The NFL has begun its recognition of the military this month, including nominees for the Salute to Service award.The award, presented by USAA, a leading insurance and financial services provider for current and former members of the military, veterans and their families, will recognize a league member who demonstrates exemplary commitment to honoring and supporting the military community.Among the nominees is Seahawks wide receiver Jermaine Kearse, who grew up on a military base near Seattle. Kearse recently launched the 15 to 1: The Jermaine Kearse Foundation, to support and inspire youth in military families.Being nominated by the Seahawks for the Salute to Service award is an honor and reinforces the importance of supporting our military, Kearse says. Its important to me because I grew up in a military family. Think about it, your parent gets deployed, and its a constant guessing game: Is my mom or dad going to come back? Thats real life.This stuff were doing here (playing in the NFL), this is cool, but when I think about that, what those kids are going through. Thats real life for these people.The other nominees: Arizonas Deone Buccanon; Atlantas Dan Quinn; Baltimores Steve Smith; Buffalos Richie Incognito; Carolinas Ron Rivera; Chicagos Jerrell Freeman; Cincinnatis Kyle Caskey; Clevelands Joe Thomas; Dallas Darren Woodson; Denvers DeMarcus Ware; Detroits Golden Tate; Green Bays Tom Bakken (assistant equipment manager); Houstons Brian Cushing; Indianapolis Pat McAfee; Jacksonvilles Blake Bortles; Kansas Citys Derrick Johnson; Los Angeles Jeff Fisher; Miamis Jamie Quadrozzi (game entertainment manager); Minnesotas Jeff Locke; New Englands Joe Cardona; New Orleans Drew Brees; Giants Mike Sullivan; Jets Eric Decker; Oaklands Jon Condo; Philadelphias Don Smolenski (team president); Pittsburgh Alejandro Villanueva; San Diegos Sean Lissemore; San Franciscos Garrett Celek; Tampa Bays Clinton McDonald; Tennessees Stormi Wagley (alumni cheerleader); and Washingtons Derrick Dockery.Buccaneers receiver Vincent Jackson was last years award recipient.---ROBYS BIG WEEK: Broncos cornerback Bradley Roby has been getting a lot of love lately.First, he received the NFLPAs Community MVP award for his community work, then he won the AFC defensive player of the week award for his performance Sunday against San Diego when he started in place of an injured Aqib Talib.For me to be honored off the field and then be honored on the field was kind of special to me, Roby said. I think thats the kind of a real life example that when I do things with good intentions in the community, sometimes you get rewarded for stuff like that on the field, as well.Im living right is really what it comes down to.Roby was honored by the players union after hosting a family fun night while raising money for academic achievement programs.Then, making his first start of the season, he had seven tackles, broke up two passes and had a 49-yard interception return for a touchdown in Denvers 27-19 win over the Chargers.---STAYING WIDE: The Green Bay Packers have been known in recent years for playing receivers in the backfield. The wrinkle is even more important this season with so many injuries at running back.But dont look for Jordy Nelson lining up alongside Aaron Rodgers any time soon.Were in deep, deep trouble, Nelson joked this week when asked if there was a package for him to get snaps in the backfield.How about a wildcat package?Were talking major issues, especially as a running back, he added.Randall Cobb has lined up in the backfield at times. Ty Montgomery has excelled in the role this season. Theyre shorter receivers who can create plays in traffic.The 6-foot-3 Nelson is a favorite target for Rodgers in the red zone, tied for the league lead with six receiving touchdowns.Maybe one day though, Nelson could try his hand at a trick play.I could play some quarterback. Maybe we could run a double-pass or something, he said.---AWESOME AJAYI: Dolphins running back Jay Ajayi rushed for 187 yards in 2015 as a rookie. Hardly the precursor to what he has done in his last two games.Ajayi enters Sundays matchup with the Jets -- and their staunch run defense -- coming off consecutive 200-yard rushing performances. He went for 204 yards on 25 carries in a win over Pittsburgh, and followed that with 214 on 29 rushes against Buffalo in another victory. Then Miami had its bye.He also could join Pro Football Hall of Famers O.J. Simpson (647 yards) and Walter Payton (604) as the only players in NFL history to rush for 600 yards in a three-game span. Ajayi has 418 yards.---AP Pro Football Writers Barry Wilner and Arnie Stapleton and Sports Writer Genaro C.

The home side created most of the chances but struggled to break down Braunschweigs resilient defence, resulting in the Bundesligas 1,000th scoreless draw. http://www.thefaclonsshoponline.com/Chris-lindstrom-falcons-jersey/ . Newcastle dominated in the early stages but City weathered the storm and then raised its game in extra time. Negredo broke the deadlock from close range after a simple move in the 99th minute before Dzeko took the ball round goalkeeper Tim Krul to seal the victory in the 105th. Calvin Ridley Jersey .

Chris Lindstrom Youth Jersey .com) - The women will also have a new champion at the Australian Open. Patience runs out this time of year in the NFL.The demise in less than a week of Jeff Fisher and Gus Bradley as coaches of their respective teams provided examples. Rams owner Stan Kroenke and Jaguars boss Shad Khan grew tired of waiting for the on-field product to match their successes away from football.Those two firings, even though Fisher led the Rams through a difficult transition from St. Louis to Los Angeles and Bradley was well-liked by Khan and his organization, might be just the beginning.Consider some of these men in charge to be either in the endangered species class or approaching it: Marvin Lewis, Mike McCoy, Rex Ryan, Todd Bowles, John Fox and Chuck Pagano. Its not inconceivable that Chip Kelly and Hue Jackson could wind up on the cutting room floor, despite what their backers, uh, owners have said in recent weeks.It might hardly seem fair for some of those men and, frankly, in many cases it isnt. Fox, Bowles and Ryan deserve more than two years at the helms of their current teams. Lewis and Pagano have brought consistent winning to their franchises at various times in their regimes and probably could do so again.As a wise scribe once wrote, the most important position on any NFL team is owner. When that owner has the last name of Rooney, Mara, Allen, Kraft or Bisciotti, panic doesnt set in. They tend to choose the correct coach for their team and then let him coach.The rewards have been Super Bowl trophies for all of them under coaches given the opportunity to build a team and help it grow into a champion.Khan tried that approach with Bradley, who helped put together some great Seattle defenses under Pete Carroll. The arrangement flopped and the ugly end came Sunday when the Jaguars blew a 21-20 lead at Houston and fell to 2-12, with nine straight defeats. Bradleys 14-48 record was the worst winning percentage (.225) of any NFL coach with at least 60 games.I thanked Gus Bradley today for his commitment to the Jacksonville Jaguars over the past four seasons, Khan said in a statement. As anyone close to our team knows, Gus gave his staff and players literally everything he had. Our players competed for Gus and I know they have great respect for him, as do I.Gus also represented the Jaguars, the Jacksonville coommunity and the NFL in nothing less than a first-class manner as our head coach.dddddddddddd That counts for a lot. It is unfortunately evident that we must make a change. I thought it would be best to do it immediately after todays result so Gus can step away, relax and regroup with his family during the Christmas and holiday season.Thanks for the thinking of me so kindly, boss.In truth, though, Khan showed remarkable patience this season with Bradley, whom he considered firing in October. The Jags spent big money in free agency and thought they could contend for the weak AFC Souths crown. Instead, theyre ahead of only Kellys lowly 49ers and Jacksons winless Browns in the entire league.Khans approach over the past four-plus years should be commended. He looked around at Mike Tomlin in Pittsburgh, Tom Coughlin in New York until the end of the 2015 season, and John Harbaugh in Baltimore and recognized the need for continuity.But when that continuity manifests itself in so many losses, with hefty signs of regression, its time to move on.Thats why Jackson, a very popular coach in Cleveland, might not be back if the Browns match the 2008 Lions at 0-16. Its why Kelly, despite his massive contract and only minor rumblings about change even as his 49ers have lost 13 in a row, could go.It must be remembered, though, that canning both of them after they were saddled with such undertalented rosters -- and then hit hard by injuries -- means starting over with a new coach. And still with a low number of high-level players in those two cities.Owners contemplating coaching changes also should look at the standings first. The division leaders in half of the eight divisions have long-tenured coaches. Of the other teams in strong contention to get to the postseason, four more of those have guys who have been in place a while.And just because their clubs are struggling this season doesnt mean Ron Rivera, Bruce Arians and Sean Payton dont know what theyre doing.Caution before acting rashly pays off. Rushing to judgment rarely does.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL [url=http://www.authenticwholesalejerse '
