Can Rangers Make The Playoffs

Image
Adrian Beltre and the Texas Rangers will try to bounce back from a 6-5 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays to continue their playoff push.  The Rangers have wrapped up their series in Detroit against the Tigers. Winning eight of their last ten games, the Rangers are now 64-59, and just 3.5 games behind the Houston Astros for first place in the A.L. West standings. After winning three games of four against the Tigers, the Rangers have increased their chance of not only earning a Wild Card playoff spot, but they’ve increased their chance on winning the division.

Orlando Scandrick Out For The Season; Pics and Player Reactions

Image
Draya Michelle posts an x-ray of Orlando Scandrick Orlando Scandrick notified ESPN's Ed Werder via text message that he has torn both his ACL and MCL ligaments in his knee. After going down breaking on pass to rookie Lucky Whitehead, safety Barry Church called for the training staff as Orlando went down. Scandrick  has been the best secondary player for the Cowboys during training camp. His loss would be a huge blow to a defense that is already missing a few key players for various reasons: Greg Hardy, Ronaldo McClain, and others. Corey White, free agent CB from the New Orleans Saints, will now have to take on a bigger role. White had a good outing against the San Francisco 49ers in the preseason game last week. Tyler Patmon, Mo Clairbourne, and rookie Byron Jones could be called upon to fill the void. Cowboys Reaction Sending prayers out to Orlando Scandrick...Fear he has a torn acl. Your the best bud. — Tony Romo (@tonyromo) August 26, 2015 It's b...

Texas A&M: Kyle Allen Starts Over Kyler Murray

Image
Aggies name Kyle Allen as starting QB. Photo credit: TAMU Former Allen quarterback and three-time Texas state champion Kyler Murray will have a brand new football experience his first year at Texas A&M. For the first time he will be the second QB on the depth chart. Aggies head coach Kevin Sumlin announces that sophomore Kyle Allen will start the season. That does not necessarily mean that Murray will not see the field this season however. Allen took the reigns of the Aggie offseason late last year after the flame-out of the highly touted Kenny Hill. He would lead the team to a Liberty Bowl victory earning MVP honors in the process. Playing both QBs equally does not seem likely for Sumlin or offensive coordinator Jack Spavital. But A&M will rely on Murray's big play ability if needed to spur the offense into gear. He may be small in statue, but he makes up for it with his speed and raw talent. Allen was one of the top quarterback recruits in the cou...
