December 11,  2017 By Todd Davis Good morning! Here is a look at the top headlines as we start the day. 🌞 Weather: A mainly sunny sky with an expected high of 76 degrees. Tonight, a few clouds with a low of 42 degrees. 🔎 Prefer the online view?

"Dallas made a couple [of] big plays," Giants quarterback Eli Manning said, "and we didn't." And that, friends, was the difference between a team harboring faint playoff hopes and a 2-11 bunch playing its first game under its new coach and old quarterback.

(Rex Curry/Special Contributor) crime and safety Despite the buzz over buybacks, Texas police agencies put thousands of guns on the streets Fort Worth police are so serious about taking guns off the streets that they're willing to buy unwanted weapons from their owners and destroy them. Dallas police, on the other hand, have no interest in buybacks, but they destroy their own weapons once they've outlived their usefulness. Gun buyback programs have the potential to backfire, [a new report by the Texas Standard and the Center for Investigative Reporting's Reveal has found](. The report says nearly half of the 50 biggest law enforcement agencies sell their used weapons, creating a pipeline for old service weapons to land in the streets.
