Eddie Jones has created an unstoppable England team but cannot claim all the credit for their recent success, according to South Africa head coach Allister Coetzee. Josh McCown Jersey .Coetzee stated former England boss Stuart Lancaster also had a hand in Englands superb run of form, which has included nine wins out of nine under Jones this year.England now turn their attention to the autumn internationals and their opening opponents South Africa, whom they host at Twickenham on Saturday.Coetzee described Jones as a flipping hard-working coach, having worked with the Australian during the Springboks World Cup winning campaign in 2007. But he added that Lancasters role in laying a strong foundation for England should not be forgotten.I must also not take any credit away from Stuart Lancaster, Coetzee said. The big thing about Test rugby is its about players being given opportunities and then making mistakes. They made mistakes under Stuart but they got the exposure there. That helped.Take nothing away from Eddie, he understood the profile of the team and where they are, he changed captains, he hit the right buttons and thats why they got the belief back.Its funny, a team with confidence is a good team. It doesnt matter about talent, if they ooze confidence and there is that cohesion and synergy then it is an unstoppable team.Thats where England are at the moment, they have that self-belief.While England have regrouped quickly since their humiliating World Cup exit one year ago, South Africas rebuilding process has been far from smooth.They were hammered 57-15 by New Zealand -- their heaviest ever defeat at home -- in the Rugby Championship last month, ending a tournament that yielded only two wins from six.Coetzee, who succeeded Heyneke Meyer in April, called for patience.We lost six or seven players [after the World Cup] with all their knowledge and experience in crucial positions, Coetzee said. To replace that will take time.Theres always stuff after World Cups -- reshuffles in management, leadership, in the team and culture, and player personnel. Obviously you never get it right just like that. A mindset change isnt just one training session, it will always take time.Their latest fledgling at Twickenham will be Francois Venter, who has been handed his debut at outside centre, while four other players in the starting XV boast 12 caps or fewer.It means only six taking to the field this weekend were part of the South Africa side that stunned England 31-28 in this fixture two years ago and Coetzee hopes they draw upon those memories for inspiration.They have to, Coetzee said. Thats what Test rugby is about. Its about knowing what to do, about not being overawed by the crowd and the pressure of being in a Test match.England will be without injured duo Maro Itoje and George Kruis from their pack but Coetzee is not taking any extra encouragement from the absentees.England are a very good team, Coetzee said. Although they have the injuries to Itoje and Kruis, you still look at that pairing of Courtney Lawes and Joe Launchbury, [Dave] Attwood off the bench, its still a classy team and a team that has been together through the Six Nations and the tour of Australia.Theres a lot of continuity. This is what our players are really looking forward to -- playing against the second best team in world rugby today and measuring themselves against those players. Eddie Goldman Jersey . Brazilian national coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has confirmed that the veteran goalkeeper is set to join Toronto on loan, saying it will help him be ready for the World Cup. Steve Fuller Jersey . Vettel was 0.168 seconds faster than Red Bull teammate Mark Webber around the Suzuka circuit. Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg was two tenths of a second off Vettel. "The car balance is decent, but I think we can still improve," Vettel said. http://www.custombearsjersey.com/...ersey-large-76t.html .ca NHL Power Rankings for the second straight week, ahead of the Pittsburgh Penguins and Colorado Avalanche. The top two picks in the 2016 draft -- quarterbacks Jared Goff and Carson Wentz -- probably wont play in the regular season any time soon. No. 3 pick Joey Bosa hasnt yet signed his rookie contract. Ezekiel Elliott and Jalen Ramsey, the?Nos. 4 and 5 picks, are well on their way to playing the majority of snaps for their teams. But what about the other 248 picks?NFL Nation reporters detail how every?player picked in the 2016 draft has looked so far in training camp, and their chances?of playing this season. Check out evaluations on each teams top pick below, and click the links after each team to view the full posts.Los Angeles Rams:?Quarterback?Jared Goff continues to make steady progress. The No. 1?pick?practiced with the starters for the first time Tuesday, and his ascension to the No. 1 spot on the depth chart still appears inevitable. Read more.Philadelphia Eagles:?Quarterback?Carson Wentz has demonstrated excellent arm strength, good mobility and a high football IQ so far. However, coach Doug Pederson is committed to his plan of having the No. 2 pick?open the season as the third-string?quarterback, behind Sam Bradford and Chase Daniel. Read more.San Diego Chargers:?No. 3 pick Joey Bosa?is embroiled in a nasty contract dispute and has not seen the field at Chargers Park since the opening of training camp two weeks ago. The defensive end?appeared to be making improvements during offseason work but needs to sign his contract and get into camp to reach lofty expectations in his rookie season. Read more.Dallas Cowboys: Running back?Ezekiel Elliott showed quickly in camp that he will be a big contributor as a rookie, but four practices in, the No. 4 picks?right hamstring tightened up and the Cowboys shut him down. They dont believe its anything serious, but given how important he will be to their success, they dont want to take any chances. Read more.Jacksonville Jaguars: The Jaguars wanted No. 5 pick Jalen Ramsey?to work only on the outside but changed that plan pretty quickly when they saw how well Ramsey picked up the defense. He has been working with the first team as an outside cornerback and as a nickelback. He has had some pretty good battles with wide receiver?Allen Robinson in camp.?Read more.Baltimore Ravens:?Offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley, the No. 6 overall pick, has been as good as advertised with his athleticism, maturity, intelligence and quiet confidence. Theres a reason why the Ravens are trusting Stanley to protect the blind side of Joe Flacco?only one season after the quarterback had season-ending knee surgery.?Read more.San Francisco 49ers:?Defensive end DeForest Buckner hasnt taken long to make an impact, quickly earning repetitions with the first-team defense. The No. 7 pick?has showed his versatility playing multiple positions along the line and hes trending toward landing a starting job sooner than later. Read more.Tennessee Titans: No. 8?pick?Jack Conklin?appears to be the solid and steady edge protector the Titans expected. The offensive tackle?has won a couple of key one-on-one battles in highlighter team competitions in practices. Read more.Chicago Bears:?Outside linebacker Leonard Floyd is quietly earning reps on the first team. The coaching staff is incredibly high on the ninth picks?athleticism, which they believe supersedes any concern over his playing weight. Read more.New York Giants:?Cornerback Eli Apple has split first-team reps all summer at left cornerback with Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. Coming from a program like Ohio State, the No. 10 pick?has not looked overwhelmed despite playing a difficult position. Apple has performed better than expected early in training camp. Read more.Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Cornerback?Vernon Hargreaves III started camp getting reps with the second-team defense at both nickelback and cornerback, with an emphasis on learning the nickel position. Because he played only outside at Florida, it has been an adjustment defending slot receivers. On Aug. 3, the 11th pick?started rotating in with the first team at both positions. Read more.New Orleans Saints:?Defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins?made his biggest splash yet Tuesday with a rare interception against Tom Brady in a joint practice with the Patriots. The 12th pick?has been solid so far, but the preseason games will be the best showcase since the Saints dont do a lot of live tackling in practice. Read more.Miami Dolphins: The Dolphins are not making it easy for the No. 13 pick. Offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil is still working out the mechanics of moving inside to left guard and continues to get most of his reps on the second team. That should change by September.?Read more.Oakland Raiders:?Safety Karl Joseph made the first interception of his young NFL career Wednesday by picking off Derek Carr in the end zone with a leaping grab. He has missed only one of 11 practices while being mindful of his right knee, which limited him to four games at West Virginia last fall and could keep him out of the Raiders preseason opener against the Cardinals.?Read more.Cleveland Browns:?Wide receiver Corey Coleman was having a strong camp before tweaking a hamstring. The 15th pick?has been as advertised -- stout, fast, strong to the ball and able to score touchdowns. He appears to be a legitimate playmaker. Read more.Detroit Lions: Offensive tackle?Taylor Decker was put at left tackle at the start of organized team activities and hasnt relinquished the spot. Unless something drastic happens, the No. 16 pick?is on pace to be the teams opening-day starter protecting Matthew Staffords blind side. He has shown flashes of improvement throughout training camp, but is still a ways away from where the Lions need him to be consistently. Read more.Atlanta Falcons:?Safety Keanu Neal came in with the reputation of being a physical player, and he hasnt disappointed in that area. The 17th pick is?more than just a heavy hitter, though, with the speed and athleticism to excel in coverage. Ken Margerum Jersey. Neal just needs to stay healthy; he already got dinged up with a trunk injury. Read more.Indianapolis Colts:?Center Ryan Kelly has been the starting center since the moment the Colts selected him with the No. 18 pick in April. The only downside for Kelly so far has been that he missed about a week of practice because of a left shoulder strain. Read more.Buffalo Bills: Outside linebacker?Shaq Lawson remains on the active/physically unable to perform list following May shoulder surgery and has done most of his work behind the scenes through the first two weeks of training camp. A source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter that the No. 19 pick?is likely to return between Weeks 6 and 8 of the regular season, which will almost certainly land him on the reserve/physically unable to perform list. Read more.New York Jets: Linebacker Darron Lee flashed quite a bit in Thursday nights preseason opener, according to coach Todd Bowles. The undersized but speedy Lee (one sack, one tackle-for-loss) showed he can make plays in space, but he disappeared a few times in the land of the giants. The No. 2 pick probably can help this year in a specific role, not as a traditional inside linebacker. Read more.Houston Texans:?Wide receiver Will Fuller?has impressed in camp with his speed and athleticism, and he seems to be working well with quarterback Brock Osweiler. Surprisingly, Fuller was listed behind Jaelen Strong, Keith Mumphery, and Cecil Shorts III on the first depth chart. Expect the No. 21 pick?to pass at least Mumphery and Shorts III by the end of the preseason. Read more.Washington Redskins:?No. 22 pick Josh Doctson still hasnt practiced in training camp because of his left Achilles injury. Team sources anticipated him being out a week or two after camp started; were approaching the end of that timetable. Read more.Minnesota Vikings:?The Vikings have worked wide receiver Laquon Treadwell into their offense gradually, but he has shown signs of development in recent practices, connecting with Teddy Bridgewater for a couple of impressive completions during last Saturdays evening practice. The No. 23 pick?is typically the last player off the practice field, catching around 50 extra passes once team work is over. Read more.Cincinnati Bengals:?Although cornerback William Jackson III had a promising spring participating in rookie minicamp and organized team activities, it has been hard to fully evaluate him in training camp. Thats because, barely one week into the summer practices, the 24th pick?suffered a chest injury that could keep him out the entire regular season. His rookie year will end up being a redshirt type of year, as the team migtht soon be resigned into focusing its attention on his return in 2017. Read more.Pittsburgh Steelers: Between nursing a minor injury and trouble guarding Antonio Brown, cornerback Artie Burns has had a rough training camp. Perhaps thats to be expected for a young player going up against Brown. Overall, the No. 25 pick?has had a few good moments in one-on-ones but also got outmuscled on a screen pass and a running play in his most recent 11-man work.?Read more.Denver Broncos:?Quarterback Paxton?Lynch has endured some bumps on the learning curve since the Broncos offense is far different and demands more of him than the one he worked in at Memphis. While the Broncos like the skill set theyve seen from him as a potential long-term starter, the No. 26 pick is?currently No. 3 on the depth chart and poised for a developmental year unless the Broncos suffer injuries. Read more.Green Bay Packers:?Can you say Mike Daniels Jr.? Defensive tackle Kenny Clark is like a Daniels clone. Clark is stout but strong at the point of attack and also has more pass-rush ability than you might think. The No. 27 pick is?a lock to start at nose tackle alongside Daniels and Letroy Guion in the base 3-4 and also should play in the nickel package. The Packers have been pleased so far. Read more.Arizona Cardinals:?Defensive tackle?Robert Nkemdiche has missed all of training camp thus far because of a sprained ankle suffered during a pre-camp practice. Expectations are still high, however, with the No. 29 pick?slated to join the defensive line rotation as soon as hes healthy.?Read more.Carolina Panthers:?Coach Ron Rivera continues to call defensive tackle Vernon Butler a work in progress because the former Louisiana Tech star hasnt consistently shown the ability to finish plays. But the No. 30 pick?is improving daily -- particularly with his pass rush -- and will be among the four-man rotation behind starters Star Lotulelei and Kawann Short. Read more.Seattle Seahawks:?Germain Ifedi?has?been tested by veterans but hasnt backed down and looks more than willing to mix it up every time hes on the field. The No. 31 pick?has been the starting right guard, and hell probably stay there, although its possible that the team tries him at right tackle at some point in the preseason. So far, the signs have been positive. Read more.Kansas City Chiefs:?Defensive lineman Chris Jones, whom the Chiefs took at No. 37 overall after trading out of the first round,?has displayed strong pass-rush skills at training camp. Jones wont start because the Chiefs have a strong veteran presence, but hell get some work as part of the playing rotation.?Read more.New England Patriots:?Cornerback Cyrus Jones is the teams top pick as a result of losing a first-rounder as part of the NFLs Deflategate penalties. The No. 60 overall pick?hasnt missed a practice, is a candidate to be a top kickoff and punt returner, and is competing for the top nickel role on defense. One area of inconsistency for the 5-foot-10, 200-pound Alabama alum has been muffing punts in practice. Read more. ' ' '
