San Diegos offence keeps humming, the Texans put up numbers in a crushing home loss, the Broncos are off the charts and the Jets have one of the most productive runners in the game. Nike Air Max 90 Essential Dames . All this and more in Scott Cullens 50 Points on NFL Week Four. 1. Chargers QB Philip Rivers (35-for-42, 401 YDS, 3 TD, 1 INT) continued his stellar start. Through four weeks, hes averaging 299.8 passing yards per game, the best of his career. His previous high was 294.4 in 2010. 2. Lions RB Reggie Bush (173 YDS, 1 TD, 22 touches) returned to the lineup with another huge game. He has averaged 144.3 yards per game in the three games that hes played this season. His previous career-high? 92.1 per game in 2011. 3. Texans RB Arian Foster (171 YDS, 1 TD, 33 touches) broke through with his most productive game of the year. Backup Ben Tate had a season-low eight touches (45 YDS), but fumbled once. 4. Turns out Chargers TE Antonio Gates (10 REC, 136 YDS, 1 TD, 10 targets) is far from finished. The 33-year-old ranks leads tight ends (with Jimmy Graham six yards behind and playing Monday night) with 364 yards through the first four games. Just like Rivers, thats a career-high per-game average (91.0) for Gates; his previous best was 78.2 in 2010. 5. Broncos QB Peyton Manning (28-for-34, 327 YDS, 4 TD) continues to shred the league. Hes completed a career-high 75.0% of his passes, is averaging a career-high 367.5 passing yards per game and has thrown 16 touchdown passes, putting him on pace for 64 in a 16-game season. 6. As Manning goes, so to go WR Demaryius Thomas (9 REC, 86 YDS, 2 TD, 10 targets), WR Wes Welker (7 REC, 76 YDS, 2 TD, 9 targets), WR Eric Decker (5 REC, 88 YDS, 7 targets) and TE Julius Thomas (4 REC, 43 YDS, 4 targets), though Julius Thomas isnt as accomplished as the wideouts. 7. Jets RB Bilal Powell (108 YDS, 17 touches) continues to deliver. He now ranks seventh with 400 yards from scrimmage. 8. Vikings RB Adrian Peterson (140 YDS, 2 TD, 23 carries) had his best game of the season against Pittsburgh. Hes second in the league with 421 rushing yards and first with five rushing touchdowns. 9. WR Larry Fitzgerald (6 REC, 68 YDS, 1 TD, 7 targets) may have been limited, but was not exactly shut down by Darrelle Revis who, to his credit, did have an interception. WR Michael Floyd (5 REC, 87 YDS, 10 targets) stepped up for the Cardinals and ranks 34th in the league with 240 yards receiving. 10. Texans QB Matt Schaub (31-for-49, 355 YDS, 2 TD, 2 INT) was great in the first half against Seattle and was going fine until making an incredibly ill-advised throw that Seahawks CB Richard Sherman returned for the tying touchdown in the fourth quarter. Questionable for most of the week, WR Andre Johnson (9 REC, 110 YDS, 12 targets) led the Texans receiving corps. 11. Browns QB Brian Hoyer (25-for-38, 269 YDS, 2 TD) delivered another win for Cleveland, connecting primarily with TE Jordan Cameron (10 REC, 91 YDS, 1 TD, 12 targets) and WR Josh Gordon (4 REC, 71 YDS, 9 targets). 12. Chiefs QB Alex Smith (24-for-41, 288 YDS, 3 TD, 2 INT) is getting turned loose in the Kansas City offence. Hes averaging a career-high 239.3 passing yards per game and has thrown seven touchdowns in four games. He threw 13 touchdowns in 10 games with San Francisco last season. 13. Cowboys QB Tony Romo (27-for-37, 244 YDS, 2 TD) is dinking and dunking more than ever. His 6.6 yards per attempt is the lowest of his career. His previous low was 7.5 yards per attempt in 2010, but hes also thrown just one interception in 152 attempts, after throwing 19 in 648 attempts (one every 34.1 attempts) last season. 14. Patriots QB Tom Brady (20-for-31, 316 YDS, 2 TD) had a fine game against Atlantas inexperienced secondary. Though he had some shaky drops, WR Kenbrell Thompkins (6 REC, 127 YDS, 1 TD, 11 targets) utlimately had a productive game, as did Julian Edelman (7 REC, 118 YDS, 9 targets). 15. Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles (127 YDS, 1 TD, 23 touches) kept his train a rolling. He was Kansas Citys most-targeted receiver, with 11, while WR Donnie Avery (2 REC, 23 YDS) was second with 10 targets. 16. Seahawks RB Marshawn Lynch (143 YDS, 1 TD, 1 fumble, 20 touches) was crucial to the Seattle comeback in Houston. He ranks eighth with 399 yards from scrimmage through four weeks. 17. As much as Giants QB Eli Manning (18-for-37, 214 YDS, 1 TD, 1 INT, 2 fumbles) continues to struggle, WR Victor Cruz (10 REC, 164 YDS, 1 TD, 16 targets) racked up the yardage against the Chiefs, who were missing injured CB Brandon Flowers. 18. Titans QB Jake Locker (18-for-24, 189 YDS, 3 TD) is expected to miss 4-8 weeks with a hip injury suffered against the Jets; Titans WR Nate Washington (4 REC, 105 YDS, 2 TD, 8 targets) keeps producing, but will find it more challenging with Ryan Fitzpatrick directing the offence. 19. Titans RB Chris Johnson (31 YDS, 17 touches) struggled against the Jets, and with the game out of reach, Jackie Battle (42 YDS, 11 carries) ended up with more yardage on the ground. With the quarterback situation changing, the Titans will need Johnson to handle being the offensive focus even more. 20. Bears WR Alshon Jeffery (5 REC, 107 YDS, 1 TD, 11 targets), TE Martellus Bennett (8 REC, 90 YDS, 12 targets) and WR Brandon Marshall (7 REC, 79 YDS, 14 targets) had productive games, but four turnovers from QB Jay Cutler (27-for-47 yards, 317 YDS, 2 TD, 3 INT, 1 fumble) made sure those yards came in a losing effort. 21. Falcons QB Matt Ryan (34-for-54, 421 YDS, 2 TD, 1 INT) put up big numbers in a losing effort. Falcons RB Jacquizz Rodgers (88 YDS, 13 touches); TE Tony Gonzalez (12 REC, 149 YDS, 2 TD, 14 targets) and WR Julio Jones (6 REC, 108 YDS, 13 targets) all had relatively strong games, though Jones had a difficult time getting free from Patriots CB Aqib Talib. 22. Browns CB Joe Haden effectively shut down Bengals WR A.J. Green (7 REC, 51 YDS, 15 targets). Just a little something to consider for Thursdays game against Stevie Johnson (or Robert Woods) and the Bills. 23. Bills WR Stevie Johnson (1 REC, -1 YDS, 6 targets) was a non-factor against the Ravens, but rookie WR Robert Woods (4 REC, 80 YDS, 1 TD, 8 targets) was more of a factor and played more snaps than any other Bills receiver. 24. With a mediocre passing game against Baltimore, the Bills still won because their runners got the job done (and the turnovers, but bear with me). RB Fred Jackson (87 YDS, 1 TD, 16 carries) and RB C.J. Spiller (77 YDS, 23 carries) were big factors for Buffalo, as they should be, yet both suffered injuries in the game. Jackson suffered a sprained MCL, yet expects to play Thursday night, while Spiller suffered an ankle injury. If, for some reason, they cant play, Tashard Choice is next in line for the Bills. 25. Steelers rookie RB LeVeon Bell (84 YDS, 2 TD, 20 touches) started and, while he didnt make much of a difference for the Steelers, hes a more productive back than any of the veterans that Pittsburgh had rolled out in the first three weeks. 26. Colts WR Reggie Wayne (5 REC, 100 YDS, 1 TD, 11 targets) and TE Coby Fleener (5 REC, 77 YDS, 1 TD, 7 targets) were the leaders against Jacksonville. With Dwayne Allen out, Fleener could become a viable fantasy starter. 27. The Broncos backfield continued to share the load. RB Knowshon Moreno (91 YDS, 1 TD, 13 touches) was the leaders, ahead of Ronnie Hillman (57 YDS, 13 touches) and Montee Ball (24 YDS, 8 carries). 28. Ravens RB Ray Rice (17 YDS, 5 carries) returned to the lineup...barely. Tough to take that ball out of the quarterbacks hands when hes throwing picks all day, right? 29. Washington RB Alfred Morris (71 YDS, 16 carries) suffered a rib injury, that he doesnt expect to keep him out, but Roy Helu (84 YDS, 15 touches) saw some regular action in the Washington backfield as a result. 30. Raiders RB Darren McFadden (29 YDS, 5 carries) suffered a hamstring injury against Washington and with Marcel Reese also hurt, Rashad Jennings (116 YDS, 23 touches) took advantage of his opportunity. 31. Bengals RB Giovani Bernard (75 YDS, 16 touches) continues to pull away from BenJarvus Green-Ellis (13 yards, 6 carries) in the Cincinnati backfield. 32. Patriots RB Stevan Ridley (79 YDS, 13 touches) had his most productive game of the season, which isnt saying much. LeGarrette Blount (64 YDS, 9 carries) had another nice effort off the bench. 33. Steelers WR Jerricho Cotchery (5 REC, 103 YDS, 1 TD, 6 targets) had 33 catches in 26 games over the past two seasons, but already has 15 catches for 248 yards and a couple touchdowns this season. 34. The San Diego backfield still gives more action to RB Ryan Mathews (103 YDS, 23 touches), but RB Danny Woodhead (86 YDS, 2 TD, 10 touches) was more productive. 35. Vikings QB Matt Cassel (16-for-25, 248 YDS, 2 TD) was decent in his first start for Minnesota. WR Greg Jennings (3 REC, 92 YDS, 2 TD, 4 targets) and WR Jerome Simpson (7 REC, 154 YDS, 11 targets) both had big games as a result. 36. Buccaneers QB Mike Glennon (24-for-43, 193 YDS, 1 TD, 2 INT) made his first NFL start, but has some work to do. WR Vincent Jackson (2 REC, 27 YDS, 11 targets) was questionable all week and couldnt get loose against Arizona. 37. Not a great game for Cardinals RB Rashard Mendenhall (34 YDS, 1 lost fumble, 15 touches) against Tampa Bay. If Mendenhall struggles, that could mean more looks for rookie Andre Ellington (51 YDS, 7 touches). 38. With the Cardinals defence not having to pay big respect to the Tampa Bay passing attack, Bucs RB Doug Martin (63 YDS, 30 touches) endured a tough day. Martin ranks fourth in the league in rushing (342 YDS), but his average (3.4) is third-worst among 22 backs that have at least 200 rushing yards on the season. 39. Colts RB Trent Richardson (71 YDS, 1 TD, 22 touches), who ranks 22nd among those running backs (at 3.1 YPC), got plenty of touches in his second game with Indianapolis with Ahmad Bradshaw injured. Still waiting for the rushing average to increase though. 40. Jaguars QB Blaine Gabbert (17-for-30, 179 YDS, 3 INT) returned to the starting lineup and was, as usual, ineffective. Weep for WR Cecil Shorts (7 REC, 61 YDS, 12 targets). 41. Not just Shorts. RB Maurice Jones-Drew (28 YDS, 14 touches) is finding it impossible to get loose. Hes rushed for 138 yards in four games, averaging 2.4 yards per carry. He led the league in rushing in 2011, with 1,606 yards, and averaged 4.8 yards per carry in the six games he played last season, so Jones-Drew has been productive on bad Jaguars teams, but its not working right now. 42. Jets QB Geno Smith (23-for34, 289 YDS, 1 TD, four turnovers) is not minding the ball very well. Its like hes competing with Eli Manning for the most generous QB in New York. Its a dead-heat right now, at 11 turnovers apiece. 43. Facing a Buffalo secondary missing four regulars (Stephon Gilmore, Leodis McKelvin, Ron Brooks and Jairus Byrd), Ravens QB Joe Flacco (25-for-50, 347 YDS, 2 TD, 5 INT). WR Torrey Smith (5 REC, 166 YDS, 1 TD, 12 targets) had big numbers, but it was an overall mess of a day for the Baltimore passing game. 44. The Eagles completed passes to nine different players against Denver; TE Brent Celek (3 REC, 57 YDS, 6 targets) was most productive. 45. With Miles Austin out of the lineup, WR Terrance Williams (7 REC, 71 YDS, 8 targets) started for Dallas and was effective, but also fumbled at the San Diego goalline late in the fourth quarter to squash any Cowboys comeback hopes. 46. With Nate Burleson out, it was supposed to be a big opportunity for Lions WR Ryan Broyles, but he had no catches on one target while WR Khris Durham (3 REC, 58 YDS, 4 targets) led the Lions in receiving yards against Chicago. 47. Chargers rookie WR Keenan Allen (5 REC, 80 YDS, 6 targets) took on a bigger role against the Cowboys. He had three receptions for 30 yards through the first three games. 48. Ravens OLB Terrell Suggs (17 total tackles, 1 sack) was unusually active, posting a career-high in tackles. Only twice before, in 152 career regular season games, had he registered double digit tackles in a game. 49. Cowboys ILB Sean Lee had quite a day, in on 18 tackles (15 solo) and scoring a touchdown on a 52-yard interception return. 50. Other defensive players with big days in Week Four: Lions MLB Stephen Tulloch (14 tackles, 1 sack), Bills LB Kiko Alonso (2 INT), Bills SS DaNorris Searcy (6 tackles, 4 PD), Bills FS Aaron Williams (2 tackles, 2 INT, 4 PD), Bengals OLB Vontaze Burfice (14 tackles), Bears OLB Lance Briggs (13 tackles), Vikings CB Josh Robinson (12 tackles), Vikings OLB Chad Greenway (10 tackles, 1 sack, 1 INT), Colts OLB Robert Mathis (5 tackles, 3 sacks), Texans OLB Whitney Mercilus (6 tackles, 2.5 sacks), Vikings DE Jared Allen (4 tackles, 2.5 sacks), Eagles MLB DeMeco Ryans (12 tackles), Patriots CB Aqib Talib (2 tackles, 1 INT, 4 PD) Scott Cullen can be reached at Scott.Cullen@bellmedia.ca and followed on Twitter at http://twitter.com/tsnscottcullen.

Bryant, of course, missed the pre-game shootaround on Thursday for Game 6 with a stomach illness, but started and performed admirably nonetheless; tallying 31 points on 13-of-23 shooting in a 113-96 setback in Denver.ALBANY, N.Y. -- Forty-five states would welcome the upcoming mixed martial arts title fight between Jon Jones and Rashad Evans. Their home state of New York still isnt one of them. Both light heavyweight champion Jones and ex-champ Evans have personally lobbied New York lawmakers to legalize the sport, and they say they have a lot of family, friends and fans who would pack the house here. Instead, theyll fight April 21 in Atlanta. "I think it would be a huge reward for the people of New York to be able to watch their champion compete in their backyard," Jones said. The Ultimate Fighting Championship title holder at 205 pounds, who lives in Ithaca, said putting the event in Madison Square Garden would generate money and jobs. "We both have huge fan bases. It would sell out so fast." Evans, a Niagara Falls native who now lives in Boca Raton, Fla., agreed. "Being able to fight at home, it would mean the world," he said. Each fighter visited Albany last year to meet legislators in the effort by the Ultimate Fighting Championship, the sports major brand, to make New York the 46th state to legalize and regulate it. The bill passed the Senate but died in the Assembly, where some legislators said MMA is too violent and sets a bad example for children. Backers counter that the popular televised sport, with elements of boxing, judo, grappling and kickboxing, has evolved from its rough early days with rules and protections for fighters that would be enforced by the New York State Athletic Commission, the agency that regulates boxing. They point out that the contests sell out big venues in other cities while some bouts have topped a million pay-per-view customers. The debate came around again this year. New Yorks Republican-controlled Senate, which passed the bill last year, included legalization in its budget bill this year. Opponents in the state Assembly refused to approve it. Gov. Andrew Cuomo has not taken a position, spokesman Josh Vlasto said. Assemblyman Steven Englebright, a Long Island Democrat and sponsor of legislation to legalize MMA, said it sometimes takes a few years to pass a bill in New York. He noted that Assemblyman Robert Reilly, an Albany Democrat and outspoken critic of the sport, is retiring after this year. Reilly said opposition will continue, noting several other Assembly opponents who helped defeat it for the past seven years who are sticking around. He also pointed to large cash bonuses the UFC pays for the best knockouts as evidence of a bad emphasis. "We find that, especially the UFC, but aall of mixed martial arts, is going in exactly the opposite direction of the other sports, primarily football and hockey, in that they literally promote concussions where other sports are working to eradicate concussions," Reilly said. Nike Roshe Run Heren. UFC spokesman Steven Greenberg said fast-growing MMA is one of the safest contact sports for its athletes. That group uses rules established by New Jersey Athletic Control Board that include stoppages by referees and ringside doctors and prohibit fighters from head butting, biting, gouging, stomping a downed opponent, groin attacks, throat strikes and several other potentially injurious moves. "Its absurd that New York is just one of two states where it is illegal," Greenberg said. There are three states, Alaska, Vermont and Montana, where its unregulated and where UFC wont go. Only New York and Connecticut outlaw it, though professional fights are held at Indian-owned casinos within those states, he said. Fights are on mats in octagonal cages and end in knockouts, submissions from choking or limb twisting, referee stoppages and judges decisions. Fighters wear only shorts and small gloves. So, how do two guys from a state where its illegal make it to the top of their sport? Jones, 24, who grew up in Endicott, won a state high school wrestling championship then wrestled at Iowa Central Community College. His older brother, Arthur, played football for the Baltimore Ravens last year while his younger brother, Chandler, played for Syracuse University. The 32-year-old Evans won his high school sectional wrestling tournament and finished fourth in the state twice for Niagara-Wheatfield High School. He went on to wrestle at Michigan State. He says New Yorks competitive scholastic sports provide an advantage because athletes have to be tough to get beyond their sectional tournaments. Neither worries about getting hurt, including during their upcoming fight that will be broadcast on pay per view. "Ive been fighting for five years now and Ive never had a concussion, never a bloody lip, never a black eye ... Ive been completely healthy and I fight every day," Jones said. His professional record is 15-1. Becoming a martial artist has made him more centred and laid-back, and less confrontational, he said. "The reason I do this is because its fun," said Evans, with a 17-1-1 record. He had to postpone a tentatively set fight with Jones last year because of a dislocated thumb. "Im from the school that if you worry about it, youre inviting that bad energy." cheap nhl jerseyscheap jerseys ' ' '
