London Calling: Seahawks Ex Russell Wilson Rallies Broncos to Dramatic Win Over Jaguars
The Denver Broncos are nonetheless one thing in need of an offensive juggernaut led by Russell Wilson. However on Sunday in London, they have been adequate to beat the Jacksonville Jaguars, 21-17 at Wembley Stadium. … with Wilson main the late cost.
The Broncos (just like the Jags) needed to cope with the journey and the time distinction along with coping with the scrutiny that has come to Denver following the blockbuster commerce for the previous Seattle Seahawks star QB … who has been something however a star up to now for his new workforce.
Till the ultimate minutes of Week 8, that’s.
The return of Wilson from a hamstring harm allowed him to out-do Jaguars’ second-year quarterback Trevor Lawrence, the No. 1 general choice within the 2021 Draft. However each of those groups have struggled to get on-track offensively, every of them coming into with lengthy dropping streaks, and the Broncos boasting the worst statistical offense within the NFL as they have been averaging barely 14 factors per sport.

Wilson would end 18 of 30 for 252 yards, with one TD and one interception. … and once more, struggling to attain 21 factors and struggling to mount a 3-5 document will not be precisely what Denver bargained for. However he did rally Denver from a 10-0 deficit and with the win, captured with a TD with lower than two minutes left within the sport, did make the long run draft picks owed to his outdated 4-3 Seahawks workforce – which performs at the moment in opposition to the visiting 6-1 Giants – not less than quickly rather less invaluable.

Organizers of the Christian rally that Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell blamed for a violent riot at a local park pushed back against his claims that they intentionally provoked outrage on Tuesday.
After police reported multiple arrests at the MayDayUSA rally at Cal Anderson Park on Saturday, Harrell’s office released a statement defending the LGBTQ community and protesters while criticizing the “far-right rally” for provoking the violent reaction.
“Seattle is proud of our reputation as a welcoming, inclusive city for LGBTQ+ communities, and we stand with our trans neighbors when they face bigotry and injustice,” the statement read. “Today’s far-right rally was held here for this very reason – to provoke a reaction by promoting beliefs that are inherently opposed to our city’s values, in the heart of Seattle’s most prominent LGBTQ+ neighborhood.”
Though Harrell’s office suggested the rally was intentionally held at Cal Anderson Park to stir up controversy, pastor Russell Johnson, who helped to lead the event, said the location was suggested to them by the city.
SEATTLE MAYOR’S OFFICE DEMANDED FEWER WHITE MEN, MILITARY IN POLICE RECRUITMENT: MEMO
“The @MayorofSeattle caught in yet another lie. He said we intentionally chose Cal Anderson Park for our worship rally to ‘provoke a reaction by promoting beliefs that are opposed to Seattle’s values.’ Oops. He must have forgot about the email HIS OFFICE sent us on March 7th denying our permit to gather at Pike Place and SUGGESTING we go to Cal Anderson Park instead,” Johnson wrote on X.
Johnson provided email screenshots showing that their initial location, Pike Place, was rejected for being unable to “successfully facilitate” the event. They also showed that Cal Anderson Park was suggested as an alternative option.
Fellow preacher Ross Johnston also told Fox News Digital that their first location was rejected, and they then chose Cal Anderson Park after the city’s suggestion. He condemned the mayor’s statement for taking the protesters’ side to “make things worse.”
“His reasoning, of course, is that our values inherently opposed the values of Seattle,” Johnston said. “Now, when I hear that, my question is what values is he referring to? Is he referring to the Constitution, the Bill of Rights? Because I don’t know if he knows this, but he’s actually an elected politician in the United States of America. And in the 250-year history of the nation of America, though we might not all see eye-to-eye on every single matter, or even religion for that matter, we all do agree on having the same rights, right?”

In a statement to Fox News Digital, Harrell’s office confirmed that the rally’s Pike Place location was rejected and that a city staffer “shared several parks that had potential availability.” However, Harrell’s press secretary, Callie Craighead, pointed out that Cal Anderson Park was the rally organizers’ first choice after being given other options, providing Fox News Digital with a copy of a permit from March.
Craighead also suggested the rally organizers “directly explained their provocative thinking” when choosing locations by citing a pre-rally video depicting Johnston describing their Pike Place location as “Antifa’s headquarters” and “where thousands showed up for BLM.”
“Mayor Harrell remains steadfast in his denouncement of rhetoric from groups whose messages promote exclusion, intolerance, and undermine the dignity and rights of any community member—particularly those that are marginalized, like our LGBTQ+ community,” Craighead said.

She added, “As a Christian himself, the mayor is guided by the Christian values of love and justice, and his comments have specifically addressed ideologies that are in contrast to Seattle’s commitment to being a welcoming city for all. Like any faith community, Christianity is not a monolith—and many Christians throughout Seattle do not hold the beliefs expressed by the organizers of the Mayday rally.”
In response to the mayor’s original statement, Johnston and Johnson launched a protest rally outside Seattle City Hall on Tuesday, calling for his resignation. Johnston also emphasized that he “100%” condemned violence.
“We want nobody to be arrested. We want nobody to be hurt or end up in the hospital. Absolutely not. We condone all violence 100% of the time,” Johnston told Fox News Digital.

Anti-LGBTQ group, counterprotesters descend on Seattle City Hall over response to Cal Anderson rally
Dozens of anti-LGBTQ demonstrators and counterprotesters faced off at Seattle City Hall on Tuesday as both sides scrutinized Mayor Bruce Harrell’s handling of a Capitol Hill protest over the weekend.
Tuesday’s event saw several arrests as skirmishes between demonstrators with Mayday USA, a Christian fundamentalist group advocating against trans rights, and pro-LGBTQ activists clashed from either side of a police barricade.
At one point, the commotion prompted several street closures in downtown Seattle.
Mayday USA previously held a rally inspired by the right-wing grassroots movement #DontMessWithOurKids in Cal Anderson Park on Saturday. It was one leg of a five-city tour.
Counterprotesters clashed with police Saturday, leading to the arrests of 23 people, most of whom have been charged with assault and obstruction. One juvenile was arrested for obstruction and then released.

In a statement following Saturday’s protest, Harrell characterized the event as a “far-right rally” intending to “to provoke a reaction by promoting beliefs that are inherently opposed to our city’s values, in the heart of Seattle’s most prominent LGBTQ+ neighborhood.”
Mayday USA has rebuked the Mayor’s statement, and organized Tuesday’s “Rattle in Seattle” event to decry Harrell’s “false accusation and attempts to limit the freedom of Christian worship.”
“We are calling on the mayor to retract his statement, apologize, or resign,” the group said in a post on Instagram.
According to The Seattle Times, Folake Kellog, a Wenatchee-based pastor and spokesperson for Mayday USA, said the group requested to hold the rally at Victor Steinbrueck Park but the city denied its request.
Harrell’s office has stated that Mayday requested a permit for a street location on 1st and 2nd Avenue, not Victor Steinbrueck Park. A permit for a street closure was denied by the city’s Special Events Office, and a staffer shared a list of available parks.
“Given that it was available and met the size/logistic needs available for the event, it was granted,” Harrell’s spokesperson Callie Craighhead said in an email statement. “This is consistent with free speech requirements under the First Amendment.
