With their season on the brink of collapse, the Cincinnati Bengals found a way to win last week against Philadelphia. Nick Foles Womens Jersey . And the Bengals found a way to win without five-time Pro Bowl wide receiver A.J. Green in the lineup.Week 13 also was kind to the Cleveland Browns. They had a bye and coach Hue Jacksons winless squad sorely needed some time to regroup as they hope to avoid becoming the first team since the 2008 Detroit Lions to go 0-16. With quarterback Robert Griffin III starting this week for Cleveland, that may buoy the Browns spirits.On Sunday, the two intrastate rivals collide at 1 p.m. at Clevelands FirstEnergy Stadium on the banks of Lake Erie.Jackson did have this warning for his old team and the rest of the league on Wednesday.You better get us now because it wont be like this always, Jackson said of his 0-12 club. Weve got a lot of work ahead of us. I think were committed to doing it the right way and the other part of it is you have to do it.The Bengals (4-7-1) come to Cleveland having ended a four-game winless streak; they hadnt won since beating the Browns on Oct. 23. In between victories were three losses and an uninspiring tie along with even more uninspiring play.Bengals players are very aware that the Browns and Jackson would love to win their first game against them.You dont want to be the team to help them stop their streak, said defensive end Carlos Dunlap. For us its an AFC North game, against one of our old coaches. We know its personal for him and were going to approach it that way.Against the Eagles, quarterback Andy Dalton had his best game of the season when the Bengals needed it most. He passed for 332 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions.Dalton completed 74 percent of his passes and had a season-high passer rating of 130.0 to help the Bengals keep their slim postseason hopes alive.When there are new guys in there its going to take a little bit of time. It was definitely a big improvement this week and we have to keep going, Dalton said.Bengals coach Marvin Lewis also praised his young group of wide receivers for stepping up while Green recovers from a hamstring problem.I think we have to be most pleased with our young group of guys, Lewis said. Our receivers, particularly James Wright, Tyler Boyd, Cody Core, Alex Erickson, Brandon LaFell, and Tyler Eifert. They picked up the slack in a game where we had to throw the ball a little bit more than anticipated. Those guys did a very good job of executing and being efficient with it.Dalton might be licking his chops as he prepares for a Browns defense that has given up a league-high 28 touchdown passes. The Cleveland defensive line has an anemic 17 sacks -- last in the league.No wonder Green, who has missed two games since being injured on the second play from scrimmage Nov. 20 against the Buffalo Bills, wants to return so quickly.He worked out on the rehab field during Cincinnatis practice Wednesday but was declared out on Friday.Greens one-handed catch in the middle of an end-zone scrum on a Hail Mary at the end of the first half highlighted Cincinnatis day full of big plays against the Browns in October.In that game, Cincinnati amassed 559 yards of offense against a porous Browns defense. Jeremy Hill rushed for a career-high 168 yards and scored on a 74-yard run.The Bengals have dominated Cleveland in four straight victories, holding the Browns to just 7.5 points per game in those contests.Having been the offensive coordinator for two years under Lewis and the Bengals, Jackson knows all too well what the Browns are up against.Theyre starting to play well, Jackson said Wednesday. The QB is playing well. Their defense is playing extremely well and they just beat a very good Philadelphia team.Despite their struggles, the Browns continue to play hard -- a testament to Jackson.Some of the years past, when youre sitting in this situation with poor records, the coach is imminently going to get fired, said left tackle and future Hall of Famer Joe Thomas. All the players on the team are going to get cut, traded or released and you know a bomb is going to get dropped on the organization in a month. I think the optimism and positivity and the effort you still see out there on a daily basis is because everybody here knows were working for something down the line in the future and its not just going to get destroyed at the end of the season.Still, with one of the youngest teams in the league, a bevy of draft picks and the expectation of being well below the salary cap, there will be plenty of opportunity to shore up the lack of talent on next years team.In essence, players are auditioning for jobs next year, and one player who will be closely followed is Griffin.He hasnt played a whole lot of football this year, Jackson said, but he will be playing Sunday.For his part, Griffin wants the chance to prove he belongs, and he is all in as a Cleveland Brown.It is just an opportunity to get to play in the NFL with a group of guys that do not deserve to be 0-12, he said. I just want to come in, give the team as much of a spark as I possibly can, have fun and hopefully, we can go 4-0 because that is what we have been working for in this last quarter of the season. Clayton Thorson Eagles Jersey . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. Tommy McDonald Youth Jersey. Jeff Green scored 13 points and Kris Humphries 12 for the Celtics, who nearly blew an 18-point, second-half lead. Sullingers 20-20 was the first by a Celtics player since Kevin Garnetts first game in Boston in 2007. Garnett was dealt -- along with Paul Pierce -- to Brooklyn during the off-season. http://www.theeaglesshoponline.com/Youth-Randall-Cunningham-Eagles-Jersey/ . Just as Montreal was settling into the first full working week of a new year, the Impact announced the appointment of their new head coach. BOSTON -- A new documentary about the 2013 Boston Marathon bombings chronicles the long road to recovery for many of the survivors still struggling with physical and emotional wounds.Marathon: The Patriots Day Bombing focuses on the stories of three families who had all been spectators near the finish line when two pressure cooker bombs detonated: a young newlywed couple, a mother and daughter and two brothers.The nearly two-hour film, which had its Boston premiere last week, airs on Monday on HBO.Filmmakers Ricki Stern and Annie Sundberg say they set out to give an unflinching look at the ups and downs of long-term recovery from the attack, which killed three people and injured nearly 300 others.We felt a huge responsibility to tell a broad picture of the survivors story, said Stern. Many of the survivors feel this global relationship with other survivors of terrorist attacks. That if theres some way their recovery can help others going through something similar, they want to do it.Patrick Downes, one of the survivors spotlighted in the documentary, says it wasnt always easy having the filmmakers along for the journeyYou have to be incredibly vulnerable during the worst moments of your life and share with people all the struggles involved, Downes said. We thought this was an important story to tell and we accepted that responsibility in the hopes that it represented not only our experience but the experience of a lot of other people.The 33-year-old Cambridge native and his wife, Jessica Kensky, had each lost part of a leg in the blast, but thheir recovery over the next three years couldnt be more different. Ron Jaworski Womens Jersey. Downes was able walk again using a prosthetic leg and eventually ran the 2016 Boston Marathon.Its a bittersweet moment that closes the film because while Downes seems to triumph over his injuries, Kensky continues to battle through multiple surgeries and setbacks.The film also shows how post-traumatic stress still haunts those who werent seriously injured or even there on marathon day.Bombing survivor Kevin Corcoran suffers superficial physical injuries, but is consumed with guilt because he had urged the family to move closer to the front of the crowds. His wife ended up losing both of her legs and his daughter suffered serious leg injuries in the blast.Another mother, Liz Norden, wasnt at the race but her two adult sons were spectators. They both lost legs in the blast.Two years after the attack, in 2015, Norden has a harder time moving on than her sons, attending nearly every day of the death penalty trial of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the youngest of two brothers that perpetrated the attack.Each one of them has experienced the impact in different ways. Everyone plays out the `what ifs, said Stern, the filmmaker. I didnt realize that, three years out, this, in many ways, is the hardest thing to get at -- the mental pain.---Follow Philip Marcelo at twitter.com/philmarcelo.
