The former LSU WR provides a great blow | Arkansas Democratic Gazette

Orlando, Fla. – With the Olympic flag football three years away, this is being clear: the American team should want a former LSU receiver on his list.

The four former tigers competing in the Pro Bowl games scored eight touchdowns combined in a flag soccer contest that limited the third consecutive victory of the NFC over the AFC, 76-63 on Sunday.

The rookie Malik Nabers of the New York giants found the final area twice for the NFC, and Justin Jefferson of Minnesota also scored. Jefferson caught six passes for 46 yards. Nabers ended with five receptions for 62 yards.

“We are on the safe top,” said Jefferson. “It is definitely great to see the boys have fun here, scoring TouchDowns, just making great plays. That is what we normally do, so it is good to see that we go here and doing the same.”

The NFC essentially sealed the victory by returning two interceptions for the touchdowns in the second half, giving coach Eli Manning a third consecutive victory over the older brother and AFC coach Peyton. Budda Baker of Arizona and Byron Murphy of Minnesota delivered the great defensive works in an event made for television designed to exhibit the offensive.

Jared Goff, who made the NFC have a strong start with its almost perfect performance in a skill competition on Thursday, completed 10 of 11 passes for 126 yards and 3 touchdowns. Goff and Murphy obtained MVP honors.

Tampa Bay baker, Mayfield, added three touchdowns in eight endings for the NFC, his second going to Nabers.

The former LSU boys in the final area ended up being the largest trend in a game that lacked drama.

Ja’mar Chase de Cincinnati scored three times, including a 45 yards from Russell Wilson late, and Brian Thomas Jr. de Jacksonville added two more for AFC. Chase celebrated his third with a setback and then made “The Griddy” that his former university teammate, Jefferson, helped popularize.

The NFC began the day with an advantage of 14-7 after six skills competitions worth up to three points every Thursday night. The conference joined his leadia by winning the “great football race” and dominated an old strip and loosen competition on Sunday.

With Dexter Lawrence of the New York Jets, Vita Ver de Tampa Bay and Leonard Williams of Seattle anchoring the force test, the AFC got into a foam well twice in an event of the best of three.

Turpin shines

Speed ​​Thrills and Dallas Cowboys return to the Kavontae Turpin man organized a show. Eli Manning used Turpin as a passes runner, and his speed was evident throughout the game. He pressed the Quarterbacks regularly, forcing them in errors, and apparently brought flags easily. It ended with five cups, including a sack.

Shuffle

Pittsburgh’s defensive Tackle, Cameron Heyward and the Defensive Tankle of Tennessee, Jeffery Simmons, spent time between the first and second quarter playing the cards in the AFC bank. Finally they lowered the deck and saw a skill game called “Punt Perfect”.

But it was quite common to see players find ways to spend time in the relaxed atmosphere of the game. Mayfield, his Buccaneers teammate, Tristan Wirfs and Micah Parsons de Dallas posed for photos that support their babies in the lateral line of the NFC. Jerry Jeudy of Cleveland spent much of the game signing autographs in the lateral line of the AFC.

Perfect clearance

Logan Cooke de Jacksonville beat Jack Fox De Detroit captivated teammates and fans in extra time of “Punt Perfect”. It may have been the most dramatic finish of Pro Bowl games.

“At the end of the day, everyone came here for a clearance,” Cooke joked.

Cooke and Fox faced face to face in the first two rounds, with the help of Baltimore Marlon Humphrey’s corner and San Francisco Kyle Juszczyk’s fullback, and were tied after two rounds. It went to sudden death, where Cooke hit and then saw Fox’s attempt to eliminate the edge of one of the six 35 -yard away boats.
