The Vancouver Canucks and restricted free-agent forward Brock Boeser have agreed to a three-year contract extension, the team announced Monday.

The deal holds an average annual value of $5.875 million.

"We're very pleased to have Brock re-sign," Vancouver general manager Jim Benning said. "He's a talented player, a key contributor to our offense and an important part of our team's future. We look forward to having Brock join the team in preparation for the upcoming season."

The 22-year-old missed training camp during the weekend as negotiations continued. He posted a photo of himself in a Canucks jersey on Instagram after the deal was announced, with the caption: "Excited to be back, can't wait to get going! See you soon #cominghome."

The Canucks opened their preseason schedule Monday against the Calgary Flames in Victoria and will host the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday in Vancouver.

Boeser has been the model of consistency since he became a full-time player for the Canucks in 2017-18. He had 29 goals and 26 assists that season, despite being limited to 62 games after a scary-looking collision with the opening of the bench door. He also was named MVP of the All-Star Game in 2018. Last season, he had 26 goals and 30 assists in 69 games.

Boeser and rookie sensation Elias Pettersson form the core of the Canucks forward group as the team rebuilds following the Sedin era.

The 23rd pick in the 2015 draft, Boeser is coming off his entry-level deal that had a cap hit of $925,000.

Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

For the past decade or so, every single Champions League campaign has begun with a kind of unspoken agreement among everyone watching. We tune into the qualification playoffs as if the fourth-best team from Italy or England could actually make some noise come the knockout rounds. We watch the group stage draw to see who ended up in the Impossible Group and to complain about whatever other group Manchester City inevitably receive. We watch the group stages themselves to figure out whether this was the year Napoli, or Porto, or Arsenal, could finally put a real scare into one of the contenders.

But deep down, we all knew that either Barcelona, Bayern Munich or Real Madrid were going to win and for the most part, and we were right.

In the 10 editions of the tournament before 2018-19, that trio of teams won 80% of the European Cups. Bayern nabbed one, Barca won three and Madrid took home four. Perhaps more incredibly, one of those three teams were in every final and in the years where Bayern, Barca and Madrid didn't win, it required either a historic outlier or a literal volcanic eruption to prevent them from doing so. The title changed each year, but the natural order of things was for either Bayern, or Barcelona, or Real Madrid to be the best team in the world.

However, that all changed last year.

Madrid, the three-time defending champs, got uppercut into outer space by Ajax in the round of 16 while the eventual winners, Liverpool, took out Bayern in the same round and then Barca in the semis. Liverpool's victory marked the first time since 2012 that someone outside of the Bayern-Barca-Madrid triumvirate lifted the European Cup. And the final itself, with Tottenham finishing runner-up, marked the first time that none of the three continental superpowers appeared in the final since 2008, which, coincidentally, was also an all-English matchup between Manchester United and Chelsea.

Liverpool have now been to back-to-back finals, imposing their own kind of short-term dominance over the world's premier club competition. Except, as they've done so, they've only been the second best back home. Manchester City have established themselves as the best Premier League team of all time and the most consistent club in the world right now. If Liverpool are the best team in Europe, then City are the best team on the planet, which raises the question: How many teams realistically have a shot at the Champions League this season?

Europe's old Big Three is dead. The only one preventing Liverpool and City from turning it into a Big Two is the greatest soccer player we've ever seen. This season, City will win their first title, Lionel Messi will snag his fifth Champions League trophy or Liverpool will take home their second European Cup in a row.

Here's why anything else will be a surprise.

Just how good are Man City? On the one hand, it's hard to say. They've put together the two highest point totals in English soccer history in consecutive seasons, but they've also been dumped out of the Champions League in the quarterfinals in consecutive seasons, losing both times to English sides they dominated domestically that same year. On the other hand, it's not that hard: stunning loss to Norwich aside, they're freaking great.

According to data from the website Sports Odds History that goes back to 2010, the only teams who were bigger favorites to win the Champions League at this point in the season were Pep Guardiola's Barcelona teams, Tito Vilanova's Barcelona team that had 100 points in La Liga and Luis Enrique's Barcelona teams with Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar. (City's current odds are +320, which is an implied probability of about 24%.)

In other words, people with actual money on the line have as much faith in City as they did in a handful of the best teams of the sport's modern era.

If Guardiola has turned City into the new Barcelona, then Liverpool and Barcelona are the, uh, new Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. According to the same data from Sports Odds History, the collective odds of this year's top three (City, Liverpool and Barcelona) are roughly the same as they were for the peak Barca-Bayern-Madrid seasons. In fact, Liverpool's and Barcelona's odds of winning it all this season (both +550, or around 15%) are the same as they were for Madrid in 2013-14 and Barcelona the following year. Spoiler: Both of those teams won the Champions League.

The lasting memory of the Liverpool-Barcelona matchup in last season's semis is, of course, the fact that Liverpool won the second leg 4-0 to win the tie 4-3. It marked the second year in a row that Barcelona had blown a massive second-leg lead and it seemed to suggest that there was something intangibly right with Liverpool -- a team capable of an incredible, emotional collective comeback -- and something intangibly wrong with Barcelona -- why couldn't they just, you know, not give up four goals?

In reality, the totality of the two legs suggested that the teams were pretty much even. Liverpool were unfortunate to lose the first game by three and Barca were unfortunate to lose the second one by four: neither performance was as lopsided as the scoreline looked. If Ousmane Dembele doesn't miss a tap-in at the end of the first game, or if Alisson doesn't make a number of key saves at Anfield, the conversation around both teams is very different. These are tiny margins.

As their volatile early-season performances in La Liga have suggested, Barcelona's place within this top three is almost totally dependent on the presence of Messi. He hasn't played a game yet this season and isn't expected to be fit for Barca's European opener against Borussia Dortmund this week. In his absence, Barcelona have blown out Valencia and Real Betis, but they've also drawn Osasuna and lost to Athletic Bilbao.

While Messi has aged into his 30s, the team has improbably become more reliant on their Argentinean superstar. And in Europe, that's fine. In the Champions League knockout stages, tactics and systems often go out the window and games get decided by individual moments. The best way to exploit that systemic difference? Employ the best individual player there ever was. Messi shattered Europe's best defense in the first leg of the Liverpool tie and created more than enough high-quality chances to put the second leg out of reach. As long as he's still playing and is still impervious to the progression of time, Barcelona will remain among the favorites.

As for Liverpool, their success seems a little less fragile. Since the start of 2018, they've given up the fewest goals per game in domestic play (0.67) of any team in Europe's Big Five leagues. They've also scored the fifth-most goals per game (2.33). City, who are third in goals scored (2.60) and third in goals allowed (0.70), are the only other team with an attack and a defense in the top five.

Thanks to savvy player acquisition and manager Jurgen Klopp, who actively makes his players better, they've built a squad with top-end talent everywhere except the midfield. There's not one injury that would really torpedo their chances of a seventh European Cup. The loss of Virgil van Dijk would certainly complicate things, but they'd still be left with the electric front three of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, and Sadio Mane, elite set-piece execution, a world-class goalkeeper and perhaps the best fullback pairing in Europe.

If you're wondering why the defending champs -- who finished second the year before, just rattled off 97 points in the Premier League and are currently five-for-five in the 2019-20 campaign -- aren't the favorites, here's why: They ran quite hot last season, racking up a goal differential of plus-67 on an expected-goals total of plus-45.3. Despite just one point separating the two teams in the table, City's underlying performances were significantly better.

In fact, City became the first team to reach 100 points in a Premier League season and their xG differential actually improved the following season. While City have spent billions in the transfer market, none of the moves break into the top 20 most expensive injuries of all time. Instead, they've shared the wealth and now have a squad filled with multiple world-class players at just about every position. Kevin de Bruyne can miss almost a full year, and they don't even miss a beat.

The paths for City, Barcelona and Liverpool to win it all are pretty clear. For City: keep playing how you've been playing and stop missing penalties and/or getting undone by VAR. For Barcelona: keep Messi healthy and don't give into a historic capitulation for the third year in a row. For Liverpool: do exactly what you guys did last year.

For every other team, the stories are a bit more complicated.

Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain all have worse odds to win it all than they did at this point last year. Bayern, who have the second-best goal differential after City since the start of 2018, seem like the team best-positioned to turn that top three into a top four, but they got thumped at home by Liverpool last year, so they remain a question until they actually take down one of the elite teams.

Madrid remain totally unpredictable in Zinedine Zidane's second term; we'll see if the Champions League magic still exists this time around. For Atletico, Diego Simeone's strategy against the top teams is to just turn the matches into a coin flip. Juventus have one of the oldest rosters in the world, and they've been less-than-dominant for all of 2019. PSG have most of the talent in the world, but come on. Until they sort out the Neymar situation and actually advance beyond the round of 16, projecting them to win the Champions League will require a breadth of imagination that I personally do not possess.

Sure, all of these teams could become the European champs, but none of them are likely to. Instead, it's probably going to be City, it might be Liverpool and it could be Barcelona. This isn't to say that they're all going to go deep into the competition. In fact, one of the three will probably get upset early on in the knockout stages; that's just the nature of two-legged, knockout soccer. But as the past 10 years have shown, the problem with getting by one of the favorites is that you still have to outlast the other two.

Nepal legspinner Sandeep Lamichhane has re-signed with the Melbourne Stars for the entire Big Bash League 2019.

Lamichhane, 19, played eight games in the BBL last season, taking 11 wickets at 17.72 with an outstanding economy rate of 6.57, including bowling four overs in the final for just 16 runs. But the legspinner missed eight games mid-tournament to play in the Bangladesh Premier League and three T20Is for Nepal against UAE in Dubai, before return for the back-end of the BBL.

The Stars have, however, secured his services for the entirety of the tournament this season, which Trent Woodhill, their list manager, believes is a huge coup for the competition.

"We're really excited to have Sandeep back at the Stars," Woodhill said. "He's a young, energetic and talented legspinner. To secure his signature for the entire Big Bash season is a great testament to the level of the competition and we can't wait to see what he produces this season working in tandem with Adam Zampa.

"He was definitely a fan favourite last season, so it's great that fans will have the opportunity to come and watch someone so exciting for the entire Big Bash campaign."

Lamichhane was excited about returning to Australia after receiving huge support in Melbourne last year.

"It was great fun and a great experience for me last year and I can't wait to join the Stars again," he said. "I would love to see all the Stars fans and especially the Nepalese fans supporting us again this year."

The Stars have made some significant changes to their list ahead of new coach David Hussey's first season in charge. Nathan Coulter-Nile, Hilton Cartwright and Clint Hinchcliffe have all signed with the side, after leaving Perth Scorchers. But Jackson Bird has headed back to the Sydney Sixers after performing well in the Stars' run to the final last year.

Australia women 98 for 1 (Healy 58*) beat West Indies women 97 for 9 (Cooper 39, Jonassen 2-19) by nine wickets

A belligerent unbeaten half-century from Alyssa Healy helped Australia Women cruise to a nine-wicket win over West Indies Women in Barbados and take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series, with one match to go.

Healy struck ten fours in her 43-ball 58 not out to help Australia overcome the small target of 98 with 33 balls to spare. The right-hander feasted on some wayward bowling to register her fourth fifty-plus score in five matches on this tour, but also benefitted greatly from a number of missed chances in the field as the gulf between the two sides continued to grow.

Healy clubbed three consecutive half-trackers for four in the opening over of the chase off Shamilia Connell. She then miscued a fourth short ball off the toe of the bat and it ballooned to mid-on, only for Sheneta Grimmond to let it land at her feet without even attempting the catch.

West Indies missed numerous chances off Healy, Beth Mooney and Meg Lanning, with Mooney the only wicket to fall in the chase for 8. The opener top-edged an attempted slog sweep off Afy Fletcher, which was held by Natasha McLean at midwicket.

Adding injury to insult, Chinelle Henry was stretchered off the ground after suffering a knee injury while bowling in the fourth over. Henry, who had trouble with her footing in the slippery conditions following some rain pre-game, tumbled after her delivery stride and had to leave the field.

Earlier, Lanning had no hesitation in sending West Indies in to bat after winning the toss, in the hope of exploiting the surface following the shower.

The home side made a good start, reaching 1 for 47 by the ninth over, with Britney Cooper striking six boundaries and a six to lay a solid platform. But after Stafanie Taylor holed out, a collapse of epic proportions unfolded. West Indies lost five wickets for nine runs in 19 balls, including three calamitous run-outs.

Cooper was unfortunately run out backing up too far, as Ash Gardner parried a straight drive from Stacy-Ann King onto the stumps at the non-striker's end.

Three balls later, McLean was run out without facing a ball. King had worked a ball to Jess Jonassen at midwicket and called for an easy single, but McLean was ball-watching and didn't run, and as a result, both ended up at the same end. Jonassen was credited with the run-out despite fumbling several times and throwing well wide of the stumps, forcing Healy to run several metres away to gather.

Grimmond completed the trifecta, when she failed to ground her bat properly after Henry called her through for a tight single.

Henry made a composed 21 not out from 25 balls to at least salvage something from the innings. Five of Australia's six bowlers claimed wickets with Jonassen the only multiple wicket-taker claiming 2 for 19 as West Indies finished on 97 for 9 from their 20 overs.

Perth Scorchers have formally appointed former captain Simon Katich in a strategic list management and mentoring role, as part of their revamp of the list and coaching staff ahead of Big Bash League 2019-20.

Katich, who was recently appointed as the head coach of Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL after a stint as assistant coach with Kolkata Knight Riders, has been a consultant for the Scorchers over the last 12 months on their list management, advising coach Adam Voges, cricket operations general manager Ben Oliver, and assistant coach Kade Harvey.

The Scorchers' list has been reshaped significantly from the title-winning teams that both Katich and Voges captained under former coach Justin Langer. Michael Klinger's retirement along with the exits of Shaun Marsh to the Melbourne Renegades and Nathan Coulter-Nile and Hilton Cartwright to the Melbourne Stars has allowed for a rebuild of sorts to take place.

Oliver's move from the Scorchers and Western Australia to become Cricket Australia's new general manager of national teams caused an off-field reshuffle as well, and the Scorchers thus moved to formalise Katich's role.

"It's awesome," Voges told ESPNcricinfo. "He loves it, and is passionate about WA cricket and the Scorchers. I think all we've really done is just made his role official. I don't think he'll be doing any more than what he hasn't already been doing in terms of list management or helping the guys out in a coaching or mentoring role.

"We've just made it official now, which I think is right, and recognising him for the work that he's doing. Because he is doing a lot behind the scenes and then come Big Bash time he'll certainly be visible, which is great to have high-calibre people like Katto around."

Katich's role is not full-time, as he will remain at his base in Sydney and mix his consulting work for the Scorchers with his media and IPL commitments.

Harvey has been appointed as the new general manager of high performance for WA and the Scorchers, taking over from Oliver. He had previously been the Scorchers and WA bowling coach, and was part of the coaching staff for the Australia A 50-over team on their recent tour of England.

WA and the Scorchers have appointed Matt Mason as their new bowling coach. Mason played two Sheffield Shield games for WA between 1996 and 1998 before heading to England for a decade-long career with Worcestershire. Mason then moved to Worcestershire's coaching staff and also worked with the ECB's fast-bowling programmes prior to working with Leicestershire over the past two seasons.

WA and the Scorchers have also added former Australia Test spinner Beau Casson to their staff as an assistant coach. Casson moved back to Western Australia for family reasons after a successful stint as a batting coach with New South Wales. He had a significant influence on Kurtis Patterson's rise into Australia's Test ranks last year and their relationship is set to continue, with the Scorchers having signed on Patterson for three years.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Another day, another quarterback loss for the New York Jets.

Starting for Sam Darnold, who was diagnosed last week with mononucleosis, Trevor Siemian suffered a potentially serious injury to his left ankle in the Jets' 23-3 loss to the Cleveland Browns on Monday at MetLife Stadium.

Siemian, spotted in the locker room with crutches and a walking boot, will have an MRI exam on Tuesday to determine the extent of the damage. He was injured in the second quarter when his left leg bent awkwardly on a late hit by Browns defensive end Myles Garrett.

Jets coach Adam Gase declined to comment on the severity of the injury.

Siemian was replaced by third-stringer Luke Falk, who was signed off the Jets' practice squad earlier in the day. Falk, who spent the preseason with the Jets, finished 20-of-25 passing for 199 yards in his NFL debut.

"It's familiar territory for me," said Gase, who has started six quarterbacks since 2016 -- four with the Miami Dolphins and two with the Jets.

It probably will be seven, as Falk seems likely to start Sunday against the New England Patriots (2-0).

"I don't feel like thinking about it right this minute," Gase said of the New England matchup.

Only five teams in the Super Bowl era (excluding the 1987 strike season) have had to use three quarterbacks in their first three games. The most recent two teams to do it combined for a 3-29 record; the previous three all made the playoffs.

Chances are the Jets will have to sign a backup quarterback for the game because Darnold will be sidelined. The Jets haven't said when they expect him to return. The second-year quarterback reportedly is hoping that he can play Week 5 against the Philadelphia Eagles; the Jets have their bye in Week 4.

If Falk had been injured in the game, the Jets would've turned to running back Le'Veon Bell as their emergency quarterback.

Siemian's injury looked nasty, but he managed to get up and walk off the field. He limped to the locker room and was officially ruled out in the third quarter.

The Jets (0-2) tried to rally around Siemian after the Darnold bombshell, but the offense sputtered under him, with three straight punts to start the game. He was injured on the fourth series.

Playing for the first time since 2017, Siemian (3-for-6, 3 yards) was rusty from the outset. He was sacked twice and held the ball too long on other plays. On a third-and-15 from the Jets' 32-yard line, he was flushed outside the pocket and heaved a deep pass to tight end Ryan Griffin. Garrett arrived a split-second late -- he was penalized -- and landed on Siemian, who appeared to be in significant pain.

It was a dreadful day for the offense, which crossed midfield only twice in the first three quarters. In two games, Gase's offense has generated 11 points.

"When we look at it, we're going to have to look at all our guys and see who's doing their job and who isn't," Gase said. "If they're not, we have to put some pieces around and change some things up."

Falk (20-for-25, 198 yards) actually did a decent job, considering the circumstances. He got work in practice, behind Siemian, but he had no chance to work with the starters until Monday night. They started him slowly -- five straight running plays -- and gradually opened up the offense.

"Luke is very confident," Gase said. "Once we got out of that first series, you could just tell he was calm. It was like we were at practice."

The Jets leaned on Bell, who had 10 catches for 61 yards and 21 rushes for 68 yards. He also had a fumble deep in Cleveland territory.

Afterward, Bell was visibly frustrated but shifted the blame away from the quarterback upheaval.

"It wasn't the quarterback play. It's just guys being on details," he said. "We had a lot of dropped passes, a lot of false starts, guys not making enough plays, including myself."

If Falk starts Sunday, it will be the 199th pick in the 2018 draft (by the Tennessee Titans) against the 199th pick in the 2000 draft. Falk and Tom Brady are the only two quarterbacks in the past 20 years to be chosen 199th.

Falk called Brady a "source of inspiration," noting that he follows Brady's legendary diet -- but not as strictly as Brady.

"No, I'm 24," he said, "so I eat pizza every now and then."

Wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (hamstring) and linebacker Jordan Jenkins (calf), both of whom left with injuries, also will have MRIs on Tuesday.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are acquiring defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick from the Miami Dolphins in exchange for a 2020 first-round pick, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The former first-round pick received permission to seek a trade from the woeful Dolphins (0-2) earlier in the week because he was unhappy with playing multiple positions, sources told ESPN.

He declined to talk about a potential trade when asked about it prior to Miami's 43-0 Week 2 loss to the New England Patriots.

"I can't focus on this trade, and this and that," Fitzpatrick told reporters Friday. "I'm focused on Sunday. I've got to focus on the New England Patriots."

Fitzpatrick, 22, immediately bolsters the Steelers' defensive back group that includes Joe Haden, Steven Nelson and Terrell Edmunds.

The No. 11 overall pick in the 2018 NFL draft allowed a completion percentage of 49 percent when nearest defender in coverage during his rookie season, according to NextGen Stats. He was ranked sixth-best among defensive backs with 400 coverage snaps.

The Alabama product brings a valuable contract with him, entering the second year of his rookie deal. He carries a salary of $1.8 million this year, followed by salaries of $1.9 million and $2.7 million, plus a fifth-year option in 2022.

Fitzpatrick will face his former team when the Dolphins travel to Pittsburgh in Week 8 for Monday Night Football.

The Steelers' 2020 pick has a 29 percent chance to be top-five and a 62% chance to be top-10, according to Football Power Index.

The Dolphins are also getting the Steelers' 2020 5th-round pick and a 6th-rounder in 2021, sources told ESPN's Cameron Wolfe. In turn, the Steelers will receive Miami's 2020 4th-round pick and a 7th-round pick in 2021, sources said.

The Dolphins continued to stockpile picks with the trade. They now have three first-round picks and two second-rounders in 2020. They also have two first-rounders and two second-rounders in 2021.

The trade caps a significant day in the Steelers franchise as coach Mike Tomlin announced quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was having surgery on a season-ending elbow injury.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Put a Falk in them, they're done.

Their season is only eight days old, but the New York Jets already have lost two games and two quarterbacks and there's little hope for a turnaround. Third-stringer Luke Falk, who went from the practice squad to the No. 1 job in a span of only a few hours, played the last two-plus quarters in a historically bad offensive performance Monday night against the Cleveland Browns -- a 23-3 loss in which the Jets produced only 139 total yards through three quarters.

Falk replaced Trevor Siemian (ankle), who started for the ailing Sam Darnold (mononucleosis). The Jets have endured plenty of quarterback calamities over the years (remember Geno Smith's broken jaw, inflicted by a teammate?), but this is an all-time run of rotten luck. And it will get worse because there's a good chance Falk will be their quarterback Sunday when they face the New England Patriots (2-0) on the road.

Only five teams in the Super Bowl era -- excluding the 1987 strike season -- have had to use three different starting quarterbacks in their first three games. The past two teams to do it combined for a 3-29 record, but the previous three all actually made the playoffs, according to ESPN Stats & Information research.

That won't be the Jets.

The quarterback crisis, coupled with a brutal schedule, has put the Jets on the brink of falling out of contention. After New England, which figures to be a rout of epic proportions, they have a bye, followed by the Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys and Patriots again. Oh, my. Not even an early return by Darnold -- he's hoping for the Philly game -- can rescue the Jets, who have unraveled under new coach Adam Gase.

Gase became the first Jets coach since Rich Kotite (1995) to lose his first two games on the job. Before the season, Gase predicted they'd be playing meaningful games in December. Forget that; they might not make it to Columbus Day --- and some of this is on Gase, who has not lived up to his reputation as an offensive mastermind. Their problems go beyond the quarterback position.

Troubling trend: The Jets have a loudmouth for a defensive coordinator -- Gregg Williams -- and he choked on his words after tweaking Odell Beckham Jr. the other day in a contentious news conference. "Odell, who?" Williams asked, revealing a smug smile. Beckham exacted revenge, ripping the Jets for 161 yards on six catches. That included an 89-yard touchdown on which the Jets played a soft zone behind a four-man rush.

Williams actually did a decent job of confusing Baker Mayfield by mixing up his coverages, but he ended up with egg on his face because of the Beckham explosion. That's Williams in a nutshell: He's a smart defensive coach, but he can embarrass your franchise because of his mouth and reputation.

QB breakdown: Give Falk an "A" for effort. The former sixth-round pick of the Tennessee Titans made his NFL debut and didn't embarrass himself -- not bad for someone who began the day on the practice squad. Falk (20-for-25, 198 yards) didn't dazzle with his arm strength, but he displayed game-manager qualities and got the ball to Le'Veon Bell (10 catches for 61 yards). Bell ran hard and finished with 31 touches. At this rate, he'll be out of gas by Thanksgiving.

Biggest hole in the game plan: Cornerback Trumaine Johnson, their $72.5 million free-agent addition in 2018, was benched after a lackluster opener and didn't make an appearance until garbage time. Think about that for a second: They benched their most accomplished corner against arguably the top receiving corps in the league. This is a bad look for Johnson, whose attitude irked the previous coaching staff. The current staff apparently feels the same way. Nate Hairston replaced Johnson in the lineup but left the game with an undisclosed injury. Maybe the Jets should jump into the Jalen Ramsey sweepstakes.

Silver lining: Sam Ficken -- aka Kicker No. 4 -- was perfect. He made a 46-yard field goal. The kicking carousel stops for at least a week.
