FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- One thing you can always count on in sports is that the New England Patriots will never say anything bad about an upcoming opponent.Even when someone like Ben Roethlisberger isnt going to play.Its tough to see any injury for any player, and hes obviously dealing with a significant one, but Im sure theyll still be ready to go, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady said Wednesday, looking ahead to New Englands visit to Pittsburgh to meet the Roethlisberger-less Steelers on Sunday (4:25 p.m. ET, CBS).Theyve got a lot of good players, especially on defense, Brady said. Its a very veteran group, and they play well at home. They lost two games on the road, but were not playing them on the road. Were playing them at home where theyve won them all, so its going to be a big challenge for us.Roethlisberger, injured Sunday during a loss to the Miami Dolphins, underwent left knee surgery and is expected to miss four to six weeks. Landry Jones, who has been no more than so-so during his chances the past two years, is the quarterback as the 4-2 Steelers look to down the 5-1 Patriots.Hes obviously a good quarterback, running back LeVeon Bell said on a conference call Wednesday. I think he has a lot of good things that he can bring to the table. Weve just got to, as a whole entire offense, help him out and get him comfortable and get him confident in himself, and thats when he really will start striking.Bell, of course, and wide receiver Antonio Brown still have to be dealt with, but not having Roethlisberger with those guys has to make a difference.Asked about Bell, Patriots coach Bill Belichick said, Oh my God. Oh yeah, tremendous player. Great hands, catch the ball, very quick, makes people miss. Strong, breaks tackles, excellent balance, tough, doesnt run out of bounds, fights for extra yardage. Great player.Brady returned from his four-game Deflategate suspension two games ago and came out on fire. With Rob Gronkowski recovered from his hamstring injury, Brady is 57 of 75 for 782 yards with six touchdown passes and no interceptions.Brady is 6-2 lifetime against the Steelers with 22 touchdown passes and only three interceptions. His two pick-free games this year extended the teams run of no interceptions through the first six games.The scary thing about Bradys numbers is that he thinks he can even be better, that he has yet to work out all the kinks from the suspension.No ... Im not going to dispute his assessment of his game, Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said. Obviously, from my perspective, hes Tom Brady. Hes got six touchdowns, no interceptions and completing 76 percent of his balls, so from my perspective, we face a stiff challenge. But Im not going to question his perspective regarding his game.Last Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals, Patriots linebacker Donta Hightower dominated the game on that side of the ball, tackling Andy Dalton in the end zone for a safety to start the New England charge, then adding another half-sack later in the second half. He finished with 13 tackles and was named AFC defensive player of the week.The Steelers, who are 3-0 at home, wasted no time in declaring Roethlisberger out of this game, with Tomlin perhaps even sending a mild shot at other coaches (Belichick) when it comes to injury reports.Were a transparent group. We dont hide. We are who we are, he said. He had a surgical procedure to address his knee issue, so to eliminate any potential questions or distractions regarding his availability and get firmly focused on the task at hand with the man playing quarterback thats playing quarterback this week, thats the approach.Jones, who has thrown only one pass this season, was 16 of 29 for 209 yards with one touchdown pass and two interceptions in a loss at Kansas City last season. He had three TD passes and four picks in 2015.Sunday also will be the first game for Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount against the team that released him in 2014 -- after he walked off the bench during a game. Blount has been outstanding so far this season, scoring six touchdowns in six games.Were still very tight, Bell said of Blount. Me and him still talk a lot to this day. Obviously, hes doing great things on the field. I watch his games, he watches my games, we still critique each other and talk about some of the things we did good, some of the things we did bad with one another. Nike Shoes China Wholesale .

RIO DE JANEIRO -- An Olympic champion yet again, Kayla Harrison now has a chance to become an even bigger star.Harrison earned her second straight gold medal in judo on Thursday, winning the 78-kilogram category at the Rio de Janeiro Games. After the bout, she was asked about turning her attention to a professional career in mixed martial arts.She wouldnt say.Im just going to focus on being two-time Olympic champion and decide about punching people in the face at a later date, said Harrison, a friend of MMA star Ronda Rousey.Harrison said she has received multiple offers from various organizations asking her to fight in MMA competitions but has so far turned them all down. Her coach, Jimmy Pedro, said he doubted that she would turn pro, adding she was too nice of a person to do mixed martial arts.After Harrison won the Olympic title in London, she vowed to retire from the competitive grind of the Japanese martial art. She wanted to focus on other things, like becoming a firefighter.That goal, however, kind of dissolved after the last games, she said. She is now planning to spend more time working on her foundation, Fearless, which aims to help victims of sexual abuse. Harrison herself endured years of sexual abuse by a previouus judo coach.ddddddddddddHarrison became the first American to defend an Olympic judo title when she forced Audrey Tcheumeo of France to tap out in the final.With just six seconds left in an otherwise scoreless final, Harrison trapped Tcheumeo in a move that threatened to break her arm, forcing her to submit and handing the American an automatic ippon victory.This is my legacy, Harrison said. I retire as a two-time Olympic champ, one of the greatest the sport has ever seen.Earlier, Harrison won two preliminary fights within minutes after pinning her opponents to the mat for 20 seconds.Tchumeo advanced to the final by beating Myra Aguiar of Brazil. Harrison and Aguiar had been expected to meet in the final.Judo is a sport where the margin of error is slim to none, Pedro said. For Kayla to (defend her title), really is epic.Aguiar and Anamari Velensek won bronze medals.In the mens 100-kilogram division, Lukas Krpalek of the Czech Republic won the countrys first judo gold after defeating Elmar Gasimov of Azerbaijan.The mens bronze medals were won by Cyrille Maret of France and Ryunosoke Haga of Japan.
