CINCINNATI -- Brandon LaFell finally had a touchdown catch with the Bengals -- two, no less. The goal now is to make one or more when they really matter.The Bengals made LaFell their main offseason acquisition for an offense that lost its No. 2 and No. 3 receivers in free agency.The former New England Patriot has provided everything except touchdowns in an offense that has uncharacteristically struggled to score points.Heading back to New England (4-1) for what amounts to a pivotal game, the Bengals (2-3) are looking for LaFell to emerge and take some of the defenses attention away from A.J. Green.Through the course of the season, youll see that development continue, offensive coordinator Ken Zampese said. The faster that happens and the better we do with it, the better off well be offensively.Heading into their game at New England , LaFell got to reminisce about his two seasons with the Patriots, which included a touchdown catch during their Super Bowl win over Seattle during the 2014 season. A foot injury limited him last year.The homecoming is less about personal memories and more about saving a season. The Bengals got shoved around during a 28-14 loss in Dallas last week, with LaFell catching two late touchdown passes after the game was decided.Especially the way we played last week, everybodys got to come out and play big, LaFell said.LaFells locker was next to Tom Bradys in New England, so they spent a lot of time talking. The two of them stay in touch -- LaFell texted Brady after he threw three touchdown passes in a 33-13 win in Cleveland on Sunday in his first game back from a suspension for deflated footballs.Hes a spectacular player, Brady said during a conference call. I saw he had a big week last week.We were next to each other the whole time here. I always enjoyed being around him. It was tough to see him go.LaFell had four catches for 91 yards in an opening win over the Jets, but was limited to 44 yards or less in the next three games. With the Cowboys focusing on Green last Sunday, Andy Dalton threw toward LaFell 11 times. He had eight catches for 68 yards, including touchdowns of 7 and 5 yards.Hopefully we can continue to build on that and continue to connect more, and more so in crucial moments of the game, not when the game is out of hand, LaFell said.The Bengals need more points out of their offense. When they opened last season 5-0, they scored at least 24 points in each game. This season, they have yet to score 24 in any game.Dalton leads the AFC with 1,503 yards passing, but the Bengals are among the leagues worst at getting touchdowns when they cross the opponents 20-yard line. LaFell has 21 catches for 276 yards and a 13.1-yard average, second only to Green on the team.Things have been good with Brandon since hes been here, Dalton said. He had a lot of opportunity in that game. Were very, very confident with what hes doing for us.Game notes TE Tyler Eifert was the only player held out of practice again on Thursday as he recovers from offseason ankle surgery and a back injury.

Wholesale Dolphins Jerseys . -- Whether Jeremy Hill deserves a prominent role in LSUs offence this early in the season is a matter for debate. No rule exists that a driver has to win the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway to win the title.But in the first two years of the elimination-style Chase for the Sprint Cup format, a Chase driver has won the race to hoist the Sprint Cup trophy. And not just that, in both years the driver who finished second was among the four championship-eligible drivers.So when Joey Logano, Kyle Busch, Jimmie Johnson and Carl Edwards say they think they have to win Sunday, they have the relatively small history of the elimination-style Chase at least backing up such a statement.We race to win every week -- why should we race differently for a championship, right? said Logano, who was foiled by a bad pit stop in the 2014 championship race. Were racing to win that race, and thats ultimately going to have a championship attached to that.Heres how the four finalists -- in order of NASCAR seeding, based on best finish in the previous round -- stack up heading into the 2016 title bout:1. Joey LoganoTeam Penske No. 22 FordChampionships: NoneWins in the third round: OnePoints: 4,118 (first)Why he will win the title: Logano has won two of the three elimination races in this Chase, which shows his ability to capitalize on the moment. He has all the momentum and the experience of falling short in 2014, and he appears to be having the most fun of anyone in the Chase. Why? Maybe because he has the most Chase wins over the past three years (seven).Why he wont: A Ford has not won in the past nine races on a 1.5-mile or 2-mile aerodynamic-dependent track. Logano was second at Texas, but that might not be good enough Sunday.2. Jimmie JohnsonHendrick Motorsports No. 48 ChevroletChampionships: Six (2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2013)Wins in the third round: OnePoints: 4,078 (sixth)Why he will win the title: Because hes Jimmie Johnson and hes alrready won six of these trophies.dddddddddddd He also rips the heart out of the people he calls the haters, and its time to disappoint the people who cant accept his greatness.Why he wont: Johnson rarely has had to run spectacular at Homestead to win the title. He has just four top-5s in 15 career starts at the track.3. Carl EdwardsJoe Gibbs Racing No. 19 ToyotaChampionships: NoneWins in the third round:?OnePoints: 4,071 (eighth)Why he will win the title: His two victories at Homestead and 9.2 average finish at that track rank him above any of the other Chase finalists. He won two weeks ago at Texas, a somewhat similar track, with the same tire that teams will use Sunday. And having to lose one to win one? Well, Edwards has lost twice. He has finished second in the standings twice without winning the title -- one of only three drivers to finish second in the standings multiple times and not win a title.Why he wont: This is a what have you done for me lately? world. Edwards finished 11th at Homestead in 2015. His average finish in this Chase is 14.9, the worst among the four drivers.4. Kyle BuschJoe Gibbs Racing No. 18 ToyotaChampionships: One (2015)Wins in the third round: NonePoints: 4,113 (second)Why he will win the title: Busch has the best 2016 Chase average finish (7.3) and most 2016 Chase top-5s (six) among the four finalists. He likes to do things that put him on another level: Only three drivers since 1972 have won their first two titles back-to-back.Why he wont: Busch has the longest winless drought among the four finalists; he hasnt won in his last 15 starts. Not only that, he hasnt been in position to win that often -- he has led more than three laps in just two of the Chase races.
