Minnesota Vikings (5-0), co Antworten

Great Britain captain Leon Smith is eyeing up a second successive Davis Cup final after victory over Serbia.With Andy Murray in an observer capacity in Belgrade, Kyle Edmund was Britains hero as the 21-year-old won both his singles rubbers to earn the defending champions a 3-2 victory at the Tasmajdan Stadium.Next up is a home tie against Argentina in Sept. where, with Murray having already said he is planning to take part, Britain would be favourites to advance to the final for the second successive year.Novembers victory over Belgium earned Britain a first Davis Cup title since 1936 and a repeat now looks a distinct possibility.Captain Smith, whose impressive record improved to 14 wins from 16 matches, said: We absolutely love Davis Cup, theyre amazing weekends. We love our home ties, we have so much fun together as a team.The journey keeps going and were enjoying it as much as the first tie we had as a team together, and we just want to keep going.A venue for the semifinal will be announced in due course, but it is likely to be Glasgow.Scotland has not staged a tie yet this season while Murray is hosting a charity event at the Hydro only three days after the tie on Sept. 16-18.Argentina defeated Italy to book their place in the last four, with a key factor being the return to their team of former U.S. Open champion Juan Martin del Potro, who was sidelined for two years by wrist problems.But their highest-ranked player is Federico Delbonis at 43 and, with Edmund having proved his ability to win key rubbers at World Group level and Britain boasting a superb record in doubles, there are little weaknesses in Great Britains armour.Del Potro coming back obviously is big for them, said Smith. Its going to be difficult but we are also a very good team.At 21, Great Britains Edmund is one of the leading young players in the world and showed great maturity in taking the No.1 role in Davis Cup for the first time in only his second tie.The Yorkshireman did not drop a set in two matches and dominated with his heavy forehand.There is no rest for Edmund, who heads to Toronto on Tuesday to play in qualifying for the Rogers Cup -- which Murray looks set to miss -- before making his Olympic debut in Rio.These matches give you confidence, Edmund said. Ive known that Ive been improving [but] at the same time, there will be stuff that I feel I could have done better [against Serbia]. You are always trying to find that extra one or two per cent to make you better. It never stops. People dont stop working. I certainly dont. Cheap Yeezy Free Shipping .

PAUL, Minn. LANDOVER, Md. -- Vernon Davis can retire his jump shot, but the rest of his all-around game comes in handy for the Washington Redskins.The veteran tight end caught a touchdown pass as the Redskins (4-2) won their fourth in a row, and he could be counted on to start again next Sunday at the Detroit Lions (3-3) if Jordan Reed misses another game. Reed is out with a concussion, his sixth documented one in his college and pro career.Davis isnt Reed, especially at 32, but he showed against the Philadelphia Eagles that he can fill in when necessary. Quarterback Kirk Cousins said it was no surprise how well Davis played in his first start since signing with his hometown team.He still has elite speed, hes a great blocker, Cousins said. While Jordan is one of our best players and helps make our offense go, credit Vernon Davis for enabling our offense to stay at a high level today with the way he played.Davis was flagged for excessive celebration after his touchdown for shooting the football like a basketball, which he didnt know was a penalty.That will never, ever, ever happen again, Davis said.Along with the 13-yard TD, Davis had a 37-yard reception as the Redskins balanced their offense to compensate for not having their top receiving target. Pierre Garcon had six catches for 77 yards, DeSean Jackson four catches for 55 yards, and Jamison Crowder three catches for 52 yards and a touchdown.Third-string tight end Niles Paul got more snaps than usual, too, but the onus was on Davis to fill Reeds spot. Davis, who won the Super Bowl with the Denver Broncos last season, said the only thing that changed in his preparation was making sure his stamina was good to play an entire game.Whatever they need me to do -- whether its blocking, catching passes, Ill do it, Davis said. Ill do it full speed and give it my all.Here are other things we learned from the Redskins 27-20 victory over the Eagles:`AGGRESSIVE SCHEDULE: Already on a two-game skid, the Eagles (3-2) now get to face the NFLs lone unbeaten team, the Minnesota Vikings (5-0), coming off their bye, when the teams meet at Philadelphia next Sunday. It doesnt get much easier after that, with games at divisioon rivals Dallas and the Giants, and then games against a trio of the NFCs elite: Atlanta, Seattle and Green Bay.dddddddddddd.The schedule gets aggressive fast, Eagles linebacker Jordan Hicks said.RUN FAST, YOUNG MEN: Alfred Morris, who? The Redskins seem to have found their groove in the running game with Matt Jones, Robert Kelley and Chris Thompson mixing up things.The trio combined for 231 yards and a touchdown against the Eagles as coach Jay Gruden and offensive coordinator Sean McVay have figured out how to maximize those backs different talents. Gruden called Jones a big plugger, and Kelley a great changeup.I think just us three guys coming together and believing in ourselves and going out there and doing things we know we can do, Kelly said. Thats why they got us here.ROUGH GOING, ROOK: Carson Wentz knows that defenses he faces the rest of the way have plenty of game video to watch and use for planning purposes.These are going to be great learning lessons for Carson, being able to mature as a quarterback, Eagles coach Doug Pederson said.After Wentz went 11 for 22 for 179 yards, directing an offense that produced a grand total of six points all afternoon against Washington, he acknowledged: Ive got to be better, especially late in the game.The Redskins might have provided a blue print for other Philadelphia opponents to follow. As Washington linebacker Ryan Kerrigan put it after getting two of his teams five sacks: We just knew we had to get pressure in his face.NOT MUCH DEFENSE: The Eagles defense needs to figure out ways to stop the run and get off the field on third downs. They gave up 230 yards on the ground on 33 carries, and allowed Washington to convert more than half of its third-down attempts, 7 of 13. Were not that good, where we can just go out there and show up, safety Malcolm Jenkins said, and just think were going to have success because of what weve done in the past.---AP Pro Football Writer Howard Fendrich contributed to this report.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
