This NFL is nuts.Period.We are a third of the way through the NFL season, and it's already a league where little makes sense.Before the season, the , and were considered three of the top teams in the NFC, if not the top three. Six weeks in, they are a combined 9-9 -- or just three of the many mediocre teams in the NFL.The and the have lived up to their preseason expectations, but the , and , three teams many tagged as playoff teams, are all 3-3.Right now, there is a lot of mediocrity in the NFL. We have 10 teams with winning records, 10 with 3-3 records and 12 with losing records. Among the teams with winning records are the (5-1) and (4-2), a parlay few saw coming.This crazine s makes doing Power Rankings as hard as it's ever been. Try it before you scream and yell at mine.The Giants are now up Janne Kuokkanen Jersey to fifth in my Power Rankings, while the Jets are up to seventh. Both beat good teams Sunday, with the Jets actually going into Lambeau Field and dominating the Packers. The Giants found a way against the Ravens in a game where they were actually outgained by 200 yards of offense.The season is wacky enough, but now we have , , and -- star quarterbacks -- all having i sues at times throwing the football, with Brady, Rodgers and Jackson all having problems in Week 6.The remain in the top spot this week as they head to their bye, but they need to figure out why they have second-half i sues if they are truly going to be a Super Bowl team. They've scored just 22 points in the second halves of their games, yet they are 6-0. At least in a league where most teams are hovering near .500, the Eagles have shown they are deserving of the top spot. That isn't as shocking as some of the things we've seen so far. Biggest Movers 7 Jets 8 Buccaneers RkTeams ChgRcrd 1 One area they have to fix is their run defense. They are giving up 5.0 yards per rush, which isn't a good thing when you are trying to win a division -- and even more. -- 3-0-0 2 Going to Kansas City and winning is big for down the road come playoff time. Von Miller made a big difference, which is why they paid him. -- 2-1-0 3 At 5-1, they lead the NFC North and have to be considered the favorite in the division now. They aren't always pretty, but Haydn Fleury Men Jersey they find ways to win games. 2 0-3-0 4 There is no shame in losing to the Bills, but they might be heading out on the road now in the postseason for a big game. The defense did limit the Bills to 24 points, which is a good sign going forward. 1 2-1-0 5 Break up the Giants. At 5-1, they are the shock of the league right now. The defense came up big against the Ravens. 3 1-2-0 6 They will be getting Dak Prescott back, which changes this team in a big way. Cooper Rush was OK, but he isn't Prescott. -- 2-1-0 7 Can you believe they are 4-2? Winning at Green Bay the way they did validates them as a potential playoff team. The defense is getting good. 7 1-2-0 8 They come off their bye with a real chance to take hold of the AFC South if they can beat the Colts. They beat them a few weeks ago, so it would give them a big advantage. 4 1-2-0 9 They are 4-2, but they still don't look right. The offense just isn't what we expected it to be. 4 1-2-0 10 At 3-3, they have played four games on the road. Now the schedule softens some in the next month. The offense came alive against the Saints. 6 1-2-0 11 They seemed to have worked out the i sues on offense, as they have won two straight. They can run the football, while the defense is improving. 6 1-2-0 12 They just haven't looked right this season. Now at 3-3, they are showing all of their flaws. When does it turn around? 8 2-1-0 13 That was a bad showing against the Falcons. The schedule was tough with two straight in the Eastern time zone Greg McKegg Men Jersey , but they are better than that. 6 3-0-0 14 They have a lot of i sues, and Aaron Rodgers is one of them right now. They can't score and the defense has run-game i sues. 5 2-1-0 15 They've won two straight as Matt Ryan rallied them against Jacksonville. They've also dealt with a lot of injuries, but some of those guys will be back soon. 4 2-1-0 16 The quarterback me s has really impacted this team. They have lost three straight games as they wait for Tua Tagovailoa to get back under center this week. 6 3-0-0 17 The defense is finally playing well, but the offense didn't do enough in the lo s to the Giants. They are a Marcus Kruger Kids Jersey tough team to figure out. 6 2-1-0 18 They actually got the offense going in the second half against Carolina. That's progre s for a team that has struggled with it. 3 1-2-0 19 They are tied for the division lead in the NFC South. Beating the 49ers the way they did was impre sive, but they face a tough game at Cincinnati this week. 5 2-1-0 20 The defense let them down in the lo s to the Bengals, but that's been a story all season long. That unit has flopped. 2 2-1-0 21 They are 3-3, which is a tribute to coach Pete Carroll. Who saw that coming? The defense played well against the Cardinals, which was a nice change. 6 2-1-0 22 Their defense just isn't good enough right now. It doesn't help that Jacoby Bri sett isn't helping at quarterback. 2 2-1-0 23 The offense is horrible. It's more than just Ru sell Wilson, but he's a big part of the problem. 2 0-3-0 24 This team is in big trouble. They gave out some big-money contract extensions, but they are 2-4 and struggling to score points. Ouch. 2 1-2-0 25 At 1-4, they come off their bye in desperation mode. They can't lose many more in a competitive division and hope to be a playoff team. 2 1-2-0 26 The defense showed well in limiting Tom Brady in their upset of the Bucs. That's the Steelers way. 3 2-1-0 27 They come off their bye with a road game at Las Vegas against the Raiders. They need to get more out of their offense going forward. 2 1-2-0 28 They have lost three straight games, all games they could have won. The defense let them down late against the Colts. 2 1-2-0 29 They will be without Carson Wentz for a while. That would mean it's Taylor Heinicke at quarterback, starting this week against the Packers. 3 2-1-0 30 They can't score enough. It's that simple. The pa sing game is too limited. 2 0-3- Lee Stempniak Jersey 0 31 They come off their bye with a tough game at Dallas against the Cowboys. They better hope they used the bye to find a defense. 1 2-1-0 32 The coaching change gave them some life early against the Rams, but they just aren't good enough. They lack talent, so will they have a fire sale to get picks? 1 0-3-0

      Mikel Arteta celebrates great night as ruthless Arsenal demolish Blades
      Door lovelystyle
      Arsenal bo s Mikel Arteta described his sides 6-0 thrashing of Sheffield United as a great night as they climbed to within two points of leaders Liverpool.The Gunners dominated from start to finish against a Blades team who looked well beaten after Martin Odegaard, Jayden Bogle Nick Pivetta Jersey s own goal and Gabriel Martinelli had put them 3-0 behind inside 13 minutes.Kai Havertz and Declan Rice put the irrepre sible Londoners 5-0 ahead at half-time and Ben White crashed home their sixth before the hour mark.Arteta, whose sides seventh straight league victory saw them become the first English league side to win three consecutive away games by five or more goals, said: It was a great night.The way we started made a difference. We were really aggre sive and positive and we showed real quality in the final third to take the game into a great position for us.Then we maintained the rhythm, maintained the hunger and I love that about the team.Arsenal struck their fifth goal in the 39th minute, Dave Cash Jersey the earliest an away side has had a five-goal margin in Premier League history.But Arteta warned his side they cannot afford to drop any points between now and the end of the season if they are to pip Liverpool and Manchester City to the title.The fact that were scoring many goals and not conceding is a great sign, but its about winning every game now, the Spaniard said.Thats the demands these two teams have set over the past few years and thats the task ahead of us.Arteta confirmed Bukayo Saka was withdrawn at half-time due to illne s, while Martinelli was Jimmy Foxx Jersey replaced by Gabriel Jesus in the 64th minute after cutting his foot.We need to wait and see how it is, added Arteta on Martinellis setback, which was the only downside to the evening.The Blades, 11 points adrift at the bottom of the table, are the first side in the top four tiers of English football to concede Larry Andersen Jersey five or more goals in four succe sive home games in all competitions.They have now shipped 72 goals in 26 league matches this season and bo s Chris Wilder, who returned for his second spell in charge in December, admitted a lot of his players were broken and damaged.Wilder said: Its been a painful season, a real painful one before me and through my period.Theres a lot of broken and damaged players out there because this is what the league can do to you, especially when youre off it and theyre on it. When you dont close the gap they make it look huge.Wilder said he may now turn to youth for the remainder of the season Oliver Arblaster made his Premier League debut off the bench against the Gunners but insisted his side would not be throwing in the towel.What youll notice and see a little bit more now is the introduction of the younger players because I thought we were better Philadelphia Phillies Jersey when they came on, Wilder added.(Andre) Brooks coming on, (Will) Osula and especially Arblaster coming on, that might be a route now.

      Carla Ward says a manager should be sacked for having relationship with a player
      Door lovelystyle
      Aston Villa bo s Carla Ward said a manager should be sacked for having a relationship with a player, calling it a complete abuse of power.Ward said it is the responsibility of managers to protect players and said Los Angeles Dodgers Jersey to cro s that line is unacceptable and it cant happen.The former Sheffield United and Birmingham City bo s said: It makes me very angry because we are here to set an environment and a comfortable place to work that the players feel safe, backed and looked after, so I just dont understand anyone that cro ses that line. You cant do it. It is a complete abuse of power.We are in a moment where there is a microscope on the womens game and people have taken advantage of certain positions, and I dont like that and I dont think it is right.Asked if a player-coach Ross Stripling Jersey relationship should be a sackable offence, Ward replied: Yes. One hundred per cent.The 40-year-old, who represented the likes of Sheffield United, Lincoln and Bristol Rovers during her playing days, said the po sible grey area of a player-coach relationship given it is not illegal, providing no minors are involved should be addre sed in contracts.She added: It is an unwritten rule, and I am sure teachers don Sandy Koufax Jersey t have it in their contracts. But given where we are at now, and people dont understand it, maybe put Duke Snid Jersey it in black and white so it is clear.Ward also said that players feel unable to report a potential i sue.It is the biggest problem because if you are the manager and you are cro sing that line, it is very difficult for anyone to report it, added Ward.Say, you have got a director of football, and they have done wrong, or are doing wrong, and you Russell Martin Jersey know that, and a head coach or manager does it, you cant go to that person because the first thing they will do is rip up your contract. I saw this as a player a lot.You hear things all the time and it infuriates me. The only way to clean up the game is to highlight it and get rid of it.

      Door lovelystyle
      Sheffield United have condemned the racist abuse received by Mason Mikko Koivu Jersey Holgate in the wake of Sundays game against Brighton.Holgate was sent off in the 13th minute for a reckle s thigh-high challenge on Kaoru Mitoma, with the VAR advising referee Stuart Attwell to upgrade an initial Devan Dubnyk Jersey yellow card to red.Brighton went on to win 5-0 at Bramall Lane and Holgate subsequently received racist abuse on social media which he has shared on his Instagram account.I can only apologise for letting my team-mates, club + fans down on the weekend & have done so this week personally, Holgate wrote.However, the last 48 Jared Spurgeon Jersey hours have been difficult to take the constant racist abuse acro s my social media here are some of the me sages!As a sport + society we need to do more and there needs to be consequences for Racism!Holgates club said in a statement: Erik Haula Jersey Sheffield United condemn, in the strongest po sible terms, the racist abuse received by Mason Holgate following Sundays Premier League fixture against Brighton Darcy Kuemper Jersey and Hove Albion.We will support Mason and applaud him bringing this to light on social media.

      Erik ten Hag very proud after Manchester United stalemate at Liverpool
      Door lovelystyle
      Erik ten Hag was proud of Manchester Uniteds dogged display in a hard-fought 0-0 draw at Anfield that ended with Liverpool skipper Virgil van Dijk claiming only one team tried to win.All eyes Kyle Gibson Jersey were on Anfield as the bitter rivals went toe-to-toe on Sunday, with Jurgen Klopps men looking to return to the Premier League summit as the visitors tried to stop the rot.Liverpool had an eye-watering 34 shots acro s the match and United goalkeeper Andre Onana made eight saves, but the hosts could not find a way through.The tense clash ended scorele s and frustrated skipper Van Dijk said United are buzzing to have left with a point.If you see how we played the game, how we obviously had most of the ball and created some opportunities, I think there was only one team that were trying to win the game, the centre-back told Sky Sports.Unfortunately, it didnt happen. So, thats why its frustrating because we want to win every game of course, but especially if we play against a team like them.United manager Ten Hag brushed aside his fellow Dutchmans comment, simply saying in response that its Bert Blyleven Jersey his opinion.The Red Devils bo s also gave little away when it came to his view on Diogo Dalots sending off for a pair of quickfire bookings for di sent, saying I will leave the judgement to you.But Ten Hag was more forthcoming when it came to his sides reaction to their alarming back-to-back Old Trafford defeats to Bournemouth and Bayern Munich.We should have taken more of the ball regains three or four pa ses in where we are capable of and then we could have even hurt the opponent even more, the Dutchman said.But all over in the end, you have to conclude, we had the best chances from open play for Rasmus Hojlund and (Alejandro) Garnacho.I said that Taylor Rogers Jersey after the game in the dre sing room Im very proud of this team. We should do this more often. I said this.For instance, Newcastle was also a tough game, we make one mistake, we switch off and concede the goal.But when you stay in the game, when you are disciplined in your game plan, finally it opens up and you can take your chances or get two, three, four pa ses in after the ball regains, get the switches in and then you can really be more dominant in the game.United end the weekend seventh in the Premier League and the end of Liverpools 100 per cent home record this season means they are sat in second.Arsenals 2-0 win against Brighton in the early kick-off saw them go top and, while claiming it is too early Ervin Santana Jersey to talk about the title, bo s Jurgen Klopp saw promising signs from his side on Sunday.Of course we can improve and now we are in a situation all of a sudden where you are really disappointed when you draw against United, the Liverpool manager said.Thats just its a bit strange but its how it is so its all OK, we are in the position we belong and from here we go and we will see.We have our injuries as well. Nobody speaks about our injuries, but we still have them and it doesnt help obviously with the amount of games especially.It will be really tough and my boys for me today looked like they are really ready C. J. Cron Jersey just to give it a proper try and then we will see what that means exactly.But for today, if you take the right things out of this game then this was a super important game because the counter pre s was the best we played with this group.
