Coming off back-to-back six win seasons, C. Adrian Peterson Vikings Jersey .J. Spiller knows league-wide expectations for the Buffalo Bills arent very high, but with a new coaching staff and a revamped offense, the running back is eager to get the season started and prove to the rest of the league that the team is a contender. “We dont have the respect of anybody right now, but thats fine,” Spiller said Monday night on TSN Drive. “Youve got to go out there and earn it and thats the only way we want it.” Coming off his first 1,000-yard season, the fourth year pro is excited about the new up-tempo offense new head coach Doug Marrone along with offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett are employing. Through the draft, the Bills were determined to upgrade their offense to complement the likes of Spiller and 1,000-yard receiver Stevie Johnson. This resulted in the selection of quarterback E.J. Manuel in the first round, and receivers Robert Woods and Marquise Goodwin in rounds two and three respectively. Spiller pointed out that this was the most speed he had seen on the offensive side of the ball in his four years in Buffalo and is excited about what the new additions could potentially bring to the table. “Im just looking forward to us having a balanced offence,” Spiller said. “With me being one of the playmakers, teams are going to have a lot of attention on me, but thats just going to open up for other guys to make plays.” The dynamic back, who along with Adrian Peterson led the league in yards per carry, said he was impressed with Goodwins performance – which included a 107-yard kickoff return for a touchdown – in the teams pre-season opener in Indianapolis. “I feel great because now I know teams wont be able to stack the box on us,” Spiller said of the 5-foot-9 receiver, who registered a 4.27, 40-yard dash at the NFL combine. “We got somebody finally that can really stretch the field and keep those safeties honest back there because any moment he can run by just about any DB.” Manuel, who was selected 16th overall also had a solid debut, completing 16 of 21 passes for 107 yards with one touchdown in Sundays 44-20 win. “Hes very poised, hes very confident in what he does,” Spiller said of the 6-foot-4, 237-pound QB. “He puts in a lot of hard work and preparation leading up to the games and even in practice he works at his craft very hard. Hes a leader, hes very confident in the huddle…Hes definitely going to be a great player.” Although he may have been overshadowed by Goodwin and Manuel, 41st overall pick Woods still managed four catches for 32 yards and Spiller said the former USC standout has looked great in practice and that his “game” speed seems faster than his 4.51, 40-time suggests. With the influx of young talent at key positions looking to mesh with a new coaching staff looking to implement a new offensive gameplan, Spiller said the Bills are in the process of “working out the kinks…and still trying to figure out what everyone does best.” Spiller said his body felt good at the end of last year despite the increased workload, but pointed out his focus is on the standings and not how many touches he receives. “Im not concerned about how many times I carry the ball. Im just worried about whether we win or lose the game because thats the only thing that matters at the end of the day.” Jerick McKinnon Vikings Jersey . -- Charlie Graham stopped 67 shots as the Belleville Bulls edged the visiting Guelph Storm 6-5 on Saturday in Ontario Hockey League action.

Paul Georges buzzer-beating 3-pointer at the end of the third quarter spurred a 21-4 run, finally sending Indiana past the Magic 97-87 in a tougher-than-expected opening night matchup.COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- Johnny Football and No. 10 Texas A&Ms offence dominated as usual against SMU. The difference on Saturday night was that the Aggies defence was solid, too. Johnny Manziel accounted for 346 yards with three touchdowns in just more than a half to help Texas A&M cruise to a 42-13 win over SMU. Texas A&M (3-1) was up 32-6 at halftime, and Manziel led the Aggies to a touchdown on their first drive of the third quarter before the Heisman Trophy winner went to the bench. The defence, which struggled as it dealt with suspensions early this season, had given up 36 points a game through the first three games. Defensive co-ordinator Mark Snyder made some personnel changes this week to help the Aggies improve. "Weve still got some areas weve got to work on, but a much better game from our side of the ball," Snyder said. "Were still a work in progress, for sure, but as long as I keep seeing improvement each week I think well be fine." It was a nice bounce-back game for Texas A&M after falling to top-ranked Alabama 49-42 last week. "I think we learned some valuable lessons a week ago," A&M coach Kevin Sumlin said. "I think we can get a little bit more confidence coming out of this game with our defence." Manziel had 244 yards passing with a touchdown and ran for 102 yards and two more scores. "We tried a little of everything," SMU coach June Jones said of trying to slow Manziel. "Hes an amazing player. You blitz him and hes accurate with the ball. You rush three, and he can scramble around and make it last forever. Hes a great college football player and hes in the perfect system." The Aggies have scored at least 40 points in each of their first four games for the first time in school history. Deshazor Everett returned a fumble 12 yards for a touchdown, and Ben Malena ran for 71 yards and two scores. He got things going for A&M with a 3-yard touchdown run in the first quarter. Former Texas quarterback Garrett Gilbert threw for 310 yards and a touchdown with an intterception for SMU (1-2). Everson Griffen Vikings Jersey. Despite the lopsided score, Texas A&Ms performance was far from flawless. The Aggies missed three straight PATs in the second quarter and were penalized 13 times for 114 yards. The Mustangs didnt play any cleaner, and piled up 16 penalties for 111 yards. The Aggies took a 14-0 lead when Manziel sidestepped a defender before high-stepping over another one en route to the end zone on a 7-yard run later in the first. Texas A&M recovered an onside kick and was driving again when a pass by Manziel was deflected and intercepted by Hayden Greenbauer. The Mustangs cut the lead to 14-3 when the ensuing drive resulted in a 42-yard field goal by Chase Hover. Manziel rolled out and found Malcome Kennedy on a 16-yard touchdown pass that extended the lead to 20-3 early in the second quarter. Taylor Bertolets kick failed. Manziels second 7-yard touchdown run made it 32-3 just more than three minutes later, but Bertolet missed again. Jeremiah Gaines fumbled after a reception on the first play of SMUs next drive, and Everett scooped it up and returned it for the score. Sumlin had seen enough of Bertolet and brought in Josh Lambo to attempt the PAT. But holder Drew Kaser fumbled the snap, and the kick was blocked. Sumlin said Bertolet and Lambo will compete for the job. A 47-yard field goal by Hover as time expired in the second quarter left A&M up 32-6 at halftime. Manziel had a nifty run on A&Ms first possession after halftime. He evaded three defenders that had hands on him to dash down the sideline on a 20-yard run. Malenas 1-yard run two plays later -- and a made extra point by Lambo -- made it 39-6. He was replaced by Matt Joeckel, who started A&Ms opener while Manziel served an NCAA suspension. Joeckel threw for 63 yards before Sumlin brought in freshman Kenny Hill. Lambos 40-yard field goal extended A&Ms lead to 42-6 near the end of the third quarter. A 31-yard touchdown reception by Keenan Holman made it 42-13 early in the fourth quarter. Holman finished with 10 receptions for 133 yards. Cheap NFL Jerseys ' ' '
