  • Despite Inexperience, Broncos Confident in Rookie Linebacker Justin Hollins’ Versatility by Ryan O’Halloran Denver Post May 19, 2019
    Despite inexperience, Broncos confident in rookie linebacker Justin Hollins’ versatility By Ryan O’Halloran Denver Post May 19, 2019 He appeared in 52 games for Oregon. He was an outside linebacker, a defensive end, and an outside linebacker again. He played for three head coaches and three defensive coordinators. Justin Hollins saw a lot during his five years on the Ducks’ campus, but not what he experienced during the Broncos’ rookie camp last week. A chance to play inside linebacker. “It was mainly during the (East-West Shrine Game) that I played inside,” Hollins said. And that’s it. Hollins was the Defensive MVP of that game, one reason that the Broncos drafted him in the fifth round last month. He is working at outside linebacker in the Broncos’ base defense and inside linebacker in nickel. Outside, he can serve as a rotational player behind Von Miller and Bradley Chubb. Inside, he could join Todd Davis, Josey Jewell or an extra safety in covering the intermediate-to-deep middle part of the field. So how did this come about? The Broncos credit outside linebackers coach Brandon Staley. “(Staley) came to us with the idea,” defensive coordinator Ed Donatell said. “He thought he (Hollins) could get it done. He’s done a great job getting him ready. … Certainly, he can do both. But he might only do parts of each — maybe one full time and part of the other.” That’s why the Broncos view the experiment of moving Hollins around as reasonable. As Donatell said, they aren’t force-feeding Hollins the entire playbook at multiple positions and he is being taught the roles by the same person (Staley).

Cities across the cotintry compete for the right to host this prestigious event. The reputation of such an occasion has caused an increase in demand and price for tickets, making attendance nearly impossible for the average fan. As a result, the National Football League has implemented free events for local residents and out-of-town visitors. This, along with broadcasting the game, creates an inclusive environment for all fans, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of professional sports. This paper explores the growth of the Super Bowl from a novelty game to one of the country' s most popular professional sporting events. Acknowledgements First, and foremost, I would like to thank my parents for their unending support. Thank you for allowing me to try new things and learn from my mistakes. Most importantly, thank you for believing that I have the ability to achieve anything I desire. Second, I would like to thank my brother for being an incredible role model.

Batch, a nine-year NFL veteran and Pittsburgh-area native, starts in place of BEN ROETHLISBERGER, who underwent an emergency appendectomy on Sunday. Batch aims to lead the Steelers to their fourth consecutive Kickoff Weekend victory in the club’s first game following its Super Bowl XL championship. Culpepper, making his first start as a member of the Dolphins, can make history in 2006 by being the first player to lead both the AFC and NFC in touchdown passes for a season.

    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn SEATTLE SEAHAWKS Team History When the Seattle Seahawks took the field for the first time in the 1976 season, it marked the culmination of a quest for a National Football League franchise that had its roots in the Pacific Northwest metropolis as early as 1957. That is when discussion first began about the possibilities of constructing a domed stadium that would assure a major league sports franchise for the city. On June 4, 1974, the NFL awarded its 28th franchise to Seattle to play in the 64,984-seat Kingdome. A civic suggestion campaign netted 20,365 entries and 1,741 different names, but “Seahawks” was selected and announced on June 17, 1975. Just a little more than two months later, after a 27-day sale, the season ticket campaign was shut off with 59,000 tickets sold. On January 3, 1976, Jack Patera, who had been a Minnesota assistant coach, was named the team’s first head coach. The Seahawks finished 2-12 in 1976, when they played in the NFC, and 5-9 in 1977, when they moved into the AFC. The Seahawks had winning 9-7 records in both 1978 and 1979 and Patera was named NFL Coach of the Year the second year. The strike-shortened 1982 season proved to be a transitional year for all of pro football, but no club fit the transitional description better than the Seahawks. Patera was removed after six-plus years as head coach. Mike McCormack finished the season as interim head coach and then was replaced in 1983 by Chuck Knox, who guided the Seahawks to an 83-67-0 record in nine seasons up through the 1991 campaign.
