COMMERCE CITY, Colo. -- Marvin Chavez scored two goals against his former team and Chivas USA ended an eight-game winless streak with a 3-1 victory over the Colorado Rapids on Sunday. Erick Torres opened the scoring with his eighth goal of the season in the 56th minute for Chivas, which had gone 0-5-3 since beating the Chicago Fire in its season opener. Torres header beat goalkeeper Clint Irwin after Chivas didnt put a shot on goal in the first half. Chavez, who made two appearances for Colorado last season, broke free on a breakaway to beat Irwin in the 67th minute and again off a cross in the 76th minute. "I liked that team very much and they always treated me very well," Chavez said. "I am a professional and just do my job." Deshorn Brown scored in stoppage time for Colorado, the Rapids third goal in five games. The Rapids were without leading scorer Vicente Sanchez. who missed a second straight game with a sprained left knee. "We obviously had problems in the back of our defence that we need to address," Colorado coach Pablo Mastroeni said. "They lulled us to sleep, they waited for their opportunities and took full advantage of them." Ricky Wagner Jersey . Dane Dobbie had four goals and two assists, Karsen Leung had two goals and two assists, and Matthew Dinsdale scored two and helped on another for Calgary (6-3). Shawn Evans and Jeff Shattler had eight-point games with a goal and seven assists apiece, and Jon Harnett and Geoff Snider also scored.

Stafford Jersey .com) - The Detroit Pistons and Boston Celtics both entered Wednesday nights game riding lengthy losing streaks.METAIRIE, La. - For much of the past nine years, Marques Colston has been consistently mentioned as a prime example of a late-round draft steal by New Orleans.The 6-foot-4, 225-pound receiver out of Hofstra was taken with the 252nd pick in 2006. Only three players were taken later.In the time since, he has become the Saints all-time leading receiver in three separate categories. As his ninth season is set to end after New Orleans game at Tampa Bay on Sunday, it doesnt appear hes any closer to stepping away from football.Colston is set to make nearly $7 million in 2016 and has a salary cap number much larger. With the Saints (6-9) missing the playoffs for the second time in the past three seasons, changes are likely in the future.While the business of football could force Colston or the Saints to make a decision on the receivers future in New Orleans, he said now isnt the time to look at that.I understand that theres a business side to the off-season, and Ill cross that bridge when I get to it, he said.Friday marked the first time Colston has spoken publicly since the before season opener against Atlanta. In that game, he fumbled on the second play of overtime, a play that ended up costing New Orleans a win on the road; the Falcons kicked a winning field goal on the ensuing drive. As he came off the field, he slammed down his helmet before brushing off overtures by teammate Benjamin Watson.But Colston said that play had little to do with why he hasnt talked, referencing only vaguely that something had been in the media about the Saints he didnt agree with.Just some of the stuff that was in the media earlier in the season, and a lot of it didnt have to do with this locker room, Colston said without elaborating. I just really wasnt a fan of how it was being handled.Whether hes talking or not, he certainly has the full support of his teammates.Ive been lucky to have him for nine years and Im going to be lucky to have him for a few more, quarterback Drew Brees said. Hes a mainstay. Theres not any person who I have played with who has been more steady, more consistent in every way.dddddddddddd Hes the consummate teammate.The combination has been fruitful for both parties.Of Brees 315 touchdown passes with New Orleans, 67 have gone to Colston. Only four quarterback-receiver combinations have more touchdowns in NFL history.The 67 touchdowns are a Saints franchise record. So, too, are Colstons 664 catches and 9,188 yards receiving.Hes one of only four receivers since 2006 with at least 60 touchdowns, 600 receptions and 9,000 yards receiving. Of that group, which includes Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald and Brandon Marshall, Colston is the only one without a Pro Bowl berth.Theres not a lot of receivers that I can think of who have gone through a career which essentially has never been kind of given some of the credit hes due, and never asking for any, said right tackle Zach Strief, who also was taken by the Saints in the 2006 draft.Colston is having statistically one of his worst seasons. The only year with worse numbers was in 2008, when he missed six weeks with a thumb injury.Yet, his 851 yards receiving and 14.9 yards per catch average are a team best. He has been thrown to 92 times this season. Only tight end Jimmy Graham has been targeted more by Brees.Not being able to perform to my standards is tough, but it is what it is this year, Colston said. Ive got a lot to build on this off-season and before we get to that, Ive got to finish strong in Tampa.Hell spend this off-season working toward a 10th year in the NFL. Coach Sean Payton wont be surprised if he returns in good enough shape to survive another season.The way he trains and the way he keeps himself in shape — Im sure theres an attrition to every one of these guys, myself included, that started in 06. But I would say hes one of those guys that does everything necessary to slow down that slope, Payton said. It has been effective.NOTES: Left tackle Terron Armstead (neck) is out for Sundays game. Defensive tackle John Jenkins (abdomen) is listed as questionable.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys 2018 NFL Jerseys Cheap Wholesale Jerseys 2019 Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale ' ' '
