(Notre Dame) Ronnie Stanley #78 blocks Big offensive

TAMPA, Fla. -- Two weeks after looking like an offensively challenged team staring at a potentially long season, the Los Angeles Rams are off to their best start in 10 years.Theyve even got some touchdowns to show for the progress theyve made since being shut out in their first game after relocating back to the West Coast after a 21-year stay in St. Louis.All I know is we got Arizona at Arizona next week, coach Jeff Fisher said after Sundays 37-32 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. None of them are easy, but well take it.Case Keenum threw for the franchises first TD as the L.A. Rams since 1994 , and Robert Quinn tackled Jameis Winston from behind 5 yards short of the end zone on the games final play to seal the teams second straight win.In between, Todd Gurley scored on a pair of 1-yard runs, Ethan Westbrooks returned a fumble caused by Quinn 77 yards for a TD, Tavon Austin made a nice nifty move to turn a deep throw into a 43-yard scoring play, and the Rams (2-1) even weathered a 69-minute delay caused by a thunderstorm passing over Raymond James Stadium.I think we are in a good spot, Keenum said. I think we are getting better each week, which is what you want to do.Tampa Bay (1-2), meanwhile, has lost two straight since Winstons sparkling performance in a season-opening win over Atlanta.Winston threw for 405 yards and three touchdowns, but looked tentative on the games last play. He never took off full speed and was wrestled down after a 10-yard gain.The Bucs have yielded 101 points through three games, and the defense gave up two more plays of 40-plus yards against the Rams.The lesson our team has to learn -- every week is a battle. Our culture is not where it needs to be. ... I put that squarely on my shoulders, Bucs coach Dirk Koetter said.Theres something about our culture that let games like this get away, Koetter added. Weve got to get over that hump.Some things to know about the Rams and Bucs moving forward:RESiLiENT BUNCH: The Rams were far from perfect against the Buccaneers. Keenum threw a first-quarter interception that was returned by linebacker Kwon Alexander for a touchdown, and Kenny Britts second-quarter fumble led to another Tampa Bay TD. Los Angeles wasnt fazed, though, and forced a couple of turnovers -- ex-Buc Mark Barrons second quarter interception and Quinns fourth quarter, sack/strip that caused the fumble Westbrooks scooped up -- to score themselves.Turnovers hurt us early, but we go get two big plays on defense ... and that kind of balanced things out, Fisher said.WIDE LEFT: Bucs rookie kicker Roberto Aguayo had a tough day and may be a hot topic of conversation as the team prepares to face defending Super Bowl champion Denver next Sunday. The second-round draft pick out of Florida State struggled early in the preseason, hooked an extra-point to the left after Tampa Bays first touchdown and later missed a 41-yard field goal attempt wide left, drawing boos from the announced crowd of 55,009. The team has drawn some criticism for the decision to use such a high draft pick to select a kicker. If he makes the two kicks he missed Sunday, the argument could be made that the Bucs could have employed different strategy and/or might not have needed a touchdown at the end to win.Times like this are going to happen, Aguayo said, adding his confidence isnt shaken. Im excited for next week, to move on.BACK ON TRACK?: Los Angeles RB Todd Gurley rushed for 1,106 yards and 10 TDs as a rookie a year ago, however he averaged just 2.7 yards per attempts while running for 98 yards on 36 carries in the Rams first two games. He was more effective Sunday, even though he only averaged 3.1 yards on his way to 85 yards on 28 carries.Hes not there yet, but not because of Todd Gurley personally, Fisher said, adding the team has to do a better job converting third downs and doing other things to create more opportunities for the second-year pro.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFLnike vapormax γυναικεια .

Alex Ferguson has the answers. You should be warned: this is not in order… Carson Wentz (QB, North Dakota State) Carson Wentz #11 fights to recover a fumble People want to name Jared Goff as the No 1 player coming out of this draft, but I prefer Wentz. In the NFL, I think hell make less mistakes than Goff will. I cant help but think back to Goffs record in college - especially the game in which he threw five INTs in a game. It was one of the ugliest games Ive ever seen. Laremy Tunsil (OT, Ole Miss) Laremy Tunsil participates in a drill during the 2016 NFL Scouting Combine Tunsil was fantastic in his career at Ole Miss - although he had to be left out for almost half of his final season after an investigation by the NCAA. At 65, 310lb hes got all the physical attributes, and hes excelled in one of college footballs most difficult environments.Jared Goff (QB, California) Jared Goff drops back to pass The Eagles have already got Sam Bradford and Chase Daniel - and paid a pretty penny for both, so why are they likely to take either Goff or Wentz? I simply dont know. Frankly, I would store up their offensive line with a terrific offensive linesman like Tunsil.Ezekiel Elliott (RB, Ohio State) Ezekiel Elliott storms into the endzone Theres no question about this: If Elliotts behind a good offensive line, hell flourish, and probably get the offensive rookie of the year award. So thats why he should go to Dallas. Hes burning quick, highly elusive, and hes been compared to Edgerrin James. A team drafting him would take that. My big worry for him is that if he doesnt get the ball, he might throw his toys out of the pram, as he did against Michigan State when he blamed his head coach Urban Meyer about not getting the ball enough.Laquon Treadwell (WR, Ole Miss) Laquon Treadwell celebrates a touchdown Treadwell was one the best pass catchers in college football. His ability to go and get the ball is out of this world, and hell crush opposing secondary players. He might not be the quickest player in the Draft, but hes seen by US media pundits as a bigger and faster version of Anquan Boldin. Treadwell will hope for Boldins career earnings and longevity, too ($37 million over 13 years). Dara Kennedy spoke to running back Marshaun Coprich over a pizza to find out which teams might like a slice of him Jack Conklin (OT, Michigan State) Jack Conklin #74 in a physical battle Loved for his versatility, if Conklin gets drafted in the first round itll be one of the best stories of the first round.ddddddddddddWhy? He wasnt even awarded a scholarship at Michigan State at first, but walked on to play. And when he succeeded, he received a scholarship, but has remained very humble indeed. Playing-wise, the last time I really got to see him was owning members of the Ohio State defensive line on the road in one of the biggest games of the year.Josh Doctson (WR, TCU) Josh Doctson dives for a touchdown pass Before he got injured at Texas Christian, Doctson was a human highlight reel, catching just about anything you threw at him. It was like watching Allen Robinson - except the quarterback was probably better! Seriously, hell be a wunderkind in a good offensive situation!Will Fuller (WR, Notre Dame) William Fuller #7 prepares to catch a pass As a Pittsburgh Steelers fan already missing No 2 receiver Martavis Bryant, I hope that they get Fuller because hes got the outright speed to make him a huge threat. Seriously, Fuller was able to catch up with anything at Notre Dame, and although he might have some of his detractors, but hes a really good pass catcher.Ronnie Stanley (Notre Dame) Ronnie Stanley #78 blocks Big offensive linesman. Should be good for shoring up a team at the next level.Derrick Henry (RB, Alabama) President Barack Obama strikes the Heisman pose with Heisman Trophy winner Derrick Henry Henry ran behind an excellent offensive line and took home the Heisman Trophy, given out to college footballs best player last year. Give him the room to accelerate, and hell be one of the NFLs most powerful runners. Trust me, weve seen him in the flesh - its scary viewing. Hes going to be one of the under-the-radar draft picks thats going to serve a team nicely.Also See:NFL VideoRookies guideNFL on Sky SportsPundits ' ' '
