is a fair result for the w Antworten

PITTSBURGH -- The list of rookie quarterbacks the Pittsburgh Steelers have provided lesson after lesson to over the past 12 years is long if not always distinguished.For every Eli Manning, Joe Flacco and Andy Dalton that Pittsburghs defense has taken to task since the start of the 2004 season theres a Charlie Frye, John Beck and E.J. Manuel.Only time will tell which group Philadelphias Carson Wentz fits into. At the moment, the Steelers (2-0) dont particularly care.While theyve been impressed as anyone by Wentzs preternatural calm while getting the Philadelphia Eagles off to a 2-0 start, theyre ready to provide their own unique test on Sunday.Hes definitely made plays in this league so far, but its up to us to make sure that stops this week, Pittsburgh linebacker Arthur Moats said.Thats typically what tends to happen when rookies find the Steelers on the other side of the line of scrimmage.Pittsburgh is 19-2 against first-year quarterbacks over the past dozen seasons, holding opposing offenses to 15.75 points and forcing double the amount of interceptions (25) as passing touchdowns allowed (12).Moats stressed the secret is, there is no secret. Maybe, but the defense Wentz will get an extended look at this weekend is unlike the ones faced by his predecessors.The Steelers are evolving in defensive coordinator Keith Butler seconds season on the job after replacing mentor Dick LeBeau.Last fall Butler tinkered with exotic blitz packages designed to ramp up the pressure and take some of the heat off a shaky secondary.Through the first two weeks of 2016 hes taken a decidedly less risky approach, often dropping Pittsburghs outside linebackers into pass coverage instead of sending them crashing helter-skelter into the pocket like a mob of Pokemon Go players.Through eight quarters, the Steelers have all of one sack. They also have zero losses. Seems like a pretty fair equation to Butler.We havent done (blitzed) like weve done it in the past because weve got a pretty good offense too, he said.Wed like to have the (sack) numbers that the hierarchy in the defense in the league has, but its worth more to me to win ballgames.Its telling that two of the three turnovers the Steelers have created have come on plays 38-year-old linebacker James Harrison found himself well downfield trying to cover players least a decade his junior.In the opener against Washington it was a diving interception in the end zone to seal a blowout.Against Cincinnati it was a textbook tackle on 22-year-old Bengals rookie wide receiver Tyler Boyd that sent the ball squirting onto the soggy Heinz Field turf with less than two minutes to go to preserve a victory.Call it the next step in the evolution of a defense searching for the proper balance between discipline and daring as Butler grows more comfortable with his personnel.Its like college, Moats said. Think about the difference between your freshman and sophomore classes and your junior and senior classes. Youre still talking about the same Xs and Os, but we can give a lot more detail to it.Details the Steelers are still ironing out. Butler isnt pleased with the inability of the defensive line to consistently create chaos. Then again, neither are his players.Sacks come in bunches, defensive end Stephon Tuitt said. Once we get one, theyre gonna start coming and coming.The Steelers are trying to figure out how to get to Wentz. At its height under Hall of Fame defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau, Pittsburghs defense made an awful lot of quarterbacks look like rookies. Not so much anymore.Then again, just because Butler hasnt let Harrison and company loose doesnt mean he wont.You definitely want to beat him up, Moats said. Youve got to hit him. Then again, if confuse him with different looks, now hes worried about trying to get hit and hes also thinking `Wheres the coverage at? `Wheres my hot receiver? It definitely needs to be a mix of both.And for all of their success against rookies, the Steelers can be had, even by players with an `R next to their name. Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith did it for Baltimore in 2007 and Brandon Weeden did it for the Browns in 2012.Butler downplayed the notion he can fool Wentz into mistakes.When you try to game plan for an offense, you dont take into account that hes a rookie, Butler said. Were not worrying about if somebody is a rookie or not.Game notes WR Markus Wheaton practiced again and appears set on making his season debut after missing the first two games with a sprained shoulder. ... DE Cam Heyward (knee) and FB Roosevelt Nix (back) were limited. ...

Arizona Diamondbacks Store . -- The Bishops Gaiters are showing they belong among the countrys top varsity football teams. Arizona Diamondbacks Gear . Barcelona also left injured defenders Carles Puyol, Javier Mascherano and Jordi Alba out of its squad for the trip to Glasgow. That means that Marc Bartra will probably start again in the centre of the defence alongside Gerard Pique. CHASKA, Minn. -- The Americans played Friday morning as if maybe they are the best team ever assembled.Jordan Spieth and Patrick Reed set the tone, Rickie Fowler finally won a match and the Americans got this Ryder Cup off to a red and rousing start at Hazeltine with the first sweep of the opening session by either side since 1975.This was just what the Americans -- wearing red shirts and navy slacks -- needed to try to avoid a record fourth straight loss, and the 4-0 start was fitting. That 1975 team had Arnold Palmer as the captain, and the Kings golf bag from that Ryder Cup was on the first tee as a tribute.With everything going on -- me not having a point and Phil being a big part of getting the players a lot more involved to Arnie passing and him being a huge part of the week, this is big for us, Fowler said.Mickelson was the catalyst behind a task force geared toward getting the players more involved. U.S. captain Davis Love III was surprisingly bold last week when he said the message to his players would be that they comprised the best golf team maybe ever assembled.The 1981 team, with 11 major champions, is considered the best ever. That team was the last to sweep a session (Saturday afternoon fourballs).Europe had to pick itself up for Friday afternoon fourballs.Four-nil is a fair result for the way we played, European captain Darren Clarke said. Its not an ideal start by any stretch of the imagination, but weve come back from deficits like this in the past.Spieth and Reed might have delivered the most critical point againstt Henrik Stenson and Justin Rose, who were undefeated two years ago at Gleneagles.dddddddddddd Spieth rolled in a birdie putt on the second hole, and the U.S. never trailed the rest of the way. Europe won only one hole at No. 9 to cut the deficit to 2 down. Momentum didnt last, though, as Reed rolled in a 10-foot putt to halve the 10th hole and Spieth made a tricky 12-foot birdie putt on the 11th for another halve.Johnson and Kuchar ran their record to 3-0 -- they won both their matches at Medinah in 2012 -- with the shortest match. They closed out Lee Westwood and Thomas Pieters on the 14th hole.The middle foursomes matches turned a tight start into a sweep.Rory McIlroy did his part, rolling in a pair of birdie putts on the 13th and 14th holes for a 2-up lead with four to play. Andy Sullivan, one of six European rookies, chipped far too strong on the 15th that led to bogey. And with the match all square at the par-3 17th and Fowler about 10 feet away, Sullivan found the water. McIlroy missed a tough 20-foot putt on the 18th that would have halved the match.Jimmy Walker and Zach Johnson bogeyed the opening two holes, but Sergio Garcia and Martin Kaymer couldnt take advantage. Europe led for 10 straight holes until a bogey on the 12th squared the match, and the Americans poured it on. They birdied the next two, won the 15th with a par and closed out the sweep with a birdie on the 16th for a 4-and-2 victory. ' ' '
