(SportsNetwork.com) - For Tom Brady, the feeling must have been familiar. For rookie Jimmy Garoppolo, it was surreal when the New England Patriots team plane touched down in Arizona on Monday. You sit back and youre like, Am I really going to the Super Bowl? Garoppolo said Tuesday at media day for Super Bowl XLIX. Its exciting; you want to soak it in, but at the same time you want to be prepared. The backup quarterback is supposed to be the most popular guy in town, but it would be hard to find a fan in Patriots Nation hoping to see Garoppolo in action Sunday when Brady tries to lead New England to a fourth Super Bowl title in his sixth try, this time against the defending world champion Seattle Seahawks. Yet as the No. 2 quarterback behind Brady, Garoppolo understands youre one snap away from being thrust into something much greater than carrying a clipboard. So the former FCS All-American from Eastern Illinois University, who was the 2013 Walter Payton Award winner after throwing for over 5,000 yards as a senior, has to prepare himself for a moment which may never happen. Youve got to play like that, Bradys 23-year-old understudy said. Ive definitely gotten more confident throughout the year. Growing from being a rookie in mini-camp to where I am now, I feel a lot more confident. Garoppolo has appeared in parts of six regular-season games - completing 19- of-27 attempts for 182 yards plus a touchdown in a Monday night game - as well as at the end of the Deflategate win over the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC Championship Game. But it wont be like hes lining up against Austin Peay or Tennessee Tech if he were to take meaningful snaps against the Seahawks. Having come from a football family, Garoppolo says being a part of the Super Bowl was something he dreamed about as a kid. But he also knows this is a business trip for the Patriots, and his main focus is on preparation. We have to execute. We have a good game plan and everything, but you have to go out there and execute it on Sunday and do our best, Garoppolo said. Its been a crazy year, thats for sure. Its been very fast, but a very long year at the same time. Ive been doing football for over a year straight now. One of the other rookies was talking about it with me and its been crazy. I wouldnt have it any other way. Zapatillas Asics España .

Marie rink got back in the win column at the Olympic mens curling tournament with a 7-4 win over the host Russian squad on Wednesday.Each week, TSN.ca Fantasy Editor Scott Cullen and NFL Editors Ben Fisher and Mike Hetherington discuss three hot fantasy football topics. If he remains healthy, will CJ Spiller return to RB1 status this year? Cullen: I think there was some market over-correction on Spiller this year, because he was so disappointing last season, scoring only two touchdowns after so much was promised in the preseason – remember, when he would "run until he throws up" – so I could very easily see Spiller being a viable RB1 by seasons end. The challenge is how many touches he will get and, on one hand, having a shaky quarterback likely makes the Bills lean towards running the ball more. On the other hand, Fred Jackson and even depth guys Anthony Dixon or Bryce Brown will compete for carries. Fisher: If running backs continue to get hurt at the rate they are this season, and Spiller isnt one of them, then sure, I can see him sneak into the Top 10. But theres too many better backs, and Spiller is still too inconsistent - especially with Fred Jackson stealing carries in Buffalo – to be considered a Top 10 lock. Hes now just barely on the brink of Top 10 with his kick return touchdown in Week 2. If you drafted Spiller it was likely as a low-end RB2; hell still pay you dividends, just not as much as you may be hoping for through two weeks. Hetherington: In order for the Buffalo Bills to be successful this year, they must run the ball. Spiller is the most explosive back on their roster and should take over the role of the feature back within a matter of weeks. Spiller and Fred Jackson each received 12 carries against the Dolphins but Spiller averaged 5.8 yards per carry to Jacksons 2.0. Going forward, the Bills will likely be a run-first team but if Manuel can continue to be proficient in the passing game, Spiller will benefit with less eight-man box looks. Hes already a solid RB2 in my mind and will likely be a RB1 within a matter of weeks as Jackson slips lower on the fantasy radar. The Bills simply have no choice but to get the ball into Spillers hands. Which QB, if any, will end Peyton Manning and Drew Brees mini-reign atop the QB rankings? Cullen: The way is Brees is going, there could be several (okay, as a Brees owner, Im venting). At this point, to me, the only viable candidates to move up into the Top 2 are the guys I had ranked three and four in the preseason – Matthew Stafford and Aaron Rodgers. Both have the ability to throw for 5000 yards and 30 touchdowns, and that will get a quarterback into that discussion. If I was going to reach a little more, Id consider Atlantas Matt Ryan, who could put up big numbers if Julio Jones and Roddy White stay healthy. Fisher: Its obviously early, but through two weeks neither Manning nor Brees has looked as impressive as they did the past while. But even so, the two are QB1s who could find their pace from last year any week. There are a couple QBs who could give Manning and Brees a run for their money but none Im willing to anoint the new No. 1s. Manning and Brees may not lead their position in scoring to the same degree they have recently, but their consistency shhould see them to the top of the rankings by seasons end.dddddddddddd. Hetherington: These two, not surprisingly, should remain in the top-five throughout the season. However, Aaron Rodgers and Andrew Luck both represent threats to take over the top spot. Rodgers, while keyed-in on Jordy Nelson, threw for 346 yards and three touchdowns against the Jets in Week 2 and faces another favourable matchup against the Lions secondary this weekend. If Rodgers stays in the groove he found late in the second quarter against the Jets, he will have a very strong season. Luck struggled in Week 2, but has six touchdowns (including a rushing score) so far this season. Luck is an elite-QB1 this week facing the Jacksonville Jaguars, while Manning plays the dominant Seahawks defence in Seattle. Brees should stay at the top playing at home against the Vikings. Are there any “backup” running backs youre comfortable with in your starting lineups? Cullen: In situations where there is a clear No. 1 guy, Id consider Darren Sproles, Jeremy Hill and Ahmad Bradshaw on a pretty regular basis. Then time-share guys like Joique Bell (Reggie Bush), Chris Ivory (Chris Johnson), Justin Forsett (Bernard Pierce) and Shane Vereen (Stevan Ridley) would all be reasonable choices when it comes to Flex spots. There is such a lack of depth at the running back position that anyone who can contribute consistent numbers, even in a backup role, has to be considered fair game. Fisher: As much as half the leagues backup running backs are owned in fantasy leagues, but there are only a couple I would be comfortable starting weekly. Behind maybe the best fantasy back in the league, Darren Sproles is currently outscoring LeSean McCoy and sitting near the top of the rankings through two weeks of the season. There was some concern the small back would lose the opportunities that made him a strong play in New Orleans once getting traded to Philly, but he continues to prove hes too talented to keep on the bench. Sproles probably wont keep his RB1 status all year, but he should be a decent bet as an RB2 or at worst a flex play. Im also high on Ahmad Bradshaw. While he plays more than “starter” Trent Richardson overall, Richardson still has more carries. That will probably change at some point this year. Hetherington: Ahmad Bradshaw and Chris Ivory are two backups who should be owned - and played - like starters. Bradshaw is coming off a monster performance against the Eagles, when he emerged with 70 rushing yards on 13 attempts, while starter Trent Richardson had 79 yards on 21 carries. Bradshaw also emerged as a pass-catching weapon with five receptions and two touchdowns. On the Colts, Bradshaw is the better fantasy own. Ivory continues to split snaps with Chris Johnson this season but has clearly been the better back. The Jets will likely reward Ivory with more carries going forward and being the goal-line back alone makes him a worthy RB2 or FLEX play. Danny Woodhead of the Chargers could also warrant a start in points per reception leagues. Fantasy Football Report powered by Coors Light ' ' '
