NEW YORK (AP) — Through five weeks Youth Rodney Anderson Jersey , the Los Angeles Rams have handled every challenge thrown their way.Doesn't matter if they've been involved in blowouts, shootouts or close games that come down to the final moments, the results have all been the same: another Rams win.And because of that, they are the unanimous top team in the latest AP Pro32 poll for the third consecutive week. Once again, the Rams received all 12 first-place votes and 384 points in balloting Tuesday by media members who regularly cover the NFL."The Rams keep finding different ways to win," Newsday's Bob Glauber said."On a day when Jared Goff isn't sharp, Todd Gurley scores three touchdowns and Sean McVay makes a gutsy fourth-down call to ice the Seahawks in a shootout win."And the Rams will look to extend their perfect start as they head to Denver to take on the Broncos.The league's other 5-0 team, the Kansas City Chiefs, stayed at No. 2. The Chiefs face their biggest test of the season so far when they travel to Foxborough, Massachusetts to face Tom Brady and the Patriots on Sunday night. The Patriots jumped three spots to No. 4."Showdown looms with KC," Fox Sports' John Czarnecki said.The Saints inched up a spot to No. 3 after Drew Brees became the NFL's all-time leader in yards passing in New Orleans' 43-19 rout of Washington on Monday night.The Cincinnati Bengals, who pulled off an unlikely fourth-quarter rally to beat the Miami Dolphins 27-17 on Sunday, moved up a spot to No. 5. The next two weeks could go a long way in determining how the Bengals do this season. This week White Rodney Anderson Jersey , the Bengals host the Pittsburgh Steelers in a key AFC North matchup. Coach Marvin Lewis is 2-15 at home against their rivals, including the postseason.And the following week, their matchup against the Chiefs got flexed into the Sunday night slot. Cincinnati is 6-14 in prime-time games since 2011, including 0-5 on Sunday night."We'll know a lot more about the Bengals after they face the Steelers and Chiefs in the next two weeks, but this team is playing smart, winning football," said Ira Kaufman of Fox 13 in Tampa.The Carolina Panthers, who squeaked past the New York Giants on Graham Gano's 63-yard field goal with 1 second remaining Sunday, jumped three spots to No. 6.The Jacksonville Jaguars dropped four spots to No. 7 after getting routed in Kansas City."Injuries are taking a heavy toll on an offense struggling to overcome injury issues at running back and left tackle," The Sporting News' Alex Marvez said of the Jaguars.The Chicago Bears stayed at No. 8 during their bye week and will return to action against the reeling Miami Dolphins.The Minnesota Vikings jumped five spots to No. 9 after topping the Philadelphia Eagles 23-21 in a rematch of last season's NFC championship game.Baltimore dropped five spots to No. 10 after losing 12-9 in overtime to AFC North rival Cleveland.And in a Bay Area bummer, the Oakland Raiders, who are down four spots to No. 31, and the San Francisco 49ers http://www.cincinnatibengalsteamonline.com/anthony-munoz-jersey , down one place to No. 32, round out the poll. CINCINNATI (AP)The assistant head coach is gone, but head coach Marvin Lewis is coming back for a 16th try at a playoff victory. And so it goes in Cincinnati. In a what-have-you-done-lately league, the Bengals remain the outlier. Lewis met with the media on Wednesday, a day after getting a two-year extension through 2019, and talked in general terms about how his team needs to change. Better players. Better coaching. Better performance. All the things he’s said many times during the second-longest active coaching tenure in the NFL, behind only Bill Belichick. Unlike the New England coach, who has five Super Bowl titles, Lewis has yet to win a playoff game. But owner Mike Brown hates change and was willing to give Lewis yet another chance after yet another futile season. The 82-year-old owner didn’t attend the news conference – he rarely addresses the media – so it was left to Lewis to explain why he was still there. ”You’re going to have to start from scratch regardless, so you might as well start from scratch with someone you understand, you know,” Lewis said. ”Everybody can always look at what’s negative from it, but the only way we can go about it and do it positive is to get back to work and go about it.” One change: Lewis wanted more control over the coaching staff and evidently got it. Paul Alexander Germaine Pratt Cincinnati Bengals Jersey , the assistant head coach and offensive line coach for 23 seasons, was let go. Bill Lazor, who was elevated to offensive coordinator after an 0-2 start last season, will remain in the role and get a chance to redesign the NFL’s worst offense in the offseason. Defensive coordinator Paul Guenther will interview for the job with the Raiders, making it likely Lewis will have to find a replacement. Lewis has defied the odds and kept his job, and he’s not the only odds-beater in Ohio. The 0-16 Browns have retained head coach Hue Jackson for another season as well. The Browns and Bengals have played a total of 64 games the past two seasons and won 14 collectively, yet neither team is changing head coaches. Must be something in that icy Lake Erie and Ohio River water. In Cincinnati, fans were still trying to wrap their heads around Marvin Lewis 16.0, with a few upgrades to fix some of the many bugs in the program. Lewis said Brown wants to win a championship, and that’s why he decided to keep Lewis in charge despite his record so far. Lewis is 0-7 in the playoffs, an NFL record for coaching futility. His teams lost five straight opening-round games from 2011-15, another record. The Bengals haven’t won a playoff game since the 1990 season, the sixth-longest streak of futility in league history. Brown decided that Lewis was the best choice Germaine Pratt Jersey 2019 , regardless of what’s happened in the past 15 years. ”I tell people when you go to a car lot, you know what you’re looking for and they’re not going to sway you one way or another, that’s what you’re going to do,” Lewis said. ”I believe that about (NFL owners).” During the news conference, a media member relayed questions from fans, including one from a woman named Betty Lou at a chili parlor in northern Kentucky about the team’s commitment to winning. One of Lewis’ jobs in his latest incarnation will be trying to win back Betty Lou and many other fans who gave up on him. Bengals’ attendance plummeted last season to one of the lowest in the league. They had 10,000 empty seats for a home game against the rival Steelers. Paul Brown Stadium was half-empty for the final home game. Bringing Lewis back and rearranging the staff won’t create a surge in ticket sales. Brown chose to stay in his comfort zone rather than trying something different. ”I think sometimes there’s a tendency to think that the grass is greener, and it doesn’t necessarily end up that way often,” Lewis said, referring to NFL owners. ”So I think if they feel good about the relationship they have and where they’re headed that way, I think it’s a little different that way.” —
