The last time Geno Smith faced the Baltimore Ravens, he was in his 11th start as a rookie in 2013. Derrick Rose Knicks Jersey .He didnt fare very well, completing just 9 of 22 passes and throwing two interceptions as his New York Jets lost 19-3 in Baltimore.It was part of a forgettable rookie season for the quarterback, who completed just 55.8 percent of his passes and threw 21 interceptions vs. 12 touchdowns. He wasnt much better in his second season, which is why the Jets traded for Ryan Fitzpatrick in March 2015 and ended up making him the starter.However, with Fitzpatrick benched Wednesday, Smith is back at the helm -- at least for now.As the Jets (1-5) host the Ravens (3-3) on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET on CBS, his task is to try to spark an offense that ranks last in scoring (15.8 points per game) and No. 2 in turnovers (15).I felt it was time for a change, New York coach Todd Bowles said. We got up there in the turnover category. We hadnt put any points up. Were trying to get a spark somewhere, so I made the change.The Ravens hope they dont have to make a change at the same position.Quarterback Joe Flacco has been sacked 11 times over the past three games -- all losses -- and is dealing with a sore right shoulder that kept him out of practice Wednesday.I have a little shoulder soreness, Flacco said. A little bit of rest right now is probably the best thing.Coach John Harbaugh said Flacco still has a legitimate chance to play against the Jets. Backup Ryan Mallett would start if Flacco cannot.In two games filling in for an injured Flacco last season, Mallett completed 58 of 97 pass attempts (59.8 percent), with two touchdowns and two interceptions.Ryan (could be) a starter in this league, Harbaugh said. That will not be a problem if he plays. Ill feel very confident if Ryan Mallett is out there playing.That said, Harbaugh clearly would prefer his starter.Joe will be out there if he can be, the coach said. Theres no tougher guy than Joe. To me, he will be out there. Its my belief hell be out there.Considering the quarterback situations in this game, both teams will try to run the ball. However, the ground yardage might be hard to come by.The Ravens could be without top pass rusher Terrell Suggs (torn biceps), but they still have the top run defense in the NFL, giving up just 69.7 yards per game.The Jets running attack ranks 19th at just 92.5 yards per game. Part of that is a lack of carries -- Matt Forte and Bilal Powell have combined for just 28 the past two weeks. Smith, a more mobile quarterback than Fitzpatrick, could help that effort.The Jets also will hope Smith can take advantage of an injury-ravaged Ravens secondary and get the ball to top wide receiver Brandon Marshall, who has 27 receptions for 433 yards and two touchdowns.Baltimore hopes to have starting cornerback Jimmy Smith back in the lineup after he sustained a concussion last week against the Giants. But the secondary is also dealing with several other injuries: Tavon Young (undisclosed), Jerraud Powers (groin) and Shareece Wright (hamstring). The status of that trio is uncertain.The Ravens also will try to establish their running game, with Terrance West working to take some pressure off an offensive line that has not been able to protect Flacco. West has emerged as Baltimores top back, rushing for 208 yards on 32 carries in the past two games.Of course, the Jets have almost as staunch a run defense as the Ravens, ranking sixth in the NFL at 85.5 yards allowed per game. Baltimores reshuffled line will have to contend with Leonard Williams (five sacks) and company.Bowles plans to make a few personnel moves on defense, although he would not give any details.(None) that I feel like revealing, Bowles said, but Ive made some changes.One potential switch would be benching cornerback Buster Skrine, who was flagged for four penalties Monday night in New Yorks 28-3 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. He could be replaced by Marcus Williams, who has nine interceptions in 27 career games. Charles Oakley Knicks Jersey .5 seconds to play in the game, Kevin Love never stopped believing that they would come out of there with a win. Bernard King Knicks Jersey . World champions Tatiana Volosozhar and Maxim Trankov of Russia won the gold medal with 237.71 points, Moore-Towers and Moscovitch followed at 208.45 and Ksenia Stolbova and Fedor Klimov of Russia were third at 187. http://www.nbaknicksauthority.com/courtney-lee-knicks-jersey-c-6/ .H. -- Matt Kenseth made it 2 for 2 in the Chase, holding off teammate Kyle Busch to win Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. England have selected Nathan Hughes for the first time after including the Wasps back row in a provisional Elite Player Squad for this months pre-season training camp.Leicester hooker and club captain Tom Youngs, who won 31 caps under the previous regime, returns after being previously overlooked by head coach Eddie Jones, while Gloucester wing Johnny May is back from knee surgery.High-profile omissions from the 45 are centre Luther Burrell, fly-half Danny Cipriani and wing Chris Ashton.Fijian-born Hughes qualified for England on residency grounds in June and has been one of the Aviva Premierships most consistent performers since being plucked from obscurity by Wasps in 2013.The 25-year-old, who picked up a rugby ball for the first time eight years ago, is a powerful carrier and his appearance in the squad is an exciting development, even if there are misgivings over his work-rate and defence.Jones views him as a blindside flanker rather than No. 8, the position Billy Vunipola has filled with distinction.Youngs was a big-name omission from Jones maiden squad named in January having been first choice throughout last autumns World Cup, but he is one of four hookers among the 45.The jet-heeled May sustained a serious knee injury in December and has been unavailable since.Cipriani failed to impress during a pre-summer tour training camp in May, Burrell was replaced after only 28 minutes of the first Test against Australia in June due to defensive failings and Ashton continues to find himself out of fa
