A look at what potential trade back could cost."Much has been made of what to do with the first overall Youth A.Q. Shipley Jersey , and naturally so. While most of the debate has centered around Kyler Murray versus a defensive stalwart like Nick Bosa or Quinnen Williams, a large majority of our community vie for a trade back.And while I personally disagree with the notion, (at least as the current draft order stands) it’s not nonsensical. This roster was arguably the worst in the league, and if not it was among them. There are plenty of holes that need patching, why not accrue more capital to spend on plugging the multitude of holes in the roster? The popular target for a trade back centers around the Oakland Raiders. Not only do they have a large mass of draft picks, but it would still, in theory, allow the Cardinals to retain a top four pick.But what else would Arizona fetch in return? The 24th selection? The 27th? 35th? All of the above or a combination of them? I’d hate to burst your bubble, folks. But if the past sets any precedence, #1 isn’t going to fare such a rich return. To determine so, we’ll take a look at the only move in modern history that sets a precedence for this situation; The Rams and their move up for Jared Goff.When the Rams had their target set on trading up with the Titans for the 1st overall selection in 2016, they brought with them the 15th, 43rd, 45th, and 76th selection in that draft. As well as their first and third round selections for the following draft in 2017. (Those wound up being the 5th and 100th overall.) In return, the Rams received the 1st, 113th Stitched Rodney Gunter Jersey , and 177th overall picks.Now, should we consult the classic Jimmy Johnson trade value chart to assign values to these moves it would shake out a little like so:Titans get: 15th (1050 points) - 43rd (470 points) - 45th (450 points) - 76th (210 points)’17 First - This is where things get weird. It is generally said that future picks hold half the value of the present year. But obviously, the Titans couldn’t know exactly where the Rams would finish. Even if it was a safe bet that it would become a high pick. For this exercise we’ll assign the average value of the a first round selection (Roughly 1117 points) and cut that in half, and we get 558 points.’17 Third - Same for this pick, we get roughly 87 points.Rams get: 1st (3000 points) - 113th (68 points) - 77th (20.2 points)All that adds up to the Titans being on the wrong end of this deal, to a tune of about 263 points - just about an 8 percent loss, or roughly the cost of the 65th overall. Now it’s important to remember these points aren’t perfect numbers that reflect the value of the transaction, but it is interesting to note that the Titans technically lost value according to the trade chart. BUT if we assign the ultimate values to the future picks that the Titans received, they come out on top, for a point total of 3980. Ultimately, their gamble paid off.Next, I also wanted to cross check these values against Rich Hill’s more modern version of the trade chart from our friends over at Pats Pulpit. Note, Rich himself states that future picks don’t have a perfect value in this model as well. The totals come out to 794.42 points for the picks the Titans received, and 1033.49 for the haul the Rams received. Another loss, this time to the tune of 239.07 points for a 23% loss, nearly the value of the 24th overall. Even if I were to bake in the value of what the 2017 future selections ended up being, it still comes out in favor of the Rams. This time at 208.51 points. (-20% loss Black Justin Pugh Jersey , or just shy of the 28th overall’s value.)What does this mean for Arizona in a hypothetical trade with Oakland? Well, we’ve established that at present value, they’re likely taking a loss on the total value of their draft picks.Using Jimmy Johnson’s chart in a straight up deal involving only draft picks, and baking in an 8% loss on points, things shake out like so: Incoming Picks per Jimmy Johnson’s Trade ValuesAZOAKAZOAKNot awful, but certainly not to the lofty expectations of Cardinals fans.Using Hill’s chart, we’ll also apply the same loss of value relative to this chart, though to be a little generous we’ll calculate it as the 20% loss versus the 23% the Titans actually took.Incoming Picks (Rich Hill Version.)AZOAKAZOAKI know some out there are hopeful for some combination of three of Oakland’s first four picks, but adding things up through both these charts paint a different picture. It’s not an awful deal, but you are gambling on future picks landing in a favorable position (Which can backfire, as demonstrated by our potential trade partner and their current picks.) and an ideal candidate making it to the fourth overall spot. **cough**quinnen**cough**This isn’t all to say that the charts are absolute. It’s important to remember that this isn’t an exact predictor of what could be, rather a general approximation. But a safe assumption of the values nonetheless.What do you think? Is a potential trade back worth either of the hauls listed in the two scenarios, or do you find it preferable to dictate the draft from the top spot? Not only did the Cardinals bench Sam Bradford after three games, they made him their inactive third quarterback to take money out of his pocket.He’s doing his best to take the high road, at least.Via Darren Urban of the team’s official website, Bradford talked to reporters Friday for the first time since his benching, and admitted it wasn’t fun being in his current spot.鈥淚t is challenging Justin Pugh Jersey 2019 ,鈥?Bradford said. 鈥淏ut you kind of have to push your pride aside. My role has changed. But I still have a job to do, I鈥檓 still part of this team, and I am still going to do everything I can to help this team. It鈥檚 just figuring it out how I can do that in this new role.鈥漈he new role includes not getting a uniform on game days, so the team can save money. By making Mike Glennon the backup to rookie Josh Rosen, the Cardinals don’t have to pay Bradford his weekly $312,500 active roster bonuses. While that will cost Bradford more than $4 million if this arrangement lasts the rest of the year, he’s still making $16 million there this year, which allows him to be diplomatic about it.鈥淚 think I understand it,鈥?he said. 鈥淎nyone would like to be out there. But I get that.鈥滲radford was utterly unremarkable in his first three starts, completing 50-of-80 passes for 400 yards, with two touchdowns and four interceptions. They also lost all three of those games, which made the decision to go with the first-round pick an easy one.鈥淚 think it was pretty obvious why (coach Steve Wilks) made it,鈥?Bradford said. 鈥淥bviously I wish I would鈥檝e played better, that鈥檚 for sure. I wish I could鈥檝e helped this team get off to a better start.鈥漈hat means when he makes his return to Minnesota this weekend, he’ll be doing it as a spectator.

Ravens cuts tracker: 9/1/18 The 2018 preseason finished with every NFL club playing their Week 4 exhibition. Following shortly thereafter comes nearly 1 Ty Montgomery Jersey 2019 ,200 NFL players losing their jobs with their future floating in purgatory. By September 1, 4:00 p.m. ET, all NFL rosters must be cut down to 53 players.The Ravens are no exception, meaning 36 players shall be cut/waived before the deadline on NFL roster cuts weekend.This final roster will certainly be interesting as multiple depth contributors suffered injuries late in the preseason, leaving the coaches and scouts to cover more tape and decisions than previously expected, I presume. They will ultimately have to decide what to do with Robert Griffin III, also. Whether or not they need him as a backup for Joe Flacco Womens Hayden Hurst Jersey , or if they would prefer a depth players’ value and are confident Lamar Jackson can contribute if called upon in 2018.With whatever happens, Baltimore Beatdown will track every roster move the Ravens make over the next two days with live, up-to-the-minute updates.Cut/Waived playersTE Nick Keizer [Zrebiec]CB Robertson DanielG/T Andrew DonnalOL Justin EvansDE Christian LaCoutureDB Kai NacuaCB Jackson PorterWR DeVier PoseyLS Trent SiegOL Nico Siragusa [Rapoport]LB Albert McClellan [Zrebiec]OL Randin Crecelius [Tessler]WR Tim White [Kasinitz]WR Andre Levrone [Zrebiec]OL Maurquice Shakir [Zrebiec]OL Cameron Lee [Zrebiec]RB De’Lance Turner [Kasinitz]TE Darren Waller [Hensley]WR Breshad Perriman [Schefter]Bronson KaufusiDE Carl DavisDE Myles HumphreyQB Josh WoodrumRB Mark ThompsonRB Gus EdwardsTE Vince MayleFB Christopher EzealaWaived InjuredILB Alvin JonesPlaced on Injured Reserve:DB DeShon ElliottDB Bennett JacksonCB Stanley Jean-BaptisteT Greg SenatStaying on Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform:ILB Bam BradleyCB Jaylen HillWR Quincy AdeboyejoPlaced on Reserve/Non-football Injury ListK/P Kaare Vedvik It seems like a pretty obvious statement that for the most accurate kicker in NFL history, misses are pretty hard to come by. It’s also pretty apparent that over Ravens kicker Justin Tucker’s six year run with the team, tough times have been equally as rare.The flamboyant, borderline boastful special teamer has never shied away from the spotlight, and that’s a relatively easy thing to do when you’ve only had good times and great success throughout your career. Possibly the only moment that’s run counter to that for Tucker came against the New Orleans Saints in Week 7 when he pulled an extra point attempt that likely would’ve sent the game to overtime.He didn’t step out of the spotlight following the game though Hayden Hurst Jersey White , standing up to the media voluntarily and facing the music following the first major gaffe of his tenure in purple and black. He stressed the importance of accountability as a message he was particularly trying to send to his son, who after only seeing celebration dances and post game press conference wise cracks finally got to see a more vulnerable version of his usually unflappable father.It was an atypical sight for fans as well, who are also used to a jovial Tucker following a victory, though it’s good to see another side of him that isn’t afraid to face the media when things aren’t going well for him. The prime example of this is Tucker speaking to Peter King for his Football Morning in America column, discussing what he learned throughout the whole ordeal:There are several notes to take away from this, but the main one seemed to be how Tucker has been able to seemingly move on from this in a relatively quick fashion. With kicker being one of the more mental positions in all of sports, Tucker’s greatest strength other than the power in his right leg is his ability to compartmentalize the position and just have some fun with it all.That looks to be manifesting itself now in a tough moment for the superstar https://www.theravenslockerroom.com/authentic-hayden-hurst-jersey , as he wholly realizes it all comes down to “kicking the damn ball.” We’ll see if he continues to regain his form moving forward, but after a workmanlike performance versus Carolina, he appears to have shaken off the rough moment and is ready for Steelers week.

Over the last 10 years the Panthers have generally wasted what should be valuable assets in third round picks."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections Keep Sounding PodcastPanthers 2019 NFL DraftCSR Film RoomPanthers 2019 NFL DraftWhy have the Panthers’ recent third round draft picks been so bad? New Donte Jackson Jersey For Sale ,52commentsOver the last 10 years the Panthers have generally wasted what should be valuable assets in third round picks.EDTShareTweetShareShareWhy have the Panthers’ recent third round draft picks been so bad? Bob Donnan-USA TODAY SportsThe Carolina Panthers currently hold two picks in the third round of the 2019 NFL draft, No. 77 and No. 100 (compensatory pick). Third round picks are usually something to covet. The players available in the third round tend to have enough talent to still be among the top handful of players at their respective positions. Realistic expectations for third round picks should fall somewhere between capable depth on the low end to quality starter on the high end. Even sweeter, their cap hits tend to fall just below $1 million per year, on average, over the duration of their four-year rookie contracts. But based on the Carolina Panthers recent draft history, even finding “capable depth” with their third round picks in 2019 may be a reach. Take a look at Carolina’s woeful yield from their 12 third round picks from 2009 through 2018:Carolina Panthers third round picks 2009-2018YearPick No.PosNameNotesYearPick No.PosNameNotesThe only player the Panthers drafted Donte Jackson Jersey On Sale , developed, then retained via contract extension is Trai Turner. Carolina got good value out of Brandon LaFell throughout his four-year rookie contract as he averaged 42 receptions and 596 yards per season, but LaFell departed via free agency once his rookie deal was up. Trading a 2012 third round pick for Greg Olsen remains the single best trade in Panthers history. But look at the amount of busts! Six of the nine players drafted didn’t even play out their four-year rookie contracts with the Panthers, and that includes 2017 selection Daeshon Hall. Outside of Turner and LaFell, the only other players to carve out somewhat legitimate NFL careers are Daryl Worley and Terrell McClain. The jury is still out on 2018 selection Rashaan Gaulden. What makes the Panthers recent stretch of futility even more perplexing, if not outright frustrating Donte Jackson Jersey Sale , is the fact that they consistently nailed their third round picks throughout the 2000s. Take a look at some of the players Carolina drafted in the third round between 2001 and 2008: Steve Smith, Will Witherspoon, Travelle Wharton, Evan Mathis, James Anderson, Charles Johnson Replica Donte Jackson Jersey , Charles Godfrey, and Dan Connor (though injury limited Connor’s career). That’s right, between 2001 and 2008 the Panthers drafted eight players in the third round who went on to have solid NFL careers. They also had a couple of busts - Mike Seidman and Atiyyah Ellison, for example - but not many. While general manager Marty Hurney has done a commendable job addressing roster gaps this offseason, the Panthers need to absolutely crush the 2019 draft. This includes getting it right at No. 77 and No. 100. Assuming both Cam Newton and Luke Kuechly remain healthy (or can get fully healthy in Cam’s case), the window for another Panthers postseason run should remain open for the next couple of years. Finding two starter-level players in the third round of the 2019 draft would go a long way in keeping that window open. Could the brightest Stitched Donte Jackson Jersey , youngest offensive mind in the NFL really have implemented one of the worst play-calling schemes in Super Bowl history? Jason Whitlock sure thinks so.Since Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley’s noticeable absence in Super Bowl LIII against the New England Patriots where the League’s leader in touchdowns touched the ball only 11 times (10 rush, 1 rec), speculation has run rampant about what could have restricted the former MVP-runner up. Was Gurley secretly hurt? Did game flow REALLY dictate his lack of usage? Were the Patriots truly dominating so much defensively Gurley wasn’t a viable option?Well, Whitlock made his take very clear on <em>Speak for Yourself</em> in the clip above, calling head coach Sean McVay’s gameplan “garbage.” Whitlock doesn’t believe the arguments that the rhythm of the game dictated Gurley, who signed a lucrative extension over the offseason Baby Donte Jackson Jersey , shouldn’t be a featured part of the Rams offense and certainly doesn’t buy into the debate running backs aren’t as valuable anymore, citing Christian McCaffrey’s dominance for the Carolina Panthers.While the debate will continue on as to why (and how) Gurley was restricted to just 34 total yards on the NFL’s biggest stage, so too does the journey for Gurley to bring the Lombardi back to LA for the first time in franchise history.

Another defensive downfall ruins another exceptional offensive display for the Falcons As Matt Ryan and Steve Sarkisian continue to lead a surging Falcons’ offense back to where they belong Color Rush Julio Jones Jersey , the defense continues to find new ways to allow long scoring drives and falter at the worst possible moments. It was another outstanding all-around display from the offense. Ryan was firing on all cylinders with what is becoming one of the best wide receiving trios in the league. Julio Jones, Mohamed Sanu, and Calvin Ridley were all terrific in tearing apart Cincinnati’s secondary. Sarkisian’s usage of play action continues to greatly benefit the offense in producing easy chunk plays. There aren’t many offenses operating at a higher level than the Falcons right now.Unfortunately for Dan Quinn’s squad, there aren’t many defenses playing at a lower level than the Falcons. The endless list of mistakes will have the coaching staff fuming in light of another game decided by a few plays. Unlike in previous games, the front four managed to generate pressure without blitzing excessively, though it took a while to get going. Takkarist McKinley and Vic Beasley were influential in knocking Andy Dalton off balance. The rest of the defense failed to capitalize, as a combination of coverage breakdowns and careless penalties left the secondary searching for answers. What was one of the biggest strengths on the roster is turning into a legitimate problem. It’s hard to win with an underperforming cornerback group and backup safeties not accustomed to having major responsibility.Failure to make up for lost talentWhen Deion Jones and Keanu Neal suffered serious injuries against Philadelphia, the Falcons’ defense knew they were going to be faced with a season-long uphill battle. Losing two difference makers hurts any defense. Adding Ricardo Allen to the long-term injury list clearly worsens their chances of holding up against any offense. It’s understandable for players such as Duke Riley and Damontae Kazee to have their struggles in trying to replace two indispensable stars. That wasn’t the case in yesterday’s demoralizing defeat.A once-formidable cornerback group was largely responsible for Andy Dalton’s terrific performance. Regardless of what coverage was being played, Dalton carved them up without much resistance. He found openings down the seam against a disorganized Falcons’ secondary. Touchdown passes to Tyler Eifert and John Ross revealed how much the defense misses Allen. Look no further than Desmond Trufant and Isaiah Oliver still communicating as the play was materializing. Neither player was fully aware of what their responsibility was on what translated into a 39-yard-touchdown.Although the lack of experience at safety was clearly problematic, it wasn’t responsible for the amount of times Cincinnati’s wide receivers were open. A.J. Green and Tyler Boyd had their way with Robert Alford and Desmond Trufant. If Green wasn’t blowing past Alford at the line of scrimmage, he was drawing penalties against the enigmatic cornerback. Boyd repeatedly beat Trufant on a plethora of drag and whip routes. The dynamic receiver gave the normally well-positioned cornerback all sorts of fits. It proved to be a game-changer, as Boyd beat Trufant to convert multiple fourth downs on the game-winning drive.One of the NFL’s better cornerback duos has failed to play at a high level when their team needed them most. It’s not only the mistakes in coverage that continue to derail the Falcons. An inability to contain in run support allowed Giovani Bernard to turn the corner and produce big plays. For the second consecutive week, Alford was responsible for a touchdown from taking a poor angle. He wasn’t the only player at fault against the run. Brian Poole’s transition to strong safety was a total nightmare. It was another week of missed tackles and poor angles for the versatile defensive back. Trufant, Alford, and Poole were integral in the Falcons’ rise towards becoming a top-ten caliber defense in 2017. They are currently playing a significant role in the defense’s downfall and relevancy as a playoff-caliber team.An offensive assault without rewardFootball Outsiders’ Scott Kacsmar summed up the Falcons’ dazzling offensive performance in one tweet. As teams make history for positive reasons, the Falcons find extraordinary ways to make history for negative reasons. To score 36 points or more without turning the ball over once and still lose two consecutive games is demoralizing. The backlash following Matt Ryan’s disastrous opening night performance feels like it happened three years ago. That’s how well the former MVP has recently played.Ryan’s poise and timing has helped elevate a once-stagnant offense into a near-unstoppable force. Unless Geno Atkins or Carl Lawson managed to get pressure, Cincinnati never came close to rattling him. Sanu had one of his most productive games as a Falcon. After playing more of a reserved role in recent weeks, the former Bengal made several big plays off a variety of crossing routes. Ryan couldn’t have placed the ball any better on a stunning 36-yard completion.With Jones continuing to go about his business and command extra attention, Ridley keeps dismantling cornerbacks. Dre Kirkpatrick was the latest victim on the potential offensive rookie of the year’s highlight reel. A devastating out-and-up left Kirkpatrick helpless on what was another jaw-dropping touchdown for the rookie sensation. Ridley’s game is starting to become reminiscent of T.Y. Hilton based on his ability to create separation and generate explosive plays on a weekly basis. Not many teams can claim to have a generational talent (Jones), game-breaking threat (Ridley) Julio Jones Jersey Boys , and reliable physical weapon (Sanu) in their offense. To have a top-tier quarterback and a plethora of dynamic running backs, along with a comfortable offensive coordinator who is starting to acclimate himself to the pro game, has reestablished the Falcons’ position of being one of the top offenses in the league. How these breath-taking performances haven’t translated into victories only creates more frustration about the season.Undisciplined natureWhenever a team loses three games by one-possession, there are three to five plays in each game that should be thoroughly assessed. The next step in dissecting a close defeat is evaluating how you beat yourself. Committing ten penalties represents a solid indicator of why a sub-.500 team fell short in a close game. Similar to their loss in Philadelphia, the Falcons were undisciplined and careless on both sides of the ball. Trufant and Alford were flagged on multiple occasions. No penalty was worse than Trufant needlessly shoving Boyd in the back after the play was seemingly over. The secondary blunders continued, as Poole recklessly went helmet first in attempting to prevent Walton from making a catch. It was the type of unacceptable penalty that continues to plague the Falcons. After months of tackling drills and tutelage from Quinn, the secondary continues to make mind-numbing mistakes. Kazee was fortunate not to be flagged for blazing headfirst on a play in the fourth quarter. Instead of connecting with Bernard, he hit Beasley and sent him to the sidelines. There are going to be moments where players get overly aggressive and make mistakes. To commit the same dangerous errors that you’ve already made shows how little progress certain players are making in their development.Looking AheadA trip to Pittsburgh does look exciting on paper. The scoreboard could possibly break at some point in the game. That’s how much firepower both offenses have in their arsenal. Although it’s an attractive matchup, the coaching staff can’t be excited about another likely shootout. Not being able to stop a slightly above-average Bengals’ offense doesn’t bode well for what the Steelers have to offer. There aren’t any signs that the organization is looking for any genuine outside help to bolster their defense. It leaves Ryan back in the position where he was four years ago. The Falcons’ success ultimately falls on him, regardless of how cruel the circumstances currently are.

This weekly segment highlights a former Atlanta Falcons player and discusses what they did for the franchise. Whether you’ve been a fan since the inaugural season, or just became a fan recently, this series will give insight on players from the past. So, let’s begin. Jamal Anderson was born in Newark, New Jersey on Sept. 30, 1972 to James and Zenobia Anderson. James Anderson, a former Newark police officer, worked security for many African-American sports professionals and entertainers, such as Muhammad Ali Cheap Julio Jones Jersey , Sugar Ray Leonard, and Mike Tyson. Jamal was the captain of the football team at El Camino Real High. In 1989, he was named to the CIF Los Angeles City Section 4-A All-City first team. Following high school, Jamal attended Moorpark College, before going on to play football for the Utah Utes. His senior season at Utah was very strong, finishing with 11 rushing touchdowns, 958 rushing yards, three receiving touchdowns, and an All-WAC conference selection. APWith the No. 201 pick in the seventh round of the 1994 NFL Draft, the Atlanta Falcons selected running back Jamal Anderson. Evaluators said he was a little too small and not fleet enough to qualify as feature back — boy, were they wrong! Jamal didn’t do much during his first two seasons, as he waited for his opportunity behind another Falcons great, running back Craig “Iron Head” Heyward. Due to an injury to Heyward, Anderson finally got his chance to demonstrate what he could do. In his 12 starts that season, Jamal had 232 carries, 1,055 rushing yards, and six total touchdowns. Even with Jamal breaking out, the Falcons finished 3-13 in 1996. In 1997, the organization hired a new head coach to turn things around Custom Julio Jones Jersey , so in came Dan Reeves. That season, the team moved to a more run-based offense and it showed. Even though the team finished 7-9, and Jamal was dealing with an ankle sprain, he still finished with 10 total touchdowns and 1,086 all-purpose yards. Then came 1998, one of the greatest seasons in Atlanta Falcons history. The team was firing on all cylinders, from wide receivers Tony Martin and Terance Mathis both individually having over 1,000 yards receiving, to defensive end Lester Archambeau’s impressive 10.0 sacks. The team had a nine-game win streak, and Jamal had one of the best single-season performances in Atlanta Falcons history, as he finished the year with 16 total touchdowns, 115.4 yards per game average, and 1,846 rushing yards, which is still a single-season franchise record. During the Week 7 matchup against the New Orleans Saints, the “Dirty Bird” debuted. While breaking free from defenders, Jamal busted down the sideline, a Saints’ safety failed to get him out of bounds, and he dove for the pile-on. Jamal got up, and started flapping his wings Julio Jones Jersey Discount , also known as the “Dirty Bird.” But if you don’t want to take my word for it, let the original “Dirty Bird” tell you:Heading into the playoffs, the 14-2 Falcons looked unstoppable. Their first matchup came against the Steve Young-led San Francisco 49ers. Jamal rushed 29 times for 113 yards and two touchdowns as the Falcons won 20-18. That victory sent them to the NFC Championship against the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings defense bottled Jamal up on the ground, where he had 23 carries for just 67 yards, but he scored a receiving touchdown, which — with the help of kicker Morten Andersen’s field goal — sent the Falcons to their first ever Super Bowl. At the time of Super Bowl XXXIII, the Falcons had won 22 of their last 26 games. Unfortunately, the team went on to lose a heartbreaker to the Denver Broncos 19-34. Jamal Anderson went on to play for three more seasons, until he suffered a career-ending knee injury in 2001. In his eight-year NFL career, Jamal totaled 5,336 rushing yards and 41 total touchdowns. Aside from being a Pro Bowler and AP First-team All-Pro selection in 1998, fans will always remember him as the original Dirty Bird. Personally, Jamal was my favorite Falcons player growing up. When I was six years old, I attended my first ever Falcons game, a Week 2 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings in 1996. It’s special to me in hindsight because it was Jamal’s second start as a Falcon. I really admired his attitude on the field and how he fought for every yard. The first Falcons jersey I ever got was a No. 32 Jamal Anderson jersey, which I still have hanging in my closet to this day.So let me know in the comments below some of your favorite Jamal Anderson memories. As always, you can find me on Twitter @EvanBirchfield. Additionally, make sure to follow @The_Falcoholic on Instagram for up-to-date news and information. Thanks for reading, Falcoholics.

The Lions have an advantage that the other 31 teams cannot claim."There are some aspects of the Detroit Lions’ 2019 schedule that are certainly unfavorable. Their Week 5 bye is the earliest in the league and leaves the Lions with 12 straight weeks of games with no rest. Traveling to Denver in mid-December could also be perilous for an indoor team like the Lions. Finally http://www.lionslockerroom.com/authentic-dwayne-washington-jersey , the Lions going on the road to Washington before playing the Bears four days later on Thanksgiving is far from ideal.That being said, there is one advantage to the Lions’ schedule that no other team in the NFL can boast. According to ESPN’s Brian Burke, the Lions will have 12 more days of rest than their opponents in 2019—the biggest positive disparity in the league. Perhaps more eye-opening is that the Lions will not a face a single team coming off their bye week this season. For comparison’s sake, the Lions faced two teams coming off their bye last year (Seahawks Womens Tracy Walker Jersey , Rams). Does it really amount to all that much in the end? Probably not, although Burke claims “Rest Differential” is a “meaningful predictor.” Either way, the Lions will take every advantage they can get, and it also helps when one of their biggest rivals Womens Da'Shawn Hand Jersey , the Green Bay Packers, are on the other end of the spectrum. Their Rest Differential is -10, the fourth-worst in the NFL. The struggling Lions have made a coaching staff change.Joe Marciano has been fired as special teams coordinator.鈥淭onight I spoke to Joe and informed him of my decision to relieve him of his responsibilities with our team,” Lions head coach Matt Patricia said in a statement. “I appreciate Joe鈥檚 leadership of our special teams units over the last three and a half seasons and have great respect for his many years of service as a coach in the National Football League. On behalf of our team and the entire coaching staff Graham Glasgow Jersey White , I want to personally thank Joe for his commitment to the Detroit Lions and wish him and his family the best moving forward.鈥漃atricia decided to keep Marciano this year as a holdover from Jim Caldwell’s staff. The Lions’ special teams have struggled across the board, with kicker Matt Prater, punter Sam Martin and the returners all having bad years.

It would be a bit disingenuous to say the fate of the Kansas City Chiefs this season rests on the strong right arm of Patrick Mahomes II considering the second-year pro has started all of one NFL game.Still Germaine Pratt Jersey Womens , that's how most people view the Chiefs as they report to training camp.Yet the reality is there are a number of question marks as the club packs its trucks and makes the hour-long drive north to Missouri Western State University.Mahomes may be the biggest, but the way these questions sort out will ultimately determine whether a franchise that went to the playoffs four times in five years under quarterback Alex Smith can win a third straight AFC West title.There are holes everywhere on defense. There is a new offensive coordinator and a few new assistant coaches. There is a leadership and experience void after the departure of longtime linebackers Tamba Hali and Derrick Johnson. And some crucial players are coming off major injuries.In short, the Chiefs could be very good this season. Or they could be very bad.Good luck trying to peg where they end up."We have a lot of new faces and we welcome new faces," Chiefs coach Andy Reid conceded, "but they're learning and they've got great energy."As the Chiefs' rookies, quarterbacks and selected veterans report to camp on Sunday, here are some of the crucial story lines to watch throughout August and into September:MAHOMES THE MAN: The team turns to the former Texas Tech star after Smith was traded to Washington this past offseason. The Chiefs traded up to select him 10th overall then gave him a redshirt season to learn the ropes, only to watch him dazzle in a Week 17 win at Denver when Smith and most of the starters got the weekend off.The Chiefs have tried to help him out. They signed Sammy Watkins to pair with speedster Tyreek Hill in a potentially lethal wide receiver combo, and tight end Travis Kelce and running back Kareem Hunt give Kansas City perhaps the most talented skill position group in the league."Me and Patrick have a great bond. I feel like he is going to do great," said Hunt Germaine Pratt Cincinnati Bengals Jersey , the NFL rushing champion as a rookie last season. "He definitely already has a leader role and he is just able to go out there and make big plays. I am excited to see him get out there."CORNERBACK COMPETITION: The Chiefs traded talented malcontent Marcus Peters to the Rams, hoping the improved locker-room atmosphere would offset the loss of a skilled playmaker. Now, the Chiefs will have to find two new starting cornerbacks after also releasing veteran Terrance Mitchell.Kendall Fuller came over in the Smith trade and is the front-runner for one job, and Steven Nelson is the leading candidate at the other, provided he can stay healthy. But keep an eye on Raiders castoff David Amerson, former third-round pick Will Redmond and rookies Tremon Smith and Arrion Springs.Smith was the Chiefs' sixth-round pick out of Central Arkansas while Springs impressed during the team's voluntary summer workouts as an undrafted free agent out of Oregon.INJURY ISLAND: The Chiefs will rely heavily on Eric Berry to lead this season, but they also need him to perform at a Pro Bowl level again after tearing his Achilles tendon in last season's opener.Wide receiver Chris Conley will likewise be counted upon after a season-ending injury in Week 5.NEW VOICES: Eric Bieniemy was promoted to offensive coordinator after Matt Nagy took the top job in Chicago, which means Mahomes will have a new voice in his ear. And a loud one, too. There are few coaches that have the ability to bark quite like the former NFL running back.The Chiefs also have a new quarterbacks coach in Mike Kafka and decided to split the linebackers job between outside coach Mike Smith and inside coach Mark DeLeone.OTHER JOBS: Backup jobs on offense are wide open: Jace Amaro and Tim Wright will compete for tight end time, Spencer Ware and Damien Williams are fighting for time behind Hunt Germaine Pratt Jersey 2019 , and DeMarcus Robinson, Jehu Chesson, De'Anthony Thomas and undrafted rookie Byron Pringle are in the mix at wide receiver.On defense, Derrick Nnandi and Xavier Williams are trying to replace Bennie Logan at nose tackle, and rookie Breeland Speaks should push Allen Bailey for the starting defensive end job.In the defensive backfield, keep an eye on rookies Armani Watts and Dorian O'Daniel as they compete for the starting free safety job. Roster holdover Leon McQuay could also be in the mix."This organization is full of winners," defensive end Chris Jones said. "Everybody is eager to win and they are going to take the necessary steps to put the pieces together."

EDTShareTweetShareShareBengals scheduled to have UCF OT Wyatt Miller in for a visitMatt Stamey-USA TODAY SportsThe Bengals look to be in the market for an offensive tackle after the first round. After meeting with Alabama State prospect Tytus Howard last week, they’re using a top-30 visit on another offensive tackle in Central Florida’s Wyatt Miller.Miller isn’t expected to be drafted very high, if at all. Per Tony Pauline Germaine Pratt Jersey Mens , he has already had a workout with the New York Jets and he had a local workout with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. At his pro day, Miller even had some reps snapping and pulling.A former baseball player, Miller started in 47 games for the Golden Knights. From his freshman to junior year, Miller held down the right tackle spot before moving over to left tackle last year. Miller did not receive an invite to the NFL combine, but he did test at his pro day.40-Yard Dash: 5.3720-Yard Dash: 3.0610-Yard Dash: 1.82Bench Reps: 14Vertical Jump: 26 1/2”Broad Jump: 08’05’’20-Yard Shuttle: 4.783-Cone Drill: 8.00Miller seems like an ideal priority free agent target for a team in need of versatile offensive lineman, so the Bengals would be a great fit.

After missing Monday night’s game against the Minnesota Vikings Terrell Owens Jersey White , wide receiver Doug Baldwin returned to limited participation in practice for the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday.Baldwin was held out of Monday’s game due to a hip issue that flared up following the team’s win over the San Francisco 49ers the previous week. Baldwin played 54 of 58 offensive snaps against the 49ers but was unable to practice all last week before being deemed inactive against the Vikings.With Baldwin out, Russell Wilson was held to the fewest passing yards and lowest passer rating of any game in his seven-year career as Seahawks starting quarterback by Minnesota.Baldwin has missed three games this season and has dealt with injuries to both knees, hip, groin and elbow injuries throughout the season.Linebacker K.J. Wright also returned to limited participation in practice for the first time since being sidelined with a knee injury coming out of the team’s loss in Los Angeles to the Rams last month. Wright was away from the team two weeks ago getting treatment on his knee the team hoped would enable him to turn the corner in his rehab. Wright has been limited to just three games played all season due to a knee injury in the preseason that required surgery and forced him to miss the first six games of the year. He’s missed the four games since again being sidelined.Wright isn’t expected to play this week but is progressing toward a return. With Mychal Kendricks, who Seattle signed in September to help mitigate Wright’s absence, out for the year after injuring his knee against the Vikings on Monday night, Seattle would love to get Wright back for a likely playoff trip.Right guard D.J. Fluker (hamstring), running back Rashaad Penny (knee), safety Maurice Alexander (concussion), defensive tackle Shamar Stephen (foot), defensive end Frank Clark (elbow) and defensive tackle Jarran Reed (oblique) all missed practice on Thursday.Fluker likely won’t play for a second straight week and Alexander is running out of time to clear concussion protocol in time to return. 49ers-Rams final scoreThe 49ers dropped to 1-6 with an ugly 39-10 loss in Week 7. The 49ers turned the ball over four times, and when you do that and don’t get any takeaways of your own, things won’t go well. Add in this happening against the Rams, and Aaron Donald getting four sacks, and a beatdown is a given. Aside from a surge from George Kittle in the second quarter, nothing went right for the 49ers, and this game went about how many expected. The 49ers face the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8.Adrian Colbert injuryFree safety Adrian Colbert suffered a leg injury early in the third quarter and was taken off on the training staff’s medical cart. The team has announced he is questionable to return, but it’s unlikely we see him back in Week 7.Fooch’s update: It sounds like he’s OK!49ers get on the boardIt has not been a pretty game, but the 49ers got on the board with a big close to the second quarter by George Kittle. He had three receptions for 69 yards and a touchdown, including this physical display. The 49ers trail 22-7 in the second quarter.49ers struggling earlyThe Rams have taken a 15-0 lead thanks to a pair of turnovers and a blocked punt. The 49ers are on pace for the worst turnover differential in NFL history, and would have three turnovers today if the blocked punt had not rolled out of the back of the end zone. It resulted in a safety instead of Rams touchdown. It’s a disastrous day thus far for the 49ers.Early Matt Breida injuryAfter a two-yard run, Matt Breida had to leave the game after an ankle injury. Michael Brockers landed on his ankle after the play and Breida was clearly in pain. He was able to walk off the field, but had a limp and had to get his ankle taped up. Alfred Morris took his place, with Raheem Mostert getting some work as well. The 49ers have declared Breida questionable to return.Fooch’s update: Breida’s backInactivesThe 49ers and Rams released their inactives for Week 7, and San Francisco could be in trouble. Richard Sherman suffered a setback on his calf and will not play. He and Jimmie Ward are both inactive, which means Ahkello Witherspoon and Greg Mabin will start. Rookie Tarvarius Moore could get some playing time as well.49ers inactives: WR Dante Pettis, CB Jimmie Ward, CB Richard Sherman Womens Adrian Colbert Jersey , OG Joshua Garnett, DL Jullian Taylor, OL Shon Coleman, DL D.J. JonesRams inactives: WR Cooper Kupp, DB Darious Williams, RB Justin Davis, RB John Kelly, C Brian Allen, DT Sebastian Joseph-Day, DT Tanzel Smart49ers-Rams previewThe San Francisco 49ers are getting ready to take on not just one of the NFC’s best, but the NFL’s in the Los Angeles Rams. This being a divisional matchup makes the stakes in this game even higher.The 49ers have not had a win since Week 2, and came close against the Green Bay Packers last week on Monday Night Football. The Rams have not lost a game yet due to a devastating offense and a dominating defense. Who knows what’s going to happen?This will be an afternoon game kicking off at 1:25 PM.The game will air on CBS and you can see who gets it by looking at our broadcast map. Kevin Harlan, Rich Gannon, and Steve Tasker will be calling the game. The 49ers-Rams game was one many fans were looking forward to, mostly thanks to the rivalry between 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan and Rams head coach Sean McVay. Unfortunately, expectations have been lowered since Jimmy Garoppolo tore his ACL in the 49ers Week 3 away game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Now the 49ers are playing for pride with C.J. Beathard and the Rams are trying to further tighten their grip on the division. For Week 7, the Rams will be without wide receiver Cooper Kupp. McVay has indicated everyone but Kupp should be good for Sunday. The 49ers meanwhile will be without wide receiver Dante Pettis. Cornerback Jimmie Ward is also listed as doubtful after a hamstring injury against the Packers.

The Dallas Cowboys wrapped up the NFC East title when Dak Prescott accounted for two touchdowns and Jaylon Smith returned a fumble 69 yards for a score in a 27-20 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Smith’s long return came after a scrambling Jameis Winston lost the ball on a blind-side sack by Randy Gregory Mike Alstott Jersey , who also recovered a fumble to set up a touchdown for a 14-point lead late in the third quarter. The Cowboys (9-6) clinched the division title and their second trip to the playoffs in three years with Prescott and star running back Ezekiel Elliott a week after failing in their first chance with their first shutout loss in 15 years, 23-0 at Indianapolis. Winston threw for 336 yards in another prolific passing game for the Buccaneers (5-10), who outgained the Cowboys 383-232 but hurt themselves with turnovers and holding penalties. Tampa Bay’s third straight loss clinched the franchise’s fifth season of at least 10 losses in the past six years, a week after the Bucs were eliminated from postseason contention.More Tampa Bay Buccaneers newsNFL history: Buccaneers become first team with two female coaches on staffBucs agree to terms with LB Bucannon, WR Perriman, punter Pinion in free agencyBuccaneers reportedly set to sign Breshad Perriman after WRvoided agreement with BrownsBuccaneers re-sign offensive tackle Donovan Smith to 3-year, $41.25 million contractJaguars CB Jalen Ramsey catches a TD on offense as AFC thumps NFC in rainy Pro Bowl in OrlandoSmith’s fumble return and Gregory’s recovery at the Tampa Bay 4 helped a Dallas offense that wasn’t sharp for a second straight week. Prescott was 20 of 25 but for just 161 yards. Prescott ran 7 yards to cap the only lengthy Dallas touchdown drive, a 75-yarder. He threw a 4-yard score to rookie Michael Gallup after Gregory’s recovery, which came when Winston and Bobo Wilson botched the exchange on a handoff to the receiver. Before the bad Winston-Wilson exchange in a seven-point game, Peyton Barber‘s 33-yard run was wiped out by one of four holding penalties against the Bucs. Smith gave the Cowboys a 14-3 lead in the second quarter, scooping up the loose ball after Gregory hit Winston from behind and outrunning the Tampa Bay quarterback down the sideline for his first career touchdown. Winston’s 7-yard pass to Mike Evans got the Bucs within a touchdown with 2:05 remaining John Lynch Jersey , but Dallas linebacker Leighton Vander Esch recovered the onside kick. Evans had six catches for 90 yards, and Adam Humphries had 10 grabs for 79 yards. With a chance to get within a touchdown earlier in the fourth quarter, Winston was stopped about half a yard short of the first down at the Dallas 1 on a fourth-down scramble.RUSHING RACEElliott, the NFL rushing leader by 98 yards over Todd Gurley of the Los Angeles Rams coming in, had 85 yards on 18 carries and 24 yards receiving on five catches. His final run, an 11-yarder inside the final two minutes, allowed the Cowboys to run out the clock. Elliott has 1,434 yards with a meaningless game at the Giants remaining.INJURIESDallas defensive lineman Tyrone Crawford went to a hospital to have a neck injury evaluated after getting hurt on the second play of the game. Crawford’s neck was stabilized on a stretcher with his facemask removed, and several teammates looked distraught as he was treated on the field. The seventh-year player was moving his arms while on the stretcher, and moved his legs while being treated before going on the stretcher. … Bucs receiver DeSean Jackson, inactive the previous three games http://www.buccaneerslockerroom.com/authentic-chandler-catanzaro-jersey , went out early in the second half with a foot injury.UP NEXTBuccaneers: Finale at home against Atlanta next Sunday. Cowboys: Regular-season finale at the Giants next Sunday.Jameis has to carry over the momentum Jameis Winston has had a phenomenal preseason. No turnovers, three touchdowns, and his lowest quarterback rating was 99.4 in the game against Miami. He’s looked sharp, he’s avoided mistakes, and he’s hit receivers in stride.But now, he waits. The Buccaneers wait.The fans wait.Jameis won’t see another snap until he takes the field in Chicago on September 30. He won’t practice for three weeks once the final preseason game is in the books. The biggest question is, can he carry this momentum he’s built over into the fourth week of the NFL season without practicing?It won’t be easy, but we can hope.The biggest thing to watch for is the way Winston has protected the football. Although he will make something from nothing and have jaw dropping plays, he also has those boneheaded moments where you wished he had just thrown the ball away. Koetter spoke to the media about Winston’s ability to protect the football thus far;The Bucs would love to see Jameis make that leap in his career. To be more self-aware and protect the football. When he does, the offense has all the pieces and makings of one of the most prolific and dangerous in all of football.They just can’t afford for Winston to regress back to his knack for forcing throws that aren’t there in order to try to make something happen.
