At Sports Insights, we practice what we preach, routinely going against the public by taking the NFLs least popular teams. By understanding what drives public perception, we have been able to capitalize on the market inefficiencies created by weekly overreactions.Casual bettors are frequently stereotyped as having short tempers, but they might have even shorter memories. Case in point: Last week, the Arizona Cardinals were the most popular pick of the season, receiving nearly 80 percent of spread bets against the Bills. Following their unexpected loss, theyre less popular than black jelly beans. Take that, Jelly Belly! Jared Cook Jersey . Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006. Mitchell Schwartz Jersey .C. -- Todd Fiddler scored a hat trick, including the overtime goal, as the Prince George Cougars survived an 8-7 win against the Kamloops Blazers in Western Hockey League play Sunday. http://www.prochiefsauthentic.com/Youth-Marcus-Allen-Elite-Jersey/ . -- The Sacramento Kings are set to become the first major professional sports franchise to accept Bitcoin virtual currency for ticket and merchandise purchases. Daniel Sorensen Jersey . After Mondays hard-fought loss, the wait seemed longer than usual. Getting set to go their separate ways for a short Christmas break, the Raptors coach credited his team for their effort on a seemingly impossible three-game road trip, urging them to build on that success when they get back to work at the end of the week. Darron Lee Jersey .com) - Richie Incognito has reportedly been admitted to a psychiatric care unit in Arizona. AMES, Iowa -- Things have gotten so bleak for Iowa State that a three-touchdown defeat is seen as progress.Still, there were signs in a 41-20 road loss at TCU that the winless Cyclones (0-3) are indeed improving.Quarterback Joel Lanning helped jump-start the rushing game, running back Mike Warren ran for nearly 100 yards and Iowa States special teams looked as strong as they have all season.It was clear from the opener, a 25-20 loss to Northern Iowa of the FCS, that 2016 would be a rebuilding year. So as lopsided as the final score was in Fort Worth last weekend, the Cyclones found some positives to build on for Saturdays nonconference finale against San Jose State (1-2).Were continuing to grow and get better and I think you saw that last week, first-year Iowa State coach Matt Campbell said.Lanning retained his starting spot despite a terrible performance two weeks ago, throwing for just 86 yards as the Cyclones were throttled by Iowa 42-3.That doesnt mean Lanning is set to take all the snaps this season.Sophomore Jacob Park, the more accomplished passer of the two, played extensively against the Horned Frogs and threw for 90 yards on 15 attempts.Lanning is much more of a dual threat though, and the Cyclones were able to use that to their advantage. Lanning rushed for two TDs, including an 8-yarder in which he broke tackles from nearly half of TCUs defense to score.Campbell said the quarterback rotation moving forward will be based on practice performances, game-day situations and even feel on occasion.I still think thats an open-eended question, Campbell said of this weekends plans for Lanning and Park.dddddddddddd Well continue to compete at that position. But I really trust those guys to play.Warrens inability to get untracked, an issue caused largely by a leaky offensive line, had been Iowa States biggest problem. But the Cyclones finally committed to getting Warren more involved against the Horned Frogs, and it paid off.Warren ran for 95 yards on 23 carries after gaining just 58 yards in the first two weeks combined.Youre not going to get where you want in a day, and we all realize that its going to take a little more each time to get where we want to go, he said.Iowa States special teams had their moments last week as well after some early stumbles against Northern Iowa and Iowa.Cole Netten hit two short field goals, true freshman Kene Nwangwu had 99 yards on just three kickoff returns and Colin Downing averaged 44 yards on eight punts.Of course, none of them led to a win -- or even a relatively close game.But for a program just three games into a rebuild that could easily take three years or more, signs of progress are encouraging.I think we kind of put things together a little bit more than we have in the first two games. We were going quick and we had success running the ball, and thats what we need to do to be successful, Lanning said. We made some baby steps, and it was good for us.---Online: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
