The New York Jets seem to like their controversy, specifically quarterback controversy. In 2012, much of the Jets faithful were bargaining for the popular Tim Tebow to get a start behind centre over Mark Sanchez after he led the Denver Broncos on a magical run to the playoffs the previous season. Well, that never happened and Sanchez had his worst year as a pro amid all the controversy resulting in a miserable 6-10 season for New York. In 2013, the Jets drafted quarterback Geno Smith and he started the entire season - albeit he struggled through a lot of it - after Sanchez suffered a shoulder injury during the preseason. The team managed to put together a .500 record and it was believed Smith would get the ball again in 2014 to continue his progression. That might still happen, but the 23-year-old will have stiffer competition than Matt Simms for this go-around. Philadelphia and New York swapped pivots in the off-season as the Eagles signed Sanchez to a contract while the Jets picked up Michael Vick who had fallen out of favour in the city of brotherly love. Not only does Vick bring over a decade of NFL experience, but at one time was one of the most exciting players in the sport. "I look at him (Vick) as a big brother" Smith said to TSN. "I look at him as the veteran that he is, a guy that can definitely lend a helping hand to us all, all of us younger guys in this locker room. Especially myself, you know, being that hes played in this system and been a quarterback in the NFL for 11 years now. Just learning from him as well as competing with him and us helping one another get better is definitely something thats helping me out." Even though head coach Rex Ryan, who was signed to an extension through the 2015 season in January, and the Jets have said the job is open for competition, it seems that its Genos to lose and hell probably get the Week 1 nod. Vick has also suggested he understands that this is Smiths team and expects to play a backup role this season. Nevertheless, the 34-year-old Vick should still have plenty left in the tank and if the Jets are struggling early on with Smith racking up the picks like he did last year, the fans will want change and fast. Unless Smith can prove quickly that hes better than the 12 touchdown passes and 21 interceptions he finished with in his rookie campaign, Ryan should expect daily questions regarding his quarterbacks. Cue the controversy. The Jets were second worst in the NFL last season in passing yards per game with 183.2 and dead last in passing touchdowns with just 13. Smith - and possibly Vick - will need to improve those numbers considerably if the Jets want a sniff at playoff football. New York signed wide receiver Erik Decker to a five-year contract during the off-season. The 27-year-old is coming off two stellar seasons in Denver where he played with the great Peyton Manning. Decker almost doubled his numbers when he had Manning throwing him the ball compared to Kyle Orton and Tebow. You have to wonder if hell be able to put up solid numbers without a stud quarterback. The Jets have the ninth toughest schedule in the league with an opponents winning percentage of .520 from last season. Finishing with another 8-8 record might be viewed as a successful year for J-E-T-S in 2014. Notes Running Rampant Running back Chris Johnson will play his inaugural season in New York after spending the first six years of his career with the Tennessee Titans. The 28-year-olds best days are probably behind him, but hes still recorded over 1,000 rushing yards every year in his career and has stayed relatively healthy throughout. With the return of Chris Ivory and Bilal Powell alongside the addition of Johnson (who has a knack for breaking out long scoring scampers), the Jets ground game could really be impressive in 2014 which might make up for the lack of passing productivity. Run Stoppers The Jets did a great job at stopping the run last year, allowing only 88.2 yards per game, good enough for third-best in the NFL. That part of the game might be getting a boost with the addition of veteran linebacker Jason Babin who signed a two-year contract during the off-season. The 34-year-old is a two-time Pro Bowler and recorded 7.5 sacks with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2013. Rookie Watch New York, to the surprise of some, drafted hard-hitting free safety Calvin Pryor with their first pick (18th overall) out of Louisville. Many thought theyd go after a talented receiver to help out Smith, but decided to go with the man known as the Louisville Slugger. It will be interesting to see how the youngster pans out, as the Jets have a history of making questionable choices on Draft Day. Brian Orakpo Titans Jersey .

Ronaldo pounced on a loose ball inside the area to net the 82nd-minute equalizer -- his 23rd goal of the season for the league leaders. Karim Benzema put Madrid ahead at the Vicente Calderon Stadium after three minutes but, instead of wilting, Atletico hit back with two goals to take the lead by halftime. Koke smashed a low shot beyond Madrid goalkeeper Diego Lopez, who then watched Gabi Fernandezs swerving effort from 30 metres (yards) fly past him just before the break. Madrid stayed three points ahead of Atletico, but Barcelona was able to cut its deficit to Madrid to one point after a laboured 4-1 win against Almeria at the Camp Nou. Barcelona led 2-0 by the 24th after Alexis Sanchez tapped a rebound into the empty goal before Lionel Messi curled an exquisite left-foot free kick around the defensive wall and into the top of the goal for his 15th league strike of the season. A rout looked in the cards until Angel Trujillo got free to head home a corner in the 27th, and the relegation-threatened club made Barcelona work for its points. Carles Puyol, who had made a rare start, scored an even rarer goal after Messis header came off the bar straight to him in the 83rd minute. Xavi Hernandez scored moments later as the Catalans bounced back from a 3-1 loss to Real Sociedad last weekend. Madrid leads with 64 points, Barcelona has 63, and Atletico is on 61 points. The fifth meeting between crosstown rivals Atletico and Madrid since last Mays Copa del Rey final kept its trademark liveliness and aggression, with Atletico knowing defeat would likely end its dreams of a first title since 1996. "Atletico tried to make the game violent," Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said. "We dont play that way, however. But they tried right to the end." Atleticos defence played Benzema onside for the France striker too score his 15th of the season, leaving him alone to guide Angel Di Marias cross into the box past goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.dddddddddddd Ugly confrontations followed as both teams used gamesmanship to try and gain an edge, with Arda Turan booked for protesting in the 11th after Sergio Ramos tripped Diego Costa inside the area with no penalty awarded. But Atleticos pressure paid off in the 28th when Turan spotted Koke inside the area to smash past Lopez. Diego Costa, who will play at the Calderon for Spain on Wednesday, was a physical presence and troubled Madrid throughout. Atletico took the lead in first-half stoppage time when Gabis powerful drive beat the slow-footed Lopez for a deserved lead. In the second half, Lopez kept it close as Atletico found space on the counter with Madrid pressing for an equalizer. Despite being outplayed, Madrids attack finally connected when Gareth Bale failed to control a cross but the ball fell to Ronaldo to extend Madrids unbeaten run in all competitions to 28 games. "Atletico played a bruising style right to the end, when we finally got a chance to play and create opportunities," Ancelotti said. Madrid is unbeaten at the Calderon for 15 games, dating to June 1999. "The result is what it is," Atletico coach Diego Simeone said. "We had chances to win it. At least we showed we are still alive in the title race." Ruben Castros late goal gave bottom side Real Betis a 1-1 draw at 10-man s from fourth and the final Champions League spot. Betis was left 11 points from safety. Real Sociedad fell seven points behind fourth-place Athletic Bilbao after Kevin Gameiro skipped through a pair of defenders and netted the rebound from his initial shot to lead Sevilla to a 1-0 victory. Joaquin Larrivey scored as Rayo Vallecano climbed within three points of 17th-place Almeria -- and safety from the drop -- with a 1-0 win over Valencia, which played the last 15 minutes with 10 men. cheap nfl jerseys cheap jerseys cheap jerseys cheap jerseys cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' ' |
