Ola Nola (AZ/NO Pre-Game Tidbits)

“There is a house in New Orleans Customized Arizona Cardinals Jerseys , they call the Rising Sun...”Will the Cardinals game with the Saints tonight be the “ruin of many poor boys” or the fresh onset of a new, sunny day?Over the years the Super Dome has been a dark cavern of doom for the Cardinals, particularly in the divisional round of the playoffs on January 16, 2010 when the Saints put a literal 45-14 pounding on the defending NFC champs.It was the game that closed out the career of QB Kurt Warner, who, after throwing an interception trying to rally the Cardinals back from a 28-14 deficit, was on the wrong end of a bone crushing blindside block by DE Charles Grant, one of defensive coordinator Gregg Williams’ designated bounty hunters.This hit forced Warner out of the game in the 2nd quarter, who was replaced by Matt Leinart.The Saints, behind QB Drew Brees, would go on to beat the Vikings in overtime in the NFC Championship and then post an impressive 31-17 Super Bowl XLIV win over the Colts and QB Peyton Manning.Here it is eight years later—-and Drew Brees is still performing his magic in New Orleans. While he did not play in the Saints’ first pre-season game, a come from behind 24-20 win over the Jags in Jacksonville, Brees is scheduled to play tonight.Brees is backed up by ex-Texan Tom Savage, whose best game last year was against the Cardinals in November. But it was two big sacks late in the game (one a strip sack) and the spirited play of #3 dual-threat QB Tayson Hill that gave the Saints the 24-20 win. Hill is adept at running read options and various other RPOs. Here is a good look if you want to see:https://www.neworleanssaints.com/video/s...eason-week-1For the Cardinals, this trip to New Orleans is a homecoming of sorts for CB Patrick Peterson (LSU), WR Chad Williams (Madison Prep H.S., Baton Rouge), WR Jaylen Tolliver (Rayville, LA), G Josh Allen (Lousiiana-Monroe), RB Sherman Badie (Tulane), DE Vontarrious Dora (LouisianaTech) and newly re-signed CB Harlan Miller (Kentworth H.S., LA). Chances are that the Cardinals’ Alabama natives, WR J.J. Nelson (Midfield, AL, UAB), Andre Smith (Huffman H.S. AL, Alabama), CB Chris Campbell (Phenix City, AL) Authentic Pat Tillman Jersey , Korey Cunningham (Monticello, AL) and S Rudy Ford ( New Hope, AL, Auburn) will have a number of family and friends in attendance.Of the aforementioned Cardinals with local ties to Louisiana and Alabama, it would be auspicious to see WR Chad Williams, after a tough week in practice and no receptions in game one, emerge as one of the brightest lights on the roster. It will be interesting to see if Jaylen Tolliver can build on his biy 47 yard catch last week—-if G Josh Allen can continue to make his case for a roster spot—-if RB Sherman Badie can make a splash (Green Wave style) this week in the 4th quarter—-if Vontarrious Dora can notch his first sack of the pre-season—-and if S Rudy Ford can continue his swift rise up the depth chart.But the biggest question of the night is whether the Cardinals, with Sam Bradford and Josh Rosen taking the first half snaps behind the first string offensive line, can unveil a more diversified and productive passing game. One of the points of emphasis in practice this week was converting third downs, after going 0-11 in that category versus the Chargers. On the other side of the ball, the Cardinals will face a formidable test from Drew Brees and his plethora of playmakers, most notably star RB Alvin Kamara, solid RB Mark Ingram and stud WR Michael Thomas.On special teams, if there is one Saint the Cardinals would like to put a licking on, it’s Ted Ginn Jr. The Cardinals fared well on special teams last week, featuring Christian Kirk, who appears to be the most talented and promising punt returner since young Patrick Peterson. How well will the special teams perform in their first road test?Will this game be a “Big Easy” for the Saints—-or a “Delta Dawn” for the Cardinals? Four games, four losses.Not even the most pessimistic of fans could have predicted this start. After four weeks, the Redbirds are the only team in the league without a win. We’re 0-3 at home, where we’ve protected the nest in recent years, and we’ve scored a piddling 37 points total—that’s right, less than 10 points per game.Shameful. Inexcusable. Indefensible.It’s hard to fathom how we wound up here, especially considering that we had the ball on 1st and 10 at the Seattle 31 with 2:59 to play and the Seahawks down to one timeout. All we had to do was get a single first down and we could grind down the clock and kick a chip shot FG to win the game.Instead, we鈥?did not do that.Like last week, some poor play on the field was compounded by some seriously boneheaded coaching decisions, and the crowd at State Farm Field was let down once again. Let’s run through the most impactful factors/moments that led to the loss, figure out who’s to blame, and see if there’s any hope moving forward.Offensive Run DefenseSunday had a chance to be a get-right game for the Redbirds run defense. Seattle’s O-line woes are well documented, their starting RB Chris Carson was a late scratch, and their 1st-round rookie Rashaad Penny (brother of Elijhaa) hasn’t done much. Enter third-stringer Mike Davis Pat Tillman Jersey Limited , who proceeded to run for 101 yards and 2 TDs on 21 carries. Adding in contributions from Penny and Russell Wilson, the Seahawks put up 171 yards on 34 carries (5.0 YPC). The Cardinals are now 31st in the league in rushing defense—after finishing 6th last season.Assigning the Blame: The Cardinals have talent in the front seven—Cory Peters has been a rock, and the team has spent recent 1st-round picks on the likes of Robert Nkemdiche, Deone Bucannon, and Haason Reddick. Talent isn’t the problem—it’s scheme. These are 3-4 players trying to adjust to the Carolina 4-3 (when we’re not in nickel, that is) of Steve Wilks and Al Holcomb. The scheme obviously isn’t working with the personnel we have, so it’s on the coaches to adapt. And they simply haven’t thus far.Where to Go from Here: Wilks and Holcomb need to adjust their scheme to the talent of the players of the roster. Consider moving Bucannon back to a hybrid safety role, let Reddick rush the passer more (he had a sack on Sunday), and maybe stop playing so much nickel on obvious rushing downs.A Bad Case of the DropsIt wasn’t all bad news for the Redbirds on Sunday, as rookie QB Josh Rosen passed the eye test and earned strong reviews for his debut start. His numbers were somewhat pedestrian—15/27, 180 yards, and 1 TD—but they could have been much better if it weren’t for all the drops. Stalwart Cardinals writer Darren Urban estimated that Rosen’s numbers would have been about 20/27, 261 yards, and 2 TDs if Larry Fitzgerald(!), Christian Kirk, J.J. Nelson, and Ricky Seals-Jones had held onto several catchable balls. (Plus there was the near-TD by Chad Williams where he was just unable to get a second foot down on the sideline.) The Redbirds WR room has been a known weak spot, and they let the team down big-time on Sunday, costing us precious yardage and, potentially, points.Assigning the Blame: It’s easy to blame the players on the field—yes, even Fitz—but GM Steve Keim deserves a ton of blame for not doing more to augment the position during the offseason—or even during the season. (Rishard Matthews is available, after all.) Plus, it’s worth pointing out that on a day where J.J. Nelson was doing this for the Cardinals, John Brown was doing this for the Ravens.Where to Go from Here: J.J. Nelson probably needs to be cut at this point. Keim needs to do what many of us who play fantasy football do on Sunday mornings—scour the free agent list for a WR and hope they can produce.Kicker WoesIt seems like points are always at a premium in Cardinals/Seahawks games, and Sunday was no exception. You can’t have your kicker miss two FGs in these kinds of games and expect to win. Granted, neither of them were gimmes (45 and 50 yards), but didn’t we stick with Dawson because he’s a steady veteran? He didn’t play like one on Sunday.Assigning the Blame: Obviously, Dawson should be expected to hit the potential game-winning 45-yarder, but it shouldn’t have been that long of a kick http://www.arizonacardinalsteamonline.com/pat-tillman-jersey , which is firmly the coaching staff’s fault (more on that below). But you can also argue that Dawson shouldn’t have been kicking in the first place. It doubly hurts knowing that preseason star Matt McCrane hit a game-winner for the Raiders later Sunday afternoon. Yet another Steve Keim decision that didn’t work out.Where to Go from Here: Dawson probably needs to go too. He just doesn’t have the leg strength/accuracy required of an NFL kicker anymore. This was obvious even in the preseason. Keim needs to find a stopgap replacement for the rest of the season and then address the position in the offseason.Another Questionable 3rd-Down RunSimply put, the coaching staff completely bungled the endgame on Sunday. As I said above, we just needed to gain one first down on our final possession. That would have accomplished two things: 1) it would’ve made the would-be game-winning FG much easier, and 2) it would’ve let us drain most of the clock down to prevent Russell Wilson from doing exactly what he did—march down the field for the win if we missed the kick.It started with that 1st and 10 with 2:59 left. We got a Mike McCoy special: unimaginative run into the pile. Then on 2nd and 8? You guessed it—another unimaginative run into the pile. But the worst playcall came after the two-minute warning—just like it did last week. With all that time to call the perfect play—remembering again that we had to have a first down—we got鈥?yep, another unimaginative run into the pile. At least it was David Johnson getting stuffed this time. Small consolation.Keep in mind that Rosen was 4/5 for 39 yards on the drive up until that point. If you can trust your rookie QB enough to put him into a tight game in the 4th quarter last week, you can trust him enough to put the ball in his hands in a tight game in the 4th quarter this week, right? One completion and you can drain the clock down and kick a 35-39 yard FG (instead of 45) to win.Instead鈥?unimaginative run into the pile, Russell Wilson gets two minutes to gain 30 yards, and Sea Bass kicks the game-winner. Ugh.Assigning the Blame: Mike McCoy makes the offensive playcalls, but Steve Wilks says he can “veto or confirm” any playcall. However the decision to run it up the middle on 3rd and 6 at the Seattle 27 was made, it was a lousy decision and the buck stops with the man in charge—Steve Wilks. Whether he confirmed McCoy’s call of the run or just declined to veto it doesn’t matter. It was the wrong call and it cost us the game. At this point, I wish he’d just veto Mike McCoy entirely, to be honest.Where to Go from Here: Fire. Mike. McCoy. I’m gonna keep saying it until it happens.Final ThoughtsSunday’s loss was the result of several of our players being put in a position to fail by our GM/coaching staff, and the one player who could have saved the game—Josh Rosen—not being given the chance to do so. It’s that simple.It’s not just the 0-4 start, but the way it has happened—these last two weeks especially—that has many Cardinals fans wondering if we have the right leadership on the sidelines and in the front office. But Steve Keim just signed an extension, and Steve Wilks and his staff are in their first year on the job, so we may be stuck with them for a while.They, like our players, need to respond in the right way to this adversity. Before the Bears game, I wrote about how the Cardinals have been plagued by passivity lately. That proved true against the Seahawks with the way known weaknesses (WR, LB, K) came back to bite us and the way the coaching staff screwed up the endgame with overly conservative decisions.We’ll learn a lot about our leadership by the way they respond. If McCoy, Nelson, and Dawson continue to have jobs, if we don’t try to bring in reinforcements, if we continue to struggle to score points and stop the run, if we continue to be passive鈥?we’ll have learned that these are not the men to lead our franchise.But if we do something to try to change our fortunes—even if it just amounts to rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic—I think most Cardinals fans would feel a little bit better about the direction of our team. Cold comfort to be sure, but better than the hot air these guys have been blowing so far.

It was only two weeks ago

when the confidence in the Arizona Cardinals were sky high. They were coming off a preseason where the offense looked efficient and the defense forced a record-setting 17 turnovers. But the preseason is not the regular season and the Cardinals are learning that the hard way.With an 0-2 start Arizona Cardinals Hats , the team has not play well at all during the losing streak and the statistics speaks for itself. Offense:3.0 Points Per Game (Rank: 32nd)175.0 Total Yards Per Game (Rank: 32nd)114 Pass Yards Per Game (Rank: 32nd)61.0 Rush Yards Per Game (Rank: 31st)Defense:29.0 Points Per Game (Rank: 25th)430.5 Total Yards Per Game (Rank: 29th)294.5 Pass Yards Per Game (Rank: 25th)136.0 Rush Yards Per Game (Rank: 26th)The Arizona Cardinals currently have the worst offense in the NFL. Sam Bradford is averaging four yards per pass, which is worst among starting quarterbacks. He does not throw the ball down field much and a lot of his passes are short and behind the line of scrimmage.David Johnson should be the playmaker of the offense but he was limited to only 27 touches in the shutout loss. The team has been penalized a total of 19 times this season, which is tied for sixth-most in the NFL. The mastermind behind this atrocious offense is Mike McCoy. One too many times he would call run plays on back-to-back long downs. That won’t get the team anywhere. There is a reason why he was fired as the Chargers head coach and as the Broncos offensive coordinator. His plays are too conservative and nothing in his playbook so far has fooled a defense. The Cardinals’ defense definitely stepped up against the Rams’ run game, limiting Todd Gurley to 42 yards on 19 carries. Unfortunately they allowed him to rush for three touchdowns. The defensive line needs to generate more pressure on the quarterback. Corey Peters and Robert Nkemdiche were okay at stuffing the run but they generated very little to no pressure. Benson Mayowa had a big game with two sacks but we need to see this kind of performance from him on a consistent basis. When there is very little pressure on the quarterback, opposing offenses are bound to make big plays. Jamar Taylor needs step up his game as the number two cornerback. We will probably see a lot more Bene Benwikere very soon. Deone Bucannon and Haason Reddick were limited to nickel packages Black Andre Smith Jersey , and the run defense was a whole lot better as a result. But the pass defense wasn’t much better, even with the usual good performances by Patrick Peterson.If Steve Wilks is truly evaluating the entire team, there are glaring problems that he needs to address immediately and it starts with the coaching staff. Is Mike McCoy the problem? Is Al Holcomb not ready to be the defensive coordinator? I won’t go as far as saying that hiring Wilks was a mistake but he needs to look at the big picture and do what is best for this team right now.Next they will have to look at the players. Is it time to start Josh Rosen in place of the struggling Sam Bradford? What plays can be changed or taken out to better utilize David Johnson’s skill set? Is it time to look at free agents and actually consider all of the options available?Personally, I have never seen an offense as bad as the Cardinals this season. They literally can’t do anything right.There is no denying the fact that the Arizona Cardinals are the worst team in the NFL and have been outscored 58-6.Accountability and taking advantage of the opportunities is key. Changes need to be made now or else the season will be lost.Arizona Cardinals run blocking... One of the best in the NFL per one metric The Arizona Cardinals have been bad. They are looked at as the consensus worst team in the NFL through three weeks in the 2018 NFL Power Rankings.They have the worst offense in the NFL, by a wide statistical margin and they have already benched their $20 million free agent quarterback less than three full games in.In other words Black Tre Boston Jersey , it’s been a long year and we are only three weeks in.However, the Cardinals can point to one improvement that could be something to watch as the 2018 NFL season continues to unfold.The Arizona Cardinals, according to K.C. Joyner of ESPN are a top 10 team in terms of run blocking in the NFL.Yes, these Arizona Cardinals.Yes, the 2018 Arizona Cardinals.Yes Black Benson Mayowa Jersey , I have proof he said this.So, through three games, with David Johnson looking positively human, Chase Edmonds getting tackled in the backfield on a third and two play in the games pivotal moments, the Cardinals offensive line has been one of the best in the NFL in the run game.Maybe if Josh Rosen can help lift the passing game up Youth Mason Cole Jersey , we can see some of the positives of that improved run blocking.See, it’s not all bad for 2018.

Week one fantasy matchups for Washington Redskins vs. Arizona Cardinals

#WASvsAZ It’s fantasy season again and two similarly matched teams will be at it again.Which players should you start and which should you sit?Let’s find out:Start of the Week: David Johnson http://www.authenticsarizonacardinals.com/cheap-antoine-bethea-jersey , RB, Arizona CardinalsThe Cardinals have been one of the top defenses against the run the last few years in the NFL, rarely letting running backs go off for 100 yards or more.The Redskins...aren’t.In fact they were the 4th worst in the NFL last year and are facing a healthy and retooled offensive line in Arizona, a run-heavy game under Steve Wilks and Mike McCoy that Bruce Arians never stuck to and a healthy, rejuvenated and recently paid David Johnson.That’s a lot to handle, even with a good defensive line.Expect Johnson to make a mark on the ground and passing game and even though you’ll already be starting him every week, he’s got a chance to eat in this game.Washington Start: Paul Richardson, WRWhy Richardson?Well despite the fact that AZ has Patrick Peterson playing more zone, it’s almost a rule that you start the #2 wide receiver against Arizona’s #2 corner.It won’t be the case where Peterson is trailing the top receiver like Josh Doctson now, sure Black Gabe Holmes Jersey , but with Crowder seeing a lot of Budda Baker and a rangy safety in Tre Boston, I’d guess that Richardson could beat Jamar Taylor on a deep ball given that Alex Smith improved so much in that aspect.Arizona Start: Ricky Seals-Jones, TEThe Skins gave up a ton of points to tight ends in fantasy last year, and Bradford will be looking his way often if the preseason is any indication.Even with Jermaine Gresham a game-time decision he’s still coming off of an injury.Start Seals-Jones and hope for 4-5 catches and potentially a touchdown.Washington Sit: Chris Thompson, RBI’d expect that Adrian Peterson will get a lot of carries but even coming off of injury Thompson might not get a lot on 3rd down in the passing game against Arizona’s deep safeties and athletic linebackers in Bucannon and Reddick.Wait a week to play him at this point.Arizona Sit: Chad Williams, WRWhile Williams is listed as the #2 wide receiver, he’ll rotate in and out with J.J. Nelson and Christian Kirk.Kirk will be returning punts behind Arizona’s newly upgraded special teams unit and with Larry Fitzgerald manning the slot, that means that Williams might see Josh Norman line up on him.Which isn’t good considering that the Redskins in 2017 didn’t allow a ton of points to WR’s.Sit Williams this week until he can prove himself in the offense on a regular basis.Sleeper Pick: Both DefensesThe Cardinals looked outstanding on defense in taking the ball away and getting pressure with Chandler Jones and Robert Nkemdiche in the preseason.The ‘Skins also looked to have a dominant defensive line.Both teams are a bit unstable in protection on the offensive line, meaning there’s potential for a field day for one or either team.I’d lean Washington over Arizona given the mobility of Alex Smith vs. Sam Bradford for right now but if the Arizona defense can keep up the turnover pace they showed in the preseason it’s going to have potential to get a ton of points there as well.Tweet your fantasy questions to @blakemurphy7 on Twitter. The Arizona Cardinals sit at 0-3 after their 16-14 defeat to the Chicago Bears.It was a completely predictable result based on what Sam Bradford and the offense had shown through two games.Despite jumping out to an early 14-0 lead in the first quarter over the Bears, the Cardinals offense was mostly stagnant.It seemed like the time was ripe after the first half to make the move to Josh Rosen Youth David Johnson Jersey , but it was the first signs of any offensive success, the 14 points, for the Cardinals in 2018, so not making the move was fine.Well, the offense continued to put the defense in bad positions and eventually, it caught up to them.After the third Sam Bradford turnover, the Bears held a 16-14 lead.It seemed hopeless.And, maybe that’s because with this coaching staff of the Arizona Cardinals, it is.This is not to say Steve Wilks and Al Holcomb cannot grow into their respective positions. We saw massive improvements defensively today, with Robert Nkemdiche continuing to grow into the player they drafted in the first round.However Larry Fitzgerald Jersey , with the defense, the continued play of Gerald Hodges and Tre Boston over their young linebackers in Haason Reddick and Deone Bucannon, brings to surface their decision making. It also brings up whether or not this is the staff to coach up young players at linebacker such as Bucannon and Reddick, or whether or not the Cardinals will be drafting another linebacker prospect early.The other question you have for Wilks is... why then and there for Josh Rosen?Sure Sam Bradford is not going to win you that game, but putting Rosen in at that juncture seems like an impossible situation for a rookie to get his first live NFL action. Of course, Wilks, like the rest of us had seen enough of Bradford at that point, but with four minutes to go, it just didn’t make much sense.The one indefensible coaching decision and person who doesn’t need to be in this coaching staff any longer is Mike McCoy.McCoy’s lack of ability as a play caller has been discussed more than anything non-Sam Bradford related on this site, and it reared its ugly head again in the Cardinals loss to the Bears.However Authentic Patrick Peterson Jersey , it was his decision to leave David Johnson on the sidelines, and go with running back Chase Edmonds on the pivotal third and two play coming off the two minute warning.It went for a three yard loss and of course Rosen would throw an interception on the next play and it was academic after that.The call to Edmonds is what it is, the execution was poor from the offensive line. However, not having Johnson on the field, to be something the Bears have to think about, is what is completely inexcusable and in the end should be one of the last decisions McCoy gets to make in Arizona.Call it an overreaction, but McCoy should not have much to do with Rosen’s development and he should be gone moving forward.I’m not ready to call it on Steve Wilks, but the longer McCoy is on the staff, the harder it will be to defend him.

When drafting in the top five of an NFL draft

teams hope to get the caliber Kelechi Osemele Jersey of a player that is defensive tackle Maurice Hurst. Yet, the Oakland Raiders were able to grab him in the fifth round of the 2018 NFL draft. Going in to the draft, Pro Football Focus rated Hurst as the third-best player available only behind Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield. Just crazy to think Oakland landed the third best prospect at the 140th pick. That is serious value. Value so high that I did just think of Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. Obviously that is unjust since Brady is arguably the GOAT, but I did think about it for a second. And yes, that is just all pre-draft hype, but Hurst has lived up to the expectations this season. While Hurst’s stats don’t jump out at you, with just two sacks and one forced fumble, he has been a menace constantly forcing pressure up the middle Cheap Reggie Nelson Jersey , batting balls at the line of scrimmage, and helping in the run game. For perspective, he is currently the 14th highest rated interior defender in the entire league according to PFF. Grady Jarret and Ndamukong Suh are the two players directly above him. Not bad company at all. Hurst also has the fourth-highest grade among any rookie defender behind Derwin James, Leighton Vander Esch, and Da’Shawn Hand. Esch and James were both first-round selections while Hand was a steal in the fourth round. Not only has Hurst’s great play been fun to watch, it could easily impact the Raiders’ future in next year’s draft. With PJ Hall and Hurst recently taken, Oakland might have the ability to pass on possible number one pick Ed Oliver. Oliver, defensive tackle from Houston http://www.raiderscheapshops.com/cheap-authentic-marshawn-lynch-jersey , is touted as one of the two best defensive players in all of college football. The other being Nick Bosa previously of Ohio State. But with the middle seemingly solidified with Hurst, the Raiders might not need Oliver. The combination of Hurst, who will create space for the outside rushers, and an elite pass rusher, maybe Nick Bosa, could be a dangerous combination for years to come. But then again, Suh and Aaron Donald have worked out quite nicely for the Los Angeles Rams, however http://www.raiderscheapshops.com/cheap-authentic-rashaan-melvin-jersey , getting an edge rusher should be far more important than adding to the inside. Regardless of what happens in the future, Oakland should be ecstatic that it found a top-five talent in the fifth round of the draft. That just doesn’t happen and every other team should feel stupid for passing up on Hurst. Hurst’s heart condition was a major risk and makes sense for pushing him out of the first round, but to the fifth round? That is absurd. Hurst is already one of the best defensive tackles in the league and will only continue to get better as time progresses. Greetings, Raider Nation! There’s one more game in Week 10, and it actually means something to the Raiders as far as draft position goes. The Giants and 49ers will play tonight, and both are in line for top-five draft picks. The outcome of this game will have a huge bearing on where the Raiders pick in next year’s draft. The Giants are 1-7 and the 49ers are 2-7.The 49ers will still be starting Nick Mullens, last seen shredding the Raiders, at quarterback. Their defensive line will be facing a pretty shoddy unit in the Giants’ offensive line. The Giants and 49ers both had high hopes coming into this season Cheap Jordy Nelson Jersey , with the 49ers starting new franchise quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, as did the Giants with shiny new running back Saquon Barkley, but none of that has worked out so far. Barkley has been stellar for the Giants, but everyone else has been a stark disappointment and the Giants are looking ahead to next season with the promise of a second straight Top-2 draft pick on the horizon.You can watch tonight’s game on ESPN at 5:20 PM Pacific, or stream on WatchESPN.

Since the moment Khalil Mack was traded

by the Oakland Raiders to the Chicago Bears http://www.raiderscheapshops.com/cheap-authentic-jared-cook-jersey , Jon Gruden has reiterated time and time again how hard it is to find pass rushers. Luckily for Gruden, he might have a few top 10 picks to help the position over the next few seasons and the 2019 NFL free agency class could be loaded with talented pass rushers. Jadeveon Clowney, Ezekiel Ansah, Demarcus Lawrence, Frank Clark, and Dante Fowler Jr. are among the notable names that might be available during next year’s free agency. However, there are more low-key targets like Aaron Lynch and Romeo Okwara that will likely be available as well. I am not sure if Oakland will only look to target veterans at the position, a mix, or just young guys because the team is obviously rebuilding but Gruden likes to get old at every position. As such, here are my three targets that the Raiders should go after in free agency in order of interest.Frank ClarkClark is having one of his best seasons yet with 7.5 sacks and three forced fumbles just eight games into the season.Oakland fans have seen how Clark can tear apart a game plan with his 2.5 sacks against Derek Carr and the offense. More than that Gabe Jackson Jersey , Clark is just 25 years old and has played in at least 15 games in each of his first three seasons. While it is unlikely that Seattle would let Clark slip through its fingers, he would be an ideal pass rusher to land considering his production, availability and age. Clark could be better against the run so he probably won’t garner elite-level pass rusher money and instead be around the $15 million range which is completely affordable without Mack on the roster. Jadeveon ClowneyIt would be ironic if the Raiders ended up with Clowney. Remember, Clowney went number one in the same draft as Mack who went number five. And everyone knows which player turned out better. However, Clowney is no slouch when on the field. He has had better luck staying healthy recently playing in all but three games over the past 2.5 seasons. With the recent availability, Clowney is on pace to have his first double-digit sack season and is on an upwards trend. In addition, Clowney is a stout run defender, unlike Clark, and would provide a well-rounded presence on the edge that is badly needed on the Oakland defense. It is possible that Clowney will see a bidding war on the open market for his services. That could slightly inflate his price, but the Raiders can’t be too picky. They need talent and Clowney is a great/young one. Aaron Lynch There are still others out there that would be intriguing additions like Fowler Cheap Derek Carr Jersey , Brandon Graham, Ansah and Lawrence, but Lynch could be a nice number two that could come at more of a bargain than the other names. Lynch is great against the run but also provides pressure on the edge. He isn’t a dominant pass rusher, just three sacks through eight games, but he will set the edge and can be a good robin to a batman. Furthermore, the Chicago defense has a lot of great players already, including Mack, which might make it hard for them to keep someone like Lynch. Lynch would be an under-the-radar signing, but he is only 25 years old and is an all around player. It wouldn’t be great if Lynch was the only edge defender signed, but if Oakland adds him while drafting/signing another big name Rodney Hudson Jersey , it would be an intelligent decision. It is great that there will be a plethora of talent at the position to go after in March, but does it really matter? If the Raiders’ climate doesn’t change by then, the only way Oakland will be able to land premier pass rushers will be through the draft or by overpaying talent. But so far, Gruden has not been willing to pay anyone. Greetings, Raider Nation! Today the Raiders are across the pond taking on former division rivals, the Seattle Seahawks, who now reside in the NFC West. Both teams are having difficult seasons so far and each are in desperate need of a victory.

Ndamukong Suh's not laughing at the Miami Dolphins' front four anymore

The five-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle poked fun at his former team's run defense on Instagram during the exhibition season. But after two games — both wins — the run defense appears better without Suh.Miami is allowing 3.3 yards per rush Womens Derek Carr Jersey , which ranks third in the NFL. That's a big improvement over last year's average of 4.1, which ranked 16th.And while the pass rush has totaled only three sacks, Miami has mustered enough pressure to force five interceptions, which is tied for the league lead entering Sunday's game against Oakland.It has been a collective effort to replace Suh, with all nine defensive linemen on the roster seeing significant playing time."Those guys have done a good job," coach Adam Gase said Wednesday. "They're doing well as a unit. I love the fact that they're all contributing."In last week's win at the Jets , eight defensive linemen had at least one tackle. The ninth — Charles Harris — had a sack negated by penalty.The front four totaled 21 tackles, including nine for losses."We're just trying to be great," said tackle Davon Godchaux, who had six tackles. That's a total Suh reached only once last year.When asked if the Dolphins miss Suh, Godchaux responded with laughter."Y'all are going to give me a trick question," he chortled as he walked away.Following the offseason departure of Suh and several other star players, Gase said the locker room culture had improved. And he said the rotation system with the front four is working better than in his first two seasons.Godchaux shares time with tackles Jordan Phillips Womens Mike Nugent Jersey , Vincent Taylor and Akeem Spence."We're definitely buying into it," Godchaux said. "Everybody is a starter. We don't look at it as if a guy is a backup. We label all nine guys as starters."Better depth and shared snaps could help the Dolphins avoid a repeat of last year's collapse in the run defense. Over the final 10 weeks they allowed 127 yards per game rushing — and won only twice.There's already a difference in how fresh the front four looks. Gase notes a particular improvement in passing situations."That's the thing I love about when we get to third down," he said. "We've got four guys going out there that are ready to rush the passer."The top pass rushers are Cameron Wake, who is 36 but seems ageless, and veteran newcomer Robert Quinn. Between them they have seven Pro Bowl berths."The addition of Quinn is huge," Raiders coach Jon Gruden said. "He has given them supreme effort opposite Cameron Wake. And they have a very good unit inside that can generate pressure as well. It's a combination of new players, new energy and the scheme. It's fun to watch them. Unfortunately we've got a lot of work to do to get ready."Tell The Truth: Raiders can’t corral the Broncos At halftime on the road the Oakland Raiders were giving the Denver Broncos all they could handle. Coming out of the break there was a completely different story. The Raiders were able to keep pace early but eventually fell victim to the stampede. Making history and breaking rules Derek Carr rebounded from a shabby game with an NFL-record setting performance completing 29 of 32 passes for a 90.2% completion rating (NFL record for minimum 30 attempts in a game) for 288 yards and one touchdown. It’s long been the case that when Seth Roberts caught a touchdown pass the Raiders have won. They were 10-0 in games Roberts caught a TD pass. That streak ended Sunday. With 5:31 seconds remaining in the third quarter Roberts gave the Raiders a 19-7 lead and its last score. But the comeback made by the Broncos defense to shutdown the Raiders conservative offense and the offense would score just enough to win.Why was the defense exhausted down the stretch?A lot of people seem content to attribute the Raiders lack of being able to close games out to running out of gas. This is ultra concerning to me and a budding source of anger for head coach Jon Gruden. His defense being too tired to do their jobs with the game on the line is inexcusable. The Raiders defense was on the field for a total of 9:28 seconds in the first half against the Broncos and 8:29 seconds against the LA Rams. In the third quarter the Raiders were on the field for 8:24 seconds against the Broncos and 11:02 seconds, hardly enough time to allow them to be as spent as they were. In the 4th and final quarter the Broncos had the football for nine minutes and the Rams had it for 8:58 seconds.So if we add the numbers and subtract the excuses from controlled explanations we arrive at this conclusion. The Raiders defense had been on the field for 17:57 seconds out of 45 minutes headed into the fourth quarter against the Broncos. They ultimately went down to the last seconds of the game and couldn’t maintain the lead when they were well-rested.What the hell is going on? Is it a lack of reps in the preseason? The starters didn’t play long during the preseason if at all around the league and the result has been sloppy football all around. There really was no reason aside from the elevation getting to the Raiders as to why they were dead-dog tired when they had barely been on the field.A pass can be granted to those who were getting play time fresh from their couches. But not from the captains.Checking off the keys to victory1. Derek Carr must re-master himself: YepThe record setting performance was a sight to behold in itself. Carr was on fire and moving the offense at will until they hit the redzone.The best thing I saw from Carr was this incredible heater dropped off to Seth Roberts. After seeing this and the totality of his performance it leads one to believe that Carr is regaining his composure and will be fine.2. Getting Pressure: NopeMaurice Hurst got one sack on Case Keenum and that was with the aid of a bad shotgun snap. There were only 4 hits in the quarterback in total, on a more positive note it’s the rookies who have been getting to the quarterback. Hurst recorded the sack and Arden Key recorded two hits on the qb. Sadly once the Broncos went to max protect the pass rush ceased and Keenum was able to lead his team to victory.3. Block Von Miller: YepTruth be told, with the exception of the strip sack of Carr which was overturned because of a defensive holding call, Tom Cable and the offensive line did a fantastic job of neutralizing not only Miller but Bradley Chubb as well. Throughout the offseason fans have been hard on rookie Kolton Miller, but he hasn’t been mentioned hardly at all during games which is an excellent sign that he is doing his job well. 4. Establishing the run: IncompleteThe Raiders used the running game to complement the pass. Marshawn Lynch scored again for the second week in a row got the Raiders on the board first. Raider fans need to understand something about this rushing attack. Lynch is a power back, I have nothing but love and respect for his game and what he has accomplished Youth Seth Roberts Jersey , but I have to point out an observation. Lynch is fine running downhill, but at the ripe old age of 32, Father Time has come for some of his gifts back. What has been put on tape is Lynch’s limited secondary burst. Compare when Lynch hits the hole and continues versus when going to the stutter step, stopping, and/or attempting to change directions. You will quickly find out when he stops his feet for either reason he is far less likely to evade the defender without going thru him. The Raiders offensive line and Lynch are still trying to find their rhythm. They have collaborated on some beautiful displays of power in bulldozing Lynch into the endzone and across first down markers. They have also opened up some holes which need to be utilized. It’s going to take some time because like many teams around the league the starters didn’t play much together. But and this is a major issue which needs addressing, when the Raiders need to run the football they can not. In short yardage situations they get stuffed, when attempting to run out the clock they can’t keep the chains moving. It was a contributing factor to the loss against the Broncos. With a couple more first downs they could have ended the game emerging victorious and holding back the Broncos.5. Raiders don’t beat themselves: YepIn terms of penalties the Raiders had a much better and a much cleaner game in terms of penalties. This was a major improvement for them as they were shooting themselves in the foot previous week against the Rams.Final thoughtsAnother winnable game slipped through the fingers of the Raiders as a blocked extra point was the margin for the Broncos victory. Carr was sensational but not perfect, while both he and Amari Cooper appeared to be much more in sync, Carr missed an opportunity to get Cooper his first TD of the season instead of opting for a field goal. The Raiders are going to need to solve their “conditioning” issue on defense in order to preserve leads and victories. Once again the Raiders dominated nearly all of the stats except for points. There were many more good signs than bad, and it is a matter of time before they get their first win of the season. With Miami and Cleveland coming up in weeks three and four respectively they can get back to .500 early and re-enter the hunt for the AFC West.

Old School and RuneScape 3 are exceedingly similar in who's’s a similar melodies

“Old School and RuneScape 3 are exceedingly similar in who's’s a similar melodies, the exact same core there, but it really’s different production values, however it really’s the same way of composition and yes it’s exactly the same emotions also, however it’s just treated differently, one’s got an orchestra, one other includes RuneScape Gold a list of general MIDI sounds playing it, without having composition is far more valid than additional, both have their very own merits, and then we love returning and dusting over previous general MIDI stuff,” said Lord.
“We complete a lots of reworks through the years as well, making the oldest stuff looking to go, style of half-way-house, everytime while utilizing the tech we’ve got within the market to us to hopefully try to create it sound better. Talking earlier with regards to the intricacies of writing by having an orchestra, well we’ve aimed to perform that. If you’ve got 16 tracks using the general MIDI then RuneScape Mobile Gold that’s it, that’s all you’ve got. Personally, I’d have loved to obtain put parts A, B, C, D, for your strings, however, you couldn’t practice it if you do not cut other sorts of pieces out, and every one of us try to travel as far even while can as well as it, and obviously the supreme the place you’ve got like, 80 players,” added Taylor.

We’ll be trying to get several guests on tonight’s show to talk about Thursday’s NFL kickoff game and the Falcons’ season outlook. Topics will include match-ups to watch against the Eagles, our predictions for the game, and much, much more.Here’s the podcast version of the show, enjoy:As always, we’ll also be taking your questions throughout the show.

If you have comments, we’d love to hear them. Send them to us on Twitter (@FalcoholicLive), leave them below, or e-mail us at falcoholiclive@gmail.com.Thanks for watching!Is Atlanta Falcons pass rusher Vic Beasley broken, or was he never elite? It feels like only yesterday I was gaga (scouting term) over Vic Beasley. Coming out of Clemson, Beasley had perhaps one of the best first steps to come into the NFL draft in years. The first step is huge. Find me a consistently elite pass rusher, and I can probably show you a guy with an elite first step. The Elite First StepHaving grown up on Atlanta Falcons, I can tell you a guy like John Abraham had a truly impressive first step. Jamaal Anderson was always a step behind. That first step can get the rusher ahead of the tackle. It is far from the only move needed to become an elite pass rusher, but that quick first step, a la Dwight Freeney Authentic Julio Jones Jersey , is not coachable. If you’re slow off the snap, you probably aren’t destined for greatness.Beasley has that first step. His athleticism has never been in question: Beasley “blows the doors off” the NFL combine not too long ago in 2015. He wasn’t a workout warrior either, finishing his last season at Clemson with 11 sacks. The makings were all there for someone great. Dan Quinn had loads of success coaching up defensive linemen. It proved out when Beasley notched a league-high 15.5 sacks in his sophomore season.Outside of then? Vic Beasley is a ghost. Where is 2016 Vic Beasley?Beasley has been criticized by relying too much on his speed, and in his fourth season he still lacks any other pass rush moves. He got a fair share of pass rushes against Chris Clark, a poor tackle that was previously unemployed before Tuesday. Despite receiving no help on many snaps, Beasley struggled to do anything. That should not happen.It’s not really clear what happened with Beasley.It’s like he’s regressed. He lacks not only the pass rush moves, but the killer instinct we see in his counterpart. Takkarist McKinley totaled 8 sacks in his rookie season, including the playoffs. Beasley? 6. In two games in 2018, Takk has 2, and Beasley has 0. That’s a bad look when McKinley is four years younger, and typically lined up next to the defensive tackles that aren’t Grady Jarrett.Atlanta’s Top Pass Rusher is TakkFor a lack of a better or clearer description, McKinley plays angry. We saw that attitude against the Panthers when a small skirmish broke out between teams: McKinley jumped in ready to back up his teammates. When the team desperately needs to get to the quarterback, McKinley is way more likely to be there. It’s disappointing for a 2016 Pro Bowl, All Pro, and NFL sack leader. He finished 2016 with 0 sacks in his last four games, including the playoffs and the Super Bowl. I can’t believe it’s come to this, but Brooks Reed needs to see more snaps.Beasley’s FutureIt’s not clear what is in store for Beasley. Quinn suggested a return to defensive end would improve his numbers. That didn’t come to fruition in week 1 Authentic Deion Jones Jersey , and we saw Beasley dropping into coverage a lot in week 2 after the Deion Jones injury. The Falcons desperately need Beasley to step up, but so far we haven’t seen it. Beasley is on the last year of his rookie contract, taking up only $4.6 million in cap space. The problem is 2019’s fifth-year option exercised earlier this year. The fifth-year option was the right move in April, but the early returns during the season must have the front office rethinking the option. Beasley is set to earn a base salary of $12.8 million. There’s no signing bonus or other way to hide or spread out the cap hit. He is slated to be the fourth most expensive player on the roster, after Matt Ryan, Desmond Trufant, and Julio Jones.The fifth-year option is guaranteed only for injury, so it is entirely possible the Falcons rescind the option in the offseason to save on cap space. Atlanta may consider trying to sign him to a more team-friendly deal, but it may make more sense to add pass rushers in the draft. With players like Deion Jones, Keanu Neal, Austin Hooper, and De’Vondre Campbell more deserving of big deals, the Falcons may move on from Beasley entirely in favor of younger, better, and cheaper.It is a little premature to suggest that, but there is no question that Beasley has fallen off hard since his 2016 season.

do you know? Our family

do you know? Our family has the thinnest, the most loved crying, the most hardworking, and the most stinky.Of course, the thinnest is of course me! I don't know how, how to eat, and not to eat fat, every time I go home to eat a large bowl of rice and meat, after a month is still the same, it is really annoying. The most loved cry, of course, my sister! why? Because she is crying at the same time, it seems like "Miss King". I don't think she loves to cry when she is "Mr. Once, my mother married her sister and said to her: "Why do you want to take the other people's stools off the kindergarten again? The others who are hurting are sitting on the ground?" The younger sister couldn't answer Newport 100 Cigarettes, and he felt very wronged, so he lost his voice. Cry. My mother saw her crying again, and she was very annoyed. She said that she cried two sentences, but she also loved crying too! The hardest thing is of course the mother. She is very hardworking and has to do at least eight things in one day. Five of them are the most satisfying and happiest. The most stinky, of course, is my dad. If he is in a bad mood, he will go out to play cards, drink alcohol, and then come back to the whole body, stinking and stinking, and I can't sleep peacefully. A week ago, the teacher told us a good news. I will go to Fengze Garden next Tuesday. Although I have been there many times, I am happy to hear this good news. flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, a week has passed. Today is Tuesday. It��s really a day to go to Fengze Garden. The whole class is very happy and full of expectations. I came to the school early in the morning, and the classmates were discussing it with great enthusiasm.sat in the car and arrived at Fengze Garden in 20 minutes. As early as the roadside, we saw three big characters made of grass and various plants: Fengze Garden. As soon as I entered the Fengze Garden, the scenery made us shine. A large blue lake immediately caught my eye. The lake was still popping up from time to time. There is also a large wooden boat on the lake Cigarette Kinds. The structure is extremely exquisite and beautiful, which makes us feel like walking in and going to rest. we walked into the vegetable garden. Wow! The students made amazing sounds. The original "red line" hangs from the ceiling, just like a curtain, it looks great! The guide sister saw our doubtful expression and immediately explained to us: "This is a plant cultivated in the air. These hanging red lines are the roots of the plants. They can also be used as 'hanging curtains' when hanging down, so Its other name is 'a curtain of dreams'." Wow! The classmates continued to make amazement, and they were all "study" and quickly took notes. came to Baiguayuan, and I heard its name. I knew that there must be a lot of melons here! After entering the inside Cheap Marlboro Free Shipping, we all looked at these melons with big eyes and amazed. Incense burner melon, crown pumpkin, small waist gourd, long-handled gourd, crane head gourd... all kinds of melons make us dazzled, and the one I am most impressed is a "cherry pumpkin", this kind of melon is smaller than small tomatoes. It's still small, the yellow-black stripes make it even smaller Cheapest Online Cigarettes Free Shipping, but unfortunately, this can't be eaten, otherwise it has already been promoted to the market.f the Baigua Park, we have visited the Science and Technology Innovation Demonstration Zone Discount Newport Cigarettes. The variety here is more abundant than the Baigua Garden. Many plants have not even heard of it. It seems that the current technology is so developed that it is in the same sentence: there is nothing you can't see, only you can't think of it. Here are: colorful peppers, strawberry spider orchids, silver leaf daisy, earth ginseng, light root trees... However, among so many plants, I am most impressed by tomato trees. Everyone should know that tomatoes are grown in the soil. But now it has grown into a tree, it��s amazing!

"Modesty makes people

"Modesty makes people progress, pride makes people fall behind" is a common saying we often say. In life Marlboro Red 100S Carton Price, modesty makes people progress is inevitable, there are always too many people, self-righteously think that they have reached saturation, no need to progress, In the end, I can only stay in place and be caught by those behind me Cigarettes Free Shipping. Leave a gap for yourself and leave some room for development. In this way, we can continue to make progress.e famous painter Qi Baishi once saw that his disciple had a good painting and borrowed it from his disciples. His disciples were very surprised Cartons Of Newports. Qi Baishi said: "Although I am your teacher, you are not necessarily better than I am poor." After his disciples listened, he respected the modest attitude of the teacher.the "teacher said", "disciples do not have to be good at the teacher", anyone has advantages and disadvantages, even if it is a great man, there are inevitable shortcomings, just like Qi Baishi Cheap Smokes Free Shipping, he does not feel because he is a famous painter. Supremely superior, they are not complacent. On the contrary, instead of copying his disciples' paintings, Qi Baishi's love for painting and his modest learning attitude are precisely the attitude of leaving a gap for himself. Qi Baishi's paintings will be people. It has been rumored to this day.the Long March of the Red Army, Zhu De wrote a poem to praise the spirit of the Red Army not afraid of hard work Newport 100 Cigarettes. After Chairman Mao saw it, he pointed out several inadequacies in the poem. After listening to Zhu De, he humbly asked Chairman Mao and hoped that he could help to amend it.

Taking the strengths of others to make up for their own shortcomings, isn��t it just leaving a gap for yourself? In each learning process, I will leave room for improvement. Over time, I will have more progress.odesty makes people progress, we have to leave a gap for ourselves and leave some room for progress.

Falcons vs. Panthers: Hat Tips & Head-Scratchers

The Atlanta Falcons enter Week 3 of the NFL season at 1-1 Atlanta Falcons T-Shirt , and now look forward to a matchup against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. But before we completely commit our focus to this week’s game, it’s imperative to take a glance at the good — and the not so good — from the victory over the Carolina Panthers. Here are your Hat Tips & Head-Scratchers for Week 2. Hat Tips Calvin Ridley’s first career touchdown The rookie wide receiver formally introduced himself to the NFL as a red zone threat, hauling in his first career touchdown pass at a pivotal spot in the game. Ridley was lauded for his route running wizardry coming out of college, and he used hesitation and shifty footwork at the line of scrimmage to gain inside leverage on Donte Jackson on the slant.The result was six points and a tie ballgame, and a tip o’ the hat from the Falcoholic. Matt Ryan goes Beastmode Channeling his inner Sage Rosenfels (sans full helicopter fumble), quarterback Matt Ryan went airborne into the end zone after an 8-yard scramble, pushing the lead to two touchdowns in the fourth quarter. Ryan had Austin Hooper wide open for the first down, but no, Matt Ryan backs down from no such challenge. By sheer force of will or insanity, Ryan escaped three Panthers defenders for the leaping score. It was his second rushing touchdown of the game, and Matt Ryan showed no concern for life or limb on his quest to cross the plane. Well done Atlanta Falcons Hats , good sir. Ricardo Allen’s fourth quarter pick The victory dance may have started a bit early with this one, but Ricardo Allen snaring Cam Newton’s pass off the hands of C.J. Anderson put the Falcons in prime position to win it. Allen is an integral piece of this defense, and he made the play the defense needed when it mattered most.Head-Scratchers Damontae Kazee’s late hit on Cam Newton We learned yesterday that safety Damontae Kazee may escape a suspension for his late hit on Cam Newton, but that does not mean he will escape our ire. Kazee’s head-to-head hit may not have been intentional, but it was dangerous — for Newton and himself — and foolish. Already entering the Carolina game with a ramshackle defense, Damontae Kazee’s ejection left the Falcons with few options to replace him on the field effectively. If Kazee hopes to have a positive impact on this defense he has to properly control his aggression and know when to let off the gas. 12-Gauge on 3rd-and-1Dare I say Steve Sarkisian had his best game as a playcaller since he joined the Atlanta Falcons, but this was an odd one. But! Blame for its failure can also be placed on Mohamed Sanu. With the offense facing a third-and-1 deep in Carolina territory on its opening possession, Sark rolled out the wildcat — err, 12-Gauge — formation. Sanu took the direct snap, and faked the hand-off to Tevin Coleman before ambling to his left and being taken down for the loss. Coleman appeared to have an open running lane to convert the third down. Weird call, weird execution. Other than this play Atlanta Falcons Hoodie , however, Steve Sarkisian called a terrific game.Matt Ryan’s knee brace, Matt Schaub’s handsCan Matt Ryan get this thing fixed already? That’s twice in two weeks where Ryan has encountered an issue with his knee brace after a slide, but in Sunday’s game it took him off the field for one play. Enter backup wunderkind Matt Schaub. Schaub promptly fumbled the snap and thankfully recovered it, but it led to a loss of 8 yards and effectively killed the drive. Get the damn knee brace fixed or practice your slide, Mr. Ryan. Possibly both. Patrick Mahomes loves ketchup.There were a lot of interesting tidbits about the Kansas City Chiefs’ breakout star in a profile of Mahomes from ESPN’s Seth Wickersham. But the quarterback’s affinity for ketchup was the real golden nugget of the piece:Apparently it goes beyond steaks too. He even told Yahoo Sports’ Terez Paylor after practice Thursday that he puts it on his macaroni and cheese. Uh ... yikes.The good news for Mahomes is that he has a chance at lots and lots of ketchup:OK, that’s fun. But we have questions. A lot of them:1. Why?2. How much would Heinz on your steak for life even cost? Can’t be much.3. Even if he has two steaks a week, a $3 bottle of ketchup should last a month or so, right?4. So is this even that great of a deal?5. Does he just get a case per year in perpetuity?6. What if Heinz isn’t even his favorite kind of ketchup?7. What if it only takes a couple years before he’s begging Heinz to stop sending ketchup?8. If Mahomes is seen pouring ketchup on his fries, will Heinz say “HEY WAIT, that’s only for steak!”?9. If Mahomes puts ketchup on steaks and macaroni Youth Customized Atlanta Falcons Jerseys , is there anything he won’t put it on?10. What if he drenches the whole steak in ketchup?11. What if he full on marinates it in ketchup?12. Is it only regular ketchup, or do alternates apply (e.g. spicy, sweetened with honey, etc)?13. Does he have to ring a bell when he’s about to eat steak?14. Does it have to be Mahomes, or can any QB claim the prize from Heinz if they throw for 57 TDs?15. Not related to Mahomes, but seriously what the hell is Mayochup, and dear God why?16. Should the Chiefs in their next Color Rush game switch their uniform color to Ketchup Red?17. When LaDainian Tomlinson set a record with 31 touchdowns in 2006, why didn’t he get Baskin Robbins for life?18. Mahomes is pacing for 49.6 touchdowns. Would the motivation for ketchup actually make him try to pick up the pace?19. Does Heinz fully appreciate how many damn touchdowns they’re asking for?20. Heinz says his two rushing touchdowns don’t count. WHY DON’T HIS RUSHING TOUCHDOWNS COUNT?21. If Mahomes breaks the single-season touchdown record (55), will he even care about free ketchup?22. Will Andy Reid pay for Mahomes’ ketchup if he rests the starters in Week 17 and doesn’t let Mahomes throw touchdown passes?23. Will Mahomes let Reid have some ketchup if he doesn’t rest him?24. Reid definitely loves ketchup, huh?25. Can Mahomes’ family or relatives or future children eat this ketchup?26. What if his pets want to put steak on their ketchup?27. Are these the squeeze bottles of ketchup or the glass ones?28. Can they not be the glass ones? Those suck and take a lot of effort.29. Actually, the glass bottles could injure our sweet QBs arms. Squeeze bottles or else.30. If these are given out in small packets I’m gonna be so pissed. It can’t be those www.falconsauthorizedshops.com , right?31. Why is ketchup packaged in such inconvenient forms?32. Hasn’t he been in Kansas City long enough to have learned about barbecue sauce or something by now? 33. If Mahomes runs out of ketchup, can he just go into any grocery store and demand free Heinz by showing his ID?34. Will there be a black market for Patrick Mahomes IDs if that’s the case? 35. Do you pronounce it to-MAY-to or to-MAH-to?36. Why did the product change from catsup to ketchup?37. Shouldn’t Mahomes get something from Heinz anyway, after throwing for six touchdowns at Heinz Field in Week 2?38. Is Ben Roethlisberger pissed they never offered him ketchup after all these years at Heinz Field?39. Are the Steelers going to try to steal Mahomes’ ketchup?40. What if copious amounts of ketchup are the reason Mahomes sounds like Kermit the Frog?41. Will the Chiefs allow Heinz to do this because it can’t be healthy?42. Does Mahomes know that you can tap the “57” on the glass bottle to get the ketchup out of the bottle faster?43. Why do tomatoes taste so bad, but ketchup tastes so good?44. Ketchup is red. The Chiefs wear red jerseys. Maybe they should partner?45. Wait I just realized Mahomes can eat the ketchup(ed) steak and not worry about stains!46.Is putting ketchup on steak a millennial thing? Do older people do it too? 47. Did Mahomes’ receivers lose respect over this ketchup thing? 48. Does Mahomes eat the ketchup-laced steak pregame?49. Does this hurt his diet?50. Is Heinz secretly investing in the cardiovascular downfall of Kansas City’s QB?51. Are the Patriots behind this?52. They are, aren’t they? 53. Tom Brady doesn’t eat ketchup, does he?54. Is this now called KetchupGate?55. Where is Mahomes going to store all of this ketchup?56. Is Mahomes now forced to date ketchup-lovers?57. Actually, maybe he should find someone who loves him enough to tell him to stop eating steak with ketchup?

Falcons vs Bengals: Can the offense continue to dominate?

With a 1-2 record Youth Keanu Neal Jersey , the Falcons are now in a situation where the margin for error is getting perilously thin. The injuries to the defense have been significant, though the offense has not been immune. However, this unit has weathered the storm fairly well so far, scoring over 30 points in the last two games in spite of the injuries. Here’s how the offense matches up with the Bengals defense.Note: Assessments based off of PFF scoringIn the trenchesThe Falcons offensive line has had ups and downs this year, but is still a solid unit overall. Alex Mack and Jake Matthews are the anchors of this unit. Ryan Schraeder hasn’t been as good as in previous years but is still solid. On the interior, losing Andy Levitre has hurt, but Wes Schweitzer has filled in decently for him. He’s not great, but he’s not nearly as bad as he was at RG last year, and he did have an excellent game against the Panthers. Brandon Fusco has been solid at right guard as well. This unit has faced some fierce competition the last couple of weeks, so there’s reason to believe they will settle in and help this offense stay on track.The Bengals have some good players on their defensive line. Geno Atkins is still one of the best defensive tackles in the league and could be a problem for the Falcons line up the middle. Second year tackle Andrew Billings is off to a good start this year as well. Carlos Dunlap is a good player who has consistently played at a high level through his career. Jordan Willis looked really good as a rookie, but has been quiet so far in 2018. DT Ryan Glasgow can also do a great job of shutting down the run. Carl Lawson also offers them some pass rushing prowess on the end.This is a closer match-up than it may seem. I don’t expect either unit to dominate, but each will get their shots. Advantage: PushThe skill positionsThe Falcons offense has bounced back considerably since their week one debacle. Matt Ryan now has 897 yards with 7 TDs (plus 2 rushing!) and only 2 INTs for a passer rating of 106.5. Julio Jones had a “quiet” week against the Saints, only amassing 96 yards. However, his presence on the field opened up opportunities for Calvin Ridley, who went off for 7 catches for 146 yards and 3 TDs. The youngster looks like the real deal. Mohamed Sanu has been quiet so far this year, but he’s been reliable and is always a solid option if Julio and Ridley are covered. Austin Hooper has been good this year and looks like he’s finally growing into that receiving tight end role. The running backs have looked great Authentic Julio Jones Jersey , with Tevin Coleman and Ito Smith filling in admirably with Devonta Freeman on the mend. This is an incredibly talented and dangerous unit.The Bengals linebacking corps could be the big weakness for this defensive unit. In the middle, Hardy Nickerson has struggled against the run and the pass. Jordan Evans is good against the run but a liability in coverage. Nick Vigil is the best of this unit and is mostly average against both the run and pass. It’s clear they’re missing Vontaze Burfict. The safeties for Cincinatti are not bad. Shawn Williams is not having his best year but has shown to be capable in the past. Rookie second rounder Jessie Bates has looked good at free safety so far. Second year corner William Jackson looked great last year and has played mostly well so far in 2018. Dre Kirkpatrick has been solid but not spectacular, which is the definition of his career so far. In nickel sets, Darqueze Dennard is not off to a great start and could be someone the Falcons look to target if he gets matched up one-on-one with Calvin Ridley.The Bengals have some issues in this part of the defense and this is a match-up that strongly favors the Falcons. Advantage: FalconsOverallThe best hope for the Bengals will be to pressure Matt Ryan early and often. If they don’t, there’s no reason to think the Falcons rejuvenated offense can’t put points on the board against this unit. This defensive line is good, but isn’t considerably better than what the team has faced the past two games. Advantage: FalconsNFL trade deadline: Could the Falcons make a move if the season continues spiraling? With the Falcons at 1-4 and basically looking at every game on the schedule in the foreseeable future as “must win,” the buzzing around the Falcons beehive wonders if the trade deadline might come into play.Historically, the Falcons are mum around this time of year, even when they’re fielding a clear playoff team that might be a piece away from being perfect.Whether it’s just GM Thomas Dimitroff’s general desire not to trade players in-season or just a routine of not being interested when the moment strikes, it’s been radio silence during the trade season of mid-October to early November traditionally for the Birds. They’ve not had a season like this since 2014, where the wheels are falling off and the train heads nowhere fast, so one wonders in a more trade-happy NFL if the team could want to move anyone before the Oct. 30 deadline approaches. RB Tevin Coleman The first name that pops up would, of course, be RB Tevin Coleman, who has an expiring contract in March and who doesn’t appear to be destined to stick around with Devonta Freeman in the early parts of an extension and Ito Smith looking like a more-than-worthy successor. There seems to be a rash of injuries spreading around the league right now at the running back position, and any playoff team would no doubt love to have Coleman on a rental basis. Though Matt Ryan Jersey , this one feels unlikely, if only because we still have no idea if the Falcons aren’t secretly wanting to figure out a way to keep Coleman around. Freeman’s health hasn’t been sterling in the time since his extension. That’s not to say it’ll stay that way, but it is something that makes you wonder what happens with the guaranteed money runs out on his extension. Do you really want to let Coleman walk and then have to release Freeman a year or two later because he’s struggled to stay on the field? If Free can’t get healthy, they’re reliant on Ito Smith and Brian Hill to get the job done. Right now, it’d probably take a second or third rounder for Atlanta to even consider trading Coleman. They’re guaranteed at least a fourth in compensation if he walks, and they might want to see how Freeman’s 2018 progresses health-wise before they let him out the door for good. This feels highly unlikely unless a desperate team blows Atlanta away with an offer. DE Vic Beasley This is where things get interesting. It’s no secret that Vic Beasley isn’t having the best 2018, and that’s being said after an underwhelming 2017. We don’t know exactly what’s going on with Beasley right now, but he’s not getting consistent pressures or hits on the quarterbacksand his sack tally isn’t good enough for someone of his potential and past numbers. The Falcons have a huge decision to make on Beasley’s fifth-year option. He’s due to make $12.8 million in 2019, and though I’m a Beasley fan and defender, the team just can’t pay that for what Beasley is doing at the moment. He’s invisible for roughly half the game, and really only gets four or five snaps an outing where he really looks like he’s close to making a play. That’s obviously not good enough, and really not good enough for one of the biggest cap hits on the team. You hope he can figure it out and that he can get back to being the Beasley of old, but there is no doubt a probable playoff team out there (cough Los Angeles, Kansas City, New England, etc. cough) who could use some help off the edge. As my colleague Matt Chambers noted http://www.authenticsatlantafalcons.com/cheap-matt-bosher-jersey , teams could get a look at what Beasley’s capable of through a half-season and playoffs and see if they want to kick in that fifth-year option. If not, they could release Beasley and he, no doubt, would find a new team to latch onto, being the 2016 sack leader and all and still having sky-high potential. The Falcons could get that cap space back for the future with the deals they have coming up and could maybe get a third or fourth rounder in return. Any Others? A pass-rush needy team could see if a fifth or sixth rounder would be enough to snag DE Brooks Reed, though he’s right now the second-best pass rusher on the roster. DE Derrick Shelby feels more likely, as he’s on an expiring deal and is probably in his last year here. He could help someone in run support for certain. Soon-to-be free agent WR Justin Hardy could help a team that’s lacking at receiver (the Tennessee Titans immediately come to mind, as old Falcons QBs coach Matt LaFleur is their OC now). Though, the team standing pat on trading TE Tony Gonzalez all those years ago to a contender after the 2013 season went haywire makes me wonder if that’s just not a future Dimitroff wants to see. It sends a message to the locker room when you trade a starter or valuable rotational piece mid-season, and not a good one at that. One wonders if Atlanta will just choose to roll with what they’ve got through December (or, heck, maybe January if things really do get weird), even if someone comes calling.

It turns out where there’s smoke

there’s fire.ESPN’s Adam Schefter is reporting that the Detroit Lions have traded Golden Tate to the Philadelphia Eagles http://www.lionscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-sylvester-williams-jersey for a third-round pick. Tate has already responded to the trade, essentially confirming the move.This is a shocking move for the Lions seeing as Tate has been an absolutely essential part of the offense since the team acquired him five years ago. In 71 games, Tate had 416 catches, 4741 yards and 22 touchdowns, including four straight seasons with 90+ catches and three seasons with at least 1,000 yards.The Lions will have to drastically change their outlook of their offense without Tate. Hopefully the rise of a running game and Kerryon Johnson will help, along with the emergence of Kenny Golladay as a receiver. The Lions will also have to promote either Brandon Powell or TJ Jones to a bigger role with the offense—the two have combined for just three catches on the year. We all know that Detroit Lions cornerback has confidence in spades Cheap Taylor Decker Jersey , but he may have just outdone himself this week. It’s one thing to play with the kind of swagger he does and challenge quarterbacks to come at him. It’s another to ask a quarterback to sign the ball of their first interceptions ever thrown.But that’s exactly what Slay did in this phenomenal NFL Films profile of him that dropped this week:“His first pick, I wish he could sign my ball, he put his name on that,” Slay told Charissa Thompson. Not only was the pick Carson Wentz’s first career interception of his young rookie season, it also sealed the win for the Detroit Lions over the then-undefeated Philadelphia Eagles and pushed the Lions to 2-3. Detroit would end up making the playoffs at 9-7, while the Eagles were on the outside looking in at 7-9. But would Wentz sign the ball that marks the first big blemish of his career? “Why wouldn’t he?” Slay said bluntly. That kind of confidence is what makes Slay such a likeable player in Detroit. But here’s the best part: This may actually happen. Slay’s former teammate Haloti Ngata, who just so happens to play alongside Wentz now in Philadelphia Sam Martin Jersey , reached out to Slay via Twitter and told him he’ll get it done:If this actually comes together, it will be a new high point for Slay. Getting a quarterback to sign the ball from their first career interception—and a game-losing interception, no less—is just another assertion of Slay’s dominance around the league. Never change, Slay.
