MINNEAPOLIS - Most of the chants from the crowd in Minnesota earlier this season went like this: Teddy! Teddy! Teddy!This time the Green Bay fans took over: Eddie! Eddie! Eddie!Eddie Lacy gave the Packers another big lift. Uomo/Donna Asics Gel Lyte III Selvedge Denim Leggero Bianco/Nere H6W4N-9990 . Teddy Bridgewater and the Vikings couldnt quite keep up.Lacy scored twice, on a run in the first quarter and a catch in the fourth quarter, and had season highs with 125 yards and 25 rushes to carry the Packers to a 24-21 victory over the Vikings on Sunday.Hes a workhorse. We need him in the winter months, said Aaron Rodgers, who threw for two touchdowns and 209 yards on 19-for-29 passing while again avoiding a turnover for the Packers (8-3).Those running plays between the tackles were working so well that Rodgers even surprised coach Mike McCarthy during a timeout by the Vikings with 2:31 left by lobbying for another one.I just kind of chuckled, because its usually the other way around, McCarthy said.Lacy and the offensive line delivered a 4-yard run on third-and-2 to take the clock to the 2-minute warning. One more first down sealed it for the Packers.One man cant tackle him, because hes just going to move his feet and hes going to fall forward every time, Vikings cornerback Xavier Rhodes said.After Bridgewaters second touchdown pass of the afternoon, the Vikings were within three points with 3:23 remaining. Coach Mike Zimmer said he shouldve called for an onside kick from the 50-yard line, after a roughing-the-passer penalty on the Packers during the previous play.I figured they were going to run the ball three times, and I figured we could stop them, Zimmer said.None of Lacys carries was more demoralizing than those gains of 3, 5, 4, 5 and 10 yards when the Packers got the ball back late in this game. The 10-yard reception on a shovel pass from Rodgers earlier in the fourth quarter to finish an 11-play, 87-yard drive was a dagger, too.Bouncing off guys, spinning off guys and getting into the end zone. Thats what Eddie does, right tackle Bryan Bulaga said.Here are some key points from the game:LACYS ILLNESSLacy wasnt around in the locker room to speak to reporters about his stellar performance because he wasnt feeling well, the Packers said. Three of his six career 100-yard games have come against the Vikings.BRIDGEWATER COMEBACKBridgewater mostly played again like a rookie, misfiring several times with high throws. Micah Hyde intercepted his pass in the second quarter near midfield, setting up a touchdown drive for the Packers. Charles Johnson was wide open on third down inside the 20 twice. Both attempts were wide of the mark, forcing the Vikings to punt in the first quarter and kick a field goal in the third quarter. Bridgewater said he was too jumpy early in the game out of excitement about playing Rodgers and the Packers.I just have to settle down and remain poised and just let the game come to me, he said.MCCARTHY MILESTONEMcCarthy raised his regular-season record to 90-48-1 to pass Vince Lombardi (89-29-4) for second place on Green Bays regular season wins list, still trailing Curly Lambeau (209-104-21). McCarthy is 14-4-1 with five season sweeps against the Vikings since arriving in 2006, including 9-1-1 in the last 11 games.JOHNSON EMERGESFor the second straight week, Johnson was Bridgewaters go-to receiver, targeting him 11 times. Greg Jennings was the next closest with six. Johnson hauled in his first career touchdown pass, a 22-yard completion that tied the game at 7 in the second quarter, and finished with 52 yards.Johnson was a seventh-round draft pick by the Packers last year out of NCAA Division II Grand Valley State. He wound up with Cleveland during that injury-ruined rookie season and was on the practice squad this year with the Browns when the Vikings signed him two weeks in.So this was the perfect time for that first NFL score.It was pretty exciting for me. Im not going to lie, Johnson said. Ive got to give thanks to the offensive line and Teddy for getting the ball to me. I wish we wouldve won. I wouldve rather had that.NO LETDOWNThe Packers, who beat Philadelphia 53-20 and Chicago 55-14 the last two games, avoided the trap against a struggling opponent with a game at home against surging New England next week. The Patriots beat Detroit 34-9, allowing the Packers to pass the Lions and take sole possession of first place in the NFC North.___AP NFL websites: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Onitsuka Tiger Mexico Mid Runner .3 seconds remaining, and No. 7 North Carolina held off a resilient No. 25 Virginia team, 54-51, on Saturday.

Japan, on the other hand, struck first in its match with Ivory Coast, with Keisuke Honda putting his side into the lead in the 16th minute.OTTAWA - Less than 18 months after being honoured as the NHLs coach of the year, Paul MacLean is out of a job. The Ottawa Senators fired MacLean on Monday after an 11-11-5 start, though the problems team executives had with the coach extended back into last season when the Senators missed the playoffs. Senators general manager Bryan Murray told a news conference Monday that assistant Dave Cameron will be the new head coach of the team. Ive had some tough days lately, said Murray, who is currently undergoing cancer treatment and watched longtime Senator Daniel Alfredsson retire last week. This is one of them. MacLean, the first NHL coach to be fired this season, wore out his welcome among Senators players with tactics that led to many games in which they were outshot. Through 27 games, Ottawa has given up the second-most shots in the league behind only the Buffalo Sabres. Murray, who broke the news to MacLean at 9:30 a.m. Monday morning, said he had grown frustrated watching the Senators struggle with turnovers night after night. We continue to be a big turnover team in our zone, said Murray. Our goaltending has been, to say the least, outstanding most nights to give us a chance to win hockey games. The chances against our team are, some nights, atrocious. I think theres an obligation for a lot of people, the players included, to perform better than that. But the leader of the pack always is the coach. MacLeans defensive tactics that allowed opponents easy entry into the attacking zone were responsible for the Senators being outshot 34.4 to 28.8 on average this season. I think positioning in our own end is a big, big issue, said Murray, adding that he would talk to MacLean about the problem but nothing changed in that area. Murray aalso said there was an uneasiness in the dressing room. Aaron Asics|Uomo/Donna|Bianche/Verde H50XJ-9984. Some of the better players felt that they were singled out a little too often maybe, said Murray. Thats todays athlete. They want to be corrected, coached, given a chance to play without being the centrepoint of discussion in the room. Murray said he thinks Camerons teaching style will be more effective. I think hell relate a little bit to what we need here with some of our youth in particular, said Murray, who agreed with one reporter that communication with MacLean had become a one-way street. This sometimes happens when theres pressure on people, theyre not as open to listen and take ideas and go back and forth in the communication part of it, he said. Players today more than ever need and want that. Cameron has extensive coaching experience at the Junior A and AHL levels, including coaching the 2011 Canadian world junior team, but has never been an NHL head coach. In parts of four seasons the Senators went 114-90-35 under MacLean, making the playoffs in his first two seasons. MacLean won the Jack Adams Trophy as NHL coach of the year in the lockout-shortened 2012-13 season after leading a team ravaged by injuries to Jason Spezza, Erik Karlsson and Craig Anderson to the playoffs. The Senators have the lowest payroll in the league at US$56,280,726, according to CapGeek. Theyre 10th in the Eastern Conference. MacLean, a 56-year-old from Antigonish, N.S., who previously served as an assistant to Mike Babcock in Anaheim and Detroit, was in the first season of a new three-year deal. Murray said after last season, he felt MacLean deserved a chance to redeem himself. I was really in his corner to come back, he said. Sometimes you have a bad year. ' ' '
