Adelaide midfielder Richard Douglas says the Crows have proven themselves against the competitions best and will enter the AFL finals confident of doing so again.The Crows 29-point loss to West Coast at Adelaide Oval on Friday dashed their hopes of securing a top-four finish and a double-chance in the finals.It also caused some to question whether Adelaide have what it takes to win the flag after struggling to handle the Eagles frenetic pressure.Veteran midfielder Douglas says Sydney and Geelong will rightly be considered favourites for the flag after finishing first and second respectively but the Crows shouldnt be written off on the back of their poor showing against West Coast.He believes Adelaide are capable of achieving a repeat of 1998 when they won the flag from outside the top four, a feat which hasnt been achieved under the current finals system.We dont fear any side in the finals, Douglas told AAP.Weve beaten Sydney this year, which gives us great confidence. We havent played great footy against Geelong but weve learnt from those games.Were as good as anyone out there. Weve got a really potent forward line and we can score really quickly, so Im sure teams coming up against us would be worried about that.The Crows have notched home wins this year against Sydney, Greater Western Sydney and North Melbourne but lost twice to Geelong and have been patchy on the road.First-year coach Don Pyke was criticised for not appearing to adjust his gameplan during the loss to West Coast but Douglas described the commentary as unfair.We didnt compete hard enough around the ball and we didnt apply pressure when they had the footy, he said.Unless you get those two things, you cant compete in a game of footy no matter what your structure is ahead of the ball or behind the ball.Pykey cant really control that. Its our mindset and the way we approach the game and it wasnt quite at the right level.Douglas says the Crows senior players will look to emulate reigning premiers Hawthorn and get better at issuing directions on the field.Its something we talk about all the time, to be able to change the course of a game out there and not wait until the breaks in the quarters, the 29-year-old said.Were all aspiring to be able to do that. Its going to be important come the finals.

BEREA, Ohio -- Surprisingly, Terrelle Pryor didnt disagree with Adam Jones heated outburst about him.Hes got an argument with the media, though.Following Cincinnatis win over Cleveland on Sunday, Jones, the Bengals chatty cornerback, tore into Pryor, calling him garbage several times .At one point, Jones grabbed a trash can inside the locker room and called out Pryors name to see if he was inside the bin. Pryor made only catch for 3 yards in the 23-10 loss.Hes right, Pryor said. I was garbage. One catch, 3 yards. It was an accurate statement.But while Pryor seems to have moved on from Jones, his new beef seems to be with how hes being covered.On Wednesday, Pryor, who didnt talk after the game and declined an interview request Monday, chastised reporters for saying he got into an on-field argument during the game with Browns quarterback Robert Griffin III. As the Browns were driving for their only touchdown, Pryor and Griffin had an exchange as Cleveland was forced to call a timeout.Griffin explained that Pryor wanted to run a play that was called and the Browns had to use a timeout because the play clock was winding down.Pryor contends he and Griffin were not fighting.You guys cant assume, because me and Rob wasnt arguing, he said. I go and read in the articles you guys are saying that I am arguing with my teammate. Thats trying to break up this team and all were trying to do is come in here and fight for a win.I come in here and talk to you guys face to face. Im very honest with you guys, have fun with you guys, and then you guys paint a picture about me to be a bad person.And try to put some type oof stigma between me and my teammates.dddddddddddd So I appreciate if you guys would stop assuming and get the actual story before you write something.Pryors temper has been an issue before, prompting coach Hue Jackson to address it with the 27-year-old former quarterback.Jackson wants Pryor to channel his emotions in a positive direction.Terrelle understands, he said. We have common ground. I support Terrelle 100 percent, but there are certain things that he knows I want our players to emulate. It is not that. We will move from there and grow from it.Terrelles passion is one to win. It does not come from a bad place. He is not a belligerent man or anything like that. I just think sometimes that energy gets directed the wrong way and energy needs to stay on the field and do what we need him to do to be successful.Pryor, who can become a free agent in March, maintains hes a team player and that his passion drives him.You can ask all of my teammates, Im not a guy that causes any beef or drama on the team, he said. Thats not me. Am I on the sidelines fiery, am I in the game fiery, absolutely. I wouldnt think that the fans or my coaches or anyone else would want me to not play that way any other time.And if I play any other way and just shut up and didnt do anything, I dont think Id play as well, so Im just continuing to try to get better.Ive got to get better and thats all Im looking forward to.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
