EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- When people start talking about the success of the New York Giants defense, the names of Olivier Vernon, Janoris Jenkins, Damon Harrison, Jonathan Casillas and Landon Collins get mentioned frequently.One name that rarely gets mentioned is Brad Wing, a guy who is never on the field with the defense.Wingy is the Giants punter. He has been good all year, and absolutely in the zone in recent weeks. The 25-year-old Australian who played as LSU was named the NFC special teams player of the week after punting nine times last weekend for averages of 43.2 yards gross and 42.9 net. Five of his kicks were downed inside the 20-yard line. Dallas gained three yards on three punt returns.For the season, Wing is ninth in the NFL with a 46.5 gross average, and 10th with a 41-yard net.I think a lot of it is rhythm and timing, Wing said of his punting. Its getting into a zone and getting into a groove. Its always a little tougher to get into that zone in these colder months and we are doing a good job of that.Wing is quick to point out his success is more than him. Its Zak DeOssie making the snaps. Its Dwayne Harris covering his punts, including two that he downed at the Cowboys 3-yard line, the last on Dallas final drive in the 10-7 win.Statistically, Wing is averaging 1.5 yards more on his gross and more than two yards more on his net.He doesnt think that has anything to do with changes in his story. Its just the level of confidence has risen and being around these guys another year that just builds a relationship with these guys, he said.One thing that is obvious is that Wing has become more of a directional punter. He spent the offseason working on it, and few balls, if any, are kicked down the middle of the field.The third-year punter who spent his first season with the Steelers also is getting better with his boomerang punt. Its an old-fashioned pouch punt that seems to check near the goal line like a golf ball on the green when it hits right.That punt is more like a change-up punt, Wing said. There is no real way you can dictate the bounce, exactly how you want it to go. That punt just makes it a little more difficult for the returner to catch it in games with rain or wing when its already difficult to catch the ball. Thats a punt where you are trying to steal a possession.Giants coach Ben McAdoo has started calling Wing a weapon.We have seen the talent over the last two years, even when he was with Pittsburgh, DeOssie said. He is coming into his own, realizing how good he can be. He is executing on the field, doing a fantastic job.Wing says his only focus is punting well on Sunday against the Lions, who like the Giants have a 9-4 record with three weeks left in the regular season.Thats why you cant look past any game other than the one ahead of you, Wing said. We have a big one this weekend. They are coming in and they are hot. Its two very good teams playing December.Game notes G Justin Pugh appears ready to return to the lineup after missing five games with a knee injury.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Malik Jackson sees the Broncos visit to Jacksonville this weekend as a chance to prove to his former team hes worth the $90 million contract the Jaguars gave him after he rejected Denvers $53 million offer.They shouldnt have let me go, Jackson said. Thats my whole premise in going out there is letting them know Im a problem and you let this problem go and now you have to deal with me.Broncos linebacker Brandon Marshall knows just how he feels.Ive been looking forward to this game for a long time, Marshall said of his first chance to play against the team that drafted him in 2012 only to doubt him and dismiss him, cutting him on three separate occasions.This game means a lot to me. I want to win so bad. With how everything went down, it was very disappointing, and it was ... it was heartbreaking for me, Marshall said.That pain lingers all these years later.My old coach told me that he didnt know if I was going to make it in this league. And then it was weird, the old GM, (Gene Smith) told my agent that he thought I had a bad attitude, Marshall said. There was a while when the coaches wouldnt even talk to me. One time, the old GM, he cut me and he said, `Your ankles are stiff. Stiff ankles! He really said that.Insults like that dont fade; they fester.No, it never goes away, man. Ive always thought about it, what the coach said to me, what the GM said to me, and how I feel I was treated over there, the opportunities that I didnt have, Marshall said. This is something that Ive been looking forward to. I cant wait. Im going to have so much energy, so much juice. Im excited.When Marshall signed his four-year, $32 million extension last summer, he said he uses the Jaguars snubs as motivation whether at practice, in the weight room or between the lines on game day.Thats my chip, Marshall said, the biggest chip I have because people doubted me.Nobody doubted Jackson, who scored a defensive touchdown in Denvers 24-10 Super Bowl win over Carolina when he recovered Cam Newtons fumble in the end zone on Von Millers first of two sack-strips.Its just that the Broncos had to pay Miller , Marshall and Emmanuel Sanders --- whose contracts total $179.dddddddddddd5 million -- in the offseason after signing Derek Wolfe to a four-year, $37.5 million deal in January.The Broncos miss Jackson, though.After allowing the third-fewest yards rushing (83.6) per game last year, their run defense has tumbled to 27th, yielding 120 yards a game.The Jaguars missed on Marshall, who leads the Broncos with 259 tackles since 2014.The Broncos (7-4) are scrambling to make the playoffs for a sixth consecutive season and are facing tough breaks -- rookie QB Paxton Lynch is getting his second start with Trevor Siemian out with a sprained left foot -- and a tough schedule, with games left against the Titans, Patriots, Chiefs and Raiders after Sunday.Those teams have a combined 32-13 record.The Jaguars arent the pushover their 2-9 record might suggest as theyve lost six close games.Still, its been an adjustment for Jackson, who never lost more than four games in any of his four seasons in Denver.Its kind of sobering because you realize every teams not winning 12 games a year, said Jackson, who added he probably would still be in Denver had the Broncos made their same $53 million offer to him last season.Not that he regrets anything.I couldnt be happier, Jackson said of his new role as the veteran tutor showing younger teammates what it takes to become a champion.And hes hoping he gets to play another role this weekend, that of spoiler.I think that would be awesome to beat the old te
