    Wednesday, October 31, 2018 | Hoag Performance Center | Costa Mesa, Calif. LOS ANGELES CHARGERS HEAD COACH ANTHONY LYNN Opening Statement: “Good afternoon. I tell you, watching [Seahawks Head] Coach [Pete] Carroll, I've known him for a long time. His whole coaching staff, I've either played with or played for. It's a really good coaching staff. Right now, they are doing a heck of a job. I think they are the hottest team in the NFL right now. They have won four out of last five. They are doing it collectively in all three phases — and offensively, they are rushing the ball better than anybody the last five weeks and more rush attempts, that's kind of their formula. Defensively, they are sixth in the league and No. 2 in takeaways. That's something I know he emphasizes a lot. Special teams-wise, they have one of the best returners in the game. He was an All-Pro the last three years. I'm excited to go over there and play them at their place. It's going to be a heck of a challenge for us, our coaching staff and our players, but this is what we need right now. We think we're getting better as a football team and this is going to be one hell of a test.” On DE Joey Bosa: “Joey is going to do some things on the side, but he won't be a part of any team activities today, no.” On the Seattle running game: “Well, you know, their offensive line is powerful.

  • Nfl Nicknames
    Superstitions, Cont’d. T Daniel Loper, Tennessee Puts his equipment on left to right in game order for every practice and game. QB Peyton Manning, Indianapolis Reads the game program cover to cover before every game. RB Moran Norris, San Francisco Does not walk under the cross bars before games. FB Mike Sellers, Washington Does not eat before a game, even if it’s a night game. WR Maurice Stovall, Tampa Bay Gets his hair cut every Friday and watches a Bruce Lee movie before every game. CB Charles Tillman, Chicago Has the same person stretch him and tape him. DE Jason Taylor, Miami Does everything from right to left. K Lawrence Tynes, Giants Washes his car before every home game. LB Brian Urlacher, Chicago Eats a couple of chocolate chip cookies before every game. NFL NICKNAMES “Peanut” may not be the first nickname that usually comes to mind for an NFL player, but that’s exactly the name Chicago Bears corner back CHARLES TILLMAN has gone by since childhood. But the nicknames get even more creative — Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback BYRON LEFTWICH gave his teammate MAURICE JONES-DREW the nickname “Pinball” after the way defenders bounced off the running back during training camp last year. Ranging in origin from athletic ability to size or demeanor, these nicknames give a creative insight into the players they have been given to. Here are some other interesting NFL player nicknames: PLAYER NICKNAME DERIVATION Anthony Adams, Chi. “Double A” Teammates say he moves constantly, just like the Energizer Bunny. Keith Adams, Miami “The Bullet” Runs down the field as fast as he can and zeroes in on his target.

  • Sports Group of the Year: Akin Gump by Zachary Zagger
    Portfolio Media. Inc. | 111 West 19th Street, 5th Floor | New York, NY 10011 | www.law360.com Phone: +1 646 783 7100 | Fax: +1 646 783 7161 | [email protected] Sports Group Of The Year: Akin Gump By Zachary Zagger Law360, New York (February 6, 2017, 3:04 PM EST) -- Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP had a busy 2016 guiding the NFL to some major labor wins that confirmed the commissioner’s authority, including an arbitration decision upholding the commissioner’s new player personal conduct policy, earning the firm a spot as one of Law360’s Practice Groups of the Year. As a go-to law firm for the NFL, Akin Gump was involved in a trio of labor disputes that came to conclusion last year: Deflategate, involving New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady; a case over a suspension of Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson; and a grievance over the player personal conduct policy issued by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in 2014. All three cases ended in favor of the league and Goodell, setting strong precedent for the NFL, and to some extent other professional leagues, moving forward confirming the commissioner’s authority to discipline players under the collective bargaining agreement. “Taken together all three were pretty strong endorsements of the commissioner’s authority,” Akin Gump partner Daniel L. Nash told Law360. “The reason for that is a labor law principle that essentially, the parties to a collective bargaining agreement have a right to negotiate how things are handled. In each of the cases, both the courts and the arbitrator said this is what the parties bargained for and the labor laws require that the bargain be enforced.” While the Brady and Peterson cases grabbed a number of headlines, Akin Gump was integral in guiding the league to a win in a lesser-publicized dispute, in which the players union filed a grievance over a new player personal conduct policy issued in 2014.

  • Seattle Seahawks Continue to Fly High Under Russell Wilson
    Seattle Seahawks Continue to Fly High Under Russell Wilson Author : alyssamichelle After getting off to a bumpy start going 3-3 in their first six games the Seattle Seahawks will have a chance this Sunday to claim the number one spot in the NFC West. Last Sunday the Seahawks (10-4) officially eliminated division rivals the San Francisco 49ers (7-7) from playoffs, their defense once again getting the best of Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers offense. Kaepernick was sacked six times for a loss of 36 yards in Seattle's 17-7 win. In the battle of young quarterbacks Kaepernick has been bested by Russell Wilson and company four out of five games including last years NFC championships. Only time will tell but fans could be witnessing the beginning of the next Tom Brady-Peyton Manning rivalry. When Kaepernick first took over for Alex Smith in 2012 he appeared to be the next big thing. Fast forward a couple years and Wilson now holds the record for most regular-season wins by a quarterback in their first three seasons and most importantly, a Super Bowl ring. While Kaepernick can be flashier at times, Wilson is more effective. Kaepernick has thrown for more yards this season, 3,051 compared to Wilson's 2,897, but Wilson has thrown for fewer interceptions, six compared to Kaepernick's 10, more touchdowns, 18 compared to Kaepernick's 16 and completes a higher percentage of his passes, 62.6 percent compared to 60.5. While the numbers slightly favor Wilson the biggest difference comes in the ability to get the job done in crunch time and win when your back is against the wall.
