Both Broncos coach Gary Kubiak and Siemian said they believed Siemian could have re-entered the game if needed.Siemian was in obvious discomfort after the sack, but he stayed in the game for one more play -- a 6-yard run by rookie running back?Devontae Booker?-- and then he approached Broncos head trainer Steve Antonopulos at the two-minute warning.The Broncos led 17-7 when Siemian went to the sideline.I can tell you we felt like we could have put him back in the game, Kubiak said. We really like the job Paxton did, handling himself, handling the team well, so we stayed with it ...We feel fortunate, well go back and see where (Siemian) is at.Siemian said, as he prepared to leave Raymond James Stadium on Sunday night, that hell see what the Broncos medical staff says on Monday, but that he believed he would be able to play against the Falcons on Sunday in Denver.Just got a bum shoulder, a little sore, Siemian said. ...

Varlamov made 33 saves and Ryan OReilly had a goal and scored in the shootout as the Avalanche beat the New Jersey Devils 2-1 on Thursday night.CHICAGO -- When Josh Tomlins night was done and he made the walk to Clevelands dugout, his eyes scanned the Wrigley Field crowd searching for his dad.He found Jerry Tomlin, who made it to the World Series -- just like they both had dreamed.With his dad watching from a wheelchair, Tomlin pitched 4 2/3 scoreless innings Friday night as the Indians spoiled a game Chicago fans had waited 71 years to see by blanking the Cubs 1-0 in Game 3 to take a 2-1 lead in the Series.On a historic night in one of baseballs grandest ballparks, the Tomlins story was as sweet as it gets.I knew where he was, and what this meant to him and me and my mom, Tomlin said after Cody Allen struck out Javier Baez for the final out. So it was pretty special, one of the most emotional starts Ive had in my career.Jerry Tomlin nearly died two months ago from a circulatory malformation that has left him paralyzed from the chest down. He spent two months in the Baylor Rehab Institute in Dallas before being released on Joshs birthday, which happened to be the day the Indians clinched the AL pennant.And although he cant walk, and faces a daunting future, Jerry wasnt going to miss seeing Josh pitch in the Series.He made it all right, and as he sat in Section 122 swallowed by an ocean of Cubs fans, the elder Tomlin couldnt stop smiling.Its hard to put into words, he said about 30 minutes before Josh threw his first pitch. I didnt know what I was going to say when I got here and I still dont. The way everything planned out and the way people helped me to get here, man, its definitely a dream come true.There was no way I was going to miss this.And his son, who used to pretend he was in the World Series when he threw to his dad in their backyard, pitched the game of their lives.Jerry Tomlin made the trip to Chicago accompanied by his wife, Elena, who stood in the aisle as game time approached.We both have butterflies, she said. This is a day (Josh) has been waiting for since he was 4 years old. Hes been playing baseball his whole life. What more can you ask for than when your kid gets to live his dream?On his way to the weight room before the game, Tomlin was told where his parents were sitting along with some friends who helped them transport Jerry from his home to Chicago.ddddddddddddI wanted to know where he was, so I could look up and see him, Tomlin said.And when he felt his mechanics were off or he wasnt doing what he needed to, Tomlin looked for his dad.If the game was speeding up to me, just to find that sense of calm there, he said. What hes gone through, I mean, thats nothing to what were going through right now. So to be able to find him and see him in the stands, it kind of calmed me down and just let me go out there and settle into the game and try to go out there and do the best that I could for him.Once again, Tomlin came through for the Indians, holding the Cubs and their fearsome lineup without a run on two hits before he was lifted by manager Terry Francona, who gave him a hug before taking the ball.The Indians entered the postseason down two starters as both Carlos Carrasco and Danny Salazar were injured in September, and then when Trevor Bauer cut his pinkie open while repairing one of his drones, Clevelands chances to go very deep in the postseason seemed remote at best.But Tomlin has delivered, entering Fridays game with a 2-0 record and 2.53 ERA.Hes been a rock, just like his dad always has been for him.Jerry Tomlin coached Josh until he was in high school and the 31-year-old, who is the longest-tenured player on Clevelands roster, said he has friends who tell him to this day that his dad was the best coach they ever played for.Tomlin knew nothing would stop his dad, who fell ill at work in August and initially thought he was having stomach problems. However, doctors were examining him when he lost all the feeling in his lower body from a condition that affects blood vessels on his spine. Surgery saved his life, and Josh left the Indians to be with his dad following the operation.As his dad recovered, Josh kept pitching but his mind was never far from thinking about family.Hes called me a couple times. Never complaining, Jerry said. I told him just go back to work and do what you do. Quit worrying about your dad and go get `em.Josh did just that. ' ' '
