MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Reviews on the weather were mixed Sunday at the Miami Dolphins-Arizona Cardinals game.Every time we got the ball it seemed like it was pouring, like a monsoon, Cardinals receiver J.J. Nelson said. Ive never played in anything like that.Dolphins receiver Jarvis Landry found the rain fun.When you think about football, you dream about this type of game, he said.Guess which team won.Frequent heavy showers made for a sloppy game, and the Cardinals were unable to overcome four turnovers in the first 20 minutes, losing 26-23 .Carson Palmer threw two interceptions and lost a fumble when he bobbled a snap . David Johnson also lost a fumble. A slick ball contributed to all four giveaways by a team accustomed to desert conditions, not monsoons.We practiced with a wet ball on Wednesday and didnt have any problems, Arizona coach Bruce Arians said. But when it continually pours when you have the ball, which was kind of odd, its tough.Palmer agreed the timing on the passing showers was weird.Every time we had the ball, it just started turning on and staying on, Palmer said. Then it would stop.Turnovers are a big reason the Cardinals (5-7-1) will likely sit out the playoffs. They have 26 turnovers this year, two more than in 2015, when they went 13-3.Road missteps have been a chronic problem too. Arizona is 1-5 away from home, including 0-4 in games in the Eastern time zone. Last season the Cardinals went 8-1 away from home.In Miami, turnovers were far from the only issue. Palmer threw for only 145 yards. Larry Fitzgerald had just 12 yards receiving. Johnson, who came into the game leading the NFL in touchdowns, was kept out of the end zone.Chander Catanzaro missed a field-goal attempt and two extra points, with one blocked PAT returned for a 2-point conversion by Walt Aikens , who didnt mind the weather a bit.What weather? Aikens said. Football weather. Perfect. Not so much for the offense, but for the defense. Reminds me of my childhood.The blocked kick and Aikens score with 7:05 left represented a three-point swing, which turned out to be the difference in the game.So it has gone in 2016 for the Cardinals.The ball, Palmer said, has not bounced our way once.---For more NFL coverage: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Steven Wine on Twitter: http://twitter.com/Steve-Wine.

After a first half in which he thought "the lid was on the basket," the Toronto Raptors coach watched his squad mount a second half surge to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers 98-91. Cheap Nike Blazers Jerseys .Y. -- Vancouver Canucks goaltender Roberto Luongo had little trouble picking up his first shutout of the season against a Buffalo Sabres team thats having trouble scoring goals. New York Knicks point guard Brandon Jennings seemed to poke fun Sunday on Twitter at the fact that Team USA reserve forward Harrison Barnes barely played during the U.S. mens Olympic basketball teams eight-game journey to a gold medal.A fan then countered that Barnes at least made the Olympic team, to which Jennings replied that Barnes only made the 12-man roster because several notable star players -- including LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Russell Westbrook and James Harden -- stayed home from Rio.After Team USA had all but clinched the gold-medal game against Serbia midway through the fourth quarter, head coach Mike Krzyzewski inserted Barnes for the first time, which apppeared to please Jennings.ddddddddddddAll in all, Barnes averaged a team-low 7.8 minutes per game in Rio, and played in only half of Team USAs eight contests. The next-closest teammate in terms of fewest minutes played was Barnes former teammate, Draymond Green, who averaged 9.8 minutes per game. Still, Green played in all eight of Team USAs games (DeMar DeRozan was the only other American to sit out a game, and he missed one contest).Jennings is notably active on Twitter and has been known to speak his mind on a number of topics over the years.
