Lawmakers plan to divvy up $1 billion during the special session, which opens Monday. The Bismarck Tribune reports that the money leaders hope to set aside for pipeline grants could make the plan more attractive to developers.

UNDATED (AP) — Aaron Rodgers was sidelined with the coronavirus on Sunday, but it was the Green Bay Packers’ offense that looked sick.

Making his first NFL start, Love was 19 of 34 for 190 yards with a touchdown and an interception, both of them coming in the fourth quarter.

— Kevin Byard returned Matthew Stafford’s second consecutive interception 24 yards for a touchdown, part of a defensive effort that sent the Titans to a 28-16 win over the Rams.

Ryan Tannehill threw for a TD and ran for another as the Titans won despite just 194 offensive yards in their first game without injured NFL rushing leader Derrick Henry.
— Denzel Ward’s early 99-yard interception return for a touchdown ignited the Browns’ 41-16 pounding of the Bengals, leaving both teams 5-4. Baker Mayfield threw for two scores and Nick Chubb ran for 137 as Cleveland racked up the same point total it mustered in its three previous games combined. Mayfield connected with Donovan Peoples-Jones on a 60-yard TD pass in the first half and an 18-yarder to David Njoku in the fourth.
— Jacksonville’s Josh Allen hounded Buffalo’s Josh Allen with an interception, a sack and a fumble recovery in the Jaguar’s 9-6 stunner over the Bills.

— Dustin Hopkins nailed a 29-yard field goal with two seconds remaining to send the Chargers past the Eagles, 27-24. Justin Herbert was 32 of 38 passing for 356 yards and two touchdowns as Los Angeles ended a two-game skid and improved to 5-3. Philadelphia quarterback Jalen Hurts ran for 62 yards and was 11 of 17 for 162 yards and a score.
— The Falcons pulled out a 27-25 win over the Saints as Matt Ryan hit Cordarrelle (kohr-DAR’-ehl) Patterson for a 64-yard gain with a minute to go, setting up Younghoe Koo’s 29-yard field goal as time expired.

NASCAR-PHOENIX
Larson takes Cup crown
AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Kyle Larson has closed his comeback season in NASCAR with his first championship, capping his return from a nearly yearlong suspension with a title-winning victory at Phoenix Raceway.
Larson received a flawless final pit stop from his Hendrick Motorsports crew to get the No. 5 Chevrolet back on track ahead of his three title rivals. He controlled a restart with 25 laps remaining, quickly cleared Martin Truex Jr., then held off several of Truex’s challenges.
Larson had a Cup-leading 10 victories this year, success that was in stark contrast to his troubles in 2020. He was fired four races into last season and lost nearly every sponsor for his use of a racial slur while racing online. Hendrick signed him and came away with its 14th NASCAR title.
Truex finished second and was followed by Denny Hamlin, his Joe Gibbs Racing teammate.
Kyle Larson shared his first career NASCAR Cup championship with the youth racing school that stood by him in his comeback. The Urban Youth Racing School is a Philadelphia-based program that creates opportunities in racing for minorities. Founders Anthony and Michelle Martin and two students attended the championship finale at Phoenix Raceway. The Martins stood their ground and gave Larson a second chance and forged a bond with the driver. They all celebrated together in victory lane after Larson won the championship.

Jurors also heard testimony from people who were with Rittenhouse that night, as well as from police officers and loved ones of the men who died.

PARIS (AP) — The president of France’s Bishops Conference said the country’s Catholic Church made “a decisive step” after it agreed to provide financial compensation to sex abuse victims. Eric de Moulins-Beaufort, the conference president, said in a speech on Monday that the Church has recognized its “institutional responsibility” and decided to go on “a path of recognition and reparation” that paves the way for victims to possibly receive compensation. The Bishops Conference held its annual meeting a month after a report revealed large-scale child sex abuse within the French Catholic Church. Moulins-Beaufort did not provide details about the amount of the compensation and how the church intends to pay.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court is set to hear a case about the government’s ability to get lawsuits thrown out of court by claiming they would reveal secrets that threaten national security. The case before the high court Monday involves a group of Muslim men from Southern California who claim the FBI spied on hundreds in a surveillance operation following Sept. 11. The group claims religious discrimination and violations of other rights, saying they were spied on solely because of their faith. A lower court dismissed almost all their claims after the government said allowing the case to go forward could reveal “state secrets.”
