ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Big dents to their bank accounts for helmet-to-helmet hits on Cam Newton arent deterring Denver Broncos defenders Brandon Marshall and Darian Stewart.Ill do it again, Marshall declared shortly after saying hell fight his $24,309 fine for launching himself at Newton in Denvers 21-20 win over the Carolina Panthers in the NFL opener last week.Im not going to change the way I play the game, asserted Stewart, who was fined $18,231 for his high hit against the leagues reigning MVP.Marshall wasnt flagged for his hit, which the NFL deemed an impermissible use of the helmet (including illegal launching), according to its 2016 schedule of fines.Stewart was fined for roughing the QB in the final minute, a penalty that was nullified on the field when Newton was whistled for intentional grounding. Although Stewarts hit left Newton motionless on the ground, he wasnt checked for a concussion until after the game.Super Bowl MVP Von Miller and cornerback Bradley Roby didnt find FedEx envelopes in their lockers like Marshall and Stewart did Wednesday as they avoided any fines for their own helmet-to-helmet hits on Newton.For what? We didnt do anything, Miller told The Associated Press. I could see if we did something wrong.The four hits on Newton, three of which werent flagged, sparked a debate about league safety, the viability of option quarterbacks in the NFL and the notion that Denver plays dirty.Newton dismissed news of the fines.My job is to win football games, not lobby for my health, Newton said Wednesday, adding he feels great and he didnt want to dwell on the previous game and the hits.The Broncos said their job was to keep playing stout defense.Ill just say this: we play hard and were going to continue to play hard, coach Gary Kubiak said. Its really difficult defensively when you have a quarterback who goes from a passer to a runner and youre committed (as a defender) and thats what both of these guys were.We understand that you have to stay away from the head, but were going to continue to play hard. That ones in the past. Were moving on.Not entirely.Although they avoided suspensions, Marshall and Stewart said theyd appeal their fines.I felt like he was running with the ball and I was trying to make a play, Stewart said. He was doing that the whole game. I was just being aggressive, but not really aiming for the head.Panthers left tackle Michael Oher was glad to hear about the fines, but would have preferred flags.Well, I wish some calls could have gotten made in the game, he said. There were some calls that could have been made. But maybe in the future he will be treated more like a quarterback.Marshall insists Newton has to be treated like a 250-pound running back when he leaves the pocket. He also found himself wishing hed been flagged for his hit on Newton because that might have resulted in a fine such as Stewarts.Because there was no whistle, the league determined the violation and fined him $6,078 more than Stewart.Thats a huge fine, Marshall said. And I know what it looked like. It looked bad. But thats a lot of money. So, yes, Im upset about it. I wasnt expecting that amount. Honestly, the truth be told, I was expecting Stew to get more than me.On another front, Marshall said he was finalizing an endorsement deal from music mogul Russell Simmonss Rushcard after losing two endorsements over his kneeling during the national anthem before the opener in support of Colin Kaepernicks protest of social injustices and police treatment of minorities.Marshall, who has pledged to donate to military charities and expand his work in the community, also met with Denver police chief Robert White on Tuesday.Marshall said he will accept Whites invitation to participate in a shoot-or-dont-shoot training simulator and to go on a ride-along with police officers.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---AP Sports Writer Steve Reed contributed.

Custom Rockets T-shirts .5 seconds to play in the game, Kevin Love never stopped believing that they would come out of there with a win. http://www.customrocketsjersey.com/ . Just not the game. Kyle Palmieri scored two straight goals in the third period to rally the Anaheim Ducks past the Philadelphia Flyers 3-2 on Tuesday night. Custom Rockets Jerseys . The 27-year-old Scrivens will be joining his third NHL club since signing with the Toronto Maple Leafs as a free agent in 2010. The move also reunites with him with head coach Dallas Eakins from their time together with the American Hockey Leagues Toronto Marlies. Authentic Custom Rockets Jersey . The home side created most of the chances but struggled to break down Braunschweigs resilient defence, resulting in the Bundesligas 1,000th scoreless draw.David Lloyd on the England squad for the first Test with Sri Lanka, rubbing shoulders with the stars at the BAFTAs and riding on steam trains with Bob Willis and Paul Allott... The England squad was predictable. Another option would be that Jonny Bairstow bats five and Jos Buttler keeps wicket but Buttlers still at the IPL so thats put to bed.James Vince is a good pick, hell probably bat five. Theyve been looking at him for a while, hes got a century this season and hes a player whos improving all the time - a good pick. Then theres Jake Ball. I watched a championship game down at Lords, Middlesex versus Nottinghamshire and he bowled really well there, even though he didnt get any wickets when I watched him. But another lad who caught the eye was Toby Roland-Jones, he had a good solid action - very, very similar to Jake Ball and both of them bowl with good discipline. Toby Roland-Jones impressed Bumble at Lords As for the series as a whole, I would think that England are deserved favourites. Youve always got to factor in the weather and delays in the game but Id expect England to win this series comfortably and to win the Pakistan series comfortably too. That means they can get to work moving up the ICC Test rankings, theyre fourth and by the end of this Id expect them to have made a big move forward.This week also sees Mark Butchers documentary England in the 90s go to air and things have certainly changed since then. Wed had enough of playing catch up and central contracts were a vital part of the England Test team moving forward. Theyre now England players, I think everybody has accepted that now. It was difficult at the start, certainly in the 90s, David Graveney, the chairman of selectors, almost had to go cap in hand to the counties and ask if they could rest a player. Understandably, the counties said well were employing him but thats changed now and the England contracted players are exactly that.It wasnt the most successful decade for England but we were up against some wonderful opposition. We had a good side, make no mistake about it. In the late 90s England were a very good side but we were up against some world class performers. Shane Warne was part of a formidable Australian side in the 90s You look at the Australia team who were carrying all before them at that time with McGrath, Gillespie, Fleming, Warne - they had a wonderful attack. Then you had Pakistan with Waqar and Wasim, South Africa with Donald and Pollock, youve Ambrose and Walsh at the West Indies, there were some fabulous teams around.We had a really good team and sometimes wed come out on top, we had some good wins and we probably had some predictable losses. The disappointing loss would be losing in the West Indies 3-1 when I thought we were a better team than that performance, I thought we should have won that seriees - I was a bit disappointed at that.ddddddddddddWe did beat South Africa 2-1 in a five-match series, we hadnt played a five-match series for a long, long time and so to win that was a real highlight. We also manoeuvred away from the idea that Test team plays one-day cricket, we were trying hard to establish a one-day squad, a specialist one-day team. Back to the present day and Ive seen a couple of matches and Ive been really impressed by the cricket that Ive seen in County Championship Division One. There are some wonderful players, some really good teams, some potent bowling attacks and youve got to play really well now in Division One.Lancashire have had an excellent start with a good attack. Every team would say we need a good attack - well youve got Anderson leading the attack, Wagner, Jarvis and Kerrigan - thats a damn good attack. The top two teams are Lancashire and Yorkshire and theyve both got really good bowling units.Warwickshire will be round about too, I think theyre an excellent team and if I was making a favourite then Warwickshire would be my favourites. James Anderson has led the Lancashire attack so far this season Accrington Stanley have their first play-off match this weekend but Im still profoundly disappointed with the Stevenage result, we just couldnt get that ball in the back of the net - we just kept hitting the bar! We were all over them like a bad suit but we couldnt score and it was heart-breaking for the lads.John Coleman and Jimmy Bell will work hard to lift the players again and whats gone is gone, thats it. Our next game is Wimbledon on Saturday so we go again. We know what is expected of us as a team, we dont lie down and we will come again.
