The more skepticism LeSean McCoy hears about whether he can maintain his production·

The more skepticism LeSean McCoy hears about whether he can maintain his production after turning 30 Womens Brent Urban Jersey , the better the Buffalo running back feels.McCoy is using the questions as motivation in preparing to open his 10th NFL season on Sunday, when the Bills play at Baltimore."People take a lot of shots at running backs, 30 years old," McCoy said Wednesday. "So it's like something extra to drive me. If it's chasing different things, yardage, wins, you name it. Whatever it is, I'm always going to try to find something to get myself going."Little has managed to slow him down yet.And that includes the cloud of allegations directed at McCoy stemming from his former girlfriend, Delicia Cordon, being bloodied during a home invasion on July 10 at a residence the running back owns in suburban Atlanta. Police have not identified a suspect.Cordon filed a lawsuit last month accusing McCoy of breaching his duty to protect her by denying her access to a security system he recently had installed. She also alleged McCoy often "brutally beat his dog," and would also "aggressively, physically discipline and beat his young son."In his first comments since the lawsuit was filed, McCoy would only say, "I'll take care of that stuff," before adding he's focused solely on playing the Ravens.He was in an upbeat mood during a near 10-minute news conference. That was a switch from the last time McCoy spoke to reporters on the opening day of training camp in July, when he grew frustrated over questions regarding the home invasion.On Wednesday, McCoy was honored in being named an offensive captain following a player vote.McCoy expressed no concerns over whether he can continue being the focal point of a retooled offense breaking in a new quarterback, former backup Nathan Peterman, features a patchwork line and lacks proven threats beyond him and receiver Kelvin Benjamin.He's used to the role of carrying the load."To be honest Youth Maxx Williams Jersey , that's always been my thing since my third year," said McCoy, who led the NFL in yards rushing in 2013 in his fifth season in Philadelphia. "I've always been the focal guy on offense."McCoy is coming off a season in which he had 1,138 yards rushing 鈥?the fifth-highest total of his career 鈥?and 448 yards receiving and eight touchdowns and became the NFL's 30th player to top 10,000 yards rushing. With 10,092 yards rushing, he ranks 29th and is some 1,900 short reaching his objective of 12,000.The number is significant to McCoy because 13 of the 16 players to reach 12,000 yards rushing have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Former Indianapolis running back Edgerrin James (12,246 yards rushing) is one of the players not enshrined, while the other two are still active: Miami's Frank Gore (14,026) and Washington's Adrian Peterson (12,276).McCoy's age is not an issue for coach Sean McDermott."Whatever we need to do to win games, that's what we'll do," he said when asked about potentially limiting McCoy's playing time."I get where you're going with the age, and that's usually tied to running backs, age 30, and all that. But he's a special guy Youth Maurice Canady Jersey ," McDermott added. "I think he's a healthy 30. To me, he looks like he's in better shape this year than he was a year ago."Time will only tell.A sore groin and hip limited McCoy to appearing in just one preseason game, a 19-17 win at Cleveland on Aug 18, in which he acknowledged feeling rusty in managing 11 yards on four carries."I didn't play well, but that's kind of my norm in preseason," said McCoy, who added he feels ready for the start of the season.Another concern is though he topped 1,000 yards rushing for a sixth time last season, McCoy averaged a career-worst 4.0 yards per carry.McCoy shrugged off a question by saying production numbers can vary. What matters most is the respect he continues to draw from opposing defensive coordinators in devising ways to stop him."Having a 4.0 a carry is one thing," McCoy said. "But every week it's no secret. The defense knows the game plan and what they've got to do to stop me."NOTES: DT Kyle Williams (right knee) and DE Trent Murphy (groin) were not listed on Buffalo's injury report after both missed significant time during training camp. ... WR Ray-Ray McCloud (left knee) and LB Julian Stanford (nose) were Buffalo's only two players listed as not practicing.Bold Predictions: Ravens vs. Broncos The Ravens are looking to get back on track when they host the undefeated Denver Broncos. Over the course of two games, Baltimore has shown both brilliance and ineptitude. Coming off of a divisional road loss, how will the Ravens respond in Week 3?Sage’s predictions:The Ravens will score a defensive touchdown.Sign up HERE to take our weekly Ravens survey.In order to energize the home crowd and provide Joe Flacco and the offense with a little breathing room, Baltimore’s defense will intercept Case Keenum and return it for six. A franchise that has made turnovers their calling card will find the end zone for the first time this season, having recorded two picks in 2018 that were not run back for a score. John Brown will be Baltimore’s go-to offensive weapon. Ozzie Newsome signed John Brown this offseason to complement Michael Crabtree and Willie Snead IV. Through two games, Brown leads the Ravens in receiving and is averaging 19.4 yards per reception. Crabtree has been targeted 16 times — a team high — to Brown’s 14. In Week 3, anticipate Flacco to look to Brown more often, as he has proven he can haul in tough balls in tight coverage. Vasilis’ predictions:Lamar Jackson will not see the field in Week 3.Thus far, the Lamar Jackson package has been largely ineffective. If the goal was to give the opposition another facet to game plan for, then that has already been accomplished. The Ravens will aim to get Joe Flacco and Alex Collins in rhythm Cheap Joe Flacco Jersey , at the expense of the rookie quarterback’s playing time.Kenny Young will record double digit tackles and an interception.The fourth-round rookie has been mighty impressive throughout the preseason and the first two weeks of the year. The Ravens scheme is designed to funnel the ball carrier to the inside linebackers, which should allow Young to rack up tackles. Case Keenum will underestimate Young’s speed and toss an interception underneath or in the flat.Dustin’s predictions:Alex Collins will rush for 100 yards and two touchdowns.Through the first two games of the season, Collins has only received 16 carries for 48 yards and one touchdown.The Ravens will show that they are in fact committed to the run game when they face the Broncos. Collins will no longer be neglected, and he should receive at least 15 touches, amassing 100 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. The offensive line will hold Von Miller in check.Baltimore’s offensive line struggled immensely versus the Bengals pass rush in Week 2, particularly when matching up with Geno Atkins and Carlos Dunlap. Miller is potentially the best pass rusher in the game, but the Ravens will find a way to contain him. Regardless of whether James Hurst or Orlando Brown Jr. starts at right tackle against Denver, expect tight ends Nick Boyle and Maxx Williams to consistently provide help by chipping Miller on the edge. Baltimore deployed this tactic against Khalil Mack last season, and he was held to zero sacks.Frank’s predictions:Mark Andrews will be the Ravens leading receiver.The Broncos are fairly stout in pass coverage on the outside. However, they tend to struggle against opposing tight ends. In the first two weeks of the season, they faced Raiders tight end Jared Cook and Seahawks tight end Will Dissly. Cook and Dissly combined to catch seven passes for 154 yards. Ravens third-round pick Mark Andrews, who caught his first career touchdown last week, could be in for a productive outing. The Ravens hold Phillip Lindsay in check. Undrafted rookie running back Phillip Lindsay has burst onto the scene this season, leading the Broncos in rushing after two weeks. He has rushed for 178 yards on just 29 carries, good for an average of 6.1 YPC. Lindsay has separated himself from Royce Freeman and Devontae Booker in the Denver backfield. However, the Ravens have had over a week to scout him and recognize he has become a key cog in their offensive attack. Don Martindale should have a game plan in place to contain Lindsay, and it will work effectively. Lindsay will be held to under 50 yards from scrimmage. Have a bold prediction?
