Home sweet home?

ASHBURN Jimmy Moreland Washington Redskins Jersey , Va. (AP) — layers right now.Even though Washington has won three of five home games this season and leads the NFC East, cornerback Josh Norman called out Redskins fans in the aftermath of an ugly victory at Tampa Bay and said he felt they played better on the road. In the process, he put the spotlight on the atmosphere Sunday at FedEx Field when the AFC South-leading Houston Texans come to town.Norman said home games are “like the other team’s turf” because of an infusion of opposing fans and opined that Redskins fans “just boo everything and aren’t really behind us.” Teammates hope that sentiment works to provide a spark of energy for the rest of the year.“We have a really good team and what it comes down to is myself and Josh, we want to be backed up, and we don’t want it to feel like it’s 50/50 when we’re at our home field and they have as many fans as we do,” running back Chris Thompson said. “We just want everybody to be there. That’s it. We want our fans to be out there and just have our backs.”The Redskins organization began a concerted effort in the offseason to try to improve the fan experience at the stadium in suburban Maryland. Aware a sellout streak the team boasted had lasted the past 50 seasons would end, the decision was made to stop selling as many tickets to brokers and try to draw back in some of the disillusioned fans of a franchise that has just three playoff victories since its last Super Bowl title from the 1991 season.Washington’s average attendance of 61,201 ranks 26th in the NFL, and its 74.6 percent-of-capacity crowd ranks dead last. Chief marketing officer Steve Ziff said prior to the season there’s no timeline for when he expects fans to return in droves like the glory days at RFK Stadium.“We’re going to do things right for as long as it takes,” Ziff said. “Every day the goal is to do things right and hopefully over time, win or lose, fans will buy into that.”Right now, the Redskins are winning. At 6-3, they’re two games up in the division and on pace for their first postseason appearance since 2015.But Thompson, who has been with the team since 2013, understands there are long-term issues under the surface leading to fans staying away. Decades of mediocre on-field performance, polarizing opinions about owner Dan Snyder and the location of FedEx Field are all factors that have nothing to do with the current roster and its wins and losses.“All the responses I see all the time is, ‘We’ve been fans for 10-plus years, we’ve been fans for 25 years — whatever the case may be — and we haven’t gotten any results (and) the Redskins have been terrible,'” Thompson said. “I’ve been here for six years. I understand. I know. I’ve been to one playoff game in six years.”If the Redskins win the division and host a playoff game, the stands will be rocking like the old days — especially if Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings are the opponent. But to get there Jimmy Moreland Jersey 2019 , they could use a boost at home so players don’t feel like they’re in unfriendly confines.For quarterback Alex Smith, it’s all about the cadence and ability to communicate verbally.“The big thing offensively is communication that you can count on,” Smith said Wednesday. “To be at home and be able to communicate, I think you can do more in the huddle and do more at the line of scrimmage.”On defense, it’s the opposite. The Redskins are coming off allowing 501 yards but only three points to the Buccaneers, and they’re counting on noise against DeShaun Watson and the Texans, who have won six in a row since an 0-3 start.“The fans play a big part in the way defenses can play, in the way the atmosphere is out there,” linebacker Mason Foster said. “When you get those guys going crazy in the stands, it’s hard for quarterbacks to communicate, it’s hard for them to audible at the line. When you get that going, I think it’s a tough place to play at FedEx.”NOTES: Coach Jay Gruden said left tackle Trent Williams (thumb) won’t play Sunday and there’s a good chance Thompson (ribs) is out, too. … In addition to Williams and Thompson, WR Jamison Crowder (ankle), CB Quinton Dunbar (shin), S Montae Nicholson (illness) and K Dustin Hopkins (groin) did not practice. Gruden said the team would see how Hopkins is Friday before deciding whether to sign another kicker. … With Crowder still on the mend, rookie WR Trey Quinn was activated off injured reserve and added to the active roster. On Wednesday, one day before Washington running back Adrian Peterson played on one of the biggest stages of the season, a Bleacher Report interview emerging containing quotes from Peterson indicating that he still spanks his son with a belt, four years after facing felony child abuse charges and a lengthy NFL suspension. On Thursday, it was hard to find any mention whatsoever of this development.Peterson Cheap Jimmy Moreland Jersey , one of the best players in league history and a sure-fire Hall of Famer, nevertheless subjected himself to scrutiny from the league by saying what he said, ground rules of the interview notwithstanding. But the NFL has issued no comment regarding the matter, and the TV coverage of the Washington-Dallas game contained scant, if any, references to the situation.Is it potentially a big deal? Based on the plain terms of the letter that the league sent to Peterson in 2014, yes. Given that the situation surfaced the day before Thanksgiving, there likely wasn’t much that the league could do before kickoff.Still, given the post-Ray Rice commitment to aggressively investigating and disciplining players for off-field misconduct, and in light of the facts that gave rise to the problems Peterson encountered in the immediate aftermath of the Rice fiasco, the widespread silence approaches deafening.A Friday statement wouldn’t be a surprise; the league will have a hard time saying nothing at all, given that the statement issued on Peterson’s behalf does not contain a clear denial that he said what was reported. At a minimum, the league presumably will ask Peterson clear, direct questions regarding what he said and, more importantly, what he does when imposing discipline on his children.The passage of time is irrelevant. If there’s still an issue, it’s impossible for the league to ignore it. So the first step will be to explore whether there’s an issue. Whether the league makes a comment or not, the NFL would have a hard time reconciling doing nothing with everything the league has done since 2014 to police the private lives of its players.

I'm up for whatever, my thought was to focus on MQTT itself since its used for lots of things other than home automation but to include a quick demo of how I am using it for home automation at the end.
