sh Allen Josh Allen Lorenzo Alexander Jersey , the seventh overall choice in the 2018 NFL Draft, is set to make his first start of the preseason this week. The Buffalo Bills even took the time to announce him as the starter for the game, a first for the team during the 2018 preseason. The third week of the preseason typically is the one that showcases a team’s first-string more often than any other game, making it all the more intriguing that Allen is starting the all-important “dress rehearsal” game of the exhibition season. If you are a fantasy football player, the third week of the preseason is also when many fantasy drafts are held. Buffalo’s quarterback situation seemed to be radioactive to fantasy players, but with Allen potentially set to start, Bills fans may wish to go all-in on the team’s quarterback of the future.If you play in an ESPN fantasy league Authentic Kyle Williams Jersey , you may already have seen that Allen’s projected score for the season is pretty poor. The “Worldwide Leader” seems to assume that AJ McCarron will take the majority of the snaps at quarterback, with Allen mixing in at point. They project McCarron to score 158.8 fantasy points this season, and they have Allen projected to score 89.5; they do not say how many games each man will start. They give Nathan Peterman no love, assuming that he will score no points in 2018.If you were to total McCarron’s score and Allen’s score, you’d have 248.3 points, which would put Buffalo’s quarterback ahead of Sam Darnold, but behind Joe Flacco. That would be QB-30 http://www.buffalobillsteamonline.com/phillip-gaines-jersey , meaning that not only is Buffalo’s quarterback undraftable in ESPN’s estimation, but they are ultimately unrosterable, as well. For this exercise, fellow Bills fans, I only have two questions. First, will Allen go over or under the 89.5 points ESPN has projected him to score for the year? Second, will Allen go over or under the projected 248.3 points that ESPN is projecting Bills quarterbacks to combine on for the year? With that second part http://www.buffalobillsteamonline.com/stephen-hauschka-jersey , you’d obviously have to assume that he wins the starting job right out of the gate (or fairly early on in the season). Let us know what you think in the comments section. ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Bills have released receiver Terrelle Pryor two weeks after signing the eighth-year player.The move was announced Tuesday during the Bills' bye week.Pryor had just two catches on eight targets for 17 yards in two games. He became the odd man out after Robert Foster had 105 yards receiving in a 41-10 win over the New York Jets on Sunday, a day after the rookie was promoted off the practice squad. It's the second time Pryor has been cut this season. He had 14 catches for 235 yards and two touchdowns in six games with the Jets before reaching an injury settlement with the team after sustaining a groin injury.Pryor's departure leaves Buffalo with two openings on its roster after quarterback Nathan Peterman was cut on Monday. The Bills are 3-7, and off until hosting Jacksonville on Nov. 25.The Bills also signed cornerback Denzel Rice to their practice squad.

tball season http://www.dallascowboysteamonline.com/tyrone-crawford-jersey , all eyes turn towards the 2019 NFL Draft. Many of the players that are projected to go in round one have been talked about for months and months; the only question to where their talent will land come draft time. For others, however, the Senior Bowl provides a platform for some overlooked prospects to show NFL scouts what they can do when given the opportunity.The Cowboys are without their first-round draft pick, thanks to the move for Pro Bowl wideout Amari Cooper that helped the midseason turnaround, but there are some quality prospects at positions of need that Dallas can pluck in the later rounds. Prospects such as South Carolina’s Deebo Samuel and Delaware’s Nassir Adderly would be great fits for what the Cowboys would like to do, but there is little to no chance that either one of them slip into the range that Dallas is picking. So, here are a trio of prospects that participated in the Senior Bowl to keep your eye on in April.Penny Hart, WR, Georgia State PanthersJohn David Mercer-USA TODAY SportsOne of the biggest winners from the week in Mobile was a little-known receiver from Georgia State. Penny Hart, who weighed in at 5-foot-8 and 180 pounds with 8 7/8” hands at the beginning of the week, exploded onto the scene. Hart was a late addition to the event in Mobile, but you would have never guessed that had you not have known. BTB’s Connor Livesay wrote on the intriguing slot receiver that could be on the Cowboys’ radar.Hart’s big week has him climbing up draft boards and garnering a lot of hype. His unique combination of quickness, twitch Womens Brett Maher Jersey , and craftiness makes him an ideal prospect for a team looking for a receiver in the slot. Sounds like the Cowboys, doesn’t it? Livesay reports that Hart has met with the Cowboys “multiple times” already. With the uncertainty surrounding Cole Beasley's future in Dallas, Penny Hart is a prospect that the Cowboys need to consider taking with one of their day two selections. That would certainly make Dak Prescott happy.Dontavius Russell, IDL, Auburn TigersChristopher Hanewinckel-USA TODAY SportsThe Divisional Round loss to the Los Angeles Rams exposed the Cowboys’ weakness at the interior of the defensive line in a big, big way. C.J. Anderson ran all over the Dallas defense, and Todd Gurley capped things off with a 30-yard touchdown run that all but sealed the game. The need for another body at defensive tackle had been apparent all season long, but a loss like that on a national stage really emphasizes it.Enter Dontavius Russell. This year’s draft class is headlined by EDGE defenders and interior defensive lineman. Names such as Nick Bosa, Josh Allen, Quinnen Williams, and Jeffery Simmons stand out, but all of those prospects will be long gone before the Cowboys are scheduled to come on the clock at pick 58. With that said, the Cowboys can still target some interior defensive line help with the picks that they have available.Auburn’s Dontavius Russell is a big-bodied defensive tackle Authentic Travis Frederick Jersey , weighing in at 6-foot-3 and 318 pounds. The Draft Network’s Joe Marino believes that the Auburn product is a perfect fit in Dallas.Russell does not show much of anything as a pass rusher, but he is a big body in the middle that can help the Cowboys in that regard. Antwaun Woods had a good season, but the likely loss of David Irving means Dallas needs to find some more depth at that position. Dallas has not yet met with this defensive tackle, but Russell would be a player that the Cowboys can look at when assessing the need for help in the middle of the defensive line.Jacobi Meyers, WR, N.C. State WolfpackJeremy Brevard-USA TODAY SportsYes, the Cowboys now have Amari Cooper. Yes, Michael Gallup had a strong rookie season and appears to have a bright future in this league. However, there is still some uncertainty at the wide receivers position: when will the Cowboys re-sign or extend Cooper and is Cole Beasley going to be in Dallas next season? What happens with Terrance Williams, can Allen Hurns recover, and how will Cedrick Wilson look after a season on IR? With these questions, combined with the franchise’s loyalty to Dak Prescott, finding a wide receiver in this draft would be a pretty smart idea. We already addressed Penny Hart Authentic Leighton Vander Esch Jersey , an twitchy and quick slot that could add another dimension to this offense. Another option at wideout is NC State’s Jakobi Meyers.Meyers, a converted quarterback, had a big season in 2018: 92 receptions for 1,047 yards and four scores. That earned him an invite to a week in Mobile for the opportunity to showcase his abilities to scouts. He made the most of it:The Cowboys have met with the receiver and he appears to at least be on the team’s radar. Meyers’ impressive footwork and route-running ability makes him an intriguing fit in the Dallas offense.The one (nearly) unstoppable play for the Dallas Cowboys If you’re like me, you can’t get enough of watching the Cowboys’ perfectly executed 38-yard touchdown screen pass from Sunday’s 26-24 victory over the Detroit Lions. It’s truly a thing of beauty. The play combines so many strengths of the Cowboys offense:Ezekiel Elliott’s all-world open-field running ability.The athleticism of the Cowboys’ offensive line.The innovative scheme that opened the play and put players in a position to succeed. Wait, what? Scheme? Innovation? Success? Those are not three words we’ve seen combined very often when discussing the 2018 Cowboys’ offense. What exactly are we talking about here?Well, following the team’s abysmal start to the season that saw the Dallas offense ranked at or near the bottom of many statistical categories many were calling for new plays, new schemes, better play-calling. Instead, offensive coordinator Scott Linehan simply went back and ran a play that has proven successful multiple times in the past. If Sunday’s play looked familiar to fans, it should have. It’s pretty much the same play that has led to Elliott’s biggest pass-game successes in the past. Here’s Elliott’s longest career play, his electrifying 83-yard catch-and-run touchdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2016. It’s the exact same play with only a slight wrinkle. In both plays there is a fake hand-off to Elliott. Against Detroit the receiver motioned in front of Dak (near the line of scrimmage) while against Pittsburgh the motion was deeper in the backfield, behind Dak. Otherwise Youth Deonte Thompson Jersey , this is the exact same play. Here’s Elliott’s second-longest play in the pass game, last year against the San Francisco 49’ers:Again, fake handoff to Zeke, motion from the wide receiver (deep and behind Dak) before the screen to Zeke that puts him in space and allows him and the athleticism of the Cowboys’ offensive line to shine. Three plays, 189 yards and three touchdowns. Heck, why doesn’t Linehan call this play all the time and get this juggernaut going? Well, the truth is the play doesn’t work all the time. Remember the anemic performance against the Carolina Panthers opening weekend? Well, the Cowboys tried to jump-start theiroffense that week with this exact play. It didn’t go so well. First, full credit to Bob Sturm and the folks who support him at The Athletic (now) and SporsDay (in the past). He’s been tracking this play all the way back to 2016 and wrote about how it didn’t work on opening weekend. Which brings us to the real point - play-calling isn’t a stand-alone event. No play is designed to fail. Every time a coach calls a play it’s because they have reason, based upon experience, study and preparation, to believe it will succeed. But even the best designed plays can fail because there are variables beyond the coach’s control that can result in failure. Sometimes the players simply don’t execute. Sometimes the defense sniffs out a play and sometimes teams become too predictable and opponents can figure out what’s coming. A good example of this is the Cowboys reliance on bootlegs over the past few years. Early in 2016 the Cowboys’ used bootlegs to tremendous success. Remember Ezekiel Elliott’s first big-time play, a 60-yard touchdown run against the Cincinnati Bengals? Sturm documented back in 2016 how the Cowboys spent weeks setting that specific play up by succeeding (and eventually failing) with a series of bootleg plays. It was a fascinating read then and informs us today about how play-calling is a never-ending game of cat-and-mouse with opposing defenses. Both Sturm and Babe Laufenberg have repeatedly noted the Cowboys stubbornly continue to use the bootleg plays that succeeded early in Dak Prescott’s career despite opponent’s knowing the play is coming. Specifically Womens Zack Martin Jersey , the team favors the call on the first play of a drive inside its own territory.Earlier this year it resulted in a disastrous, drive-killing play against Seattle. We saw identical results against Philadelphia last year. Thus, it was quite surprising (to me anyway) the team enjoyed tremendous success employing the same strategy against Detroit by opening the team’s second drive with a bootleg pass that resulted in a huge first quarter gain. Yeah, the bootleg was to the right instead of the left, but I was surprised that:The Cowboys would again try the same play in such a predictable situation.The opponent wasn’t just sitting waiting for it as (seemingly) every other opponent has been the last season or so. Which simply proves, again, that play-calling is an inexact science and things may not always be as they seem. Many have credited more aggressive or innovative play-calling for the team’s success against the Lions. However, according to Dak Prescott, the Cowboys didn’t do anything new when the offense ran up 414 yards of offense after averaging 277 over the team’s first three games:Instead, the players executed better, the opponent was sometimes caught inthe wrong defense and the play calls might have been sequenced better. There is no magic bullet or easy button. Every NFL staff is looking for ways to unlock a successful play but every move results in a counter-move. But through the last 36 regular season games offensive coordinator Scott Linehan and the Cowboys’ offense has enjoyed great success using the screen to Elliott after motion in the opposite direction. I imagine they’ll try it again - and defenses will probably be looking for it. www.nflshopoutlet.com/detroit-lions

ATLANTA (AP) and deep pockets Evan Longoria Jersey , all their booming hitters and ace pitchers, the Los Angeles Dodgers are approaching three decades since their last World Series championship.They’re making another run at that elusive title.Only this time, Manny Machado is along for the ride.The slugging shortstop hit a three-run homer that wrapped up a 6-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves on Monday, sending Los Angeles to the NL Championship Series for the third year in a row and fourth time in six seasons.This is what the Dodgers had in mind when they acquired the free agent-to-be from the lowly Baltimore Orioles back in July.They’re hoping Machado is the one who turns Tinseltown into Titletown for the first time since 1988.“Can’t say enough about him,” Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts said. “A player of his caliber, there are so many expectations put on him.”Machado had only three hits in a 3-1 division series victory over the Braves, but two of them were homers. He finished with six RBIs.“We prepared ourselves to get here,” Machado said. “We’re not going to stop till we get what we want.”Clearly, nothing less than a World Series title will do. While the Dodgers went through the customary celebration that follows any postseason victory — they doled out T-shirts and caps Andrew McCutchen Jersey , posed for pictures in the middle of SunTrust Park, then doused themselves with beer in the clubhouse — the focus turned quickly to the next round.The Dodgers will face the Brewers in the NLCS. Game 1 is Friday night in Milwaukee.“We all know that there’s a lot more work to be done,” Roberts said. “We have eight more wins to go.”Los Angeles spent much of the season locked in a tight race with division rivals Colorado and Arizona, and required a one-game playoff with the Rockies to clinch its sixth straight NL West title.“We took a hard path to get to this point, but I do think it made us stronger and kind of galvanized our team,” Roberts said.It certainly helps to have a player of Machado’s caliber bolstering an already potent lineup. The Dodgers hit a franchise-record 235 homers during the regular season, and added eight more in the NLDS.“They’re a very powerful team,” Atlanta manager Brian Snitker said. “It’s what they’ve done all year is hit home runs. We’re not built like that yet.”Indeed, the Baby Braves were thoroughly overmatched in their first postseason appearance since 2013 http://www.giantsfanproshop.com/authentic-tony-watson-jersey , hitting .154 overall and scoring just eight runs. Though the future looks bright for a team that pulled off a massive rebuilding job much quicker than expected, Atlanta was not quite ready to contend with a team of the Dodgers’ quality.Los Angeles had too much power, too much depth, too much pitching.Not to mention too much Machado.“It was a great ride,” Snitker said. “We took a huge step forward this year. We had some very young players get a lot of great experience, both during the regular season and the postseason. And we have some really good players coming up. I really am excited about the future of the Atlanta Braves right now.”The Dodgers are locked firmly in the present.This is a franchise desperate to win one more game than it did a season ago, when the Houston Astros took Game 7 of the World Series at Dodger Stadium.That’s why they acquired Machado.“Coming over from Baltimore midway through the season — new ball club, new atmosphere, new teammates Gregor Blanco Jersey , new coaching staff, new front office, I mean, it’s always a bit of an adjustment,” he said. “But they’ve been nothing but amazing to us, to myself and my family. And coming here to a winning ballclub that’s been determined the whole way since last year to get into this situation and further, I’m just sitting here enjoying everything, enjoying the ride.”Machado wasn’t the only in-season acquisition to play a key role in the clinching victory over the Braves. David Freese, picked up from Pittsburgh just minutes before the trade deadline http://www.giantsfanproshop.com/authentic-pablo-sandoval-jersey , came through with a pinch-hit, two-run single that put the Dodgers ahead to stay in the sixth.The MVP of St. Louis’ improbable victory in the 2011 World Series, Freese is eager to take part in another magical postseason run.“You never know what this game is going to give you, what opportunities arise for you,” Freese said. “You just gotta be ready.” Jennifer Stewart/Getty ImagesRelief pitcher Brad Ziegler has announced his retirement from Major League Baseball after 11 seasons.The 39-year-old made his intentions known with a message on Twitter about his journey from the minors to the big leagues:Brad Ziegler BradZieglerThank you to all my family, friends, and fans. It time to move on... tsuTGHM9DhZiegler split the 2018 season with the Miami Marlins and Arizona Diamondbacks. He posted a 3.91 ERA with 50 strikeouts and 10 saves in 82 games.After being a 20th-round draft pick by the Philadelphia Phillies in June 2003, Ziegler was released by the team in spring training the following year. He joined the Oakland Athletics' farm system in 2004, spent four full seasons in the minors before making his MLB debut in 2008.During his professional career Duane Kuiper Jersey , Ziegler pitched for the A's, Diamondbacks, Marlins and Boston Red Sox. His unique submarine delivery that kept opposing hitters off balance helped the right-hander post a 2.75 ERA and 105 saves in 739 games.

NEW YORK (AP) — ust one out for the New York Yankees against Minnesota last year http://www.twinsfanproshop.com/authentic-miguel-sano-jersey , Severino starts this year’s winner-take-all matchup against the Oakland Athletics on Wednesday night .“I just want to win,” Severino said Tuesday. “If I can go four good innings and then the bullpen comes, that would be great.”Severino was chosen over J.A. Happ and Masahiro Tanaka despite a second-half slump. Rookie manager Aaron Boone said he made the decision after a staff meeting Saturday, slept on it and finalized it the next day .“I think he’s equipped in so many ways to handle this, and perhaps most importantly, he’s equipped with amazing stuff and the ability to dominate big league hitters because he’s such a talented pitcher,” Boone said.Severino left last year’s wild-card game trailing 3-0 after allowing four hits and a walk. Chad Green, David Robertson, Tommy Kahnle and Aroldis Chapman combined for five-hit relief as New York rallied for an 8-4 victory.“I was too excited Jason Castro Jersey ,” Severino said. “It was a good experience. Now I’ll take that tomorrow and try to treat that game like a regular game.”A 24-year-old right-hander, Severino was 19-8 with a 3.39 ERA and 220 strikeouts. He was 14-2 with a 2.31 ERA at the All-Star break but lost six of his next nine decisions before beating Boston and Tampa Bay in his last two outings.He lost 8-2 at Oakland on Sept. 5, allowing six runs — five earned — and six hits in 2 2/3 innings. He threw two wild pitches and Gary Sanchez had two of his major league-high 18 passed balls .“I think it was a miscommunication between us,” Severino said. “I think we didn’t set the right signs.”The wild-card winner advances to a Division Series against Boston starting Friday. Boone is including Happ, Tanaka and Lance Lynn as part of a nine-man bullpen Wednesday.Severino rebounded last year to beat Cleveland in Game 4 of the Division Series, getting a 5-0 lead and allowing three runs and four hits in seven innings. He lasted four innings in Game 2 of the Championship Series against Houston, a game the Yankees lost 2-1, then gave up three runs over 4 2/3 innings in the 7-1 loss in Game 6.Locating his 98 mph fastball is key.“He’s dealt with massive success. He’s dealt with struggles. He’s dealt with going to the bullpen. He’s dealt with things this year as far as having the kind of first half he did and then going through a few-week stretch there where he struggled on the mound,” Boone said. “So I think he’s equipped in so many ways to handle this http://www.twinsfanproshop.com/authentic-phil-hughes-jersey , and perhaps most importantly, he’s equipped with amazing stuff and the ability to dominate big league hitters.”New York went 100-62, its best record since winning the 2009 World Series, and became the 10th big league team that won 100 games and failed to finish first. The Yankees set big league records with 267 homers and 12 players with double-digit home runs, becoming the first team to get 20 or more homers from all nine slots in the batting order.In his first season after New York acquired him from Miami, Giancarlo Stanton led the offense with 38 homers and 100 RBIs. This will be the first postseason game of his nine-year big league career .“It’s a quick turnaround from ‘how did your season go’ to now,” he said. “That season is over. That’s already in the past, even though it’s a couple days ago.”EYEBALLSYankees games on their YES Network averaged a 3.60 rating this season, up slightly from 3.57 last year and the highest since 2012 Jose Berrios Jersey , but viewers dropped from 334,000 to 326,000. NEW YORK — The New York Yankees are inching closer toward clinching a wild-card spot for the second straight season. They also want to be the home team for the one-game playoff while giving certain players some rest.With those things in mind, the Yankees continue a three-game series with the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday afternoon at Yankee Stadium.“Our guys know what time it is,” Yankees GM Brian Cashman said. “Not that they’ve ever slacked off or cut back. We know all eyes are on us — always — and at the end of the day, it’s postseason baseball in front of us and we’ve got to secure that first and foremost, and we want to host the wild-card game if at all possible.”Article continues below ...The Yankees (94-59) enter with a magic number of two to clinch their second straight wild-card spot. They hold a 1 1/2-game lead over Oakland (93-61) for home field.“We want to play here. We feel like we have a home-field advantage, but I also don’t want to get caught up in driving that home so much,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said. “We feel like we can beat anybody http://www.twinsfanproshop.com/authentic-erick-aybar-jersey , anyplace.”Mindful of keeping players rested for the wild-card game, the Yankees opened the series by holding on for a 10-8 victory on a night when Giancarlo Stanton, Gary Sanchez and Miguel Andujar rested. Didi Gregorius and Aaron Hicks homered and Aaron Judge contributed an RBI double in his fourth game back in the starting lineup from a fractured right wrist.“Just trying to be wise here down the stretch,” Boone said. “Obviously, these games are really important and now that we’re whole we feel like we have really good options every day to keep guys in the fold.”The Yankees will be looking to add to the major league home run total as well. They are up to 249 — and 14 games from the major league record set by the Seattle Mariners in 1997.The Orioles (44-109) own 15 losses in their last 19 games after dropping their fifth straight to the Yankees. They nearly erased deficits of 6-0 and 9-4 by getting homers from rookies Austin Wynns, Renato Nunez and DJ Stewart but were done in by allowing at least 10 runs for the 20th time this year.“A lot of young players did some good things, but it’s just the pitching is not quite, I don’t know if you want to say mature enough,” Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said. “We did some good things Anibal Sanchez Jersey , but we can’t put together a lot of sequences.”Chris Davis went 0-for-4 with four strikeouts and is hitless in his last 16 at-bats. He is batting .170 with 189 strikeouts.“He can’t string it together consistently,” Showalter said. “It’s been a challenge for him most of the season.”The Orioles are two losses from matching the franchise record set by the 1939 St. Louis Browns, who finished 64 1/2 games out of first place. They are playing the rest of the season against the Yankees, Boston Red Sox and Houston Astros.After getting six solid innings from CC Sabathia on Friday, Lance Lynn makes his ninth start and 10th appearance with the Yankees. He last pitched in Sunday’s 3-2 loss to Toronto when he allowed one run and three hits in five innings.Lynn is 2-1 with a 4.37 ERA in five career appearances (three starts) against the Orioles.David Hess, making his 18th start and 20th appearance for the Orioles, owns a 5.20 ERA. Since getting his last win on Aug. 27 vs. Toronto, Hess is 0-2 with a 6.08 ERA.Hess last pitched in an 8-4 win over the Chicago White Sox on Sunday when he allowed four runs and six hits in 4 1/3 innings.Hess is facing the Yankees for the first time.

at punter. A competition brewed between incumbent Colton Schmidt and undrafted rookie Cory Carter. After the latter tore his ACL during the preseason Youth Dion Dawkins Jersey , the Bills kept the former until the beginning of September, when they claimed Corey Bojorquez off waivers. This kind of shuffling was commonplace for the Bills with regard to their punters this past season, and it served as a microcosm of the special teams struggles the team faced during the season. Rick Gosselin of The Dallas Morning News ranked the Bills 31st in his annual special teams rankings. That is far from the best they’ve ever had, as Buffalo typically has some success in the third aspect of the game.As a result of a poor year on special teams, the Bills parted ways with coach Danny Crossman, who had been in charge of the unit since Doug Marrone started in Buffalo in 2013. With such a poor showing, one might expect there to be plenty of changes to the unit; however, that seems unlikely given the Bills’ level of talent at two of the three “specialist” positions in the game.In our final installment of the state of the Bills roster, we profile the special teams, a unit that was terrible in 2018, but has plenty of bounce-back potential in 2019.Stephen HauschkaContract status for 2019: Signed; $3.25 million cap hit ($1 million dead cap if cut)Age: 33 (34 on 6/29/19)Playing time: 16 games, 122 ST snaps (27.79%)Key statistics: 22/28 FGs (78.6%), 25/26 PAT (96.2%), 66 kickoffs, 30 touchbacks, 34 kick returns allowed, 754 kick return yards allowedHauschka’s season should really be divided into two parts: Weeks 1 through 13, and Weeks 14 through 17. Why the delineation? Well Youth Tre'Davious White Jersey , Hauschka was having a typically sound year through Buffalo’s loss to the Miami Dolphins, having hit on 17-of-19 field goals and 15-of-16 extra points. After he was leveled by defensive lineman Henry Anderson of the New York Jets just prior to halftime in Week 14, Hauschka was clearly hindered for the rest of the year. He made only five field goals in nine attempts to end the year, and he even missed a pair of 42-yard kicks short over that time. Hauschka was perfect on extra points, but it was obvious that he was hurt. Assuming that he regains his health after an off-season full of rest, he should be back to himself next year. Carrying a $3.25 million cap hit in the final year of his deal, it’s possible that the Bills will look for some younger competition, especially if he struggles early in camp. However, the great likelihood is that Hausch-money will return for one last year.Reid FergusonContract status for 2019: Signed; terms of his three-year deal signed on 1/28 are not yet known) Age: 24 (25 on 3/24/19)Playing time: 16 games, 142 ST snaps (32.35%)Key statistics: 3 tacklesFerguson was set to be an exclusive-rights free agent, meaning that the Bills could have retained his services for the minimum salary for a player with his amount of service time. Instead, the Bills signed their long snapper to a three-year extension, thereby buying out his last two years of team control via the ERFA/RFA system. It’s a tremendous vote of confidence in Ferguson, who has held the long snapper job for the last two seasons after joining the Bills as an undrafted free agent in 2016, but his salary probably isn’t much different than it would have been under the ERFA and RFA tenders.Corey BojorquezContract status for 2019: Signed; $570,000 cap hit ($0 guaranteed) Age: 22 (23 on 9/13/19)Playing time: 8 games, 69 ST snaps (15.72%)Key statistics: 45 punts, 45.1 yards per punt White Charles Clay Jersey , 39.4 net yards per punt, 1 punt blocked, 4 touchbacks, 22 punts inside the 20, 20 punt returns allowed, 137 punt return yards allowedBojorquez was released by the New England Patriots after the preseason, and Buffalo quickly added him to the roster. He was the team’s punter for the first half of the season, and he was average overall. His gross punt average of 45.1 yards per punt was 17th in the league, and his net average of 39.4 yards per punt was 21st, according to Football Database. Neither of those rankings should provide him with ultimate job security, and a battle with another Cory looms for the preseason. Bojorquez ended the year on injured reserve due to a shoulder injury he suffered on a fake field goal that wasn’t supposed to be a fake field goal against the Tennessee Titans. Although he was hurt in Week 5, he lasted through the Bills’ Week 8 loss to the Patriots before being placed on injured reserve.Cory CarterContract status for 2019: Signed; $496,000 cap hit ($1,000 dead cap if cut)Age: 24 (25 on 3/5/19)Playing time: N/A; injured in preseason (torn ACL)Key statistics: N/ACarter was in the midst of a competition with Colton Schmidt over the summer, a competition which the younger punter probably had won, before an ACL tear against the Cleveland Browns in the second preseason game ended his bid for the gig. Carter punted three times and averaged 48 yards per kick in the preseason. He has a big leg and will certainly give his fellow Corey a run for his money this summer.Matt DarrContract status for 2019: Unsigned; ERFAAge: 26 (27 on 7/2/19)Playing time: 5 games, 43 ST snaps (9.79%)Key statistics: 20 punts, 40.5 yards per punt Youth Shaq Lawson Jersey , 36.2 net yards per punt, 1 touchback, 5 punts inside the 20, 8 punt returns allowed, 64 punt return yards allowedThe Bills’ third punter used in a regular-season game was the least effective, booting duck after duck throughout his month-plus with the team. Darr had last punted in the NFL in 2016, and the rust was evident when he returned to the league this year. Although he is an ERFA, I expect that the Bills will not tender him at the deadline.Positional OutlookFor a unit that performed poorly overall, I expect little change out of the main players. Hauschka is a prime candidate for replacement given his salary and his slide at the end of the season, but when he’s healthy, he is a good kicker who belongs in the NFL. He has had a good run overall with the Bills, and I expect that the team will keep him around. An improvement to the kick-coverage unit would help him to look better in that area of the game, as it appeared the Bills were trying to pin teams inside the 25-yard line rather than boot touchbacks for most of the year. That strategy backfired, as Hauschka allowed 754 kick return yards on only 34 attempts. That yardage total was ninth-most in the league last year.As for the punters, it should come down to a battle between Bojorquez and Carter, although it is entirely possible that the Bills release one (or both) and bring in someone completely different. With literally $1,000 guaranteed to all three punters on the current roster, Buffalo has the flexibility to do whatever they wish with the position. The long snapper spot is set Youth Josh Allen Jersey , given that they literally re-signed Ferguson at the beginning of the week. Barring an injury, he will man that position for the foreseeable future. The Buffalo Bills need help at wide receiver. When Andre Holmes is playing meaningful snaps and Kelvin Benjamin isn’t gaining separation, you need to help your quarterbacks out a little bit. Here are some candidates, why they make sense, and why they don’t make sense as we approach the NFL’s trade deadline this afternoon.Demaryius Thomas, Denver BroncosIt makes sense because:Thomas is due a change of scenery after spending his career in Denver. Asked about a trade on Monday, the soon-to-be 31-year-old acknowledge as much. The Broncos want his salary gone.It doesn’t make sense because:The Bills are playing for 2019 now, and at $14 million in base salary, it will be hard to keep the aging receiver on the roster even with the massive cap space Buffalo possesses. If he can’t be part of the long-term, I’m not sure why they would add him.Thomas was traded to the Houston Texans for a 4th round pick and a swap of 7th rounders.DeVante Parker, Miami DolphinsIt makes sense because:A former first round pick, Parker is entering the prime of his career and is still under contract in 2019. Buffalo gets a one-year look to see if he can become the receiver he was drafted to be. He has fallen out of favor in Miami, and was benched prior to injuries forcing Adam Gase’s hand. It doesn’t make sense because:Miami would probably take a lower offer from a team outside the AFC East, so Buffalo would have to overpay for him. He’s topped out at 744 yards and four touchdowns, and his production has steadily declined. He’s injury-prone.DeSean Jackson, Tampa Bay BuccaneersIt makes sense because:Sean McDermott and LeSean McCoy know him from the Philadelphia Eagles and he’s under contract in 2019, and could provide a bridge to a rookie WR. He’s averaging 22.8 yards per catch in 2018 despite being 32. He’s also asked for a trade.It doesn’t make sense because:He’s due $10 million next year and more than $5.5 million remaining this season. He asked for a trade from the struggling Bucs, so he probably won’t be happy going to a worse passing offense. Golden Tate White Jordan Poyer Jersey , Detroit LionsIt makes sense because:Detroit has some up-and-comers waiting in the wings they want to give some snaps to. He’s coming off back-to-back 1000-yard seasons and three in four years and is on pace for another. He could also help mentor Zay Jones and the rest of a young receivers room.It doesn’t make sense because:Tate is going to be a free agent at the end of the year and is 30.Tate was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles for a third round pick.Emmanuel Sanders, Denver BroncosIt makes sense because:Like his teammate Thomas, Sanders is due a change of scenery from Denver, who is in a selling mood. He is under contract for 2019, which is helpful for the Bills who might not be able to attract a free agent. He’s back on track after a slow 2017 season.It doesn’t make sense because:Sanders is already 31 and due $10 million in 2019. Pierre Garcon, San Francisco 49ersIt makes sense because:He’s under contract for the foreseeable future with a consistent track record.It doesn’t make sense because:Dude is 32 and on a steep decline.Mohamed Sanu, Atlanta FalconsIt makes sense because:Calvin Ridley has made Sanu expendable in Atlanta, who is falling behind in a strong NFC North. Sanu’s targets have fallen dramatically in 2018 and his lack of long-term production could make him a bargain on the trade market. Injuries and salary have piled up for Atlanta, putting them in a selling mood. Sanu is already under contract for two more seasons, and could bridge the gap to a 2019 rookie receiver.It doesn’t make sense because:I’m struggling to find a downside here. Buffalo has the cap space to overpay a guy like Sanu. but his cap hit is still really manageable. (He’s owed $6 million in 2019 and $6.5 million in 2020 plus about $3 million in 2018.) He’s been on successful offenses, but if Buffalo gets into a bidding war and his price jumps up higher than a mid-round pick, it could get dicey. Maybe Shaq Lawson becomes part of a potential deal, though...

a .500 team Youth Robert Woods Jersey , which is no surprise because for the past quarter century they've been a .500 franchise.Their record since 1994: 197-197. Their record this year: 5-5. Coach Adam Gase's three-year record: 21-21.If there's a middle of the pack, the Dolphins are in the middle of it. They haven't won a playoff game since 2000, but they could well be headed for their third 8-8 finish in the past six years."These are tough times to be a Dolphin fan," tweeted their former fullback, Pro Football Hall of Famer Larry Csonka. "Very frustrating. Shabby football."Far from perfect, for sure. Given the way the season has gone, it's amazing the Dolphins can still talk with a straight face about making the playoffs.They've been decimated by injuries, including the loss of quarterback Ryan Tannehill for the past five games. They've been outgained by 787 yards Womens Michael Brockers Jersey , third-worst in the league, and outscored by 57 points. They rank 28th in offense and 26th in defense.Yet they began the week with the eighth-best record in the AFC, while eight teams had worse records.In sum: more Miami mediocrity."We are in a good position," running back Frank Gore said with a straight face. "We just need to stay as one, believe in each other, believe in our coaching staff and try to get the next one."The next one will be Nov. 25 at Indianapolis, with Tannehill hoping to return from his throwing shoulder injury, although that may be a long shot.Only two of the six remaining games are against teams with winning records. So it's not impossible for Miami to actually make the playoffs for only the third time in the past 17 seasons."There are certain teams that have kind of separated themselves from the rest of the pack www.losangelesramsteamonline.com ," Gase said. "But right now, the only thing that's really been eliminated for us is an undefeated season. Everything else is on the table. Other teams are having a lot of the same issues we are, and it's really who can pull it together these last six games and find a way to get in."A bye week may not be enough time to resolve the Dolphins' many issues, however. That could take an offseason or three.For starters, the Dolphins are on pace to allow the most yards in franchise history. Their run defense ranks last in the league and seems to be getting worse, with 174 yards allowed per game and 5.9 per carry over the past five weeks. Defensive dysfunction is such that two-time Pro Bowl safety Reshad Jones took himself out of a game because he was unhappy with a plan to rotate personnel.And then there's the offense, which has gone nine quarters without a touchdown. In the past three games receiver Danny Amendola has thrown for more scores (one) than quarterback Brock Osweiler (none)."This football team deserves touchdowns," Osweiler said.Osweiler has been critical of his play as Tannehill's replacement Los Angeles Rams T-Shirt , and he's not alone. But bad luck has been an offensive culprit, too. The Dolphins lost their most dynamic player, receiver Albert Wilson, and two starting offensive linemen to season-ending injuries, and three other injured linemen sat out last week's loss at Green Bay.Bad health is less of an excuse on defense, where Gase's decision to jettison tackles Ndamukong Suh and Jordan Phillips left holes that haven't been filled. Yawning run gaps and blown coverage are staples, calling into question the future of second-year coordinator Matt Burke.That's a topic for the offseason, along with the future of Tannehill. First the Dolphins will try to summon a late-season surge Los Angeles Rams Hats , which would be something new.Over the past decade, their record in December is 22-22. As we all know, the Super bowl is a media whirlwind in which coaches and players are asked questions about literally anything and everything.Just recently, Los Angeles Rams Head Coach Sean McVay was asked about one of the coaches on his staff, Jedd Fisch. Fisch was hired in the offseason as a Senior Management Consultant, and as it was relatively unclear about what Fisch does on staff, McVay made light of his contributions:Looking back, it’s turned out to be a very wise decision because the difference in timeout usage (and even the use of the challenge flag) has been drastic. Although things were generally spectacular in McVay’s rookie year as a head coach in 2017 Los Angeles Rams Hoodie , his timeout usage was not. Though, like the great leader he’s been referred to as, he knew his boundaries and limits, so he created a spot for a guy to come in and help:Now it’s known why the timeout and challenge usage has been more effective in 2018 than it was in 2017, and it’s likely because McVay can confide in Fisch to do it accurately while focusing on his own responsibilities. Regardless, it’s incredible that an NFL head coach can actually get up on the stand and preclude that he’s “not smart enough” and subsequently take the wrap for the “bad timeout calls” when it was made clear that he isn’t responsible for timeout usage.Sean McVay continues to be one of a kind, so good luck to any NFL teams hunting for their McVay.

BOSTON (AP) —f the World Series winner is invited to visit the White House.Both World Series teams have minority managers for the first time http://www.washingtonredskinsteamonline.com/matthew-ioannidis-jersey , and President Donald Trump has had tense relationships with many minority groups.“I think as an institution, Major League Baseball has always had the greatest respect for the office of the presidency,” Manfred said. “That doesn’t change, no matter who’s there. Often we’ve had situations where individuals, players, whatever, don’t agree with all of the policies of the individual that occupies the office. I think the important thing is respect for the office.”Manfred addressed a number of topics prior to Game 2 of the World Series on Wednesday night, including start times and length of games. Boston’s win in the World Series opener took 3 hours, 52 minutes and ended at 12:03 a.m. EDT. Manfred said complaints about World Series start times reflect an East Coast prejudice.“When you start games at 5 o’clock Eastern, it’s the middle of the work day in LA. That’s not quite right either,” he said. “We’re trying to strike a balance and get the point, the window Authentic Adrian Peterson Jersey , where we can get the most people all across the country having a meaningful opportunity to watch the game.”Nine-inning games in the league playoffs averaged 3 hours, 35 1/2 minutes, up 6 minutes from the 2017 postseason and more than a half-hour longer than this year’s regular season.“I am always less concerned about it in the postseason,” Manfred said “It is human nature when the stakes go up, things slow down a little bit.”Manfred anticipates a new round of negotiations with players’ union head Tony Clark and his members over pace of play and game rules. Management had the right to unilaterally implement a pitch clock before the 2018 season but did not, and it retains the right to install pitch clocks for 2019. MLB did institute a limit on mound trips without pitching changes for 2018.“I spent a lot of time between the All-Star Game and here talking directly to Tony, trying to map out the things that we’d like to have meaningful conversation about during the offseason, putting him in a position to get prepared to do,” Manfred said.Baseball is monitoring rapid changes to the game caused by analytics, including shorter average outings for starting pitchers — and some teams going entirely with relief pitchers.“I do think that starting pitchers being on the field less presents yet another challenge for us in terms of marketing the game,” he said. “You look historically, right Adrian Peterson Jersey Elite , some of our greatest stars are starters, and if they’re out there less, it has a predictable effect.”Tampa Bay used a so-called “opener” instead of a starter in 78 games. Oakland and Milwaukee had bullpen games during the playoffs.“I do think it can be a useful strategy for clubs in certain types of economic situations,” Manfred said. “It’s really hard to argue with that based on the early returns. We’ll see how the returns look over the long haul.”Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw expressed concern this week that teams may favor relievers over starters because they are less costly.“The market’s going to answer that question, right? We’ll see what happens in the market,” Manfred said. “I’m not sure that that trend at this point is persistent enough to have a market effect, but we’re going to have another market here in just a few weeks and we’ll see what happens.”Strikeouts exceeded hits over a season for the first time in major league history, causing worry that there are too many pitching changes based on matchups that decrease offense.“I don’t spend a lot of time worrying about whether analytics are a good thing or a bad thing, and the reason for that is they are a real thing,” Manfred said. “We have them. They’re going to continue to use them. There’s nothing you can do to stop people from thinking about the game, however the heck it is they want to think about the game. I think what’s incumbent upon us and what we try to do is pay attention over the course of the season … think about we’ve learned during the postseason and see whether we may need to make some change in response to what we’re seeing.”On other topics:SIGN STEALINGWhile MLB cleared Houston of breaking rules on electronic surveillance, additional rules could be put in place for next season.“Sign stealing in and of itself is not a violation of our rules. It’s been a part of the game since Lassie was a puppy http://www.washingtonredskinsteamonline.com/adrian-peterson-jersey ,” Manfred said. “Where it becomes a problem is where there is a use of technology that otherwise violates our rules to aid the sign-stealing process. I think technology is evolving at a rate that it is incumbent upon us to constantly review and update our rules.”TAMPA BAY BALLPARKManfred remains hopeful the Rays will have a plan in place for a new ballpark by Dec. 31, the end of their agreement with St. Petersburg that allows the team to explore sites throughout the Tampa-St. Petersburg area. The Rays hope to leave St. Petersburg’s Tropicana Field and build a ballpark in Ybor City.“I love the site. I think that in terms of its geographic location in the region it’s a good one,” he said. “We have some work to do in terms of getting a financing plan together that will get that stadium built.”ANGELS BALLPARKManfred said the Angels‘ decision to opt out of their ballpark lease is part of a negotiation and should not cause worry the team would leave the area. CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Cubs left struggling reliever Carl Edwards Jr. off their roster for Tuesday night’s NL wild-card game against the Colorado Rockies.Edwards had a 5.14 ERA in 11 September appearances. He walked 12 in seven innings.Manager Joe Maddon said Edwards also is dealing with a forearm strain.“We wanted to be very careful right now, and we thought if we did not push him right now, he would be available for the next series,” Maddon said.The Rockies had three catchers on their roster for the single-elimination game: Chris Iannetta, Drew Butera and Tony Wolters. They opted for 10 pitchers, including former Cubs closer Wade Davis, and 15 position players.“Some other clubs might have a few more tough decisions based on the, maybe some of the experience and tenure of their roster, but in our case, it was pretty straightforward Authentic D.J. Swearinger SR Jersey ,” Rockies manager Bud Black said.Reliever Pedro Strop, who has been out since Sept. 13 because of a hamstring injury, is one of 11 pitchers on Chicago’s roster for the game at Wrigley Field. Speedy outfielder Terrance Gore also is active.“I told them a couple days ago, the last two games I was telling them Sunday I wanted to be in. They said no, they were aiming for Thursday,” Strop said. “Yesterday, I told them, ‘You know what, there (won’t be) Thursday if we don’t get Tuesday. So let me go in. Let me be available. If you find a spot for me in the game, put me in the game.'”Chicago and Colorado each dropped tiebreaker games for their respective division titles on Monday. The Cubs lost 3-1 to Milwaukee, and the Rockies fell 5-2 to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

ver confetti wrapped around the Lombardi Trophy http://www.cowboyscheapauthenticstore.com/antwaun-woods-jersey-cheap , people are upset. That’s normal.Fans have begun to call into question the motives of the Cowboys brain trust. The idea that Jerry Jones doesn’t care about the success of the Cowboys is a silly one but one that circles the confines of the internet anyway. Stephen Jones took to the airwaves of 105.3 The Fan on Thursday and defended his father’s ambitions.It’s pretty bold of Stephen to claim that Jerry would cash in his gold jacket for a fourth Super Bowl ring, but there’s likely nobody that knows Jerry better than the heir to the throne. The thing is he might not know him as well as one might think.Jerry Jones said he wouldn’t trade his HOF status for a Super Bowl ring just five months agoDuring an interview with Mark Liebovich regarding his at-the-time upcoming book Big Game, Jerry Jones was asked if his gold jacket was indeed worth another Super Bowl title. In the interest of full disclosure, Liebovich notes that Jerry had had a few drinks during the interview, but he’s also clear with what the Cowboys owner had to say.Stephen Jones was likely just trying to defend Jerry and forgot what Jerry himself said not too long ago, but it makes the duo look just a little out of sync. We have no idea whether or not the Cowboys truly would trade something material for another Super Bowl. What we know is that the way they’ve gone about trying to win one hasn’t been enough, perhaps they could trade away whatever has been holding them back. This past week has been one of reflection (and in some cases decisive action) for the Cowboys as they are on their bye. They’re 3-4 and amazingly almost half of the season is over.It kind of feels like a reset button was hit for the Cowboys with the trade for Amari Cooper. There’s a feeling of newness, freshness, and overall excitement. There’s a general sense of “I don’t know what’s going to happen over the second half of this season, but it sure does seem exciting” surrounding Cowboys fans everywhere. Earlier this week FanPulse results told us that less than 30% of Cowboys fans think playoffs are a possibility Cheap Ezekiel Elliott Jersey , but obviously anyone rooting for the silver and blue hopes there is indeed January football for Dallas. Alternating wins and losses is hardly going to cut it for the Cowboys if they want to get in the playoffs, but the NFC East has been average overall and they’re absolutely in the thick of things as we enter November.NFC East standings through Week 7:Washington Redskins, 4-2Philadelphia Eagles, 3-4Dallas Cowboys, 3-4New York Giants, 1-6Washington and New York square off this week and obviously we’re rooting for a Redskins loss. Philadelphia will “visit” the Jaguars in London and with Jacksonville looking flat as of late that’s likely an Eagles win, but to be fair they did just blow a 17-point lead, all in the fourth quarter. Things will get wild, unpredictable wins and losses will happen, and odds are good that the Cowboys will have more than their fair share of an opportunity to win the division.The Tennessee Titans game is the last game before the gauntlet beginsWhen the Cowboys do emerge from their bye they’ll play host to the Tennessee Titans on Monday Night Football. It’ll be Jason Witten’s return to Dallas and by the most insane coincidence ever it will happen on the one-year anniversary of Tony Romo’s first return when the Cowboys hosted the Kansas City Chiefs last season. November 5th is now a Cowboys holiday apparently.Nobody is in the business of looking past the Titans Youth Maliek Collins Jersey , but it feels fair to say that the Cowboys should win, does it not? (I know, I know, you refuse to assume the Cowboys should win a game until they show you something, blah blah, you get the point). As noted it’ll be Jason Witten’s homecoming plus Amari Cooper’s debut, under the bright lights of MNF, that’s a lot of positive momentum going the Cowboys way.Assuming the Cowboys do indeed beat the Titans and that the Eagles are victorious over the Jags then both teams will be 4-4 when they play each other in Week 10. Speaking of.Week 10 will mark the first game in Philadelphia that holds significance in the Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott eraThe last time that the Dallas Cowboys traveled to Philadelphia for a game that featured both teams playing for something was in 2015 when Tony Romo broke his collarbone. It’s been a long time.Matthew Emmons-USA TODAY SportsDallas and Philly have played each other in Week 17 in each of the last two seasons and each of them, respectively, had already locked up the NFC’s top seed and rested all of their starters. We’re going to get to see Dak and Zeke take on the Philly crowd that has something on the line which is always very interesting. This would make the Week 10 game bigger on its own http://www.cowboyscheapauthenticstore.com/deonte-thompson-jersey-cheap , but if the Cowboys and Eagles are both 4-4 this game will leave the winner with legitimate life on the season and the loser needing significant help. It will be the biggest game for the Cowboys in quite some time.The Eagles are the reigning Super Bowl Champions and while that deserves a level of respect, it might not be ridiculous to suggest that the Redskins are the more likely team to win the division. Washington still gets to play teams like Tennessee (who we’re suggesting Dallas will beat), Tampa Bay (Dallas does as well), and the Giants twice. The Redskins should at least get to eight wins while the Eagles still have to play both the Saints and Rams (apologies, an earlier typo had the Vikings here).The Philly game kicks off the four-game gauntlet that will define the Cowboys seasonDallas has yet to win on the road this season in four tries and their next two traveling games might be their hardest. Just one week after they visit Philly the Cowboys will be charged with exorcising the demons of a November ago when they play a road game against the Atlanta Falcons.The Falcons have struggled this season, but inside of their stadium (coincidentally the home of Super Bowl LIII where we all would love to end up) they’re a different team. Atlanta has scored at least 30 points in four of their five home games (yes they’ve already played that many) meanwhile Dallas has yet to break 17 on the road. That doesn’t bode well for us.Tony Casillas and I got more into this topic on the latest episode of BTB’s The 75O. Listen below:Right now it feels fair to say that the Cowboys will beat the Titans and lose to both the Eagles and Falcons. This would put them at 4-6 on a short week readying to host the Washington Redskins on Thanksgiving. Typically 10 wins is about or around enough to win your division and if this ended up being the case the Cowboys would have to win out in order to have a chance.You can almost talk yourself into the Cowboys beating the Redskins on Turkey Day because they should have arguably won when they visited our nation’s capital last week. Amari Cooper will hopefully present a difference of sorts, but even if you assume the Cowboys win that game things don’t get easier seven days later because the Cowboys host the New Orleans Saints on Thursday Night Football.Cowboys four-game stretch after MNF vs. Titans:At Philadelphia EaglesAt Atlanta FalconsWashington Redskins (Thanksgiving)New Orleans Saints (Thursday Night Football)Following this brutal stretch the Cowboys have an opportunity to end the season strong. After hosting the Eagles, they visit the Indianapolis Colts (the Matt Eberflus revenge game!), host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (maybe Zeke will jump in a kettle again), and visit the Giants in the regular season finale. You can argue that the last three games should be wins and obviously so much of this hinges on what Amari Cooper does over this stretch http://www.cowboyscheapauthenticstore.com/kavon-frazier-jersey-cheap , but anything can happen. The home game against the Eagles will be tough, but Dallas is a much better team at home than on the road.Dallas has to win at least half of this gauntlet or it’s going to be tough sleddingShould the Cowboys win at least two games of this particular stretch we’re discussing then you can argue that they’ll have solid chances while we’re all doing our Christmas shopping. If they drop three of them, possibly even all four, that should be the season right there. It’s akin to last season how the Cowboys hosted Philly, traveled to Atlanta, and hosted the Chargers on Thanksgiving... three losses that ultimately ended their season in many respects.This four-game stretch includes three playoff teams from last season, not to mention the one that won it all, and the current NFC East leader in the Redskins. It’s a very tough stretch and the Cowboys are going to have to pull something incredible off if they want a chance for a 17th game on the season. Custom San Francisco 49ers Jerseys
