The Atlanta Falcons Parris Campbell Jersey , admittedly, have a lot of work remaining.With a fresh burst of confidence, however, the Falcons believe they can continue climbing back into the NFC South race with Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.The Falcons (6-4), last season’s NFC champions, captured their second straight victory Monday night with a 34-31 road win over the Seattle Seahawks.Atlanta held steady behind the Carolina Panthers (7-3) and the first-place New Orleans Saints (8-2), who have won eight straight games after an 0-2 start.Even though Atlanta has two games remaining against the Saints — while also carrying a 5-1 record in NFC games to help tiebreaker possibilities — quarterback Matt Ryan said his team can’t look further than Sunday’s meeting against the Bucs (4-6).“It’s one of those things that if we handle our business, things will work out just fine,” Ryan said. “I can’t worry about what other people are doing because we have no control. I certainly know where we’re at, but we’re focused on taking care of our business.”The Falcons were wounded by three consecutive defeats against AFC East teams in October. But now they’re on a two-game winning streak and have their next three contests at home, providing a potential opportunity to make up some ground.“We’re getting the outcome we want now,” Falcons receiver Julio Jones said. “Winning will breed more swagger and more confidence.”The Bucs have acquired some confidence http://www.ravenscheapstores.com/miles-boykin-jersey-cheap , too.Just when Tampa Bay’s season appeared to be unraveling — with a five-game losing streak and a shoulder injury that sidelined quarterback Jameis Winston — the Bucs rallied around veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick and responded with two straight victories.Fitzpatrick will start Sunday against the Falcons, who were beaten by Winston the past two seasons at home. Winston’s shoulder was evaluated Monday and doctors said he wasn’t ready to resume throwing.So Fitzpatrick, who completed 22 of 37 passes for 275 yards in Sunday’s 30-20 win against the Miami Dolphins, will start his third straight game for Tampa Bay.“My confidence (in Fitzpatrick) is the same, but I am sure other people’s (confidence) has grown,” Bucs coach Dirk Koetter said. “Ryan has done exactly what I thought he would do, but I can understand why other people who haven’t seen him in practice would not necessarily expect that. He’s playing how I thought he would play.”Koetter said he was most impressed with Fitzpatrick’s ability to avoid mistakes.“Ryan made really good decisions,” Koetter said. “We didn’t turn the ball over. We say every week in our meetings that if we don’t turn it over, we’ve got a great chance to win.“It starts with that. But no matter how much of a veteran quarterback you are, throwing the ball away when the play is not there is still to this day one of the hardest things to get a quarterback to do. Ryan did a good job of that.”The Falcons know first-hand about the challenge offered by Winston, but also expressed respect for Fitzpatrick, who is playing with his seventh different NFL team.“Fitzpatrick is a very good quarterback http://www.coltscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-bobby-okereke-jersey Jersey ,” Falcons safety Ricardo Allen said. “He has been doing it for a while and there’s a reason he has been doing it for a while. There’s a reason he’s in the league still.”Falcons coach Dan Quinn said he’s wary of Fitzpatrick’s ability to involve Tampa Bay’s offensive players, including receivers Mike Evans and DeSean Jackson, along with rookie tight end O.J. Howard, a first-round draft pick.“You can see the different weapons that are coming alive,” Quinn said.Overall, though, Quinn said he’s confident in the Falcons’ ability to move forward by continuing to play well on both sides of the ball.That’s what happened against the Seahawks.“What an absolute team win,” Quinn said. “We talked about that connection between offensive and defense and special teams, almost like a relay team, passing the baton to the next group, to go after it again.”The Falcons had a season-low 279 yards against the Seahawks, but made enough plays to gain an advantage. Another key was a fumble-return touchdown by Falcons defensive lineman Adrian Clayborne Noah Fant Jersey , one week after he registered six sacks against the Dallas Cowboys.The Falcons secured the victory when Seattle’s Blair Walsh came up just short on a 52-yard field-goal attempt on the game’s final play.That allowed Atlanta to remain close in the NFC South.“We know how tough our division is,” Quinn said.“We pay attention to each game as they come,” Falcons receiver Mohamed Sanu said. “You’ve got to be 1-0 each week. We’ve got to worry about us.” DAVIE, Fla. (AP) — Miami Dolphins defensive end William Hayes will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL he suffered trying to avoid a roughing-the-passer penalty.Hayes was hurt when he sacked Oakland’s Derek Carr during Miami’s 28-20 victory Sunday.“He was trying to not put body weight on the quarterback,” coach Adam Gase said Monday. “His foot got caught in the ground.”Hayes leads the Dolphins with two sacks. His loss is costly even though the front four was the Dolphins’ deepest area.“He’s one of our leaders and best run defender,” Gase said. “That’s going to be a tough one for us to swallow.Injuries to defensive end Andre Branch (knee), tight end A.J. Derby (foot) and linebacker Chase Allen (foot) were still being evaluated but did not appear to be season-ending, Gase said.The loss of Hayes, Branch and defensive tackle Akeem Spence, who was ejected, left Miami with only six defensive linemen. Offensive tackle Jesse Davis filled in as an emergency defender during a goal-line situation.
