dering they gave up 408 yards to a team | Forum

PHILADELPHIA -- Camp Carson has begun for the Philadelphia Eagles. Cheap Nike Shoes China Free Shipping .All eyes were on Carson Wentz when training camp opened Monday, and the rookie quarterback will be the most watched player on the team for the rest of the summer.So what that he isnt expected to play unless Sam Bradford or Chase Daniel gets hurt.I felt pretty good, Wentz said after practice. There were a limited number of reps for everybody and we didnt have a lot of guys out there, but I felt pretty good. I felt pretty confident and I enjoyed it.Quarterbacks, rookies and selected veterans are practicing for three days until the rest of the team arrives on Thursday.Wentz became the talk of the town after the Eagles traded up twice to select him with the No. 2 pick in the draft. This came after the team gave Bradford and Daniel a combined $34 million guaranteed to be Nos. 1 and 2 on the depth chart.He came in ready to go, coach Doug Pederson said of Wentz. You just love everything about this kid. His energy, his work ethic, its just little things now, detailed things in his footwork, his drop, the progressions and where his eyes are. Those are the things in the NFL from a quarterback standpoint that really become very important on a game day. And those are the things that weve got to continue to work with him on throughout camp.Wentz started two seasons at North Dakota State and led the Bison to the FCS national championship both years. But he didnt take that many snaps in college and now he has to share reps with Bradford and Daniel.Pederson wants him to be ready to start should something happen in the preseason.I just want to get better every day, Wentz said. My biggest thing is that youre never a finished product, physically, mentally, any of that. So theres a lot to learn. You can never watch enough tape, you can never study enough, and I just want to come out every day and learn a little bit more and get a little bit better and at the end of camp I think Ill like where Im at.Wentz should get plenty of action in the preseason games. Then, if all goes well for the Eagles, hell take a seat and watch Bradford in the regular season while learning from him and Daniel.Theres only one football and it can be tough, Pederson said. But one thing that Carson has going for him, hes very mature for who he is and where hes at and what hes coming into. Even through the success of his college days, that he understands whats in front of him, and he understands theres a lot of work in front of him.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org---Follow Rob Maaddi on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AP-RobMaaddi Wholesale Nike Shoes For Sale .

CHICAGO -- The Chicago Bears dont know who their quarterback will be going forward.But they at least have one running back.Rookie Jordan Howard had a breakout game, running for a career-high 111 yards to back a solid performance by quarterback Brian Hoyer, and the Bears picked up their first win of the season with a 17-14 victory over the Detroit Lions on Sunday.I always thought we were going to win, but I wasnt expecting 100 yards, Howard said. That makes it even better. Just getting a win, Im very excited about that.The Bears were planning to use a committee approach after letting Matt Forte go as a free agent following last season. But with Jeremy Langford and KaDeem Carey hurt, it was basically a one-man show on Sunday.Howard carried 23 times and gave the Bears dormant running game a much-needed boost.He ran through defenders and exposed holes in the line -- an eye-opening performance for a running back who followed quite a path to the NFL.Howard transferred to Indiana last year after UAB shut down its program and was drafted by the Bears in the fifth round after averaging 134.8 yards rushing for the Hoosiers.I think we noticed pretty early on Jordan is a big back, coach John Fox said.We knew that coming out of the University of Indiana. I think the thing that we didnt know is the quickness of his feet and the vision that he has. I think hes outstanding and we will ride him pretty good moving forward.Here are some things learned as the Bears (1-3) also stopped a six-game home losing streak as well as a six-game slide against Detroit (1-3):WHOS AT QB? Brian Hoyer might have given Fox something to think about in filling in for the injured Jay Cutler.Hoyer threw for 302 yards and two touchdowns in his second straight start with Cutler nursing a sprained right thumb.The next game is at Indianapolis. And if Cutler is healthy, who starts?Id like to enjoy this for at least a few hours, Fox said.Hoyer shrugged off a similar question, saying, Its my role to do whatevers asked of me. Today, Im going to enjoy the victory. Whatever they say to me tomoorrow, then thats what Ill prepare to do. Cheap Nike Shoes Online Free Shipping. I think thats being a professional about it.STRUGGLING LIONS: The Lions dropped their third straight, with Matthew Stafford struggling to find open receivers and a short-handed run game once again unable to get going.Stafford was 23 of 36 for 213 yards. Marvin Jones Jr. had 74 yards receiving after setting a career-high with 205 yards against Green Bay the previous week.The Lions managed just 66 yards rushing and 263 in total offense.We were just not sharp at all, coach Jim Caldwell said. There was no rhythm to it. Thats my fault.DOWN ON DEFENSE: The Lions defense clearly missed the injured Ezekiel Ansah and DeAndre Levy, considering they gave up 408 yards to a team that came into the game 27th in total offense.Ansah sprained his ankle two weeks ago in Detroits loss to Tennessee and didnt return to the game. Levy has a quadriceps injury. He missed much of last season with a hip injury.CORNERBACKS COME THROUGH: Bears cornerbacks have three interceptions, matching their total of last season.Jacoby Glenn and Deiondre Hall each picked off Stafford deep in Chicago territory on Sunday, helping Chicago beat Detroit for the first time since 2012.They were pressed into action early in the season because of injuries to Kyle Fuller (knee) and Bryce Callahan (concussion, hamstring).The other interception by a Chicago cornerback was by Tracy Porter in the opener at Houston. Fuller had two interceptions last season and Porter one.SLOW STARTS: After taking halftime leads in the first two games, the Lions have been outscored a combined 38-13 in the past two.We just have to keep fighting and keep practicing, tight end Eric Ebron said. I have no clue. We ball out all week, 100 percent effort all week and we get to Sunday and we have no idea why. Its a bad drought we have and we have to get ourselves out of there.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
