The Green Bay Packers went into kickoff on Sunday with an interim head coach White Dexter Williams Jersey , three starting offensive linemen inactive, and playing an opponent that has dominated them over the past few years, albeit a team that is arguably even more disappointing than the Packers this season.For the first time since before the bye week, the Packers showed resilience in the face of adversity. A long opening drive by the Atlanta Falcons — ending in a touchdown to Julio Jones — put the Packers in an early hole. But the offense cleaned up the third-down issues that have been plaguing it all season, the defense figured out how to force some takeaways, and the Packers dominated the game for about 50 minutes en route to a 34-20 victory.For Philbin, who returned to Green Bay this year after several years away from the team Muhammad Wilkerson Jersey , it must have been exciting, and it certainly was a positive way to cap off an emotional week following Mike McCarthy’s firing.Here’s a look back at Sunday’s win.‘A lot of emotion’ in Packers’ victory for Philbin | Packers.comThe Packers overcame starting three backups on the offensive line to have one of their most complete performances of the year.Rookie cornerback Jaire Alexander rewards Packers for their trust | Packersnews.comMike Pettine tasked Alexander with covering Julio Jones all day, often one-on-one, and even though Jones crossed over the 100-yard mark with two scores, the rookie’s competitiveness and willingness to challenge the much bigger Jones at the line of scrimmage largely paid off.Bashaud Breeland finally gets chance to show his ‘true talent’ | Packers.comThe Packers hadn't forced a turnover in almost three games coming into Sunday, so to get two -- both from Breeland -- was a huge boost for the defense's confidence. Meanwhile, the team should start talking to Breeland right away to gauge his interest in a contract extension.Packers interim coach Joe Philbin jokes about losing two early challenges | Packers WireThat was a pretty good line from Philbin about getting his challenges out on the opening drive of the game: "I had enough big decisions to make during the course of the day DeShone Kizer Jersey , I didn't want to have to make any more. Plus the flag didn't fit very good in my pocket."Winston Moss says tweet was not aimed at Aaron Rodgers or team brass | ESPNMoss was on the FOX pregame show Sunday and tried to clarify what he meant in his tweet, saying that he was talking to the fans rather than anyone inside the organization. Still, he does not regret the comment at all, regardless of whether it played a role in his dismissal.These dolphins enjoy watching SpongeBob SquarePants—and it could be good for them | Science | AAASIt's in Science Magazine, so it's got to be legit. Even with a short turnaround to Thursday night’s game against the Green Bay Packers, the Seattle Seahawks are expecting to get some reinforcements back this week.Running back Chris Carson, right guard D.J. Fluker and strong safety Bradley McDougald all should be ready to play against the Packers.Head coach Pete Carroll said on Monday that Carson will be “healthy” this week after being held out of Sunday’s game with the Los Angeles Rams due to a hip injury. He was active the week prior against the Los Angeles Chargers only to be forced from the game in the second quarter as the injury tightened up on him. He was unable to practice last week and was ruled out as a game-time decision.“Chris is going to be healthy this week and he鈥檒l be excited to get back out there Antonio Morrison Jersey , too,” Carroll said.In Carson’s absence, the Seahawks still managed to rush for 273 yards against the Rams on Sunday. Rookie Rashaad Penny posted him first 100-yard game with 108 yards on 12 carries and Mike Davis added 58 yards on 11 carries. Russell Wilson also gained 92 yards on nine carries, most of which were scrambles.Fluker was also held out due to a calf injury that forced him to miss the final two offensive possessions of the Chargers game. He was also unable to practice last week. Jordan Simmons made the start at right guard in Fluker’s place against the Rams.“The projection is that D.J. will play in this game,” Carroll said. “We didn鈥檛 know if he would be able to get through that last game with the hopes of making a full showing this week so we鈥檙e counting on him. He should be out there on the field working with us today and all that.鈥滿cDougald split time with Delano Hill against the Rams, playing on 44 of the team’s 65 defensive snaps. He may have seen even fewer snaps if Hill hadn’t been slowed with a quadriceps injury in the game. McDougald had missed the second half of the Chargers game due to a knee injury.“He had a really good showing in the game and physically, he came out of it much better than he was the last couple of weeks so we鈥檙e very encouraged that he鈥檚 going to be okay for this week. He might have turned a corner a little bit in his rehab Jermaine Whitehead Jersey ,” Carroll said of McDougald.Linebacker K.J. Wright may not be as well off as the other three, however. Wright’s knee is continuing to be an issue and he had to defer to Barkevious Mingo for a significant portion of Sunday’s loss to the Rams.“K.J. wasn鈥檛 able to finish the game and we鈥檒l let you know in the next couple of days,” Carroll said of Wright. “If we were practicing today, he couldn鈥檛 practice so we鈥檒l let you know.”Mingo, Austin Calitro, Shaquem Griffin and Mychal Kendricks have all played in place of Wright this season as he missed the first six games while recovering from knee surgery. Kendricks is not available to the team until early December as he serves an eight-game suspension for pleading guilty to an inside trading charge in August. « MapleStory M: How to open automatic tasks and their functionsWOW Classic makes Azeroth feel dangerous again » Weitere Artikel der Kategorie Allgemein |
