early. Simmons missed his attempt Antworten

Of all Jacksonvilles offensive issues this season, the most glaring one has been a lack of big plays.The winless Jaguars are one of just two NFL teams (the New York Jets are the other) that have yet to gain 40 yards on any play.We have had our opportunities with big plays, coach Gus Bradley said. We are just not connecting on them. You still see it. You see the shots being taken. The opportunities are there. We are just not finishing on them.This could be the week Jacksonville turns it around.When the Jaguars (0-3) play AFC South rival Indianapolis (1-2) in London on Sunday, they should find plenty of chances for explosive plays. The Colts rank near the bottom of the league in several defensive categories, including yards allowed. So if Jacksonville is going to have a breakthrough performance, it could happen Sunday.Weve had three opportunities to go play and it hasnt been obviously what we wanted offensively, quarterback Blake Bortles said. But that doesnt mean for a second that weve lost the confidence as an offense or lost who we are and what we believe we should do. I think our bar and our standard is still at the same level, and we just havent been able to reach it yet.So its still there and thats what this week is for. Its to be able to go out and prepare and get ready and go reach those expectations that we have of ourselves in London.Playing at Wembley Stadium for the fourth consecutive year, the Jags hope to take advantage of the familiar surroundings by having a routine for traveling more than 4,000 miles from home and not being awestruck with the city or venue.Indianapolis, meanwhile, is making its first trip across the pond.Its a divisional game, so this game counts double, Colts receiver T.Y. Hilton said. For us, we know the easiest way into the tournament is to win your division. Its a big game. Why? Because its your next game, but at the end of the day, this game counts double.It really could be huge for Bradley, who is 12-39 in four seasons and surely has to be running out of chances to get Jacksonville on a winning track.More big plays would help Bradleys cause.With receivers Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns leading the way in 2015, explosive plays were a staple of Bradleys game plan. Only Odell Beckham Jr. of the New York Giants, Pittsburghs Antonio Brown and Buffalos Sammy Watkins had more receptions of at least 40 yards last year than Robinson, who led the NFL with 31 catches of at least 20 yards.The Jaguars insist opponents are doing more to take away Robinson, doubling him on some downs and keeping a safety over the top on others. They moved the Pro Bowler around more last week against Baltimore and he ended up with two touchdowns catches.But the deep balls were missing -- again.Our guys arent going to look at that and I am not going to look at that and our coaches certainly arent going to look at numbers, Colts coach Chuck Pagano said. Weve had our fair share of those big plays with this offense against us, and were not going to get lulled to sleep by numbers. And certainly we know this is an explosive offense and an explosive group of wideouts and a talented, talented quarterback that can get them the ball, so were going to prepare accordingly.Other things to know about the Colts and Jaguars as they play the first of four NFL international games in 2016:MOVING ON UP: If the Colts get their ground game working, running back Frank Gore could have quite a celebration in London . He needs 19 yards to pass Hall of Famer Marcus Allen, 22 yards to pass Colts career rushing leader Edgerrin James, 55 yards to pass Hall of Famer Marshall Faulk, and 88 yards to pass Hall of Famer Jim Brown on the NFLs career rushing list. And if he tops that, he could end Indys 53-game streak without a 100-yard rusher -- the longest in the NFL.PROTECT AND PROTECTING: Throughout the offseason, Indianapolis kept talking about protecting Andrew Luck. Luck kept talking about taking care of the ball. Both still seem to be problems. In three games, Luck has been sacked nine times and has taken 25 additional hits. Meanwhile, after a solid season opener, Luck has accounted for four turnovers in the last two games -- three of which were returned for touchdowns.TAKING Game notes With Jacksonville scheduled to play annually in London through at least 2020, the Jaguars will keep a close eye on how the Colts handle playing overseas and returning home without an immediate bye week. Indy hosts Chicago next week. Well see how they do with it, Jaguars general manager Dave Caldwell said. Id like to get information. Its not something that I wanted to be the first person to try.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL O. J. Simpson Jersey .

Lions has come to an end. Banks told TSN on Jan 2 that he had no interest in playing out the option year of his contract with the Lions in 2014, and he again made that clear in a conversation with Lions GM Wally Buono last week.

Instead of dwelling on the negative, Oates focused on what was good about the clubs recent play. It worked. Michigan State held off Florida Gulf Coast 78-77 on Sunday night when a game-ending timekeeping error led to a controversial finish.With 1.6 seconds remaining, Florida Gulf Coasts Christian Terrell threw a long inbounds pass from underneath his own basket. But the clock incorrectly started when the pass was thrown rather than when Antravious Simmons caught the ball by the foul line at the other end of the court.So as Simmons turned to try a game-winning shot, the buzzer sounded -- too early. Simmons missed his attempt, but FGCU players looked confused and coach Joe Dooley sought an explanation.Officials went to a video review as players and fans waited to find out whether the game was in fact over. After the delay, the play stood and Michigan State escaped.In a statement issued to a pool reporter, official Bo Boroski said that a timing error occurred with 1.6 seconds remaining on the game clock, and a stopwatch was used to determine if any time should remain on the game clock.The statement added: It was determined the ball was caught and released in 1.3 seconds, meaning if the shot would have gone in, it would have counted. After the miss, there was no time remaining in the game, therefore ending the game. By rule the possession can not be replayed. Period.Big Ten associate commissioner Rick Boyages also acknowledged the error in a statement Mondday.ddddddddddddA source told ESPNs Jeff Goodman it was referee Lewis Garrison -- not the clock operator -- who started the clock early on the final play. Typically, it is the responsibility of the referee inbounding the ball to start the clock.After the game, Dooley said he understood the ruling.We threw the ball in at 1.6 [seconds] and caught it at 0, Dooley told ESPNs Andy Katz. The refs said they didnt start the clock. The table said they didnt start the clock. The refs said they could only review if the shot goes in. My guy [Simmons] heard the buzzer and shot it.Eron Harris?had 31 points and Miles Bridges added 13 points for the Spartans (2-2), who shot a season-best 51 percent from the floor. They hit 52.9 percent of their attempts from beyond the 3-point line but struggled at the free throw line (57.6 percent).Florida Gulf Coast (1-3) got 18 points apiece from Brandon Goodwin and Simmons, who added 12 rebounds. RaySean Scott Jr. scored 14.The Eagles shot 46 percent overall and 47.1 percent from the foul line. They outrebounded Michigan State 41-29.It was the second meeting between the schools. Michigan State won 97-58 in East Lansing on Nov. 13, 2009.Information from The Associated Press was used in this report. ' ' '
