ORCHARD PARK, N. Emmanuel Mudiay Jersey .Y. – Bills quarterback EJ Manuel has no intention of taking the first benching of his career sitting down.Manuel on Thursday accepted his demotion as something he has to live with and acknowledged having plenty of room to develop. More importantly, the 2013 first-round draft pick plans to work harder to improve his game and vowed Im not going to hold myself back when the next opportunity to start presents itself.I just want to cut it loose, man, Manuel said in his first comments since losing the starting job to veteran backup Kyle Orton on Monday. I think at some point in your career, when youre mad or you just want to open up, you just go out there and let it rip. You dont worry about the repercussions.And, he added: If something happens, at least you went down guns loaded or guns blowing or whatever.Manuels failure to let it rip was among the key reasons behind his demotion, which came after two consecutive losses dropped Buffalos record to 2-2.Manuel was knocked for being hesitant, struggling with his accuracy and having difficulty finding open receivers downfield.The last straw came in a 23-17 loss at Houston on Sunday, when Manuel went 21 of 44 with two touchdowns and two interceptions. Though he completed an 80-yard touchdown pass to Mike Williams, Manuels next longest completion was a short pass over the middle to Fred Jackson, who turned it into a 14-yard gain.Manuels first interception was costly. Texans defensive end J.J. Watt returned it 80 yards for a momentum-swinging touchdown that put Houston ahead 14-10 early in the second half.A day later, coach Doug Marrone handed the job to Orton, who will make his debut as Buffalos starter at Detroit (3-1) on Sunday.It is a tough pill to swallow, Manuel said. But at the same time, Im going to always be positive with myself. And I still believe Im a good football player. And I know theres tons of room for me to grow, and Ill get there.The question is when.Orton has quickly made a good impression with his teammates two days into practice.Receivers Sammy Watkins and Robert Woods both noted Orton for having a quicker release and how he immediately established a presence in the huddle.The demotion is the latest setback for Manuel, whose development was stunted already by three separate knee injuries that limited him to playing just 10 games last year. Its also a setback for the Bills, who were counting on Manuel to grow into a position thats been mostly unsettled since Hall of Famer Jim Kelly retired after the 1996 season.Manuel, who led Florida State to four bowl victories, was the first quarterback taken in the 2013 draft when the Bills selected him 16th overall.He refused to allow the benching to be a distraction for him or the team.The teams bigger than I am. And whatever (Marrone) feels is best to help the team, well go with it, Manuel said. Im not going to be one of those guys around here moping.Hes also confident he will bounce back.When I am back out there, I want to be a different player, Manuel said. I think in the long run, Ill look back at it as something I can say that helped build me, and helped me become a stronger man.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL Wilson Chandler Jersey . Playing in his fourth major league game, Polanco broke a tie in the 13th inning with his first homer, helping Pittsburgh to an 8-6 victory over the Miami Marlins after the Pirates had a ninth-inning meltdown. Kenneth Faried Jersey . To be fair, the celebrations are already anything but tame. Nerf ball tricks shots are just the tip of the iceberg for a group that has performed in zero gravity, faced pro-skateboarder Rob Dyrdek and an assembled team on the MTV series “Fantasy Factory”, and even hit a basketball trick shot from a passing blimp.CINCINNATI – Andy Dalton knows that its mostly on him.Dalton has played poorly in the Bengals three straight playoff losses, a main factor in extending their post-season futility. Cincinnati hasnt won a playoff game since the 1990 season, which ties for the sixth-longest such stretch in NFL history.Although hes gotten his team to the playoffs in each of his four seasons, Daltons legacy so far is more about how hes fallen apart in the biggest games. *** have another chance to change his reputation on Sunday when the Bengals (10-5-1) play at Indianapolis (11-5).Winning in general is how quarterbacks are judged, Dalton said on Wednesday. If you win a lot in the regular season but you havent won a lot in the post-season, then theyre going to say that you couldnt do something.Theres always going to be something that you havent done or couldnt do, he said. Thats just the nature of it.During the regular season, Dalton has been as good as anyone in Bengals history. Hes won 63 per cent of his games, the best by a Bengals quarterback. He and Baltimores Joe Flacco are the only quarterbacks to lead their teams to the playoffs in each of their first four seasons during the Super Bowl era.Flacco won a Super Bowl. Dalton has yet to win anything in the post-season. During two losses in Houston and one last season at home against San Diego, Dalton has thrown for one touchdown and six interceptions, leaving him with a post-season passer rating of 56.2.Dalton is one loss shy of tying Warren Moon for most consecutive opening-round defeats by a starting quarterback.Dalton was virtually mistake-free during the Bengals 3-0 start this season. During the last five games, hes thrown seven interceptions and had a game-turning fumble on a handoff.As Ive said, this is still a process, offensive co-ordinator Hue Jackson said. I think hes done some really good things; I think there are some plays he wishes he had back.But hes a seasoned, veeteran player whos been in this situation before and now its time to come out on the other side of it, Jackson added. Gary Harris Jersey. So he understands the environment were going into, he understands all the elements that are laid before him — I think our whole team does.The Bengals had their worst offensive showing of the season at Indianapolis on Oct. 19, failing to cross midfield until the fourth quarter during a 27-0 loss, their first shutout in five years. With receiver A.J. Green sidelined by an injured right big toe, Dalton completed only 18 of 38 for 126 yards and was sacked three times.Its unclear whether Green will be available for the rematch. He got a concussion during a loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday night and was held out of practice on Wednesday. He has to pass concussion tests before he can practice or play.Daltons teammates have tried to take some of the focus off the quarterbacks post-season failures by sharing the blame.All of us have lost together, left tackle Andrew Whitworth said on Wednesday. The truth of the matter is, its not a negative to be in the playoffs every year. Thats a positive. Its just the negative is not taking advantage of the opportunity.So it means youve done a lot to get there every single year, he said. Now lets take advantage of that opportunity, and thats whats great about the playoffs.NOTES: Tight end Jermaine Gresham also sat out practice on Wednesday with a sore back. … With wind chills well below freezing, the Bengals took buses to the University of Cincinnatis covered practice field. They dont have one of their own. … The Bengals put receiver Dane Sanzenbacher on injured reserve with a concussion and promoted receiver Cobi Hamilton from the practice squad. Hamilton was with the Bengals in the preseason, spent three games with Philadelphia, and rejoined Cincinnatis practice squad.___Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Ducks Jerseys Cheap Coyotes Jerseys Cheap Bruins Jerseys Cheap Sabres Jerseys Cheap Flames Jerseys Cheap Hurricanes Jerseys Cheap Blackhawks Jerseys Cheap Avalanche Jerseys Cheap Blue Jackets JerseysCheap Stars Jerseys Cheap Red Wings Jerseys Cheap Oilers Jerseys Cheap Florida Panthers Jerseys Cheap Los Angeles Kings Jerseys Cheap Wild Jerseys ‘ ‘ ‘
