3 ways Dan Rooney changed the NFL forever

Posted by on April 22, 2017 in Hockey Jerseys Cheap

Dan Rooney was more than a team owner, he was a beloved and respected man who shaped the NFL into what it is today. On an immediate level he turned the Pittsburgh Steelers into one of football’s most-successful teams, but he also did critically important work that will have an impact on the game for decades to come.

Much of Rooney’s work was behind the scenes. It’s one of the reasons why he’s respected by other owners and league officials so much — but there are a few high-profile things he achieved.

Samuel’s commitment marks the continuation of some excellent defensive back recruiting by Jimbo Fisher’s FSU. The Noles landed three blue-chip DBs in the 2017 class, including another NFL legacy in cornerback Stanford Samuels. In 2016, they signed the top-rated corner in the country, Levonta Taylor, and two other blue-chips. They’ve accumulated talent to the point where throwing on FSU should be difficult for the next three or four seasons, at least. And Fisher probably isn’t done.

Missing out on Samuel will sting for Miami, but not all’s lost for the Cheap Jerseys NFL Hurricanes. Mark Richt’s team still has the No. 1 class in the country for 2018, with 15 commits already. That class includes two four-star cornerbacks.

Indianapolis still needs to round its offensive line for Andrew Luck, but Cheap Green Bay Packers Jerseys that unit is not as pressing as one might think. Getting stronger in the middle defensively takes precedence, but the Colts’ first pick might be more in the wheelhouse of a workhorse back.

The NFL’s flexibile scheduling system could impact FOX and CBS broadcasts as well next season.

Since 2006, the NFL has implemented a flexible schedule that allows the league to move more favorable matchups into prime time Sunday Night Footbal, making the changes two weeks ahead of the game. That system could be headed for a bit of a change, as ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the flexible scheduling could impact the afternoon matchups as well:

Green Bay was expected to lean heavily on Eddie Lacy and the run game with Rodgers sidelined with a fractured collarbone, but has mustered just 13 rushing yards against the Giants. Lacy, the team’s second-round pick in the 2017 draft, has seven carries for just 14 yards, and James Starks has lost a yard on his two carries.

Lacy had 150 yards in a loss to Chicago two weeks ago when Rodgers suffered his injury, but managed just a 3.0 yards per carry average during a 73-yard performance in a loss to the Eagles last week.

Tolzien led the Packers down the field with 1:18 remaining in the half in a drive that resulted in a 57-yard field goal from Mason Crosby. The kick was one yard shy of the Packers’ franchise record and is the longest kick ever made against the Giants.

The Giants scored their only touchdown on a 26-yard pass from Eli Manning to Rueben Randle during the first quarter.

Glennon hasn’t looked comfortable making those throws, so the Where To Find Cheap Jerseys two hadn’t been able to take the top off the defense much in their time together. Until Sunday when the Bucs lambasted the Falcons.

Glennon and Jackson connected on 10 passes for Troy Polamalu Cheap Jerseys 165 yards, including a 47-yard strike early in the game that Jackson snagged with one hand and a beautiful 53-yard bomb in the third quarter. It wasn’t beautiful because Glennon hit Jackson in stride after he had outrun the defender. It was beautiful because Glennon threw it up to Jackson even though he was still covered pretty decently by Falcons safety Thomas DeCoud, allowing Jackson to make a play for the ball.

Gary Kubiak to return Sunday, Sam Baker to injured reserve and more

Houston Texans head coach Gary Kubiak is expected to coach on Sunday against the Oakland Raiders. Kubiak missed the team’s Week 10 game against the Arizona Cardinals after suffering a minor stroke the week prior. Kubiak had collapsed on the field during Houston’s Week 9 game. Wade Phillips served as the interim head coach last week.

Houston Texans running back Arian Foster has been banged up all season. He dealt with a hamstring injury early in the year and is now dealing with a back injury. Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals will be the first game he misses this season though, as he’s already been ruled out. Foster has an issue with a disc in his back and is reportedly doing everything he can in hopes of suiting up again in 2013. That would require avoiding surgery at this point.

Sunday’s game seems to have been tailor-made to stump bettors. Ultimately, a determination one way or the other may depend on one’s confidence in Cutler’s health. If the quarterback can play without limitations, Chicago may be the tempting pick given its recent success against Detroit at home. If Cutler is rusty, an upstart Lions team may be the better option.

The Rams picked up a big win at Indianapolis and managed to do so without taking any more significant injury hits. James Laurinaitis left the game due to a cut, but returned after receiving stitches in his right ear. Benny Cunningham also left the game briefly before returning.

Cornerback Brandon McGee suffered a hip injury, the severity Raiders Cheap Jerseys of which is still unknown. He was listed as questionable to return but did not play the rest of the way. The Rams have Cheap Bike Jerseys For Men a bye week this week, giving McGee and others an extra week to recover.

Ten weeks are in the books and the NFC playoff picture is still difficult to discern.

Posted by on March 28, 2017 in Hockey Jerseys Cheap

Week 10 in the NFL made only one division race more clear as the Seattle Seahawks extended their lead in the NFC West to three games.

San Francisco needed a win over Carolina to narrow the gap, but that task is extremely difficult following their loss. The 49ers still hold a wild card spot at 6-3, but the head-to-head loss made Carolina leapfrog San Francisco in the conference standings. This wont play a role now, but could set up an interesting scenario if Arizona continue to win games and pressure for a playoff spot. Importance could be placed on a Week 16 matchup with the Cardinals to determine final seeding.

Drew Brees: A+ for the game (3.22 for the season) He was 34 for 41 for 392 yards, 4 touchdowns and no interceptions. It was one of the most flawless performances he’s ever had, and that’s saying something. I could write for days about what he did well in this game, suffice to say it was peak performance by one of the best to ever play.
The blowout loss, meanwhile, puts the Cowboys’ season in serious jeopardy. Over the first half of the season, Dallas was clearly the NFC East’s strongest team. Now the rest of the division is hitting its stride just as the Cowboys are entering a down slope. KD Drummond at Cowboys blog Blogging The Boys is worried.

The loss leaves Dallas in the precarious position of now not having any facet of their team working correctly, and two weeks to sit and stew on the loss. It will be interesting to see which Find Cheap Jerseys Online direction Dallas goes coming out of the break, with a date in New York on the horizon. The rest of the division appears NFL 21 Cheap Jerseys to be playing better than the Cowboys right now, and they won’t be able to rest on their 3-0 division mark any longer.
