Todd Gurley calls out Rams effort says t

The did not play winning football on Sunday, which is why they lost by 28 points to the . They botched the opening kickoff return, allowed a touchdown on their first defensive snap, turned the ball over five times, let throw for three touchdowns in three quarters without his top two receivers, and didn't score Dallas Keuchel Jersey until the fourth quarter when they were trailing 42-0. So no, the Rams did not play winning football, which shouldn't exactly come as a shock given , who is still employed by the Rams. -- a good running back stuck on an anemic offense -- had some thoughts about the offense's performance against a Falcons defense that isn't good. First, he said the Rams' offense looked like Justin Verlander Jersey a "middle school offense." Then he called out their effort level. He also refused to talk about the five turnovers. "It looked like a middle school offense out there," Todd Gurley says about the Rams. Lindsey Thiry (@LindseyThiry) "If you don't have nothing good to say, don't say anything at all," Todd Gurley says. Lindsey Thiry (@LindseyThiry) Todd Gurley said he does not think everyone has been showing up Hector Rondon Jersey to play, that people are going through the motions. Lindsey Thiry (@LindseyThiry) At 4- George Springer Jersey 9, the Rams probably aren't even going to reach that 7-9 record Fisher so desperately wanted to avoid before the season, unle s of course they manage to beat , 49ers and to close out the season. And yet, Fisher was the recipient of , so he's likely to remain in Los Angeles barring a firing. Still, But Gurley should be frustrated. He's a legit top-five talent -- evidenced by his electric rookie year -- that plays alongside an awful offensive line, subpar receivers, and a rookie quarterback who couldn't beat out for half a season. As a result, Gurley hasn't hit the 100-yard mark once this season. For what it's worth, I'm willing to bet that Gurley Gerrit Cole Jersey managed to rush for 100 yards way back in middle school.

Jared Goff active as backup for Rams vs.

Le s than two weeks after undergoing surgery for a broken and dislocated thumb, quarterback will be active for Saturday's wild-card game against the . However, coach Sean McVay has confirmed to that Goff will serve as the backup to John Josh Reddick Jersey Wolford on Saturday, as the second-year player gets the nod in the playoff opener.McVay was coy about his QB situation in the week leading up to Saturday's NFC West playoff battle. Goff did make his official return to practice, Gerrit Cole Jersey participating in a limited fashion, but, as reports, Wolford was the one who saw most of the first-team reps. The coaching staff prepped him to start this week, which seemed to be an in-house indicator that things were heading this way for Goff.While McVay did note that Goff threw well in practice, the matter of his in-game effectivene s due to that recovering right thumb still seems to be an area of concern for the staff and why he'll be active on MLB Houston Astros an emergency basis for this contest.Wolford, who hadn't thrown an pa s prior to Week 17, started in place Jimmy Wynn Jersey of Goff against the Cardinals in the regular-season finale. The former undrafted Wake Forest product went 22-of-38 for 231 yards and one interception, as well as 56 rushing yards, in the Rams victory to help get into the postseason. If history is any indication, this may not be the best news for the Rams, who'll be going up aginst a Seahawks team that seems to be surging at just the right time under veteran Ru sell Wilson. Since 2002, quarterbacks making their first playoff starter (like Wolford is) against quarterbacks who are not (like Wilson) are 15-31. For Wolford to advance L.A. into the divisional round, he'll have to defy a bit George Springer Jersey of NFL history.

NFL Playoffs wild-card picks Giants Lion

The regular season is over, and so is the Westgate Las Vegas Super contest. I laid a giant egg in it this season as part of Team OddsShark -- not even finishing above .500. NFL playoffs With that pre sure off -- was Robin Yount Jersey there really any? -- the playoffs are a time when great teams emerge, and it's also a time to continue my late-season surge. With only four games this week, I am including a few over-under picks in my Best Bets. Hey, I can't like all four games in terms of the sides, can I? So here Milwaukee Brewers T-Shirts goes: plus 4 : This just looks like a field-goal game to me. The Giants play good defense and will make it tough on and his receivers. But in the end, I think Rodgers will find a way to drive his team to a late score to win. It will be close. Give me the points. plus-8 Milwaukee Brewers Hoodie : Maybe this is a trap, and if it is, I'm caught. I know Seattle is great at home and this will be a wild atmosphere. I also know has been awful on the road against teams with winning records. But the Lions went to Seattle last season and lost by three and could have won the game late were it not for a blown call. This Seattle team is worse than that one. Give me the eight. Texans-Raiders -- under 36 : This is a really low total, but look at the quarterbacks and the Houston defense and you can understand why. The are starting rookie , so they will be cautious and run it a lot. The don't score a lot of points Ryan Braun Jersey . This won't get over 33. Steelers-Dolphins -- under 46: The have defensive i sues. I don't care what they did in the first meeting ( on Oct. 16) between these two. This time, in the first playoff game with , and on the same field, the will get their Jhoulys Chacin Jersey points, but I don't think they get into the 30s. The Dolphins will get two touchdowns.

Trades Chiefs should make before NFL dea

A lot of NFL teams have taken golf legend Arnold Palmer's quote to heart, especially when it comes to the NFL's trade deadline. Once an afterthought, the trade deadline has become one of the most anticipated dates on the NFL calendar. Several teams have already played their bold shot, with the trading for former All-Pro running back , the acquiring pa s rusher , and the trading for former 1,000-yard back .The also took out their driver before the deadline, acquiring former receiver for two picks in the 2023 draft. Toney, the 20th overall pick in 2021, will join a Kansas City offense that is already tops in the league in scoring and top five in numerous other categories.After a slow start last year, Andy Reid's team is off to a 5- Albert Almora Jr Jersey 2 start that includes a 2-0 record against AFC West foes. Kansas City emphatically responded to its four-point lo s to Buffalo in Week 6 by routing the 49ers last Sunday in McCaffrey's debut. Sunday's bounce-back win reinforced the narrative of a two-team race between the Chiefs and for the AFC's home-field advantage.The Chiefs can advance past the Bills as the AFC front-runner if they are able to pull off a big trade by the deadline. Here are four deals the Chiefs should consider making between now and Nov. 1. NO DE #94 Kansas City's defense could use a boost before the deadline. The unit is 25th in the in points allowed after allowing at least 20 points in each of its first seven games. While their ability to force turnovers has helped mask their deficiencies, the Chiefs need more weapons in their arsenal if they're going to hold off the Bills and the NFL's other top offenses during the second half of the year.An improved pa s rush is among the things the Chiefs defense could use. There's no way the would trade to a division rival Kosuke Fukudome Jersey , and the have already ruled out parting with before the deadline. So that takes us to Jordan, who is still playing at a high level in his 12th NFL season. The 33-year-old defensive end has 4.5 sacks this season for the , who despite Jordan's play is off to a disappointing 2-5 start.Third- and fifth-round picks seem like fair compensation for Jordan, but the Saints may get greedy and demand a second-round pick. Either way, the Chiefs have the resources to get a deal done, as Kansas City has 11 picks in the upcoming draft. PIT CB #17 Pa s defense is another area where the Chiefs need to improve in. The Chiefs are currently 30th in the league in pa sing yards allowed and last in the NFL in touchdown pa ses allowed. Rest a sured that, unle s things improve dramatically during the second half of the season, , and the AFC's other elite quarterbacks will certainly look to exploit the Chiefs' spongy secondary during the postseason.Unfortunately for the Ian Happ Jersey Chiefs, it doesn't appear that they will be able to acquire an elite defensive back at the deadline. They could, however, po sibly add a solid veteran to the mix that could provide a much-needed spark. One of those defensive backs is Jackson, a former first-round pick who has been at the center of trade rumors. Jackson, who celebrated his 30th birthday on Thursday, appears destined to be on another team soon as he has not suited up for the since Week 5.If nothing else, Jackson can provide depth and veteran experience to the back end of the Chiefs defense. The six-year veteran has 64 career starts under his belt, with 51 pa ses defended to boot. The Chiefs could probably get Jackson at an affordable rate, given the fact that the Commanders don't have much leverage in this situation. A fifth-round pick seems doable, or a fourth-round pick in exchange for Jackson and a future sixth-round pick for Kansas City.

CLE OT #78 This would be a tough trade to swing, as Conklin is a two-time All-Pro who at 28 is very much in his prime. But with the looking at a 2-5 record, and with Conklin set to be a free agent next year, Cleveland may decide to cut its lo ses now while elevating second-year tackle III into the starting lineup.The Chiefs would surely have to give up (at least) a second-round pick to acquire Conklin, who for the past several years has helped become one of the NFL's most productive running backs. The Chiefs' starting tackles have left something to be desired through seven games, especially in pa s protection. The addition of Conklin would strengthen the Chiefs' protection of . It would also help accomplish Reid's goal of wanting to have a more balanced offense while leaning more on the running game. CHI RB #32 Att77Yds308TD2FL0 Led by , the Chiefs running game has been solid through seven games. But solid may not be good enough, especially in the playoffs, when the ability to run and po se s the ball can make all the difference. Montgomery would bring an added dimension to the Chiefs offense. He's a powerful, straight ahead runner who would be a perfect complement to Edwards-Helaire and rookie . Montgomery's skill set is ideal for playoff football, especially in chilly climates like Kansas City.The Bears already parted ways with Quinn, so it's certainly po sible that they would consider trading Montgomery, who has split time this season with Khalil Herbert. A future third-round pick would likely be Ernie Banks Jersey the asking price for Montgomery, but the Bears may be wiling to settle for a fourth-round pick as Montgomery is set to be a free agent this offseason.

Giants release James Bradberry Rival Com

Two years after signing him to a $45 million contract as one of the top cornerbacks in free agency, the that they have released . Long speculated as a potential trade candidate this offseason due to his pricey deal on a financially tight team, the former Pro Bowler generated some interest from other teams, general manager Joe Schoen indicated recently, but not at his current price tag. Now Bradberry is poised to find a new home via the open market.Which teams will come calling? Here are seven logical landing spots for the veteran cover man:They spent an early pick on Ron Santo Jersey Clemson's , but pairing Bradberry with would take pre sure off both Booth and on the outside, giving Minnesota's restocked defense two rock-solid cover men for Kevin O'Connell's first year running the show.In and , Kansas City already has a pair of projected starting corners. But with now in San Francisco, it's no wonder the Chiefs were reportedly engaged in trade talks for Bradberry before the veteran's release. Along with former safety , he'd give them another veteran presence for their next playoff run.Fresh off a dazzling draft that saw them bolster two levels of the defense with and , the Eagles could now be looking at the one position of need they' Chicago Cubs Hoodie ve yet to addre s. With stopgap gone, Bradberry could be an even better plug-and-play outside starter opposite , giving youngsters like more time to grow. On a short-term deal, he'd get the chance to rebuild his market while playing the Giants twice a year. They've added two underrated veterans at corner in and , but in that division, you can never have enough help in the secondary. More than that, Bradberry has a history with defensive coordinator Patrick Jason Heyward Jersey Graham, who helped land the corner as the Giants' a sistant head coach in 2020 and oversaw the veteran's first Pro Bowl nod.New England warrants consideration solely for its tendency to take flyers on big-name castoffs. Also, even after spending a fourth-rounder on Arizona Kris Bryant Jersey State's , they could use more upside at cornerback, where they lost in free agency. Bradberry, even coming off a down year, would represent an upgrade on and/or .They alleviated some concerns about corner by spending a first-rounder on Florida's , who should pair nicely with All-Pro . But Bradberry would take pre sure off Elam to be a stud starter out of the gate, especially as the Bills look to win now. Coach Sean McDermott was Bradberry's defensive coordinator in Carolina when the drafted him, and the veteran's other former Panthers DC, Eric Washington, currently serves as the Bills' senior defensive a sistant. All the dots connect. Coach Ron Rivera was running the show in Carolina when Andre Dawson Jersey the Panthers drafted him back in 2016, and his departure coincided with Bradberry's. Plenty of other ex-Rivera staffers now reside in D.C., including Bradberry's former secondary a sistant . He wouldn't have to move far, and would get to face New York twice a year. Washington, meanwhile, could use another proven veteran at corner, where III struggled in 2021 and the depth behind fellow starter leaves a lot to be desired.

Brown was released by the Patriots Babe Ruth Jersey shortly after allegedly sending those me sages. The NFL is also likely reviewing Brown's recent actions as it pertains to the NFL. Brown forced a trade from the -- his team from 2010-18 -- before e sentially forcing the to release him just before the start of the regular season. Brown lasted le s than two weeks in New England before the Patriots released him after just one game.
