with what it has.“The game is Saturday night. We can’t draft anybody else right now,” Joseph said.Bonitto’s absence is a big loss for the Broncos. He has been an effective pass-rush unit in recent weeks and recorded a team-best seven sacks and 18 quarterback hits in 13 games (three starts).It remains to be seen if Cooper is 100% hea...

This winter's El Niño could be one of the strongest in decades. What it could mean for California

Published Sun, 10 Nov 2024 23:30:00 GMT

The 2023-24 El Niño is likely to be one for the record books. In an update released Thursday, the Climate Prediction Center said this winter's El Niño was slightly favored to be "historically strong." The national forecasters gave it about a 54% chance of being one of the five strongest since 1950. El Niño is back: What it could mean for California’s winter Those odds are up from last month, when the Climate Prediction Center gave this year's El Niño a 35% chance of being among the strongest ever, like the one we saw 2015-16 or 1997-98.But a super-strong El Niño doesn't necessarily mean super-strong impacts, like storms, flooding or heavy snow. "While stronger El Niño events increase the likelihood of El Niño-related climate anomalies, it does not imply expected impacts will emerge in all locations or be of strong intensity," says the Climate Prediction Center. What are they expecting to happen this winter? As with any weather, it depends on where you live. The precipitation outl...

80s synth-pop pioneers Men Without Hats back with new music, Anaheim show

Published Sun, 10 Nov 2024 23:30:00 GMT

Every generation naturally feels as if the music of their youth was the best era of them all. As more time elapses, however, it becomes harder to deny the oversized influence and enduring appeal of the 1980s.From arena-packing hard rock acts like Def Leppard, Mötley Crüe and Journey, to new wave pioneers The Cure, Duran Duran and U2, cassette-hoarding kids of the 80s never need to revisit the music from their childhood - because it never went away.Many of the top acts from that era are still enjoying heavy rotation on the radio and still packing venues across the U.S. and around the globe. Case in point: Depeche Mode’s recent four-night residency in Los Angeles (two nights at the Kia Forum and two nights at Crypto.com Arena).Carved into the Mount Rushmore of 1980s hits is “The Safety Dance” from Canadian synth-pop band Men Without Hats. This complex analog jam and its quirky video took the world by storm, landing at No. 1 on the Billboard Dance Chart and even inspiring a “Weird Al” ...
