ssed by Cunningham.Vashti looks Antworten

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Sometime late Sunday afternoon, barring an upset or injury, Tom Brady is expected to become the winningest quarterback in the history of the National Football League.If he doesnt get the win, his rival quarterback, Jared Goff, would get his first.Bradys Patriots host the 4-7 Los Angeles Rams as New England looks to go to 10-2 -- and Brady looks to break his recently created tie with Peyton Manning and post his 201st NFL victory, counting postseason.Brady, who always downplays individual accomplishments, is dealing with a knee injury that had him hobbling a bit in last Sundays win over the New York Jets.Brady didnt start strong but managed the 50th fourth-quarter comeback of his career and said after the game his knee actually felt better than it did after the game the week before.In his regular WEEI radio appearance, he didnt indicate this Sunday would be a problem.Its better than last Monday, so Im very happy about that, Brady said. I think Im pretty optimistic.Goff became the LA starter two games ago and has thrown for 348 yards and three touchdowns, all the scores in last weeks 49-21 loss to the New Orleans Saints -- in two games as a starter.You have a big guy, hes a tall quarterback, hes long, Patriots defensive coordinator Matt Patricia said. He has an extremely strong arm and a very accurate arm in a lot of the different throws that they ask him to make.Hes a very good quarterback from the standpoint of arm strength and the ability to get the ball downfield. He has some tremendous skill players -- Kenny Britt, Tavon Austin, Brian Quick.When Brady looks across the line, he will see former teammate Dominique Easley, a first-round draft pick of the Patriots in 2014. Injuries cut his time in New England short and he comes into this game with 2.5 sacks for the season -- and probably a whole lot to prove.And he has help, with Aaron Donald (six sacks) developing into one of the best players in the league.Both Easley and Donald will apparently have to do it against Brady this week. However, tight end Rob Gronkowski wont play and might not play again this season after undergoing back surgery Friday..Meanwhile, Brady has been nothing short of sensational overall since returning from his four-game Deflategate suspension. He has completed 68.4 percent of his passes, thrown for 18 touchdowns and been picked off once in seven games -- and last week became the fifth NFL quarterback to throw for 60,000 yards in his career.Brady is 2-1 lifetime against the Rams. He is 98-17 in his career at Gillette Stadium and is 50-10 in December, when the Patriots are usually very tough to beat.Beleaguered Rams coach Jeff Fisher, speaking to New England media via conference call Wednesday, didnt seem to know the names of the Patriots running backs. He lauded LeGarrette Blount but overlooked Dion Lewis and James White and talked about Brandon and Danny.Theyre all different, he said. Ive got a place in my heart for LeGarrette because I gave him his start. I have great respect for him.Hes a big back and hes hard to get down. And then, as they rotate through, different guys play in different situations. They do a good job with it. He knows where the balls going to go.The guys are very, very disciplined. Im impressed with Brandon, and what hes done out of the backfield. Youve got to deal with him, in addition to Danny. And youve got playmakers all around. Weve just got to play sound defense.

Wholesale Shoes 2020 . -- Al Jefferson found a groove just in time for the Charlotte Bobcats. EUGENE, Ore. -- Just 18 years old, Vashti Cunningham is the reigning world indoor high jump champion. Trying to qualify for her first Olympics in the opening round of the U.S. track and field trials Friday afternoon, she was so focused on her jumps that she did not distract herself by talking to competitors inside the Hayward Field track.Not that there wasnt someone competing there alongside Cunningham who could provide strong advice for her future career.Amy Acuff first competed at the track trials at age 16 in 1992 before the Barcelona Games. She did not qualify at those trials, but she made the next five U.S. Olympic teams, competing in Atlanta, Sydney, Athens, Beijing and London. Despite being a month shy of her 41st birthday, having two children and a number of health issues this year, she was fighting for her sixth Olympics in Rio.Unfortunately, Acuff failed to advance to the high jump finals, missing her final three attempts at 1.84 meters (6 feet, one-half inch). With mixed emotions, she walked away from the high jump, and her career.I feel closure, Acuff said. I guess I felt like, Oh well, I tried my best and thats all you can hope for. I am officially retired from track and field. I said that before, but its for real now.Meanwhile, Cunningham qualified for Sundays finals, along with American record-holder and three-time Olympian Chaunte Lowe. The daughter of former NFL quarterback Randall Cunningham, Vashti is considered the favorite by many, though she says she doesnt consider herself that way. There are people who have done amazing things before me, she said. Im just one of the jumpers.Acuff said not to count out Lowe as the favorite, either, though she is definitely impressed by Cunningham.Vashti looks great, Acuff said. I had never seen her jump before. She just looks so natural and elastic. Im sure shell have a great career.Asked for what advice she has to pass to Cunningham and others, Acuff said: Just take care of your bodies.dddddddddddd There are so many great jumpers littered on the side of the freeway to the Olympics. Mainly ankles. A lot of people are just done by their late 20s due to injuries, so you have to be really smart about your training and very open to looking at it and being realistic about what you can handle.So how was Acuff able to jump so high for so long?I think because I just love it, she said. At the core of it, I just love the art of jumping. My biggest hope was to come here and have that perfect timing and beautiful jump. Thats the funnest part.Despite having never medaled in her five Olympic competitions (she came closest with a fourth-place finish at the 2004 Games in Athens), she definitely has a symbolic Olympic torch to pass on to Cunningham, perhaps one that will help the younger jumper compete all the way to the 2036 Games.I think that for Amy going into this meet, and her willpower is just amazing. Shes mentally stronger than a lot of other people, to come and fight and jump and do what she loves. I respect her a lot for that, Cunningham said. After the years shes competed, the fact she still has the fight to come back and compete again is amazing and I hope that Im like that when Im older.Given how well Cunningham is jumping at such a young age -- she won indoor worlds with a leap of 1.95 meters -- she could definitely win a medal, perhaps gold. Not that she says she feels any pressure in that respect.There is not as much pressure as there is on people who have been here before, Cunningham said. I think Ive done well at the beginning of the season. ? Im trying to win [Sundays final]. Get first place and go into the Olympics with that confidence. ' ' '
