Eagles Ex Lover Javon Hargrave Scouted by 49ers Nick Bosa: 'The Most Effective!'?

For Gillingham manager Mark Stimson, football has been his dystopia in recent times.The Gills bo ssaw his side lose yet again on Saturday in a 4-0 defeat away at Brentford, continuing a perfect record of not winning any competitivematch away from home this season.Couple that with no wins in the last eight matches,some undoubtedlydire performances on the pitch, an acrimonious exit from the Donovan Mitchell Jersey FA Cup,and a newly foundplace in the League Onerelegation zone, and you have the typical Football League manager under severe pre sure.Severe pre sure that should ultimately result inoneof two things: his resignation, or Stimsons sacking. But why?Lack of desireFor the thousands of fans that spend around 20-30each matchfor 23 games a season, and up to 50-60 for some away matches, it can be quite an insult when the players dont put in a good performance.Its then twice as insulting when they display a complete lack of desire to win, and even more incredulous when the manager, instead of doing the job fans effectively pay for him to do, sits back and somewhat shows the same lack of desire!Seldom does ever come out to the technical area and bark out instructions to the players or motivate them when they are losing or playing poorly; its usually the a sistant manager out there shouting to the players.If Stimson, like he has been doing,displays the same lack of desire as the calamitous players on the field of play, then what on earth is he doing managing a profe sional football club?Antiquated tacticsSame old story, same old performance, week in, week out.Since the start of 2010, Gillingham have been onthe slippery slope downto self-destruction, with the players churning out le s than average performances resulting in bitter disappointment.And why is that? Since the Boxing Day defeat (ironically, against !) that further dashed the sterling record of the former fortre s of the , a fresh, new approach has not been introduced.In Tony Bradley Jersey terms of formation, the Gills are tactically astute, with a well placed defence and midfield, and a good Rudy Gobert Jersey attacking set-up in a striker and support-striker in a solid 4-4-2 line-up.However, the problem is the counter-attack and focus of play. Simply put, the Gillingham players out there are not prepared to take risks.Or rather, Stimson is not prepared to take risks. The Gills do not counter-attack enough, most likely due to fear of failure and a lo s of po se sion of the ball, and this of course can result in some costly mistakes due toa lack of defence.As for focusing play, its annoying when you see any team play the long-ball game.Stimson wants to get the ball forward to the likes of , , and as often as po sible, and probably thinks this can be achieved by playing the ball over the top of the defence, i.e. a long ball game.Little does he apparently realise that channelling the ball along the floor with a series of short or long ground pa ses and through balls along the floor is the best option.Why is it the best option to use? Because team after team come up against Gillingham, use that tactic and seal a deserved win; and also because the ball-over-the-top focus of play clearly is not working.On current results and performances, it does not seem likely that Stimson will realise this in the near future.Football is a results-based busine s and sport, and with Stimson unable to grasp succe sful tactics at this level, a new tactician is needed quickly if Gillingham is to beat the drop.No Fan SupportStimson gets verballyabused weekly by the Gills fans, with the section of supporters in the at the krbs Priestfield regularly sharing their le s than happy thoughts with Mr Stimson.And following yet anotheraway defeat on Saturday at Brentford, the fans let Stimson know how they felt as he came over to them and applauded their support.Stimmowas met with Bojan Bogdanovic Jersey an air of disdain as his team put in yet another poor display, with the manager not once getting out onto the technical box and publicly showing everyone his desire to spur on his players.On the lips of almost every Gillingham fan, and on almost every Gillingham forum on the Internet, the words Stimson Out have become synonymous with the situation the Gills are currently facing.So the me sage to London-based busine sman is: as chairman of Gillingham Football Club, do the right thing, sack your current manager (Mark Stimson), and go for a new approach to save this club from despair.The clubs debts, whilst perhaps controllable, are still there and Georges Niang Jersey will not go away until theperformances and subsequently results on the pitch improve; that is the only way this club will move forward and eradicate its financial burden.In the , Will the chairman stand by me? Who knows?If he knows anything about football, he wont stand by you Mark. Youre not the right man for the job, simple as that.

Loic Remy is set to finalise his move from Marseille to Newcastle United either tomorrow or Wednesday for a reported 8 million pound fee. Hes certainly got the talent to be a top cla s striker and the goal scoring ability to become a legend on Tyneside. But can he and Papi s Ci se become a prolific duo?After Demba Ba jumped ship to fellow Premier League club Chelsea last week, Newcastle needed to bring in a star performing and goal grabbing replacement. Remy has been on Newcastles wish list for a while and they have tried to sign Christian Yelich Jersey him a couple of times in previous transfer windows, but to no avail. The fee was either too hefty or the agents and club were playing hard ball with the Newcastle.Newcastle owner Mike Ashley has outlined in the past that he and the manager will not pursue someone if they continue to aggregate or test their patients. Marseille were doing exactly this, so Remy must be something special that Ashley and Pardew believe can work succe sfully with Ci se Wei-Yin Chen Jersey and be as prolific as Ba was in his short but goal fest filled stay at Newcastle.Remys record this season hasnt been anything to write home about or get too over excited with, just the three goals in sixteen appearances. But was he does has is the consistency to perform week after week and even chip in with a few a sists for his team mates along the way.At Newcastle last season Ci se was Cameron Maybin Jersey a revelation when he arrived; Hell be the next legendary number nine! the Geordies said. Ci se notched thirteen goals in twelve appearances at the end of last season. But the 2012-2013 season has been a different story. Ci se has only managed to get two goals so far, with one of them coming in one of the domestic cups available to Premier League teams.With Remys arrival imminent with Newcastle fans, including myself, be treated to a feast for the eyes when inevitably Remy and Ci se are partnered together for the remaining games this season?Remys potential debut could be Saturday against Reading, it will be interesting to see how he links up with Ci se and will give the Newcastle fans an indication of what he can bring to the team.Its bad news again for Shola Jazz Chisholm Jersey Ameobi who will be demoted to the bench as a back up for the two if they pick up a suspension or knock. But Remy is younger and a more star studded name and talent who can grow into a feared goal scorer in the Premier League.For me Demba Ba and Papi s Ci se were too alike and thats where Newcastle striking problems lay. They would generally go for the same ball, not run into positions for one another and the most frustrating thing was that they could never seem to score in the game when the other one did. Amazing to say that they are from the same country!Remy will bring another dimension to Newcastle and will offer Ci se a different sort of striking partner. He has pace, skill and a better football brain over Ba in my opinion and even though he doesnt have as good of a goal Lewis Brinson Jersey scoring record he can set them up for Ci se to finish off.Could the signing of Remy be the addition that can change the fortunes of Newcastles season?

The are in the midst of one of the more transformative offseasons in franchise history. , , , and are just some of the big names that have departed Foxborough over the last few weeks, really marking the end of one era and the start of another. While Tyler Chatwood Jersey leaders like , and remain on the roster, Bill Belichick will look to a few of his younger players to carry that baton left by those who have walked out the door as he ushers in this dawn of a new era in New England.For the purposes of our discu sion today, were going to take a look at three Patriots players and highlight why this trio could be on the verge of a breakout season in 2020. The 2019 draft cla s is on display here with second-year men like defensive end and quarterback , while New Englands 2018 first round pick in will also get some shine heading into his third season in the league.Just because Tom Brady took his talents to Tampa Bay, that doesnt mean the standards that Belichick has set in New England will come down. They expect to compete in the division and make a run in the playoffs. For them to do that, theyll need these three to step up in a big way. MIA DL #50 2020 projection: 55 tackles, 9.5 sacks, 16 tackles for lo sAlmost immediately after he was drafted by New England in the third round last year, there were plenty of people dubbing it a slam dunk selection and were flabbergasted how the Michigan product even fell to the Patriots at that spot. Out of the gate, Winovich proved to be a strong situational pa s rusher for Belichicks defense, compiling four sacks through Week 5. That sack production did dip as the season went on as he finished with just 1.5 more sacks to put a bow on his rookie season, but Winovichs opportunity is about to increase dramatically in 2020.While plenty of attention was paid to Tom Bradys departure in free agency, the Patriots also lost three linebackers in Kyle Van Noy, Jamie Collins and . As it relates to Winovich, the exit of Jon Lester Jersey both Van Noy and Collins specifically should mean that his playing time will bump up and could po sibly claim a starting spot. The 24-year-old played in all 16 games for New England last season, but was never able to secure a start. With Collins and Van Noy out of the picture, that opens up two starting positions, and Winovich will have as good of a shot as anybody to take one of them.With that starting job comes greater opportunity to produce, which is why hes a prime candidate to take a leap in Year 2. He has the talent, has spent a year in the system, and is now on the verge of getting ample playing time to really make an impact on the field. DEN QB #8 2020 projection:3,604 pa sing yards, 23 touchdowns, 12 interceptions, 63.5 completion percentageSimilar to Winovich, Jarrett Stidhams projected leap in 2020 is all about opportunity. A lot can change between now and the start of the regular season, but he currently has the inside track to become the starting quarterback to begin the post-Tom Brady era. While his collegiate production at Auburn wasnt eye-popping, Stidham was a bad fit for that system and does po se s a ton of talent.Hes already been backed by a number of Patriots veterans following Bradys decision to sign with the , and it seems like Patriots bra s is impre sed with him as well. Outside of , who is on his third stint with New England, theres arguably no other quarterback that is currently available who is better Brandon Morrow Jersey suited to take the starting spot. Stidham spent the entire year behind Brady learning the Patriots offense and was even working a lot with the first team towards the tail end of the season as Brady dealt with injuries. He also saw a ton of playing time in the preseason where he impre sed with throws like this one.That throw though. | New England Patriots (@Patriots) On top of his experience in the system and talent, Stidham is going to have the benefit of having both Josh McDaniels and Bill Belichick setting him up for succe s. The two coaches wont just throw the textbook at Stidham and expect him to learn the ins and outs of the offense (which is basically advanced calculus) all at once. Theyll ease him along. Sure, there will be a point where Stidham will have to make plays, but theres no doubt that Belichick and McDaniels will give him proper schooling before that moment comes. They were able to manage with for a season and patch things along for a month with and in the past. Theyll be able to do it again, and it will come at the benefit of Stidham. LAR RB #24 2020 projection: 1,137 rushing yards, 16 rushing touchdowns, 30 receptions, 270 receiving yardsIm higher on Sony Michel heading Ron Santo Jersey into next season than most. The former first-round pick regre sed in 2019 after his strong rookie season, but there is a logical explanation for it.During Michels strong postseason performance during the 2018 season where New England won Super Bowl LIII, the Patriots really relied on the ground game, running up the gut through the A and B gaps. That required strong play from both center and fullback , who were instrumental during that championship run, as you can see in this highlight clip below.Celebrating Sony Michels 24th birthday with all 6 of his playoff TDs! NFL (@NFL) Heading into last season Andrews was diagnosed with blood clots in his lungs and was placed on season-ending injured reserve. Develin, meanwhile, suffered a neck injury in Week 2 and also landed on IR. With those two out of the picture, the running game -- and offense as a whole -- suffered. Both appear to be on track to return in 2020, and if that does in fact happen, Michel should be able to put up numbers that are similar to that playoff run from a few years ago.It also doesnt hurt that the Patriots will likely be Danny Hultzen Jersey rolling Jarrett Stidham out as their quarterback in 2020. When you have a first-year starter under center, handing the ball off to take some of the pre sure offhim is e sential, which should mean even more work for Michel next season.

Despite an offseason full of trade rumors and some new additions through the NFL Draft, are officially running it back with all the key veterans in their wide receiver room.The 49ers have agreed to Genesis Cabrera Jersey a two-year deal with wide receiver , who was a restricted free agent. According to multiple reports, Jennings can earn up to $14.5 million over the next two seasons with $10.5 million guaranteed in his new deal.Jennings has carved out a vital niche role in Kyle Shanahans offense alongside star pa s-catchers and Ramon Urias Jersey , and he expanded that role in the 2023-24 NFL playoffs as the 49ers made it back to the Super Bowl. Jennings caught a touchdown and also threw one on a trick play in that 25-22 overtime lo s to the , recording four receptions for 45 yards. He also had an impre sive fingertip catch for a key third-down conversion in the 49ers comeback victory over the in the Tyler O Neill Jersey NFC Championship Game two weeks prior.ADVERTISEMENT But where the versatile Jennings has most excelled in the NFL is as an elite blocker for his position, which is crucial in an offense with at running back and several of the NFLs best catch-and-run threats in Samuel, McCaffrey, Aiyuk and tight end . Jennings displayed this ability several times last season, including on one play where he went viral for blocking cornerback into a sideline Gatorade cooler in the Lou Brock Jersey divisional round of the playoffs.Jennings not only rejoins Aiyuk and Purdy, who remain on the teams roster despite being involved in myriad trade rumors this offseason, but also fellow veterans Chris Conley, Ronnie Bell and Danny Gray and two rookies, 2024 first-round pick and fourth-round pick , in the 49ers wide receiver room.Like his quarterback , Jennings is a former seventh-round pick who has blo somed into a key Kolten Wong Jersey starter in San Francisco. Now, Jennings has cashed in just like Purdy is seemingly destined to soon.49ers QB Brock Purdy ranks 2nd latest quarterback rankings Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?

Among the 300 non-quarterbacks who switched groups via totally free company or professions this offseason, former Philadelphia Eagles defensive lineman Javon Brandon Allen Jersey Hargrave emerged with the highest average annual value contract. The San Francisco 49ers protected his solutions with a four-year deal worth $84 's enhancement enhances the 49ers' protective line, which concurrently boasts the ruling 2022 Defensive Player of the Year, Nick Bosa, that is very thrilled by his new colleague. "I'm incredibly ecstatic," Bosa claimed. "We've been seeing tape on him the previous couple of years in Philly and I think each time we see him, [defensive line instructor Kris Kocurek raves regarding him. We assume of him as one of the most effective indoor guys in the league, particularly rushing the passer, and to have him on our side is mosting likely to be a substantial enhancement for us https://www.sfsportsapparel.com/collections/mason-pline-jersey. "Last period in Philadelphia, Hargrave played a crucial function as a foundation of the NFL's top pass-rushing device. He attained a career-high 11 sacks, placing him amongst four Eagles players that reached double-digit sack numbers. Additionally, Hargrave's payments were critical in thrusting the Eagles to Super Dish LVII regardless of experiencing a heartbreaking 38-35 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
