EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. Wilt Chamberlain 76ers Jerseys . -- The bye week is usually met with eagerness by NFL teams, that rare in-season opportunity to let the body heal and rest and give the mind a brief break from the game-planning and pressure to win.The Minnesota Vikings might as well have passed on theirs this year. They sure didnt put it to good use.After taking the leagues only perfect record into the week off, looking every bit the Super Bowl contender theyve been gearing up to be, the Vikings have been dismantled in consecutive defeats by Philadelphia and Chicago on the road.Both the Eagles and Bears used heavy pressure on quarterback Sam Bradford and clogged rushing lanes when the Vikings handed off the ball, stymieing an offense that was far from dominant in the first five games but confident, crisp and efficient enough to complement the dominant defense.The Eagles have emerged among the NFCs early-season elite, so that one wasnt such a stunner. The Bears, though, took one victory into the game on Monday night and racked up 403 total yards, the most allowed by the Vikings this year. That included 158 yards rushing.You just cant explain the way we havent played well these last two weeks, linebacker Chad Greenway said.As unexpected and, for a playoff-caliber team, inexcusable as this more-lopsided-than-the-score-indicated 20-10 loss was, the context and timing of the contest were not exactly in Minnesotas favor. As bad as the Bears had played before this, they had 10 days to prepare for a division foe. They also benefited from a fresh Jay Cutler, all but on his way out as the franchise quarterback with nothing to lose and a mind to prove his worth on a prime-time stage.Cutler is 9-5 in 14 career starts against the Vikings, his most victories against any team, including a sparkling 7-1 at Soldier Field. Coach Mike Zimmer offered scant insight about his teams performance in a terse postgame news conference, keeping his comments to a mere three minutes, but he credited Cutler for his play.We didnt make any plays. They made them all, Zimmer said.Last season, the Vikings ended a couple of ignominious losing streaks, but theyre still 2-14 on the road against Chicago since 2000 and 1-8 in their last nine Monday night games regardless of site. The coaches and players have changed, of course, but fans dont forget the Vikings are 10-21 in night games over the last decade.Success for NFL teams is as much about minimizing flaws as it is about seizing opportunities presented by the opponents weaknesses, and the Vikings have done an awful job of this for two straight weeks.The offensive line is squarely in the spotlight right now, with struggles at every position, particularly tackles T.J. Clemmings and Jake Long. The Vikings have allowed 11 sacks over the last two games, and Bradford has thusly been largely out of sync.We havent proven it yet. So I dont know if hopefuls the right word, right this second, Zimmer said when asked if he was optimistic about a rebound by the offensive line. Weve got to get it fixed, though.Bradford wasnt about to blame the blockers. He overthrew Stefon Diggs, a pass that wouldve been a 50-yard touchdown late in the first quarter after his best wide receiver badly beat Bears cornerback Tracy Porter on the route.Regardless of whats going on up front, I have to figure out a way to move the football down the field, Bradford said.The Vikings host another division foe, Detroit, this weekend.We just have to figure the way we did it, what the formula was those first five weeks, and do it, Bradford said.---AP NFL website: http://www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL coverage on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Charles Barkley Jersey . -- Ken Appleby made 32 saves for his first shutout of the season to lead the Oshawa Generals to a 2-0 win over the Belleville Bulls on Wednesday in Ontario Hockey League action.

Hargreaves began his career in 2008 with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and has played with the Edmonton Eskimos and last season with the Saskatchewan Roughriders. SAN DIEGO -- After having surgery on his left hand on Aug. 15, there was some doubt whether Mark Reynolds would play again this season.Not only did he come back on Aug. 31, but on Sunday, he hit a milestone, game-winning homer.Reynolds connected leading off the 10th inning and the Colorado Rockies beat the San Diego Padres 3-2 to salvage a split of a four-game series.It was the 250th homer of his career and 13th of the season.Its special. I never thought Id have one homer in the big leagues, let alone 250, Reynolds said. Its a pretty cool accomplishment. Itll be pretty neat to tell my grandkids one day: `Grandpa did something cool in the major leagues. Ive got another record, too, but I dont want to tell them about that one.Reynolds holds the big league record for strikeouts in a season, 223 in 2009.His homer came on a 2-2 pitch from Kevin Quackenbush (7-6).I played an 18-inning game here one time one time a couple years ago and that was no fun, he said. This one had all the makings of it. I was able to get a pitch there and barely get it out of here.Reynolds homered on a slider.I think he spun his slider middle up in the zone, and it doesnt matter who does that, that ball gets hit, especially Mark Reynolds, Padres manager Andy Green said.Sunday was his seventh game back after the surgery.I worked hard to get back. It depends on how much pain I can tolerate when I play, managing that and just doing what I can, whether its late-inning defense or pinch-hitting here or there, or playing, Reynolds said.Charlie Blackmon also homered for the Rockies, his 25th, and hit an RBI single.Jake McGee (2-3) pitched the ninth for the win. Addam Ottavino pitched the 10th for his fourth save in eight chances. Moses Malone 76ers Jerseys. Blackmon gave the Rockies a 2-0 lead with his homer leading off the fourth and an RBI single with two outs in the fifth. His home run came after San Diegos Edwin Jackson retired the first nine batters.Nick Hundley hit a leadoff double in the fifth and scored on Blackmons single. Blackmon got caught in a rundown to end the inning.Rockies right-hander Chad Bettis was cruising with a one-hit shutout before the Padres tied it at 2 in the sixth. Travis Jankowski doubled to left-center and scored on Wil Myers triple that rolled to the fence in right-center. Yangervis Solarte brought in Myers with a sacrifice fly.Jackson allowed two runs and five hits in six innings, struck out four and walked one.I didnt necessarily feel like I had my best stuff, as far as strength-wise, Jackson said. I think I couldve went out there for another inning, but its a two-nothing game. We have guys on the bench trying to come out and produce runs. Its a pitchers duel.Bettis went seven, allowing two runs and four hits, with five strikeouts and one walk.UP NEXTRockies: LHP Tyler Anderson (5-5, 3.35) is scheduled to start the opener of a three-game series at Arizona that starts Monday night. Shelby Miller (2-11, 6.89) is scheduled to start for Arizona.Padres: RHP Paul Clemens (2-5, 5.44) is scheduled to start the opener of a three-game series at San Francisco starting Monday night.
