LAKE FOREST http://www.packersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-darnell-savage-jr.-jersey , Ill. (AP) — .Trubisky said he is “really close to 100 percent” and expects to play against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night after missing the past two games because of a right shoulder injury.He went through a full practice on Wednesday. Assuming no setbacks, he figures to start when the NFC North leaders host the NFC West champions.“I just gotta show coach that I can play,” he said. “I’m feeling good about where I’m at. As long as I can show them that I can go out there every day and make all the throws and be the player that they know I am, I feel confident that I’ll be able to go.”Nagy said he feels “strong that he will play,” though he wouldn’t quite commit to it.“I got to see more,” he said. “I feel good about it.”Trubisky was hurt sliding late in a win over Minnesota on Nov. 18. He was hit by the Vikings’ Harrison Smith on the left side, resulting in his throwing shoulder getting driven into the ground.Chase Daniel has started the past two games, a victory at Detroit on Thanksgiving and an overtime loss at the New York Giants.Assuming he is cleared to return, Trubisky will face quite a task.The league-leading Rams (11-1) became the first team to secure a playoff berth when they beat Detroit to clinch their second straight division title. A win over Chicago (8-4) would give them a first-round bye and move them another step closer to home-field advantage in the NFC playoffs, with a one-game lead over New Orleans.While the Bears’ defense will have to contain one of the NFL’s most explosive offenses, Trubisky will have to contend with Aaron Donald and Ndamukong Suh. Donald leads the NFL with 16 1/2 sacks and at least two in each of the past three games.Even so, getting Trubisky back naturally would be a boost. Daniel had two interceptions Elgton Jenkins Jersey , got sacked five times and committed four fumbles against the Giants. And the Bears’ five-game win streak came to an end.“(Trubisky) has led us to this point now, to be No. 1 in our division,” receiver Allen Robinson said. “It’s really big for us.”The Bears took a slow approach with Trubisky, just as they did with star pass rusher Khalil Mack and Robinson. Both players missed two games because of injuries earlier this season.Trubisky didn’t resume throwing until Friday. He threw again prior to the game against the Giants and felt well enough to play pingpong on Monday, firing off some hard forehands against cornerback Prince Amukamara in an Instagram video posted by receiver Josh Bellamy.“He’s a fighter,” Nagy said. “He doesn’t care how hurt or injured he is. He wants to be there. So, I appreciate that. I like that about him. But we got to protect him and make sure we’re smart.”The No. 2 overall pick in 2017, Trubisky has a 97.7 rating, 20 touchdown passes and nine interceptions in 10 games. It’s a big improvement over his rookie season, when his rating was about 20 points lower and he threw for as many TDs as INTs (seven).Trubisky will be going against another quarterback, Jared Goff, who had difficulties as a rookie and made big strides in Year 2 after the team hired a coach with an offensive background. The No. 1 pick in 2016 http://www.packersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-jace-sternberger-jersey , Goff made the Pro Bowl last season. The two got to know each other well in the offseason, working out together with the same quarterbacks coach and trainers.Rams coach Sean McVay is impressed by Trubisky.“I think he’s throwing the deep ball extremely accurate, on time,” he said. “You clearly see the athleticism, where if something’s not there he can step up, he can make (you) pay with his legs. … You can feel that the players believe in him and I think that’s as big as anything else. He’s got a nice play energy that exudes a confidence, and the players feed off of him.“And then the play-making ability, whether it’s (throwing) the ball down the field or creating on his own, it’s certainly something that has to be accounted for.” EAGAN, Minn. (AP) — When the Minnesota Vikings went all-in on Kirk Cousins as their long-sought franchise player last spring, they paired him with a new offensive coordinator considered to be part of the current wave of up-and-coming quarterback developers and innovative play-callers putting a strong imprint on the NFL.The partnership with John DeFilippo that had so much potential lasted nine months.Cousins and his Vikings teammates were doused this week with the cold shower of coach Mike Zimmer’s decision to fire DeFilippo after just 13 regular-season games, the latest dose of the reality of this cutthroat league as well as a sobering reminder that their lagging performance ultimately cost him the job.“It’s the hard part of this business Dexter Williams Jersey , and it was tough news,” Cousins said before practice on Wednesday. “I hate seeing it happen.”Pro football’s furnace of fan-driven angst over a struggling offense had been directed over the past month toward DeFilippo and his in-game decision-making, with Zimmer’s public second-guessing of the play-calling only adding to the heat.Cousins, in the first season of his fully guaranteed, three-year, $84 million contract, joined DeFilippo over the past month on the firing line.The Vikings (6-6-1) have lost three of their past four games, with Cousins posting three of his five lowest passer ratings in those games, all on the road against postseason-bound teams.“One of the things I did communicate to coach Flip yesterday was, ‘I believe with the ball in my hand, had I played at my fullest potential play-in and play-out, we’re probably not having this conversation right now Max Scharping Jersey ,'” Cousins said.“That’s something I take personally and is certainly tough for me and keeps you up at night. But at the same time, all you can do now is go forward.”Cousins complimented DeFilippo for his “very classy and very gracious” conversation with him on Tuesday after the dismissal.“I have a lot of respect for him as a coach. I have a lot of respect for him as a person. And I believe that his best days in this league are ahead of him,” Cousins said. “I think he’s a very good coach, and I think he’ll be a coordinator again. I think he’s head coach material, as well.”Zimmer made the move about 12 hours after Minnesota’s 21-7 loss at Seattle on Monday, when the offense didn’t score until 70 seconds remained in the game.With the Vikings still, somehow, in control of the second wild-card spot in the top-heavy NFC, Zimmer decided to fire DeFilippo and make quarterbacks coach Kevin Stefanski the offensive coordinator for the remainder of the season in a last-ditch attempt to create a spark for a sputtering unit.“It may work. It may not work. You get feelings and you trust your gut,” Zimmer said. “It’s no different than, it’s fourth-and-8, you’ve got to call the blitz http://www.texansauthorizedshops.com/authentic-kahale-warring-jersey , you meet it head on, and you go. Now are we going to talk about Miami? Or are we going to keep talking about this?”Ah, yes, the Dolphins (7-6), who are due in Minnesota on Sunday afternoon. They’re tied for third in the NFL with 25 takeaways, a dangerous trend for Cousins and his 16 turnovers that are tied with New York Jets rookie Sam Darnold for the most in the league.“I’d be the first one to say if I had played at a higher level, we’re probably not talking about the things we’re talking about,” Cousins said.
