Watch New Orleans vs Houston Live Stream NFL Live on your pc with HD quality. Two of the NFL's most high-powered offenses will be on display when the Saints (1-0) and Texans face off for a preseason game on Saturday night at Reliant Stadium at Houston. The Texans are favored by 1 1/2 points. However, defenses stood out for both teams in their opening victories.
The Saints were stifling on defense in last week's 24-3 victory over the 49ers, while an overhauled Texans defense drew high marks for its first effort under new coordinator Wade Phillips in Monday night's 20-16 home victory over the Jets, two-time AFC runners-up.
Houston routinely had trouble stopping the opposition during their disappointing 6-10 season of 2010, but were able to unleash a furious pass rush on the Jets. The Texans racked up seven sacks and was credited with 16 quarterback pressures with their reserves creating the majority of the havoc.
The Saints' defense produced plenty of pressure of its own, amassing six sacks and a pair of interceptions while limiting the out-of-sync 49ers to a mere 234 total yards.
The Texans will get back several top players from injuries for the Saints and coach Gary Kubiak plans to play his starters for most of the first two quarters.
Per the Houston Chronicle, if there was concern regarding Arian Foster's mindset, specifically whether the previous 10 days he'd spent nursing a nagging hamstring injury had any lingering mental effect on the Texans running back, it was alleviated after Wednesday's practice.
Asked how many reps he might need should he start on Saturday against the Saints, Foster replied, "62."
"It's a science. man," he told the Chronicle. "It's science." Foster was the NFL's leading rusher last season.
Texans running back Ben Tate said he has recovered enough from a hamstring injury to play against the Saints. Texans All-NFL receiveer Andre Johnson said he'd play despite a dislocated finger early in training camp. Running backs Derrick Ward (concussion) and Steve Slaton (hamstring) will be inactive. The same goes for linebacker Brian Cushing (knee).
Saints quarterback Drew Brees should get a few more reps in this game and should be buoyed by the expected return of his No. 1 receiver, Marcus Colston, who has been cleared to play after resting his surgically repaired knee.
One position battle to watch for with the Saints will be at right tackle, where six-year pro Zach Strief and second-year man Charles Brown are competing for the spot left open by the recent release of Jon Stinchcomb.
KC Joyner passed along a copy of "The Football Scientist Fantasy Football Draft Guide" for 2011. Of the Saints, Joyner wrote: "Drew Brees had something of an off year in 2010 because of a variety of factors. This year could see a turnaround from a health perspective, but he could still have an off year due to the brutal schedule.
The guide quantifies items of this nature through a matchup strength number. The matchup strength takes a look at a variety of defensive metrics (both for individual players and for the team as a whole) and assigns points based on where they rank league-wide. The more favorable matchups are given to higher point totals, so the more matchup points someone has, the better.
Brees has 64 matchup points, a total that ranks tied for dead last among quarterbacks. Since the Saints are on the opposite side of that ledger in the running game (their 36 matchup strength points in that category ranked tied for 3rd), it could very well be that this is a season where they lean on the ground attack more than usual.
The Saints traded back into the first round to get running back Mark Ingram and there's little doubt they are going to use him a lot.
The Saints and Texans are scheduled to play one another again in Week 3 of the regular season.
The Saints will fly to Oxnard, Cal., immediately after the game where they will train for their final week of camp. Spending a week in Oxnard makes sense on many levels for the Saints. They have to travel to the West Coast anyway for a game with the Raiders. It's just as easy to come out early and get some quality practices in under the cool temperatures Oxnard provides. It's extremely hot and humid in New Orleans this time of year and that limits how much time and how hard the Saints can practice.
Because of the lockout, teams are playing catch-up this year. The cooler temperatures in Oxnard will make it easier for Payton and his staff to get their team ready because they can practice longer and harder.

Watch Atlanta vs Jacksonville Live Stream NFL Live on your pc with HD quality. The Falcons enter Friday's game coming off a 28-23 loss to the Miami Dolphins in their preseason opener despite a solid outing from rookie wideout Julio Jones. The sixth overall pick in the 2011 Draft caught two passes for 43 yards and rushed for 12 yards on a reverse before the Falcons pulled him from the game, encased him in bubble wrap, and safely stowed him at an undisclosed location. Atlanta lost in part due to its inabiliy to stop The Big Play, yielding touchdowns on a 44-yard pass and a 75-yard punt return.
One has to figure the Falcons will continue to feature Jones during the few series he'll play, and look to tighten up its defense and special-teams play so as to not give up more Big Plays.
The Jaguars lost their preseason opener, 47-12, to the New England Patriots. Jacksonville managed just 193 yards of total offense, while the Patriots tallied 476 yards and only punted once. As bad as the Jaguars' offense was, its defense proved more inept, though it ought to have been encouraging that rookie quarterback Blaine Gabbert played reasonably well (9-of-16 passing, 85 yards, no touchdowns or interceptions) in his NFL debut. They'll need an all-around improvement to keep pace with Atlanta.

Watch Arizona vs Green Bay Live Stream NFL Live on your pc with HD quality. GREEN BAY, Wis. — A challenging week of practice in warm conditions and injuries to some key players have left the Green Bay Packers possibly undermanned for Friday’s preseason game against Arizona.
The team held a light workout that lasted just 45 minutes Thursday as final preparations were made for the first game at Lambeau Field since the Packers won the Super Bowl last season.
All-Pro linebacker Clay Matthews (hamstring), defensive end Mike Neal (knee) and running back James Starks (ankle) didn’t participate. Their status for the game won’t be determined until Friday.
“This was the challenge week for our football team,” coach Mike McCarthy said. “I think it was evident - three full practices, 2 ½ hours long (each of the previous three days), coming off a night schedule in the heat of the day.”
Matthews, who led the Packers with 17 sacks last season, has endured hamstring problems in training camp since he was a rookie in 2009. He didn’t play in a preseason game last year, and the team limited him to only four plays in the preseason opener at Cleveland on Saturday.
“I’d say this year is better than the last two years,” McCarthy said. “(But) we’re always going to play the high side of caution because of his history.”
The potential absence of Matthews on Friday could give more playing time to the three players battling for the starting spot opposite Matthews at outside linebacker: Frank Zombo, Erik Walden and Brad Jones. Zombo started against the Browns, but Walden spent most of this week working with the first-string defense.
Defensive coordinator Dom Capers said Thursday a decision had yet to be made on who will be the starter Friday.
“They’ve all played and played pretty good for us at times,” Capers said.
Capers had cause for concern during practice Tuesday, when he watched the left knee of Neal buckle in a non-contact drill.
Neal limped off the field under his own power, but he didn’t practice the rest of the week. He is the presumptive replacement in the starting lineup for Cullen Jenkins, who left the team in free agency.
“You never want to lose a player,” Capers said. “But in a drill where he’s slapping the bag and going over the bag, I was concerned, obviously, like I think everybody was.”
A day after McCarthy said Neal didn’t need a medical scan for the knee, the coach clarified Thursday that the second-year player had an MRI test done, which revealed a knee sprain. Neal’s status remained day to day.
Starks has been battling veteran Ryan Grant for a starting job behind an offensive line that is unsettled at the midway point of camp. McCarthy on Thursday chose T.J. Lang as the starter at left guard for the game ahead of rookie Derek Sherrod, who made the start in the opener.
“I’m definitely excited about getting out there tomorrow,” Lang said. “It’s going to be a huge step for me. If I can go in there and play the way I’ve been playing, only good things will happen. But it’s still a competition going on.”
Meanwhile, veteran cornerback Charles Woodson and talented tight end Jermichael Finley are expected to get their first preseason action Friday.
Capers indicated the first-string defense, which also should have nickel back Sam Shields back after he missed the opener because of a hip injury, would go for about 15 to 20 plays.
Finley, who hasn’t played since he suffered a season-ending knee injury last October, anticipates having a cameo appearance of only one series as he gets back to working with quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
“I’ve got all of the coaches saying don’t get too excited and go out there and get too jacked up,” Finley said. “But I’m going to be jacked up. That’s me; that’s my personality. I’ll be ready. I’ll be like a little kid in the candy store.”
Notes: McCarthy declared five injured players out for Friday’s game: rookie defensive end Lawrence Guy, safeties Brandon Underwood and Anthony Levine and offensive linemen Adrian Battles and Chris Campbell. . The Packers unofficially broke camp Thursday as they moved out of their dorm rooms at nearby St. Norbert College in De Pere, Wis. The team holds all camp practices at its facilities across the street from Lambeau Field. . Players showed their appreciation to the fans after Thursday’s workout by throwing and even using slingshots to send T-shirts, pompons and water balloons into the bleachers at the outdoor practice field. “We just wanted to give back and have some fun,” McCarthy said. “It’s amazing what people do for a free T-shirt.”

Watch Carolina vs Miami Live Stream NFL Live on your pc with HD quality. Cam Newton is going to make the start for the Panthers on Friday night vs. the Dolphins, and we know where this is going if the rookie puts up some solid production.
Newton ran with the second team last week vs. the Giants, and now we get to see how he plays against starting defensive talent in Miami. Its only the preseason, right? Not for Newton—because this is a true opportunity to win a starting job.
Let’s be honest here. If the No.1 overall pick goes out and gets the job done, can you see any reason why Ron Rivera wouldn’t name the rookie his opening day starter over Jimmy Clausen moving forward? He wasn't drafted in Carolina to watch from the sidelines.
However, there is still some work to be done by Newton before we can call him the starter.
Going into the first weekend of preseason games, I broke down how to grade rookie QBs as they took the field for the first time. And those still apply. Manage the game plan; throw the 3-step route tree, read coverages, etc.
But the key for Newton is turnovers. Can’t have them. That has to be the top priority for the rookie as he heads to the stadium tomorrow night. Protect the football at all costs.
Yes, you want to see Newton attack defenses, show patience in the pocket (everyone knows what he can do in the open field) and use the vertical passing game. But the last thing Rivera and the coaching staff wants to deal with is turnovers.
Those kill drives, take points off the board and put your defense in adverse situations on the field. Plus, they make coaching staffs sick on the sidelines.
I’m excited to watch him play. It’s a big opportunity for a player that I believe can be a special talent in this league. But he still has to come out and produce in his first true test in the NFL.

Springboks vs All blacks Live Stream
Match scheduled
Dated: Saturday 20 August
Time: 17.00 Local.
Watch Springboks vs All blacks Live Stream Tri Nation Live on your pc with HD quality. The All Blacks have named their team to face the Springboks in a TriNations test with Keven Mealamu being named as captain.
The All Blacks have rested 9 of their first choice players for this match including Dan Carter, captain Richie McCaw, number eight Kieran Read, lock Brad Thorn, prop Owen Franks, fullback Mils Muliaina and centre Conrad Smith.
Hooker Mealamu has been named as All Blacks captain for the second time in a Test after he captained the All Blacks against Scotland in November 2008.
The starting XV sees first five-eighth Colin Slade make his second run-on start in his fifth Test, Jimmy Cowan is at halfback, while in the forwards Liam Messam is at number eight, Adam Thomson is at openside flanker, Sam Whitelock returns to the second row alongside Ali Williams and John Afoa returns from his eye socket injury at tighthead prop.
The starting XV also features the return of a number of other recently-injured All Blacks to the Test side for the first time in 2011.
The All Blacks most capped prop Tony Woodcock returns to the front row, while in the backs Richard Kahui is at centre, pairing with Sonny Bill Williams in the midfield for the first time; Isaia Toeava is on the right wing, and Israel Dagg, who scored a memorable try in last year's Test against the Springboks in Soweto, is at fullback.
This weekend's Test will feature a number of milestones for a trio of All Blacks, Blues and Auckland teammates: Mealamu will play his 85th Test, Woodcock will play his 75th, while Ali Williams will pull on the black jersey for his 65th Test.
All Blacks Coach Graham Henry said the All Blacks had had a great build-up in Port Elizabeth and the team was feeling refreshed and raring to go.
"There is excitement across the board in the squad and every player will be looking to put in a big performance this weekend. Playing the Springboks at home is always a massive occasion and with Rugby World Cup spots also up for grabs, our players will be looking to put in a big performance.
"We know we will also be facing a wounded Springboks side who will want to bounce back from their three losses on the trot so we will have to be ready for a huge physical contest."
The All Blacks and Springboks have played each other 82 times, with 46 wins to the All Blacks, 33 to South Africa and three draws. The All Blacks have played the Springboks four times in Port Elizabeth (1928, 1949, 1960 and 1970), with victories to South Africa on every occasion.
All Blacks Starting XV:
Number of Test caps in brackets
1. Tony Woodcock (74) , 2. Keven Mealamu - captain (84) , 3. John Afoa (32) , 4. Samuel Whitelock (16) , 5. Ali Williams (64) , 6. Jerome Kaino (40) , 7. Adam Thomson (20) , 8. Liam Messam (8) , 9.

Philadelphia vs Pittsburgh Live Stream

Time: 8:00 PM
Watch Philadelphia vs Pittsburgh Live Stream NFL Live on your pc with HD quality. When the Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers face off in the preseason for the 36th time at Heinz Field on Friday, we could be getting a Super Bowl preview in just the third week of August.
But should the Eagles and Steelers each be considered favorites for their respective conferences?
The Eagles have certainly put themselves at the forefront of the Super Bowl talk with one of the most impressive offseason hauls in NFL history.
Philadelphia has acquired, via trade or free agency, 14 players—six of which are former Pro Bowlers.
Leading that list is cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha, who many consider one of the top two or three cornerbacks in the NFL. He'll immediately bring the shutdown presence that championship teams now need in this era of football.
Just landing Asomugha would have made for a positive offseason for most teams, but GM Howie Roseman and the Eagles were a greedy bunch once the lockout was lifted.
They signed defensive end Jason Babin (12.5 sacks in 2010), defensive lineman Cullen Jenkins (one of the better interior pass rushers in the NFL), receiver Steve Smith (just two years removed from catching 107 passes), quarterback Vince Young (two-time Pro Bowler), Ronnie Brown (4,815 career rushing yards) and also traded for cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (2009 Pro Bowler).
That's a pretty impressive list of additions for a team that won 11 games and the NFC East title last season.
However, the Eagles won't have a cakewalk through the NFC. Both of last year's conference title game participants reside in the NFC North and the NFC South has three teams that won 10 games last season.
The Super Bowl champion Packers have most of their key pieces back and will be explosive on both offense and defense. Green Bay GM Ted Thompson has assembled a roster with arguably more talent than Philadelphia while rarely dipping into free agency.
Chicago, Green Bay's divisional rival, is coming off an NFC North title and a trip to the NFC Championship game last season and could still potentially be a threat.
The NFC South is jam-packed with talented teams, too. The Saints, Falcons and Buccaneers should all have their eye on the playoffs. New Orleans and Atlanta are both considered bona fide Super Bowl contenders heading into the season.
While calling the Eagles the favorite in the conference is premature, they'll definitely be in the running. Philadelphia will be picked by plenty to make the conference championship and potentially be the conference's Super Bowl participant.
The Steelers, on the other hand, had their annual quiet offseason transaction-wise, but that's a formula that's worked for them. Their big moves were re-signing Ike Taylor and giving linebacker LaMarr Woodely the extension he earned.
Last season, Pittsburgh made their second Super Bowl in three years, and they'll aim to make it three out of four in 2011. They should have the ammunition to take their best shot, too.
Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, despite what anyone feels about him off the field, is a winner and underappreciated player at his position. I don't see the winning part of that equation changing this season.
The rest of the offense has plenty of weapons, including Mike Wallace (21-yard per catch average, 10 touchdowns), Rashard Mendenhall (1,273 rushing yards, 13 touchdowns) and Hines Ward (755 yards receiving). Former Jet Jericho Cotchery could provide another receiving threat for Roethlisberger and company.
However, like it's been for so many years, the Steelers' season rests on the play of their defense. If that group continues to play as well as it has in recent years, the Steelers will be contenders again in the AFC.
They'll have company in those ranks, as the Patriots, Jets, Colts and Chargers appear to also have Super Bowl-ready rosters.
New England leads that group, and they'll likely be most people's favorite to represent the AFC in Super Bowl XLVI. However, the Steelers probably wouldn't have it any other way, as they are seemingly overlooked every season.
In summary, tonight's Eagles-Steelers preseason matchup very well could be a Super Bowl preview in August. But it's still far too early to start booking flights from Philly and Pittsburgh to Indianapolis.
Both teams are definitely contenders, and strong contenders at that, but each conference has too many talented teams to consider either one a favorite.

New England vs Tampa Bay Live Stream
Match scheduled
Dated: Thur, 18th August.
Time: 7:30 PM
Watch New England vs Tampa Bay Live Stream NFL Live on your pc with HD quality. Now things really get interesting.
The team moves into the next segment of the preseason with its first home exhibition game Thursday night against a New England Patriots team that scored 47 points last week -- without superstar quarterback Tom Brady at the helm.
After weeks of working out in front of cheering and excited fans packing makeshift bleachers at One Buccaneer Place, the Bucs will stage their first closed practice of the summer Wednesday to prepare for the Pats.
And after a weekend off courtesy of head coach Raheem Morris, the players will resume their grueling practices next week, vying for roster spots as cut-down days and two more preseason contests (Aug. 27 vs. Miami and Sept. 1 at Washington) loom in the coming weeks.
For the record, Morris expressed his pleasure over how camp went -- highlighted by the team's the first preseason test on Friday, a 25-0 road win over the Kansas City Chiefs.
"I think the assessment was the other night, with those guys coming out and playing fast, playing smart, playing hard and playing consistent throughout," he said in his post-practice press briefing. "We can still get better. There are a lot of places to improve. . . . We'll continue to grow. I feel good about it."
Coming into camp out of an extended lockout, it was hard for NFL teams to know what to expect once players arrived and began workouts. But Morris remarked that he had high expectations from the start and wasn't disappointed.
"I didn't expect us to have a big drop-off," he said. "I have some high character, quality young men. So I wasn't expecting to see a lot of people come back out of shape and all that stuff. . . . We still have a lot of room to get better, but I look forward to getting better."
Morris was happy with what he called "good, hard, physical play" during camp. He also noticed some interesting differences between this year and 2010.
"I think you've seen guys coming back knowing exactly what we're going to do in some of the situations we talk about," he said. "What's been different (than last year) was seeing Josh (Freeman) teach quarterbacks and younger receivers. And watching (linebackers) Quincy Black and Geno Hayes really form that role for Mason Foster, and watching a (Gerald) McCoy come back and really grab (rookie defensive end Adrian) Clayborn and show him what we're going to do . . . That would be the difference -- seeing some of your players who are coming back and starting to get better help those younger guys to be better."
The Bucs offense stole the show during Monday's practice, but Tuesday it was the defense that shined -- picking off passes from three different quarterbacks during simulated game drills. "That was great -- a competitive day," Morris said.
The next step comes Thursday at Raymond James Stadium against an always-challenging New England team and head coach Bill Belichick, who started their preseason schedule last week with a 47-12 win over Jacksonville.
"It's kind of hard to say the Patriots wouldn't be a better measuring stick," Morris said. "It's a great football team that plays hard, plays fast; and you hate to say it doesn't matter who plays for them – but it really doesn't. They've got the Patriot way. They designed it. They've got the brand name. And we're looking forward to them coming to our house and playing us."
Exhibition outcomes don't mean much, if anything. But for a Bucs team with eyes on winning the NFC South this season, the matchup should be an interesting gauge of their post-camp progress.

Watch NY Jets vs Texans Live Stream NFL Live on your pc with HD quality. The New York Jets will be making their preseason debut on Monday night when they travel to Houston to take on the Texans. The Jets, however, will not be premiering their most hyped offseason addition, Plaxico Burress. He is dealing with an ankle injury and has been ruled out by head coach Rex Ryan.
We will get our first look at Derrick Mason in a Jets uniform—another veteran receiver the team signed to combat losing Braylon Edwards, Jerricho Cotchery and Brad Smith.
The Texans will be looking to see how their new-look defense holds up against a team that has made the AFC Championship two years in a row.
Having one of the worst secondaries in the league last year, the Texans went out and got Johnathan Joseph and Danieal Manning—two underrated veterans who should vastly improve the defensive back unit.
Houston also will look to see how Arian Foster can perform without All-Pro fullback Vonta Leach plowing a path for him. The Baltimore Ravens lured him away from them, and the team will need to make the necessary adjustments to have a high-powered, well-balanced offense once again this year.
There really aren’t too many intriguing storylines surrounding this game. If Plaxico Burress was playing, it would certainly be appealing, but this game is going to come down to position battles.
The starters for each side will not be playing very long at all, so we will see a plethora of backups and guys just looking to make the cut duking it out.

Yesterday, I detailed the first of my tactics that could aid the Blaugrana in their quest to win the Supercopa, and as promised, I have plenty more. While yesterday’s plan was about Lionel Messi dropping deep, and FC Barcelona playing without a centre-forward, today’s idea could not be more contrasting.
Perhaps Pep Guardiola should play a centre-forward, an old-fashioned number 9.
Maybe the Santpedor-born manager should opt to play Gerard Pique.
Before you say that I have gone mad, and that Pique is guaranteed a starting place anyway, I have got to be clear:
Guardiola could move Pique forward, and have him play as a striker.
Now, this would leave a gap in defence, and yes, I have been highly critical of Guardiola’s decision to play Sergio Busquets in Carles Puyol’s place, but on this occasion, I will make an exception. The back four would contain Alves and Adriano on each flank, with Eric Abidal and Busquets in the middle. This would leave a gap in midfield, and one would assume that Javier Mascherano would be the obvious replacement.
Well, I have another idea. The problem against Real Madrid was not defending, but instead chance creation. Therefore, why not play an über-creative midfield consisting of Xavi, Thiago and Iniesta?
Xavi was hailed as a long-term successor to Guardiola, and Pep played in defensive midfield. In fact, I was having a discussion on Twitter with Sebastian, and Gene Um from The Busby Babe about Xavi, and how he would be perfect for a deep-lying role, much like the one that Andrea Pirlo played for AC Milan. It may be a gamble to try it out in the Supercopa, in El Clasico, but a change appears to be necessary.
While I used Alves and Messi as the example, this can be easily done by Adriano and Pedro on the other wing, and of course, Pique is the one they are aiming for on every delivery. Playing an old-fashioned number 9 is not the Barca way, but it would force the Madrid defense deep. If the defense are deep, Pepe will either have to drop deep, or there will be a lot of space between the midfield and the defense.
With Xavi, Iniesta and Thiago in addition to Pedro and Messi, that space would be exploited at every opportunity, and Barcelona would benefit.
Playing Pique in centre-forward may be unorthodox, but think of the reaction from Madrid to that teamsheet. They would assume that Pique would be in defense, and play as they would usually, but when the teams took the field, with Pique as a striker, Real would be forced to change things up. Mourinho thinks he knows what Barcelona are going to do, and is briefing his players accordingly.
Perhaps the best option would be to change things up, maybe the best option would be to play Pique as a center-forward.
