JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Houston Texans found a winning formula for the road: Keep the ball on the ground and avoid turnovers.It worked to perfection against lowly Jacksonville.The Texans ran for a season-high 181 yards in a 24-21 victory over the Jaguars on Sunday. It helped that they also scored on defense and set up another touchdown with special teams.Nonetheless, it was a much-needed road victory -- Houstons first of the season -- for a team that plays three of its next four away from home. The Texans (6-3) face Oakland (7-2) next week in Mexico City.It feels good to get a win on the road, in a division game and its another step in the right direction, cornerback Kareem Jackson said. We need to continue to build on this and get better. We did some good things, but well go back and watch the film and see what we need to do better. At the end of the day, we got the win and thats all that matters.Lamar Miller led the rushing attack with 83 yards on 15 carries, including a 45-yard scamper that set up a touchdown. Akeem Hunt, called up from the practice squad Saturday, added 52 yards on eight carries. Hunts 17-yard run on a third-and-16 play in the fourth proved huge, setting up Nick Novaks 51-yard field goal.The group is starting to jell, quarterback Brock Osweiler said. The offensive line, the tight ends, the fullbacks and the receivers came up huge today as well. ... I think its the chemistry. Were now in the second half of season and had a lot of practice together. Were able to master some of those plays, and I think we also have tough, hard-nosed physical backs.I cant say enough about those guys.Jackson returned an interception 42 yards for a score on Jacksonvilles opening possession. Punt returner Tyler Ervin helped make it 21-10 in the third quarter by weaving his way for 57 yards and setting the Texans up at the 7-yard line. Osweiler had two short TD passes.But it was the ground game that proved to be the difference.Osweiler threw for just 99 yards.As long as theres a win on the end of that, sign me up every single week, Osweiler said.Here are some other things to know about the Texans and Jaguars (2-7), who have dropped five in a row in the series:BAD BORTLES: If the Jaguars are going to win again this season, they need Blake Bortles to play better. Bortles completed 32 of 49 passes for 265 yards, with two touchdowns, an interception and a fumble. He also misfired on deep passes to Allen Robinson and Marqise Lee. Its a work in progress, Bortles said. I continue to try to give those guys better balls and a chance to go and make a play. And when we have those opportunities, we have to go out and make plays.NOVAK MISSES: Novak made up for two misses with his 51-yarder late. He missed wide left from 49 yards out and wide right from 50 yards away.FLUKY FUMBLE: Of all of Bortles miscues in his career, one of the oddest ones happened in the second quarter. Under heavy pressure and trying to ground the ball, Bortles pass hit T.J. Yeldons foot. The ball bounced up and landed in Whitney Mercilus hands for what initially was ruled an interception. It was later changed to a lateral and a fumble. From the time you start playing quarterback, they tell you if the screen is covered, throw it at his feet, Bortles said. I was trying to make the smart play and live to play another down and that happens. Unfortunate.MISSING MEN: Houstons win was impressive considering how many key players the team was missing. Starting receiver Will Fuller (knee), run-stuffing nose tackle Vince Wilfork (groin) and cornerback A.J. Bouye (ankle) were inactive. So was Jaelen Strong, leaving the Texans with just three healthy wideouts.DROUGHTS CONTINUE: The Jaguars extended two droughts. They failed to score a touchdown on their opening possession, extending the NFLs longest current streak to 23 games. Even more baffling, they have now gone more than five games without a takeaway. Its officially 23 quarters and counting. Weve got to do more, Jags defensive tackle Malik Jackson said. Weve got to do better.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Nike Air Max Uptempo 97 University Blue .

Nike 97 Ultra Black Mens .J. -- Josh Cribbs was in the Pro Bowl in February and out of a job six months later. WASHINGTON -- Its the opening week of the NFL season, but Jakob Silfverberg will jokingly admit he doesnt know too much about American football.Hes not concerned that the New England Patriots will be without star quarterback Tom Brady for the first four games because of a suspension. Silfverberg knows the difference between Eli and Peyton Manning, but it doesnt matter. Theres only one thing the 25-year-old forward for Team Sweden is concerned about right now and thats the World Cup of Hockey.He already owns an impressive international resume for Sweden, most recently earning a silver medal with the team at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. As surreal as that moment was for Silfverberg, hes in awe every time hes in the locker room or on the ice with some of his hockey idols, including teammate Erik Karlsson, whos only seven months older. Silfverberg also appreciates the fact that when he glances into the stands during a practice, theres Swedish hockey legend Daniel Alfredsson.Silfverberg is humble. Hes modest and sometimes cant believe he has reached the highest levels in hockey. A combination of work ethic and talent has earned him that right.Always as a kid I wasnt really anything special, he said. I was usually a two-way forward and just kept working hard and thats kind of stuck with me. Ive never been a superstar. Ive just been a hard-working guy whos been able to work his way up. Internationally, I was in the Olympics and that was a lot of fun. I didnt play much but I learned a lot from it and just being around these guys is a great honor. Its nice being around these superstars.Sweden coach Rikard Gronborg has witnessed the young players work ethic first-hand.Thats why hes here, Gronborg said. Thats why hes playing in the National Hockey League. Hes a tremendous competitor. Hes diligent with everything he does when it comes to [nutrition] and everything he puts into his body, and hes top-notch when it comes to that.Said a Western conference coach, via text: I love Silfverberg. I think he has become a very dangerous all-around player. Can produce and play in any situation. I think he keeps elevating his game.Most of the best players in the world play a solid two-way style. It was in his late teens when he figured out that was the type of player he needed to be in order to have success.Its always been there, Silfverberg said. I started off playing center until I was 17 or 18, and thats when I switched to wing and always took defensive responsibilities. Even as a kid, my mom and dad always had to tell me I wasnt supposed to be a defenseman. I was supposed to score goals because I was a forward, but its beeen sticking with me for a long time.dddddddddddd Thats how I am off the ice too. I like to take responsibility and I like to know whats going on. Its been there my whole life.Selected by the Ottawa Senators in the second round (39th overall) in the 2009 draft, Silfverberg made his NHL debut during the 2012 Stanley Cup playoffs. He was 22 at the time and had just won the Swedish championship when the Senators summoned him. He played only two games in those playoffs but it was an invaluable experience.My strongest memory of that is when we won the championship back home in Sweden and then a week after that I flew [to Ottawa] and was playing in the playoffs with Erik Karlsson, Alfredsson and [Jason] Spezza, and we were playing against the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden, said Silfverberg, who was traded to the Anaheim Ducks, along with Stefan Noesen and Ottawas first-round pick in the 2014 draft for Bobby Ryan on July 5, 2013.That was one of my strongest memories. Even though I didnt play my best hockey, there was a lot of stuff going on, it wasnt my best hockey but it was a really good moment.It made me realize that its a bigger step than I thought it was. I thought the adjustment was going to be easier. It was alarming and Alfie said, This isnt going to be easy. These guys can really play. I thought the step was going to be easier but that was a good way to realize that this is the best league in the world.Before his NHL arrival, Silfverberg broke Alfredssons Swedish Elite League single-season playoff scoring record with 13 goals.?At that point and time I wasnt too concerned with any record, he said. I was just so happy that we managed to win the championship. It wasnt until I actually arrived in Ottawa a week and a half later, and Erik told me I beat Alfies record and he was upset with me. Obviously, it was in a fun tone. [Alfredsson] was laughing a little bit about it and obviously its extra special taking it from Alfie.Alfredsson, who retired after 17 seasons in 2013-14, has been impressed with Silfverberg since seeing him during those playoffs in 2012.I thought he was very mature for a young guy, said Alfredsson, an adviser for Team Sweden. I knew he was a scorer but he was all-around really responsible, and being thrown into that situation is not easy, but he did a great job for us. You can tell right away his shot is exceptional. He, too, felt the pace is different but with his smartness you knew he could go out and play and contribute and obviously keep it simple.
