Dont try to convince Carlton AFL coach Brendon Bolton theres any merit in close losses.His side gave flag contender Sydney a mighty scare before the Swans scraped home by six points at the SCG on Saturday.Boltons side lost by seven points to another competition heavyweight West Coast last week and he stressed he would never be satisfied with narrow defeats against more favoured clubs.I dont think thats performance mindset, Bolton said.If you think that way you always give always give yourself an out.We will always recognise and acknowledge and should enjoy the growth of a team and individuals.We think weve made plenty on that front, but it can also become a self-fulfilling prophecy being honourable when you lose.He was pleased with their effort and tackling against Sydney.The Blues face another stiff challenge next week against Hawthorn, Boltons former club who he will coach against in an AFL game for the first time.(Recently) weve played against some teams (West Coast and Sydney) that have been in grand finals in the last few years, next week were going to another team in Hawthorn, who have been in grand finals, Bolton said.Its great to benchmark our team against those and we keep embracing the challenges.Well have another one next week.He doesnt expect to have Charlie Curnow available, with the player to undergo scans on a knee injury.He didnt finish the game which is never a great sign, so hell miss some weeks, but how many Im not sure, Bolton said.Wholesale Vans For Sale .

Youll get it on Wednesday. Simple as that. Youll get it [when we] turn it in.It was the latest made-for-television moment from Ryan on the subject of the Patriots. Ryan emphasized, however, that he respects his AFC East adversary as they prepare to meet as head coaches for the eighth consecutive season.I think my admiration is really for Belichick more than anything, Ryan said Monday. As a coach, thats the guy. Hell go down as probably the best in the history of the game. I like poking fun at him and all that stuff, but theres no coach I respect more than him.Belichick has an 11-4 record against Ryan, including a playoff loss to the New York Jets following the 2010 season. The Patriots defeated the Bills twice in Ryans first season as Buffalos coach.The Bills improved to 1-2 this season by defeating the favored Arizona Cardinals?33-18 on Sunday. They have won only once at Gillette Stadium, in the 2014 regular-season finale.[Winning Sunday] would mean a lot to our football team, Ryan said Monday. [The Patriots] have been the standard of this league, not jusst in our conference, division, whatever.dddddddddddd. Theyve been the standard of the league. So you want to put yourself up against the best.I think everybody saw what happened, when everybody [said], Well, no Tom Brady. This team will be a disaster. Well, theyre 3-0 last time I checked. And they beat some pretty good football teams. So yeah, it will mean a lot. We need a win in the worst way.Ryan struck a different tone Monday, after riffing on the Patriots quarterback situation one day earlier.I can sit back and say I dont care who plays quarterback, because [Tom] Brady aint, Ryan said Sunday. I dont care who plays quarterback. Steve Grogan can play quarterback. If Belichicks playing quarterback, were coming after him, I promise you that.It remains uncertain which Patriots quarterback,?Jimmy Garoppolo (shoulder injury) or Jacoby Brissett (thumb), will be able to play against the Bills. It will be the final game of Bradys four-game suspension.I expect [the Patriots] immediately to tell us [who the starting quarterback will be], Ryan joked Monday. And as soon as they tell us, were all gonna be like, Yeah, OK. Nobody would believe it anyway. Nah, I dont know. Were not gonna find out until kickoff. ' ' '
