Peyton Hillis, Coming off a bye week, the Cleveland Browns on all cylinders dominated New England Patriots, a team that entered the game with the best record in the NFL. This was not a fluke victory by any stretch of the imagination.

On offense, Peyton Hillis could not be stopped, he ran a career-high 184 yards on 29 touches for 2 touchdowns. That includes a nice 35-yard blast that had to end the Patriots in the fourth quarter, forcing New England to make backup Brian Hoyer in the game, and they were losing so bad. Colt McCoy threw the ball only 19 times, but completed 75% of his passes. Congratulations Brian Daboll – the Browns finally had a perfect offensive game, with emphasis on the race, then have a clutch mixed in a few steps today, changed my mind – McCoy is the starting quarterback the rest of the season.

As for the Patriots offense, Tom Brady seemed to be confused with the defense is our team was pulling it. Their receivers struggled to catch the ball, at times, and Rob Grankowski had a costly fumble just before halftime. The Patriots converted just 11.3 of their third downs (27%), which I guess is a low season for them.

The Browns did not stop the creativity and risk taking in this game. They are mixed on kickoffs to keep the ball away from Brandon Tate, and one of those attempts resulted in an accidental kick game recovery. On offense, a version of “fumblerooski” has been executed, with Chansi Stuckey to take on a score. The Browns also converted a fourth and short in its own territory in the first quarter.

In the last two games have been incredible, and not think you can beat the New York Jets next week now? Cleveland could even be promoted taking into account how the Jets to lose to the Lions?

Jared Allen, The least possible scenarios related to Green Bay today’s game the Packers, Minnesota Vikings, and, fans dressed in green and gold to turn the pages of a new book by Jared Allen, probably ranks somewhere between sprint Jermichael Finley in the players tunnel after the onset of curing Reggie White-style and Deanna Favre sent a personalized copy of “The Cure for chronic life of Jenn Sterger.
But despite his dismissal of Aaron Rodgers antics as an excellent defensive end the Packers’ most hated rival, Allen also shares much in common with orange flames from the masses who have been known to fill the cup of Lambo.

That’s why – if you can, just for a moment – forget the countless times he played conclusion calf-rope bag last year, Allen believes you can not only find your new boldly titled “Defender murderer Cookbook helpful. You are – gulp – maybe even enough love.

“Oh, I know they love me there,” said Allen, laughing, when asked that his stay would be Packers fans. “But forget football. If you like hunting, if you like a game, pick up the kitchen.”

Big game hunter who has killed from Canada to New Zealand and even went to hunt wild pigs in Texas is nothing but a knife, Allen is not one to retreat from the problem. That is why the self-proclaimed “redneck” and “adrenaline junkie” is not ashamed to share his philosophy in a cookbook that is part biography, part manifesto and part summary of the recipe.

“I’ve always been a big supporter of that kill you,” said Allen. “I thought it might at first be just a cookbook, but then I started thinking that we should write some stories with the recipes and really make a good read. I want people to get something from it, especially some of the humor.

“After going through the other cookbooks, you tend to see the same thing. You know, marinate the meat of wild animals, this kind of thing. So I told the co-chef (Aaron May), we the church to some of these recipes and give to all this is a completely different style. ”

Along with May – the chef’s favorite restaurant, Lodge of Allen, his offseason home in Scottsdale, Arizona – two joined forces in a series of culinary mixtures, including meatloaf buffalo, wild boar ragout with Fettuccine, Spice Wild Turkey Frittata, cocoa crusted venison sauce and brown sauce Pheasant Nuggets Allen Field, the main house he describes as “a version of chicken Maknugdzhets man.”

The recipes are mixed with stories of parents Allen (he calls his father and grandfather, “the two men is more pronounced in the planet”) and his appreciation for the art of cooking. It also includes the classic Allen-isms like, “Mallett helps when hunting animals because they think you’re one of them” and “Anyone who thinks the kitchen is not manly, it’s probably offensive lineman.”

Allen also said not a great cook, just a master griller. At home, his wife does most of the kitchen, but Allen admits he would like to learn more about the techniques of cold or complex mixtures of spices, including “taking a semester at Le Cordon Bleu.”

Of course, Allen has already caused confusion by claiming that he participated in a fiction “Culinary Academy” during the presentations on-screen player for NBC “Sunday Night Football.” Incidentally, he received a degree in sackology Idaho. His love for food just a consequence of his greatest passion, not football – to be outdoors.

“People probably think:” Oh, play football. I know you are going hunting, “but this is just the opposite,” said Allen. “I find comfort in the forest. This is my time to sit and think and just look around.”

As for spreading the Gospel murderer quarterback Green Bay Packers Allen assured fans that also serve as hunters to get some of his book – even if the cover photo is for darts. You can even throw in a stocking stuffer at Rogers, if he happens to have a clean shot today.

“Yes, definitely I have a copy with me in the field,” said Allen. “No, I’m not sure Aaron Rodgers is a hunter. I do not think that hunting is his style. Maybe we will cross over it.”

Roger Clemens

Roger Clemens, Hall of Fame voters consider that the former star pitcher Roger Clemens, when they may be placed on the ballot in 2012, has zero support.

Not a single SN voters, who become eligible to vote in the Hall of Fame after 10 years of the Baseball Writers Association of America membership, said they would vote for Clemens.

However, Thursday’s news of his being indicted by a federal grand jury do not appear to tip the balance against Clemens, whose number (354-184 4672 strikeouts with more than 4,900 innings pitched in 24 seasons) seems to be worthy of Hall -.

Their decisions appear to have already been thought.

“I do not think a vote for anyone who I believe is a cheat,” said Sporting News baseball columnist Stan McNeal. “I am convinced that he used performance-enhancing drugs, and that makes him a cheater.”

“‘Hall of Fame” and “deception” does not belong to the same phrase, “senior editor Carl Moritz said.

Each of the voters mentioned the concept of being “convinced” of Clemens had “cheated” by using performance enhancers during their careers.

Cardinals hitting coach Mark McGwire, who, like Clemens has numbers worthy of consideration for the Hall, but was criticized for not being forthcoming to Congress, has not been identified in more than 24 percent of the votes in four years of eligibility, despite his 583 career homers.

To be voted into the Hall of Fame, a player must be named on 75 percent of the vote. Many voters have expressed – in votes and comments – the same hesitation to put a check mark beside the name of McGwire as voters Sporting News’ had to say why they will not vote for Clemens.
