Jackson for the leadership hes provided Antworten

ORCHARD PARK, N. NMD Fake .Y. -- Running back Fred Jackson immediately waved off the Buffalo Bills training staff once the cart pulled up along the sideline. "Yeah, I knew it was out there," Jackson recalled Monday. "And I knew I didnt need it." Sore as his sprained left knee felt a day earlier, Jackson had no intention of being carted off during a game at Miami for the second time in two years. Rather than climb aboard, Jackson grabbed his helmet and headed back on the field, where he proceeded to play a key role in a 23-21 win over the Dolphins. "Oh yeah, I was motivated," said Jackson, still stung by the memory of breaking his right leg at Miami in November 2011. "That was something that ran through my mind yesterday. And I wanted to be out there." Wearing a brace hes had on since first hurting his knee three weeks ago, Jackson persevered in producing a gutty performance that continued to solidify his position as the Bills vocal and inspirational leader. He scored on a 3-yard run in the first quarter after aggravating the injury a series earlier, when teammate Scott Chandler rolled into the side of Jacksons knee on the sideline. And he was still at it in the final minutes. Jackson gained 16 yards on three consecutive carries -- including a 10-yard run to convert a third-and-4 at the Dolphins 28 -- to set up Dan Carpenters game-winning 31-yard field goal with 33 seconds left. He finished with 36 yards rushing and 49 yards receiving in helping the Bills (3-4) snap a two-game skid and win a road game for the first time since Oct. 14, 2012, at Arizona. And dont be surprised to see Jackson playing this Sunday at New Orleans (5-1). "Its definitely sore today," Jackson said. "But I expect to be out there. Ill do everything I can." His teammates would expect nothing less from the seven-year veteran. "Hes got a lot of heart. Hes one of those guys whos a natural leader," guard Kraig Urbik said. "When we need a little pick up or need a little extra, hes always the guy to provide it. Hes one of those guys that we always rally behind." Jacksons resilience is beginning to reflect the identity of a young team that has shown no signs of quit this season despite a series of injuries to key regulars -- including rookie quarterback EJ Manuel (sprained right knee). Buffalos three wins have been determined by a combined 6 points, and four losses determined by a combined 25. And the Bills have either led or been within a score of the lead in all seven games. Thats well ahead of the modest expectations that came with a team that underwent a near top-to-bottom overhaul this off-season and hasnt been to the playoffs in 13 seasons -- the NFLs longest active drought. "Im extremely proud," rookie coach Doug Marrone said. "Were fighting, fighting, fighting. And thats what were going to keep doing. ... Granted, were not happy with the record or where were at, but were working on changing that every single day." Marrone singled out Jackson for the leadership hes provided. "I think Fred is an outstanding pro, and he leads by example," Marrone said. "Theres a lot of youth in him which were very happy with." Youth is a relative term for Jackson. At 32, hes not sure how many more seasons hes got left, or how much longer his wobbly left knee can hold up this season. That leaves him focusing on short-term objectives, such as doing everything he can to turn the Bills into winners this season. "Weve got a great opportunity in front of us right now. And I want to be a part of it," Jackson said. "The confidence in this locker room is sky-high in here. We believe in ourselves. And theres nothing more powerful than a locker room that has confidence in itself." NOTES: Bills LB Manny Lawson (hamstring) is expected to be limited in returning to practice this week after he was hurt Sunday. ... Buffalo has allowed two TDs rushing this season, the teams fewest through seven games since allowing two in 1982, according to STATS LLC. ... The Bills and Broncos are the NFLs only two teams to have scored at least 20 points in each game this season. NMD Sale .A. Happs hold on a spot in the Blue Jays starting rotation is in question.

In mens doubles, Vancouvers Vasek Pospisil and American Jack Sock reached the quarter-finals with a 7-6 (3), 7-6 (3), 6-4 win over Croatian Mate Pavic and Andre Sa of Brazil. https://www.cheapnmdoutlet.com/ . LOUIS - Two-thirds of the St.JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Greg Olsons experience calling plays and his history mentoring young quarterbacks stood out to Jacksonville Jaguars coach Gus Bradley.Thats why Bradley chose Olson as his offensive co-ordinator Wednesday.Hes a really, really good developmental coach, Bradley said following Senior Bowl practice in Mobile, Alabama. I think thats what impressed me. And he has a style and a conviction. I just thought he would be a great fit.Olson spent the past two seasons as Oaklands offensive co-ordinator. That followed a one-year stint as Jacksonvilles assistant head coach/quarterbacks coach — Coach Mike Mularkey, Olson and several other assistants were fired after a 2-14 season.Olson replaces Jedd Fisch, who was fired after two lacklustre seasons in which the Jaguars were ranked at or near the bottom of the NFL in nearly every offensive category.The Raiders werent much better under Olsons direction. Oakland ranked last in total offence this past season, finishing 32nd in rushing and 26th in passing. But rookie quarterback Derek Carr threw for 3,270 yards, with 21 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. The Raiders ranked 23rd in total offence in 2013.We dont get caught up in traditional numbers like that, Bradley said. Were looking at does the team get better? And the talent he has, do they progress? Do you see improvement?The Jaguars will lean on Olson to help develop first-round draft pick Blake Bortles, who threw 11 touchdowns and 17 interceptions as a rookie and was sacked 55 times.Olson also has threee other offensive co-ordinator stops in the NFL: Detroit (2005), St. NMD Replica. Louis (2006-07) and Tampa Bay (2009-11). Bradley and Olson worked together in 2008.His best season came with the Rams in 2006. St. Louis ranked sixth in the NFL in total offence and became the fourth team in league history to have a 4,000-yard passer (Marc Bulger), a 1,500-yard rusher (Steven Jackson) and two 1,000-yard receivers (Torry Holt and Isaac Bruce) in the same season.I remember him from my time in Atlanta when we played him in Tampa and what he did there with Josh Freeman and that young offence, Jaguars general manager Dave Caldwell said. They went 10-6 that year and did a really nice job. Kind of exceeded everybodys expectations and did a really nice job with a young quarterback so Ive known about Greg for a long time. I know Gus has worked with him and all the feedback that we get on him is extremely good.Olson joins former Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone as offensive changes heading into Bradleys third season. Bradley hired Marrone on Tuesday as assistant head coach and offensive line coach. He replaced George Yarno, who left the team last summer to undergo cancer treatment.For us, developing the young quarterback and just putting them in position to succeed, Caldwell said. You combine (Olson) with coach Marrone, and with those two guys working together, its a lot of experience coming into our room that we did not have previously.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
