GREEN BAY, Wis. Ultra Boost Kaufen Schweiz . -- The Green Bay Packers appear to have the makings of a defense that could power a deep run into the playoffs.Its the offense, for once, that is looking to maintain consistency.Aaron Rodgers threw two touchdown passes, and the offensive line pushed around the New York Giants front and powered the ground game in a 23-16 win on Sunday night over the New York Giants.Rodgers was 23 of 45 for 259 yards and also threw two interceptions. Jordy Nelson and Davante Adams each had highlight-reel touchdown catches to help the Packers (3-1) build an 11-point halftime lead.But the offense was mired by uncharacteristic drops, and couple of big plays were called back by penalties. Mason Crosby kicked three field goals, including two in the fourth quarter.It is all about winning, Rodgers said before adding, We had a lot of opportunities tonight. ... We have to execute in the passing game as well as were doing up front in the run game.The Packers defense, though, kept limiting the Giants.New Yorks Eli Manning was 18 of 35 for 199 yards and was sacked three times.Defense, particularly our young guys in the secondary, did a heck of a job, Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. Run defense was there, pass rush was there. We were able to play good red zone defense.The Giants (2-3) looked out of sorts until a hurry-up drive that ended with Beckhams 8-yard touchdown catch with 2:54 left.We didnt make enough throws or contested catches. We need to play and execute better, coach Ben McAdoo said.EYES ON ODELLBeckahms first touchdown catch of the season stood on replay review after the receiver jumped high in the air for Mannings pass and was ruled inbounds after straddling the back line of the end zone.Beckham raised his both arms in the air in celebration after watching the replay on the Lambeau Field video board. He finished with five catches for 56 yards.Perhaps more importantly for the Giants, Beckham didnt throw an attention-grabbing tantrum like the meltdowns he had the previous two weeks against Minnesota and Washington.STAT LINERandall Cobb was the Packers most consistent receiver with nine catches for 108 yards. With the Giants missing starting safety Nat Berhe because of an injury, Cobb excelled in his specialty of working the middle of the field and turning short passes into long gains.Cobb appeared to be OK on the sideline after taking a hit to the back of his head or neck on a 13-yard catch on third-and-10 with about 2 minutes left.SHAKING IT UPThe Packers 16-play, 75-yard drive to open the game took up the first 8:42 of the game, the teams longest scoring drive by time on the season that ended with a touchdown . Coach Mike McCarthy threw different wrinkles at the Giants by using different personnel combinations on the opening drive, instead of sticking with the usual three-wide receiver combination of Nelson, Randall Cobb and Adams, with Eddie Lacy in the backfield.HEY ROOKIESTwo rookies teamed up for a turnover late in the first half for the Packers that set up a field goal. Linebacker Kyler Fackrell, a third-round draft pick, forced a fumble after sacking Eli Manning on second-and-10 from the Giants 39. Defensive tackle Kenny Clark, the Packers first-round pick this year recovered the fumble at the 31 with 1:15 left. Crosby kicked a 44-yard field goal with 3 seconds left to give Green Bay a 17-6 lead.ON THE CORNERGiants cornerback Janoris Jenkins had two interceptions in the first half, one coming on third-and-6 at the Giants 21 after a pass deflected off Nelsons hands . It was Jenkins first two-interception game since his rookie season with St. Louis, when he had two against Arizona on Nov. 25, 2012.INJURY REPORTGiants: The battered secondary lost CB Eli Apple to a groin injury in the second quarter. The rookie missed New Yorks 24-10 loss last week at Minnesota because of a hamstring injury, and had been listed as questionable for the Packers game. ... Dwayne Harris was taken to the locker room two separate times in the second half, for X-rays on his jaw and toe. ... DT Damon Harrison was in the locker room for an unknown injury for much of the Packers game-opening touchdown drive. He returned for the Giants second defensive series.Packers: Backup S Chris Banjo (hamstring) limped off after the opening kickoff of the second half. ... Lacy left late in the third quarter with a left ankle injury. He had 81 yards on 11 carries, including 77 yards on nine carriers in the first half.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Nmd Schuhe Online . -- Jakob Silfverberg is making himself right at home with the Anaheim Ducks, scoring four goals in his first four games. Adidas Nmd Billig Ebay . LOUIS -- Mike Smith is used to facing plenty of shots, so this was nothing new. http://www.nmdschweizkaufen.ch/nmd-r2-outlet.html .  Aside from the trilogy main event title fight, there are a number of intriguing matchups in the heavyweight, welterweight and lightweight divisions. THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- Lamarcus Joyner has been playing on a broken toe since the second quarter of the Los Angeles Rams season opener.Although his teammates and coaches are impressed by his resolve, the defensive back simply is determined to hold up his end of the secondary.I knew I had to be accountable to the defense, so I just kept my mouth closed and kept playing, Joyner said Tuesday after practice.Joyner broke the second toe on his left foot during the Rams season-opening loss at San Francisco. He said it felt like his foot fell asleep, and when his toe wouldnt move after his foot woke up, Joyner knew something was wrong.He just didnt tell coach Jeff Fisher or the training staff until the 28-0 loss ended.I just strapped on my cleats and I played, man, Joyner said. I know it was an important game to us. If you just think about 2014, that draft, how Coach Fisher ... gave up a pick for me, all that kind of stuff just ran in my mind. Theyve made a lot of sacrifices for me, so I can fight through something like this.Although an episode of HBOs Hard Knocks captured Joyner suggesting he was seriously contemplating quitting football, the defensive back says he is still devoted to the sport and the Rams: He played extensively in Los Angeles 9-3 win over Seattle last Sunday.After playing 134 of the Rams first 148 defensive snaps with only nine good toes, he intends to be in uniform again this weekend at Tampa Bay.It was nothing that was going to keep him from playing, Fisher said. You can kind of get an appreciation for his commitment to this game and his teammates. Playing through that is not easy.But Joyners toughness isnt a surprise to the Rams.Thats why we drafted him, Fisher said. We watched him for a couple of years there at Florida State, and hes one of those guys. Adidas Gazelle Schweiz. He shows it every day.Joyner might be getting some help soon in the Rams secondary, which is in for a workout from Jameis Winston and the Buccaneers.Cornerback E.J. Gaines is close to returning for his first NFL game since 2014 after participating in practice Tuesday. After missing last season with a foot injury, he has been out since last month with a left thigh injury.Fisher suggested Gaines could even step right into the starting lineup -- and though Gaines has played only 15 NFL games, the Missouri native is eager to add veteran continuity.I think weve been on a roller coaster, Gaines said of the secondary. Made some really good plays and made some bad plays. Weve got to be a lot more consistent out there. I hope we can put it all together in this third regular-season game.A year ago, Gaines was in competition with Trumaine Johnson for the starting cornerback job opposite Janoris Jenkins before getting hurt. While Gaines watched from the sideline, Johnson earned a $13.95 million contract for this season.After Jenkins left for a lavish free-agent deal with the New York Giants, Gaines was the favorite to fill the vacancy before his injury.Los Angeles used second-year free agent Troy Hill extensively against the Seahawks in place of starter Coty Sensabaugh. Hill held up fairly well against repeated targeting by Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson.Its anticipated, Hill said. Youve got a proven corner on the other side, and Im just unproven, so Im anticipating that. I expect that every time I go out there.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
