SANTA CLARA http://www.jaguarsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-quincy-williams-ii-jersey , Calif. (AP)Coach Pete Carroll and the Seattle Seahawks have a lot bigger worries than wondering if the San Francisco 49ers are ready to make a quarterback switch to Jimmy Garoppolo. With the Seahawks (6-4) having lost two out of three games to remain behind the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC West and missing several key defensive players, led by cornerback Richard Sherman and safety Kam Chancellor, they are focused on getting their season going in the right direction headed into Sunday’s game at San Francisco (1-9). So the fact the 49ers are sticking with rookie C.J. Beathard for at least one more week instead of turning the reins over to the quarterback of the future, Garoppolo, didn’t change a thing for the Seahawks. ”We’re just preparing for the 49ers,” Carroll said. ”They’ve got a style of offense, they’ve got really good players that do what they do. Whoever’s triggering it from the quarterback spot, we’re going to go play football.” The Seahawks are usually at their best at this time of year, going 34-9 after the start of November over the past five seasons to overcome some slow starts and get into position for a playoff run. But that has not been the case this season. Seattle lost at home to Washington three weeks ago and then this past Monday at home to the Falcons as the injuries have taken a toll. ”November and December have been good months for us,” Carroll said. ”And that’s kind of where we are right now. Unfortunately we’re in the same situation. I wish we were ahead of those numbers, but we’re kind of in the same spot.” The 49ers are in a far different situation, but at least have the good feeling of coming off a win Ryquell Armstead Jersey , having beaten the Giants 31-21 before the bye to avoid a possible winless season. ”We’re 1-9. It’s not like we’re doing cartwheels saying we’ve got this figured out,” general manager John Lynch said. ”We have a long way to go.” Here are some other things to watch: BEATHARD’S CHANCE: The 49ers are sticking with Beathard while Garoppolo still learns the offense, in part because of how well he played two weeks ago before the bye in San Francisco’s first win. Beathard completed 19 of 25 passes for 288 yards and two touchdowns in a 31-21 win. ”C.J. did play his best football last week, which definitely, to me, made the decision easier,” coach Kyle Shanahan said. RUNNING ROTATION: The Seahawks’ underperforming run game will get another remodel this week. With Mike Davis likely out due to a groin injury, the Seahawks will again turn to the combo of Thomas Rawls and Eddie Lacy to try and get something started on the ground. Seattle ranks 17th in rushing, but Wilson is the leading rusher and the running backs have provided very little since rookie Chris Carson went down with an ankle injury early in the season. Rawls was an unexpected scratch before last Monday’s game against Atlanta. He’s averaging 2.6 yards per carry. Lacy is averaging 2.5 yards per carry. ”I remain the same and I always stay true. I come out here and continue to work, continue to lead,” Rawls said. HAPPY HYDE: San Francisco running back Carlos Hyde is having one of his most productive seasons. He’s topped 100 yards from scrimmage the past two games and already has career highs with 42 catches for 274 yards. Hyde has 36 carries for 227 yards in his past two games against Seattle. ”He can do anything,” Carroll said. ”He can run any kind style of football. Whether it’s gap scheme or zone scheme http://www.jaguarsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-gardner-minshew-ii-jersey , he can do it all. He’s done a great job coming out of the backfield.” CORNERING THE MARKET: Seattle rookie cornerback Shaquill Griffin is expected out due to a concussion suffered against the Falcons. Seattle felt fortunate to sign Byron Maxwell as a free agent last week following the loss of Sherman for the season with an Achilles tendon injury. But Maxwell was thrust into a heavy workload in his first game back with Seattle, playing 59 of 62 possible defensive snaps.Carroll felt Maxwell played well, outside of one pass interference penalty. ”He looked like the guy that we hoped he would look like, and that is without a whole lot of preparation,” Carroll said. ”He really kicked right back into the technique and the style of play.” SEARCHING FOR SAFETIES: The 49ers have been decimated by injuries at safety, with starters Jaquiski Tartt and Jimmie Ward both being sidelined by broken arms. Rookie Adrian Colbert stepped in and played extremely well last game despite a broken thumb, but will be sidelined this week after having surgery. Antone Exum and Dexter McCoil are next up to play alongside Eric Reid, who has moved back to safety after a short stint as a linebacker. — AP Sports Writer Tim Booth in Seattle contributed to this report — ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP)Jameis Winston’s sore throwing shoulder held up fine. The same can’t be said for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who continue to find ways to collapse. A week after spraining his right shoulder, Winston had 384 yards passing – the second-most of his career – and three touchdowns. That still wasn’t enough in a game the Buccaneers gave up 10 points – including Stephen Hauschka’s 30-yard field goal with 14 seconds left – in the final 2:28 of a 30-27 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. ”It’s tough to lose,” was Winston’s lone response when asked how he felt physically. ”We fight. We know we’ve got it in us Christian Wilkins Jersey ,” Winston added, before holding up four fingers for effect. ”We just have to find a way to do it for four quarters,” he said. ”Four quarters is what the game is. Not just two. Not just three. Four.” Tampa Bay (2-4) found a different way to lose in dropping its third straight game. Last week, the Bucs were unable to overcome Winston being hurt on the opening drive, or after falling behind 31-0 in a 38-33 loss at Arizona. Two weeks earlier, former kicker Nick Folk missed three field-goal attempts in a 19-14 loss to New England. Against Buffalo, Winston rallied the Bucs from a 17-6 deficit to take a 27-20 lead on a 12-yard touchdown pass to Mike Evans with 3:14 remaining. Then the bottom fell out. Tampa Bay’s defense sagged by allowing the Bills to tie the game on a three-play, 75-yard drive capped by LeSean McCoy’s 7-yard run. Then the offense unraveled on its first play from scrimmage of its next possession. Bills rookie cornerback Tre’Davious White stripped receiver Adam Humphries of the ball and recovered it at Tampa Bay’s 33 to set up Hauschka’s field goal. ”We dug in, we’ve got to dig out,” coach Dirk Koetter said. ”I believe in those guys.We didn’t do enough today. And all we can do is come back next week.” The Bucs defense, which entered the game with the NFL’s second-worse against the pass, once again proved to be a weak link. Buffalo posted season highs in points http://www.dolphinsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-michael-deiter-jersey , yards offense (434) and yards passing. Tyrod Taylor finished 20 of 33 for 268 yards and a touchdown with an injury-depleted group of receivers. Deonte Thompson, who was signed on Tuesday, led Buffalo with 107 yards receiving. ”Just stay the course. Don’t blink. Don’t flinch,” defensive tackle Gerald McCoy said. ”Everybody else around us gets to sulk and do all this other stuff, but for us as a team, as coaches, we just have to go back to work.” Winston’s performance wasn’t without its blemishes. He turned the ball over twice over the final three possessions of the first half. Winston lost a fumble when he was sacked by Ryan Davis. He also threw an interception with 23 seconds left, when linebacker Matt Milano picked off a pass intended for Cameron Brate to give Buffalo the ball at the Bucs 26. Buffalo failed to score off both of Winston’s turnovers. ”This is a great chance for this team to show how resilient we are,” Winston said. ”I know we’re going to keep battling. We’ve got to find a way to win.” —
