DENVER -- Broncos offensive lineman Chris Kuper is retiring after struggling with an ankle injury the last two seasons. Kuper, a fifth-round pick in Denvers 2006 draft, started 79 games at guard over eight seasons. He dislocated his left ankle in the last game of the 2011 regular season, and though he started another seven games after that, he never returned to his previous level. Kuper was the last player left on the Denver roster from a 2006 draft class that included Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall and Elvis Dumervil. Los Angeles Dodgers Jerseys .

We have to break it.Despite being outscored 41-20 in the first half, the Ravens won three of their final four games to squeeze into the playoffs. Baltimores offence produced only seven first-quarter points during that span, a performance hardly befitting the highest-scoring team in franchise history.Its something we need to address and fix and make sure it doesnt happen, quarterback Joe Flacco said. But I think the biggest thing is just to go out there and be aggressive and do the things that we do well and make the plays when theyre presented to us.Of Baltimores 30 first-half possessions in December, 14 ended with punts and four with turnovers. There was also a missed field goal, and once the Ravens turned the ball over on downs.The last thing the Ravens need is another early lockdown by their offence Saturday night during their wild-card game at Pittsburgh.You dont want to put yourself in a hole. You have to play better, receiver Steve Smith said. But at the same time, its the playoffs. Anything happens, and everything happens. We just have to play ball, and we have to play better, and we have to make more plays than them. And hopefully, at the end of the game, we have more on the scoreboard than they do.Overall, its been a great year for Baltimores offence under first-year co-ordinator Gary Kubiak. The Ravens scored 409 points, ranking eighth in the NFL with a 25.6 averrage, and yielded only 19 sacks compared with 48 last year.ddddddddddddFlacco set career marks in yards passing (3,986) and touchdown passes (27). He produced comeback wins over Cleveland, Jacksonville and Miami in December but clearly would prefer not to work from behind against the Steelers.The biggest thing is just moving the ball and not giving them a lot of third-down chances to really get up and get going early on in the game, Flacco said. Weve probably hurt ourselves more so than anything with false starts and little things like that. And when you do that —especially on the road — you give their crowd a good chance to get into it and really get fired up. A three-and-out definitely energizes them, and usually it carries over to the next series. He speaks from experience. On Dec. 21 in Houston, the Ravens went three-and-out on four of their first five series, fell behind 16-0 at halftime and couldnt climb out of the hole.The biggest thing we have to do is move the ball early and get into the flow of the game, Flacco said.The Ravens were limited to only three points over the first three quarters against Cleveland last Sunday before pulling out a win with 17 points over the final 15 minutes. Sure, they might be able to do the same thing against the Steelers, but counting on that is dangerous.Slow starts, third downs, touchdowns in the red zone — especially when you play Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh — those are things you really need to do well, coach John Harbaugh said. We need to do better at those things if we expect to come out of there with a victory.___Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
