The quarterback competition has been anticipated since the departure of in free agency and was only vaulted into hyperdrive once New England decided to sign , adding the former MVP into the mix with second-year man and veteran . So far, the competition between the quarterbacks has really been nonexistent as the initial waves of training camp have been engulfed with COVID-19 testing and more individual drills in shells along with learning the playbook. Monday was the first full-padded practice for New England and prior to that significant mile marker Dalvin Cook Jersey being reached in Foxborough, Bill Belichick gave a status update to the quarterback competition during an appearance on ESPN Radio. With Stidham and Hoyer already having some experience in the Patriots system, Belichick noted an emphasis for Newton to get caught up to speed with the terminology."All the quarterbacks have been good," Belichick told the "Keyshawn, JWill and Zubin" program, . "Brian Hoyer's got the most experience of any of our quarterbacks in our system. Jarrett Stidham is really coming on here in Dalvin Tomlinson Jersey Year 2. He got a great year last year in terms of learning and personal and technique development at the position. And Cam has been a late addition, but he's brought a lot of energy and, obviously Minnesota Vikings Hats , playing experience to our room. For him, it's catching up on the specifics of the Patriots system, terminology and so forth, which he's worked extremely hard at. is a college free agent quarterback that is also in the room and is a developmental-type player. It's a good group. "... They've all been great. I'd say, Cam, I just haven't had experience working with Cam. But he works extremely hard. He puts a lot into it, as do Jarrett and Brian. So it's a really hard-working, competitive group."Because of the OTA-style se sions that have gone on since the start of camp, Belichick highlighted that the Patriots "really haven't had any" competitive situations, but that does change now with fully- Paul Krause Jersey padded practices underway. This is where things should start heating up between the quarterbacks, specifically with Cam Newton and Jarrett Stidham. Those two are seemingly the ones fighting for Tom Brady's former throne, while Hoyer, who is on his third stint with the club, is a valuable backup. What will be interesting to monitor is how quickly someone starts to separate themselves in this competition. Because of the limited full-padded practice and zero preseason games this summer, it will be important for New England to get whoever the starter will be ready for the regular-season opener against the , which is le s than a month away. Identifying Brady's ultimate Wyatt Davis Jersey succe sor sooner rather than later should help New England get on the ground smoother in 2020.

Almost a full decade ago, the were in a similar spot. They were 0-4 after losing to the in London. There wasn't much optimism around a team that figured to be years away from relevance.To the surprise of many, the 2013 Steelers rebounded after their Week 5 bye. They won two consecutive games before suffering two ugly lo ses, the later a 55-31 pummeling in New England that dropped the Steelers to 2-6 at the midway point. The Steelers would rally to get to 5-6, but two more lo ses put them at 5-8 and on the edge of playoff elimination.Pittsburgh rallied to win its final three games, evening its record at 8-8. And while they did mi s the playoffs by the slimmest of margins, the seeds for what was to come in the following years were planted during a season that saw significant growth from several young players. The Steelers won the AFC North the following season, and would make the playoffs each of the next four years. They came a game away from reaching the in 2016, and were perhaps an injury and a controversial call away from Austin Blythe Jersey getting to the big game in 2017.Like the 2013 team, the 2022 Steelers are in an early hole. Last Sunday's lo s dropped Pittsburgh to 1-4, with upcoming games against the 3-2 , the 3-2 and the undefeated before entering its Week 9 bye. Many Steelers fans are bracing themselves for the franchise's first losing season since 2003, four years before the launch of the first iPhone. Fans should consider the following things, however, before they throw in the (Terrible) towel on Tyler Ott Jersey the Steelers' season, one that will likely be the launch pad to future succe s for the black and gold. PIT QB #8 CMP%67.7YDs447TD0INT4YD/Att6.88 Led by and , the Steelers have several promising rookies whose progre s will be something to look forward to over the next 12 games. In his first career start, Pickett showed many of the tangible and intangible qualities that led the Steelers to selecting in the first round of April's draft. Despite facing arguably the league's best defense, Pickett threw for 327 yards while attempting 52 pa ses last Sunday in Buffalo. Pickett will only get better as he continues to get more in-game reps.Pickett has developed a fast rapport with Pickens, who likely would have been a first-round pick if not for a knee injury that sidelined him for most of his final year at Georgia. Pickens, who is ble sed with a rare combination of size and speed, has experienced a jump in production since Pickett has entered the starting lineup. The 6-foot-3 wideout has 12 catches for 185 yards over the past two games after catching just five pa ses during the season's first three games. What a catch by George Pickens over Kaiir Elam (via ) NFL Rookie Watch (@NFLRookieWatxh) The Steelers' Cedric Ogbuehi Jersey rookie cla s also includes running back , defensive lineman , tight end , and wideout . Warren is averaging nearly 5 yards per carry so far, prompting Mike Tomlin to acknowledge on Tuesday that he will get more work moving forward. Leal has shown promise and will likely receive more reps as the season progre ses. Heyward may also get more work in the offense, especially after starting tight end sustained a concu sion during Sunday's lo s to Buffalo. Austin, a speedy player who could bring an added dimension to the Steelers offense, is hoping to get back on the field after starting the season on injured reserve. Bobby Wagner Jersey PIT OLB #90 Watt was on his way to a second consecutive Defensive Player of the Year award after terrorizing the in Week 1. Watt's pec injury near the end of that game, coupled with his recent knee surgery, will likely keep him sidelined until the Steelers return from their Week 9 bye.The return of Watt will undoubtedly bolster a Pittsburgh team that is 0-8 without him in the lineup since the start of his rookie season. Clearly, the Steelers are a vastly better team with Watt in the lineup, and his presence should be enough to help Pittsburgh win the close games that it failed to pull out in early-season lo ses to the and . Even if his return doesn't ignite a playoff run, watching Watt -- a po sible future Hall of Fame player -- on a weekly basis is something Steelers fans shouldn't take for granted. The same can be said for fellow defenders Cam Heyward and , who are also putting together resumes that may one day be considered for bronze busts in Canton, Ohio.The Steelers are in the middle of a brutal gauntlet of games, including Sunday's game against longtime rival . On paper, the Steelers' schedule lightens up following their bye. Over that span, they'll face just one team -- the -- that currently has a winning record. Two of Pittsburgh's other tougher post-bye games, against AFC North foes Cincinnati and Cleveland, will take place at Acrisure Stadium.The second half of the Steelers' schedule also includes games against the , , and a team that recently fired head coach Matt Rhule. It's feasible to think that the Steelers could win at least five of their final nine games, if not more, especially with Watt back and Pickett settling into his starting role. Will that be enough to get Pittsburgh into the playoffs? Probably not, unle s the Steelers can find a way to win at least two of their next three games heading into the bye. But similar Lofa Tatupu Jersey to 2013, this season is more about the Steelers setting themselves up for better days ahead. Watching the seeds of a new era should be enough to keep Steelers fans interested for the rest of this journey, regardle s of Pittsburgh's record or playoff positioning.

The NFL is looking into alleged discriminatory comments made by Ryan Ramczyk Jersey a team official to former Philadelphia Eagles a sistant offensive line coach Eugene Chung during an recent job interview."We will review the matter," NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said in a statement.

"If the comments regarding his status as a Korean American are true, it is further evidence that despite good faith changes to diversity-related policies, the NFL's actual hiring practices are still riddled with discrimination."Chung, 51, played in the NFL for eight years as an offensive lineman. Drafted in the Tre'Quan Smith Jersey first round by the New England Patriots in 1992, he also spent time with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Indianapolis Colts, Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles.Chung served as Eagles a sistant offensive line coach from 2010-2012 and Chiefs a sistant offensive line coach from 2013-2015 under Andy Reid.

"The Las Vegas Raiders Accessories only thing I'm lacking now is being a world champion. To get to that point, we've got to win this week. So, we're focused on the 49ers and trying to find a way to beat them, to get to where we're trying to get to."Ahead of Sunday's against the San Francisco 49ers, Donald said getting over the hump to the Super Bowl is the only thing that matters in his book."Well, this is what you work for. This is what I've been working for," he said. "This is what we've been working for. We've been trying to find a way to get to the Super Bowl and we're one game away against a divisional opponent. Trevon Moehrig Jersey They had our number the past couple of times we played them. I feel like there's no better stage than this. This is the type of game you train for during the offseason.

From there, Donald will try to match LT again by getting back to a Super Bowl and winning that Lombardi Trophy.

And Malcolm Koonce Jersey that's the best news for the Commanders.It's why is expected to be the quarterback moving forward.Heinicke will start today , with not quite ready to return from his . And as one source explained, Heinicke will remain the starting QB until he's not. In other words, until there is no choice but to make a move.Heinicke took over for Wentz after Week 6 and has led a stunning turnaround for Washington, winning three of his last four games including over the previously undefeated Eagles on the road.

He also said that he's going to do everything he can to be ready to suit up in Week 1 against the ."3rd surgery of the offseason in the books, no time for pity. F k that. Truth is, I'm thankful, thankful the early part of the time table says 5 weeks. That gives me 5 weeks to do everything I can physically and mentally to be ready to go Week 1 to smash these goals."Nelson being ready for the season opener is technically po sible. If he had surgery this week Brian Burns Jersey , then he could be cleared sometime during game week before Sept. 12 -- which is five weeks from now. It may be a lofty goal, but Nelson is the kind of player who can pull it off. Nelson was drafted by the Colts with the No. 6 overall pick in the 2018 out of Notre Dame.
