HOUSTON -- J.J. Watt was back on the field in Houstons 23-14 win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday, but not quite back to form after missing the entire preseason following back surgery.Im knocking a little bit of rust off, and I think as we move forward here Ill start to feel fully like myself again, he said. But theres definitely some things I wish I could have done differently today.Coach Bill OBrien wasnt surprised at how Watt looked and thought he improved as the game progressed.I think its hard when you havent practiced in a long time or played in a game in a long time, OBrien said. I thought at the end there, he was really revving. He was going pretty good.Watt said he didnt feel any lingering effects from the surgery he had in July to repair a herniated disk and he played about as much as he normally does. But the man who has won NFLs Defensive Player of the Year the last two seasons and three of the last four wasnt the game-changer he has routinely been in the past.Physically my body feels fine, he said. I just need to get back into fully being myself out there and trusting my body and letting my body take over and do what it knows how to do.While Watt, who led the NFL with 17 + sacks last season, didnt sack Jay Cutler on Sunday, he did register three hits on the quarterback. Watts teammates sacked Cutler five times, with Whitney Mercilus getting two and Jadeveon Clowney, Josh Simon and Andre Hal tallying one each.Watt enjoyed watching his teammates get after Cutler and cant wait to see what Houstons defensive front will be able to do once hes back to full strength.Its a lot of fun out there and its fun when everybody is making plays, he said. You never know where its going to come from ... it could be anybody and thats whats so fun about our defense.Watt had a difficult offseason and had surgery to repair five torn muscles in his core in January before going under the knife again to repair his back problem. Watt wasnt too hard on himself for not playing up to his lofty expectations on Sunday after the months of rehabilitation it took to reach his goal of returning for Week 1.Its been a long road and to be out there with my teammates for a win, it feels great, he said. We overcame a lot.While Watt was still shaking off the effects of his injury, Clowney looked to be completely healthy for the first time since his NFL debut in 2014. Clowney, who was the top overall pick in 2014, has failed to live up to expectations in two injury-filled seasons.But on Sunday the Texans moved him around often and he showed flashes of what convinced them to select him first in the draft. He finished with five tackles, including two for losses and had a career-high three hits on Cutler.My first game ever was shaky, first two seasons were shaky, had a couple of injuries, but Im feeling better and going out there competing and having fun, Clowney said. Were winning games. So thats great.With Watt not at full strength the 6-foot-5, 270-pound Clowney had to deal with some of the double-teams that Watt normally commands on Sunday.It was rough, Clowney said with a laugh. I know what he goes through.Clowneys performance drew rave reviews from coaches, players and even team owner Bob McNair.Hes doing what we thought he would do when he was healthy, McNair said. Hes going to be fun to watch, and J.J. will play himself back into shape. So the defense will do nothing but get better.----Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Nike Air Max 2017 Black .

Eric ONeal says most of the arrests at Monday nights game were for public drunkenness, though one person was taken into custody on suspicion of trying to steal a seat from the stadium.Mousa Dembele was arguably the best player on the pitch as Tottenham extended their unbeaten record in the Premier League with a 1-1 draw at Arsenal on Sunday. Adam Bate looks at why the midfielder earned the praise of his manager afterwards and could be Spurs’ key man… Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ￡6.99. No contract. Dembele is a genius, said Mauricio Pochettino with a smile. Hes a genius, no? The Tottenham manager had only been asked what he thought of the players efforts given that hed been substituted in the first half against Bayer Leverkusen in midweek. He responded with a superlative, before adding: Today he was one of the best.If genius was a strong term, one of the best actually felt like Pochettino was selling Dembele a little short. In a game that, as Arsene Wenger asserted, was played with great intensity but sometimes lacked for technical craft, the Belgian midfielder found time where others could not. With a drop of one of those huge shoulders, he was away. Highlights of Arsenals 1-1 draw with Tottenham at the Emirates Stadium Dembele won possession more than any other Spurs player and seldom relinquished it either. He completed 42 of his 47 passes - an accuracy rate that was far superior to any other player on the pitch. The statistics showed that there were also three tackles and a couple of interceptions but they do not reveal the apparent ease with which it was all done. Arsenal 1-1 Tottenham - Passing Player Team Pass accuracy Mousa Dembele Tottenham 89.4% Francis Coquelin Arsenal 83.3% Jan Vertonghen Tottenham 83.1% Aaron Ramsey Arsenal 82.4% Arsenal pressed Spurs well early on but it was futile against Dembele. Insiide three minutes he turned away from two to set up the first chance of the game for Kyle Walker and that was a hint of what was to come.dddddddddddd It was his gliding run away from Mesut Ozil and Francis Coquelin that won the penalty from which Harry Kane earned the visitors their point. Dembele had six successful dribbles against Arsenal - no other player on the pitch had more than two The 1-1 draw maintains the sequence of Tottenham having not lost a Premier League game in which Dembele has started since an unfortunate defeat at Manchester United on the opening day of last season. When Dembele can be partnered with Kane, the effect it has on Tottenham is shown by the dramatic upturn in results. Dembele and Kane - Since October 2015 Played Won Drawn Lost Win % Points pg With 25 16 9 0 64% 2.28 Without 17 5 7 5 29% 1.29 Since October 2015, Spurs are unbeaten in 25 Premier League games when the two start together with a win percentage of 64 per cent. In contrast, theyve lost five of 17 where one of the pair has been missing - a win percentage of only 29 per cent. Over the course of a full season, thats the difference between winning the title and finishing outside the top 10.In part, thats because of Dembeles ability to get Tottenhams attacking players into the game. While Victor Wanyama and Eric Dier are safe in possession, Dembele can break the lines through both dribbling the ball - there were six such runs against Arsenal - and picking out forward options. He passed more to Christian Eriksen on Sunday than to anyone else. Dembele provided composure and control in Tottenhams midfield Getting him on the ball is key for Tottenham, argues Sky Sports tactics expert Danny Higginbotham. Getting him driving through midfield and unsettling the opposition midfield. Making them make decisions they dont want to make. Hes an important cog who feeds the likes of Christian Eriksen, Dele Alli and Erik Lamela.Two of those men were missing at the Emirates Stadium, but its the return to full fitness of Dembele and Kane that could be the real key to Tottenhams chances. Kane is the hero, the man whose goals are capable of firing Spurs to their victories. But Dembele, Pochettinos midfield genius, is the one who can provide the platform for him to do it.
