Sam Darnold's hip sent shockwaves through Seattle before the season even got started. The Seahawks quarterback went down on the opening drive of the season opener against New England and never came back. Early word is encouraging — team sources calling it great news so far — but an MRI will tell the real story.
And it was Drew Lock who stepped in and helped Seattle get the job done, which brings us to the other side of that locker room in Foxborough. Drake Maye threw three interceptions in the Patriots' season opener, including a reckless final drive that head coach Mike Vrabel called out directly after the game. Vrabel didn't sugarcoat it — the decision-making cost New England a winnable football game, and that's a tough way to open a season for a young quarterback with everything to prove.
Shifting to baseball now, the Los Angeles Dodgers are rolling. They swept Cincinnati to extend their winning streak to seven straight, with Mookie Betts going deep in the third inning at Dodger Stadium. This team looks locked in heading deeper into September, and the rest of the National League is paying attention.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
