Erling Haaland’s failure from the penalty spot and Bruno Fernandes' latest red card compounded the woes of Manchester City and Manchester United on another tough day for the two Premier League giants. City dropped more points Thursday in its improbably poor run of form by drawing 1-1 at home to Everton, with Haaland having a spot kick saved by England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford in the 53rd minute.

The Denver Broncos will go into the last game of the season still looking to clinch the same playoff spot they had a chance to get three weeks before the time they are set to kickoff a game with the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 18. Fortunately for the Broncos, it seems like the Chiefs are going to rest their starters for this game. The Broncos nearly defeated the Chiefs earlier this season when both teams were at full strength, but a blocked field goal on the last play of the game brought Denver's upset bid to a halt. The Broncos may sneak their way into the playoffs, but the team needs to take some lessons from its recent loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. There are some players on the roster the Broncos need to get on the field more than they are accustomed to doing this season. 4 players Broncos must use more in Week 18, playoffs Jaleel McLaughlin/Audric Estime, RBs Javonte Williams leads the Broncos with 134 rushing attempts this season. No other running back on the team has 100. However, it has become abundantly clear that Williams slows this offense down and is just not a player who is going to be a difference-maker at this point. The team needs to ride the younger, fresher combination of Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime. Estime ran the ball well in Week 16 against the Los Angeles Chargers and McLaughlin averaged nearly seven yards per carry against the Bengals. The Broncos need to have these players as their top two running backs for the remainder of this season. Kris Abrams-Draine, CB Riley Moss struggled against the Bengals and that would be putting it mildly. What was strange was that the team never thought to put Kris Abrams-Draine, who played quite well in Moss' absence, into the game. What was even more strange was seeing Damarri Mathis out on the field for several meaningful snaps. WHY? Looking at the team's Week 17 snap counts provided by The Football Guys, Abrams-Draine was on the field for just five snaps. Mathis saw 11 snaps. It's admirable that the team let Moss try to fight his way through a bad game, but there should have been some assistance given to him. And every team in the league saw that. If the Broncos get into the playoffs and go to Buffalo in the first round, which is the way it looks right now, do you not think Josh Allen is going to attack Moss the same way Joe Burrow did? The Broncos need to be ready with reinforcements and having Abrams-Draine take some more snaps in Week 18 against the Chiefs would be a good idea. Marvin Mims Jr., WR This has been the case for some time, but the Broncos just need to make Marvin Mims more of an offensive focal point. The team has made a much more concerted effort to get the ball in Mims' hands the last several weeks, but Sean Payton needs to get over whatever his obsession is with Lil'Jordan Humphrey and give most of his snaps to Mims. Mims had his best game as a pro on Saturday against the Bengals, going over 100 yards receiving and catching two touchdowns, including a circus catch that kept the Broncos alive in the game.

NASSAU, Bahamas — Scottie Scheffler brought a new putting grip to the Hero World Challenge and felt enough improvement to be satisfied with the result, a 5-under 67 that left him three shots behind Cameron Young on Thursday. Young was playing for the first time since the BMW Championship more than three months ago and found great success on and around the greens of Albany Golf Club, chipping beautifully and holing four birdie putts from 15 feet or longer for his 64. He led by two shots over Justin Thomas in his first competition since his daughter was born a few weeks ago. Thomas ran off four straight birdies late in his round and was a fraction of an inch away with a fifth. The big surprise was Scheffler, the No. 1 player in golf who looked as good as he has all year in compiling eight victories, including an Olympic gold medal. His iron play has no equal. His putting at times has kept him from winning more or winning bigger. He decided to try to a "saw" putting grip from about 20 feet or closer — the putter rests between his right thumb and his fingers, with his left index finger pointed down the shaft. People are also reading... "I'm always looking for ways to improve," Scheffler said. Scheffler last year began working with renowned putting instructor Phil Kenyon, and he says Kenyon mentioned the alternative putting grip back then. "But it was really our first time working together and it's something that's different than what I've done in the past," Scheffler said. "This year I had thought about it from time to time, and it was something that we had just said let's table that for the end of the season, take a look at it. "Figured this is a good week to try stuff." He opened with a wedge to 2 feet and he missed a 7-foot birdie putt on the par-5 third. But he holed a birdie from about the same distance at the next par 5, No. 6, and holed a sliding 6-footer on the ninth to save par. His longest putt was his last hole, from 12 feet for a closing birdie. "I really enjoyed the way it felt," he said. "I felt like I'm seeing some improvements in my stroke." Young, regarded as the best active player without a PGA Tour victory, is treating this holiday tournament as the start of a new season. He worked on getting stronger and got back to the basics in his powerful golf swing. And on this day, he was dialed in with his short game. He only struggled to save par twice and kept piling up birdies in his bogey-free round on an ideal day in the Bahamas. "The wind wasn't blowing much so it was relatively stress-free," Young said. Patrick Cantlay, along with Scheffler playing for the first time since the Presidents Cup, also was at 67 with Ludvig Aberg, Akshay Bhatia and Sahith Theegala. Thomas also took this occasion to do a little experimenting against a 20-man field. He has using a 46-inch driver at home — a little more than an inch longer than his regular driver — in a bid to gain more speed. On a day with little wind, on a golf course with some room off the tee, he decided to put it in play. "Just with it being a little bit longer, I just kind of have to get the club out in front of me and get on top of it a little bit more," Thomas said. "I drove the hell out of it on the back, so that was nice to try something different and have it go a little bit better on the back." Thomas said the longer driver gives him 2 or 3 mph in ball speed and 10 extra yards in the air. "It's very specific for courses, but gave it a try," he said. Conditions were easy enough that only four players in field failed to break par, with Jason Day bringing up the rear with a 75.

The Giants came into Sunday's contest with the Indianapolis Colts in position to earn the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft in April. All they had to do was lose to the Colts and drop their final game of the season against the Philadelphia Eagles. Instead, New York had its best offensive display of the season as it downed Indianapolis 45-33. Quarterback Drew Lock completed 17 of his 23 passes for 309 yards and four touchdowns. Lock also scored on the ground. Star rookie Malik Nabers was his favorite target as he hauled in seven receptions for 171 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton also found the endzone through the air. After he scored, Slayton had an emphatic message for those wanting the team to tank for the top pick. With the Giants' loss, the New England Patriots can now claim the top pick with a loss to the Buffalo Bills next week. The win is impressive and likely would have made fans very happy earlier this season, but with nothing to play for, the Giants cost themselves the top pick in the draft and were met with trolling on social media. There might not be a No. 1 pick for the Giants this year, but at least they avoided being the first team in NFL history to go 0-9 at home.
