If there's ever going to be a changing of the guard in the A

Except when you look at the numbers that say Tom Brady doesn't lose to the Jaguars.Ever.Jacksonville had a 10-point lead at New England in the second half of the AFC championship game last January when Brady worked his magic, helped mightily by the Jaguars' discomfort being so close to making the Authentic Rodger Saffold Jersey Super Bowl. It shouldn't have been a surprise in this matchup: Brady now is 8-0 against the Jags, the only AFC team without a win against the five-time Super Bowl champion and three-time league MVP. He has 19 TDs and two interceptions against Jacksonville while completing more than 70 percent of his passes for more than 1,800 yards.So solving Brady, as it is for most teams, is a must for Jacksonville in this battle of opening-game winners that could wind up pivotal for the AFC playoffs."It's going to be an emotional environment," Brady said. "I think everyone, whenever you play some of the best teams, you want to see where you're measured up to, and that defense has been ranked very high all last year, and I could see why. We practiced against them. They were very good. They've got a lot of very talented players — some of the guys that are probably the best at their position. So, it's going to be a great environment for football."Brady has 224 career wins, one shy of the NFL record held by kicker Adam Vinatieri, whose Colts are at Washington.Jacksonville could be short-handed in a key area: running back Leonard Fournette has hamstring issues, and the Jags need a strong running game to keep Brady on the sideline.T.J. Yeldon would get the start if Fournette can't go."He has always been good," coach Doug Marrone says of Yeldon. "I think he is more explosive. He's stronger. He's elusive. I think he can carry a load of carries."The weekend began with Cincinnati's 34-23 home victory over Baltimore. Andy Dalton threw four touchdown passes in the first half — three to A.J. Green — to help the Bengals improve to 2-0. The Ravens are 1-1.Philadelphia (1-0) at Tampa Bay (1-0)One reason the Eagles had the NFC's best record in 2017 was a 6-2 road mark. They were sloppy yet victorious in their opener at home against Atlanta and haven't played since Sept. 6. Nick Foles gets the call at quarterback again with Carson Wentz still not ready, though Philly's running game with Jay Ajayi, who had two touchdowns last week, and strong defense could decide things.The Buccaneers come off an impressive upset win at New Orleans in which Ryan Fitzpatrick showed why he has been a quality fill-in passer for years. He threw for a career-best 417 yards, four TDs, and had no interceptions against the Saints. He also scored a rushing TD.FitzMagic indeed.Kansas City (1-0) at Pittsburgh (0-0-1)As ugly as the Steelers' performance was in the rain in Cleveland, that's how pretty Chiefs fan think their team's work was in Los Angeles.But this is a nightmare matchup for KC: The Steelers have won seven of the last eight vs. the Chiefs, who are 0-6 in Pittsburgh since 1986. Plus, the Steelers are 15-2 in home openers at Heinz Field.Two of the NFL's most dynamic wideouts go at it here: All-Pro Antonio Brown for Pittsburgh, WR-KR Tyreek Hill for Kansas City. Don't take your eyes off the field.Minnesota (1-0) at Green Bay (1-0)Right up until kickoff Youth Rob Havenstein Jersey , the fans at Lambeau Field will be holding their breath to see if Aaron Rodgers can go. Green Bay is in massive trouble if he can't, as last week's heroic performance by A-Rod in the comeback victory over Chicago showed."Yeah, well, you know he walks on water, so I'm sure he's going to play," Minnesota coach Mike Zimmer said.The Vikings aren't the Bears and won't likely be playing passively if they get a lead. Not with that dynamic defense that handed Jimmy Garoppolo his first pro defeat in the opener.Carolina (1-0) at Atlanta (0-1)Not only did the Falcons falter in Philly in their opener, they had two significant long-term injuries with safety Keanu Neal and linebacker Deion Jones. The defense kept them in the Eagles game while Matt Ryan struggled. Sure, he completed 10 passes for 169 yards to Julio Jones, but Ryan generally was off the mark.Carolina has its own injury woes, losing star TE Greg Olsen with a foot problem. Its defense was super stingy against Dallas, with LB Luke Kuechly in on 13 tackles.Miami (1-0) at New York Jets (1-0)Barring a tie — and we all know those never happen in the NFL, right? — one of these teams will be a surprising 2-0 Sunday night.The Dolphins come off the longest NFL game since the 1970 merger, outlasting Tennessee in 7 hours, 8 minutes, including 3:59 in multiple weather delays. RB Frank Gore has 14,087 career yards rushing and needs 15 to surpass the Jets' greatest runner, Curtis Martin (14,101), for fourth place on the NFL's list.Sam Darnold threw a pick-6 on his first pro attempt, then reversed things with aplomb at Detroit. The Jets' defense deserves the highest accolades for making Matthew Stafford look like an inept rookie, something Darnold didn't resemble beyond that opening pass.Cleveland (0-0-1) at New Orleans (0-1)Oh yeah, they do have ties, which for the Browns is a monumental achievement considering they lost all 16 games in 2017 and were 1-15 the previous year. Oddly, the Browns overwhelmingly lead this series 13-4, winning five of the last six meetings.WR Michael Thomas had a Saints single-game record 16 catches last week for 180 yards and a score. Drew Brees will target him often http://www.ramsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-john-sullivan-jersey , sometimes against rookie Denzel Ward, who had two picks of Ben Roethlisberger in the opener.Arizona (0-1) at Los Angeles Rams (1-0)All seven of the new head coaches lost last week, none more distressingly than Arizona's Steve Wilks at home against Washington. QB Sam Bradford, the top overall draft choice by the Rams in 2010, now is the Cardinals' starter, and he has an all-time great receiver in Larry Fitzgerald. Yet Arizona was outclassed in its first game for Wilks.No such problems for the Rams, who looked strong in all phases at Oakland. A worry, though, is losing All-Pro kick returner Pharoh Cooper to an ankle injury.Oakland (0-1) at Denver (1-0)The glow from the return of Jon Gruden as coach will fade into the Mile High air if the Raiders put forth another mediocre showing in this bitter rivalry. Oakland struggled in the second half in falling to the Rams, with only TE Jared Cook a consistent positive with nine catches for a career-best 180 yards. The defense clearly missed Khalil Mack.Von Miller was a terror against Seattle: Miller had three sacks, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery. He's one of three active players (Robert Quinn, Terrell Suggs) with two career games with at least three sacks and two forced fumbles.In all, Jon Gruden's teams are 1-9 against the Broncos, with the one win coming in Oakland in 2001.Indianapolis (0-1) at Washington (1-0)The last time Frank Reich coached in a game that counted, he helped Philly win a Super Bowl. His Colts blew a big lead at home to Cincinnati, but at least Andrew Luck is back behind center. And Luck likes the look of Redskins burgundy: He threw for 370 yards, five TDs and one interception in his only previous game vs. Washington.RB Adrian Peterson moved into 10th place all-time in rushing yards after gaining 96 last week at Arizona. Washington's defense was stout and ranks second overall.Houston (0-1) at Tennessee (0-1)After their long, weather-related wait to eventually lose in Miami, and a right elbow injury to Marcus Mariota, the Titans could use a boost in a key early season AFC South game. Mariota should play for new coach Mike Vrabel, who was an assistant in Houston the last four years under Bill O'Brien.The Texans have won nine of the last 12 against Tennessee, and O'Brien is 6-2 against the Titans. Houston lost at New England last week, but kept things close.L.A. Chargers (0-1) at Buffalo (0-1)So, first-round pick Josh Allen will start and hope to avoid another debacle after the 47-3 defeat at Baltimore. Allen will have a long leash. Remember, Buffalo's other QB Cory Littleton Jersey , Nathan Peterman, threw five first-half interceptions in his start against the Chargers last year. He was just about as bad against the Ravens.The Chargers have won three straight and 17 of the past 22 meetings. They outscored the Bills by 113-44 in those three victories.Detroit (0-1) at San Francisco (0-1)It's impossible to fathom Stafford being as awful again. He threw four picks, one returned for a touchdown by the Jets. His passes were off the mark most of the game.Now that 49ers QB Garoppolo has lost a game, maybe the expectations in the Bay Area can be tamped down a bit. Keep a watch out for DL DeForest Buckner (2 1/2 sacks at Minnesota) and LB Fred Warner, who led all rookies with 12 tackles last week and forced a fumble.New York Giants (0-1) at Dallas (0-1)Easy to understand why the NFL keeps scheduling this matchup in prime time and why the broadcasting network loves it: big audiences. This year's faceoff doesn't have all that much charm considering both teams stumbled, particularly with the ball, in losing openers.Of prime interest will be the running backs, second overall pick Saquon Barkley, who excited Giants fans with his 68-yard TD burst in his debut, and Dallas star Zeke Elliott.Seattle (0-1) at Chicago (0-1), Monday nightSo the two night games in the second week of the schedule feature a combined record of 0-4. YAWN!Both teams lost close ones on the road, with the Bears infamously blowing a 20-point lead at Green Bay to a hobbled Rodgers. Seattle gave up 475 yards at Denver and the usually slippery Russell Wilson was sacked six times. Coach Vance Joseph said Monday "everything's being considered right now" when asked if he's contemplating lineup changes or taking over the play-calling from defensive coordinator Joe Woods."It's all being considered. We're still watching the tape to figure out what's the best course of action, but it's all being considered," Joseph said a day after the Broncos' 34-16 loss to the New York Jets in which they allowed 512 yards, 343 on the ground.Cornerback Chris Harris Jr. said he has no inkling of the changes in store, except that "we've got to play better, we've got to execute better as a defense, play with more awareness. They gave us a whole bunch of new looks in the run game that we've got to be prepared for in the future and try to clean up all of the mistakes."Harris said he's still confident in Woods."Oh yeah, we just watched the game and I can honestly say he had probably one or two bad calls," Harris said. "The rest is just poor execution."The Broncos (2-3) are mired in a three-game skid with the unbeaten Los Angeles Rams (5-0) coming in next week. This marks the return of Wade Phillips, whose contract wasn't renewed last year after he molded a championship defense in Denver.Phillips left because the Broncos wanted to promote Woods from secondary coach, but Woods hasn't had similar success.After cornerback Bradley Roby surrendered two long TD passes Sunday, NBC analyst Tony Dungy declared, "The 'No Fly Zone' is dead."Denver's defensive dominance is history, too.Despite the efforts of Harris and end Derek Wolfe Authentic Ndamukong Suh Jersey , who had his first career interception Sunday, the Broncos have one of the worst defenses in the league 鈥?they're ranked 26th overall and 30th against the run.Star linebacker Von Miller has been quiet since a three-sack opener and hasn't come close to a sack in three weeks, but it's Roby's struggles that have been the most notable.The Broncos traded Aqib Talib to the Rams last offseason to clear both salary cap space and room for Roby, who got a pay raise this season from about $1 million to $8.526 million in the final season of his rookie contract.Roby's adjustment from nickel cornerback to starter has been an arduous one.After being criticized all season for giving too much cushion to the receivers, Roby allowed a 76-yard touchdown catch by Robby Anderson and was one of two unblocked defenders on Isaiah Crowell's 77-yard touchdown run Sunday.Afterward, Roby said ups and downs come with the position."I have confidence because I know my job is hard, I know that I'm always in man coverage without a lot of help," Roby said.Asked if he'd prefer more zone coverage to help him out, Roby said, "I don't want to comment on that."Joseph said Roby has to play more confidently: "That's part of being an NFL starter. They go at you, they make a play or two and you have to go back out there and battle. And if you don't it looks like that."Roby hasn't developed the short memory necessary for a starting NFL cornerback."As a starting corner every play can be a big play," Joseph said. "That makes it a difficult position in this league because it's a passing league, obviously, and if you're not making plays on the ball, every play can be a big play."The Broncos' defensive troubles are exacerbated by an offense that's turning the ball over too often and not finishing drives in the red zone.Quarterback Case Keenum ranks 30th in the league with a passer rating of 78.1. He has just five touchdown throws and his seven interceptions match the total he had all of last year with Minnesota.The Broncos also got off to a good start last year only to tumble into a two-month funk, and linebacker Todd Davis said he's confident this team can turn things around to prevent another losing season."Absolutely, we definitely have the guys in this locker room that care about our team being great. So, I think we definitely have the willpower to turn this whole ship around," Davis said. "And that's what we're going to do this week is turn this whole thing around."Instead of reviewing the game film by position groups as they usually do, Denver's entire defense watched it together Monday with Woods leading the session."We're making everything open and honest about what happened and why it happened, so it keeps us all on the same wavelength," Davis said. "We're just trying to get back to playing our brand of football."Notes: Ace Kyle Freeland isn't the only one who didn't get a chance to take the mound in the Colorado Rockies' best-of-five NL Division Series sweep at the hands of the Milwaukee Brewers. Davis said he was slated to throw out the ceremonial first pitch Monday night in Game 4.
