GREEN BAY, Wis. -- James Jones wouldnt be denied a Lambeau leap after a long touchdown catch. So when a Lions fan -- sitting in enemy territory, no less -- pushed him out of the stands, the Packers receiver tried to make the traditional celebratory jump one more time. Success. His 83-yard touchdown reception late in the third quarter was just the big-play spark the Packers needed to liven up an offence that otherwise settled for field goals in a 22-9 win Sunday over the undermanned Detroit Lions. "Yeah, man, a Detroit Lion fan pushed me out of there one time," Jones said. "I had to double jump." Mason Crosby kicked five field goals. The defence contained Reggie Bush and took advantage of an offence playing without star receiver Calvin Johnson, who had missed a couple days of practice last week with a knee injury. With Megatron out, Jones stole the show with a highlight-reel catch. Jones had a step on his man down the left sideline, and Aaron Rodgers delivered a perfectly timed throw. With another defensive back closing in around the 15, Jones turned right about 45 degrees to get into the end zone for a 16-3 lead with 3:12 left in the third quarter. He took a bow while dancing on his heels. Hes glad he didnt get caught. "I was hoping, because I never wouldve heard the end of it from everybody in here," said Jones, who finished with four catches for 127 yards and barely missed another long score after his foot grazed the sideline in the end zone. The Packers (2-2) extended their winning streak in Wisconsin over the Lions (3-2) to 23. Rodgers was 20 for 30 for 274 yards, and Eddie Lacy ran for 99 yards on 23 carries in his return from a concussion. Randall Cobb set up Crosbys 31-yard field goal in the third quarter with a 67-yard dash into Lions territory after lining up in the backfield. Crosby also was good from 26 and 52 yards in the first half and added makes from 42 and 45 in the fourth quarter. For a change, defence set the pace for Green Bay before the offence caught up. The Packers recorded five sacks, all from their linebackers, including one from Clay Matthews before he left with a thumb injury. "We didnt get it done well enough today -- offence, defence or special teams," coach Jim Schwartz said. "With or without Calvin, that was the story of the game -- not whether Calvin played or not." But the wideout was still clearly missed. Reggie Bush was held to 44 yards on 13 carries and four catches for 25 yards. The Packers improved run defence mostly contained the dangerous Bush on first-down runs, leaving the Lions with long second- and third-down situations. Still, the Lions trailed by just 16 late because Green Bay had to settle for field goals. They drove to the Packers 30 with 7:16 left before three straight incompletions left them headed back to the sideline. Detroit especially felt Johnsons absence then. A pass attempt on fourth-and-3 went awry after Kris Durham slipped on the turf. Schwartz declined to offer more details on the extent of Johnsons injury. He missed his first regular-season game since 2010. Matthew Stafford, who finished 25 for 40 for 262 yards, said he had an inkling Saturday that Johnson might be out. "Hes one of the guys on our team that can stretch the field," Stafford said. "I know he wanted to be out there. Its a tough situation we were in." The Lions only touchdown came late when Stafford found Durham for a 13-yard score. "Just being able to keep them in short and intermediate passes definitely helped us out," linebacker Mike Neal said. "Calvins a big part of their game plan, and without him, I think they put a lot on other guys. It was a big plus for us."

Sammy Baugh Jersey .J. - Trying to learn and absorb the new West Coast offence being installed by new offensive co-ordinator Ben McAdoo, the New York Giants wrapped their final organized team activity Thursday before a three-day mini-camp next week. Geron Christian Jersey .ca presents its latest weekly power rankings for the 2013-14 Barclays Premier League season.ST. LOUIS -- Jeff Fisher has never been afraid to buck a trend, draft a troubled player or grant a second chance. The coach of the Rams stuck with Adam "Pacman" Jones and Kenny Britt when he was at Tennessee, despite their off-field problems. Britt is now reunited with Fisher in St. Louis. Fisher recently rehired Gregg Williams, the defensive co-ordinator who was given a one-year suspension by the league for the bounty scandal with the Saints. It was not a surprise that it was Fisher who helped Michael Sam make history as the first openly gay player drafted by an NFL team. "He is an amazing leader, and even better, hes a better man," said Wade Davis, the head of an advocacy group for lesbian and gay athletes. Davis currently is doing some work with the NFL. "He looks at everything from all angles and hes not afraid to take on a challenge." The 56-year-old Fisher deflects any praise for being a trailblazer, insisting it was simply a football decision to upgrade one of the NFLs top pass rushes by taking Sam at No. 249. "In our world, nobodys going to agree with what you do 100 per cent of the time because everybody has opinions, and thats fine," Fisher said. "Im concerned about whats going on in the building, with the staff and players, the direction were headed. Thats always been the case." At least on the field, Fisher can relate to the challenge for Sam. He also was a seventh-round pick, the fourth wheel of a star-studded Southern California secondary that featured Ronnie Lott, Dennis Smith and Joey Browner. He then carved out a career playing under Mike Ditka for a Super Bowl winner in Chicago and is entering his 19th season as an NFL head coach. Lott, a Hall of Famer, recalls Fisher smoothly making the switch from wide receiver to cornerback. "To me, its easy to play wide receiver because you know where youre going," Lott said. "Having to react, respond and do it with confidence and knowing youre not going to win every play, thats the mindset on defence. The determination he had then has stayed with him." Not long after Sam came out in February, Fisher said hed have no problem having him on the team, that this was an age of diversity. Turns out it wasnt just talk. Several picks before the Rams took Sam, Fisheer broached the subject with owner Stan Kroenke and general manager Les Snead.dddddddddddd Ditka said he wasnt surprised it was Fisher who stepped up when every other team was backing away from Sam. Ditka, who once traded all his draft picks to land Ricky Williams, called it a "pretty gutsy move." Players have fallen in lockstep with their coach on the question of picking Sam. Defensive end Chris Long called it a "football move" and so did linebacker James Laurinaitis. "I dont think it was courageous," Laurinaitis said. "I think its a calculated move by the organization. ... If you have the opportunity to draft a guy that you think is extremely productive and maybe you had a higher grade on him than where he is, you go ahead and take that. I think football-wise, it was a very smart decision." Fisher wouldnt say how far Sam slid on the Rams draft board. The coach joked that divulging that information might affect Sams rookie contract. Titans broadcaster Thom Abraham remembers Fisher in 2009 after Tennessees 0-6 start removing his sport coat, tie and shirt at the podium of a civic function to reveal a Peyton Manning jersey underneath. The punch line: "I just wanted to know what it felt like to be a winner." "Picking Sam did not surprise me one bit," Abraham said of Fisher. "Hes confident in his ability to be out front, and almost represent the NFL." Sam has had several off-season workouts and more practices are on tap this week with the veterans. Long said Sam was working hard and former Missouri teammate, receiver T.J. Moe, said the team viewed Sam simply as someone trying to make it in the NFL. "He is on the team. Theres a 90-man roster, it doesnt go 89 and then Michael Sams over there, this is the gay team, this is the straight team," Moe said. "Michael Sam is on this team and hes treated just like anybody else." And if Sam struggles, nobody that knows Fisher well doubts the coach will have any problem cutting him loose. "He doesnt like doing that part of it," said Brad Hopkins, a former Pro Bowl offensive tackle who played his entire NFL career under Fisher. "But he knows it has to be done, and that you cant make everybody happy."
