The BC Lions has extended head coach Mike Benevides contract through the 2016 season. Benevides enters his third year at coaching the Lions after taking over from Wally Buono in 2011. He has posted a 24-12 regular season record over the past two seasons. “Mike continues to grow as both a coach and a leader and hes earned this extension,” said Lions general manager Wally Buono. “He has led our team to winning regular season records and consecutive playoff appearances while putting his own unique stamp on the team and his staff.” Benevides has spent the past 10 seasons as a member of the Lions staff starting out as the clubs special teams coordinator and linebackers coach from 2003 to 2007 and defensive coordinator from 2008 to 2011. The ultimate goal is to win a championship and to say that anything has truly been accomplished yet would not be accurate," Benevides said Tuesday. "I am very proud of the men we have assembled to try and bring home the Grey Cup this year and I will continue to make that our number one goal each and every day I have the privilege of leading these outstanding men.” The Lions open the 2014 regular season Saturday at home against the Edmonton Eskimos.

Paul Richardson Redskins Jersey .Y. -- Kristen Gillman rallied to win the U.LANDOVER, Md. -- Johnny Manziel raised his middle finger toward the Washington Redskins bench as he returned to the huddle late in the third quarter. It was one of the few times a Cleveland Browns quarterback actually found his intended target. Manziels latest hand gesture was one of many lowlights for the Browns in a 24-23 Monday night loss that did little to make coach Mike Pettines decision any easier when it comes to selecting a Week 1 starter. If the choice is based solely on numbers, theres not much either Manziel or Brian Hoyer did to show he deserves the job. If its based on composure, the hot-shot rookies obscene gesture lost him some ground to the nondescript sixth-year veteran. "It does not sit well," Pettine said. "Its disappointing, because what we talk about is being poised and being focused. ... Thats a big part of all football players, especially the quarterback." Manziel called the moment a "lapse of judgment." Teammate Joe Haden said opposition fans and players were giving "Johnny Football" plenty of unprintable verbal grief for the second straight week. Manziel was openly mocked by Brian Orakpo when the Redskins linebacker raised both hands and performed the 2012 Heisman Trophy winners "money" gesture after a sack by Ryan Kerrigan in the first quarter. "I get words exchanged throughout the entirety of the game, every game, week after week, and I shouldve been smarter," Manziel said. "It was a Monday Night Football game and cameras were probably solid on me, and I just need to be smarter about that. ... Its there, and its present every game, and I just need to let it slide off my back and go to the next play." Meanwhile, Pettine needs to pick a quarterback. The performances were so unspectacular that the coach suggested he might audible from his previously stated plan of announcing his regular-season starter on Tuesday. "All the options are still on the table," Pettine said. Hoyer started Monday night and completed 2 of 6 passes for 16 yards. His self-assessment: "It probably couldnt have been any worse. Its disappointing. It was embarrassing." Manziel, the No. 22 oveerall pick in the draft, was 7 for 16 for 65 yards and a touchdown.ddddddddddddOf his series early in the game, he said: "I really tried to force everything and not let it fly like I should have. I need to get better at that and throw the dang ball." Those stats, as mediocre as they are, were padded by series against the Redskins backups. In the first quarter -- when Washingtons starters were in the game -- Manziel was 2 for 7 for 29 yards, while Hoyer was 0 for 2. "They both missed some throws," Pettine said. If theres any hint as to which way Pettine is leaning, its worth noting that Hoyer started for the second consecutive game and played mostly with the first-team offence, while Manziel was sent out with the backups to play in the second half. Manziel took advantage by leading a 16-play, 68-yard drive capped by an 8-yard pass to Dion Lewis for Clevelands first touchdown. The sloppy game included 21 penalties and five turnovers. The Browns were particularly susceptible to the NFLs new emphasis on hindering receivers: Clevelands defence was whistled five times for holding or illegal contact in the first quarter alone, including twice on one play. The Redskins dont have a quarterback competition, but their former Heisman winner -- Robert Griffin III -- also needs some work to get to regular-season form. He finished 6 for 8 for 112 yards, including an off-balance throw that was picked off by Haden. "I just cant throw it late," Griffin said. "And if I do, it has to be a humdinger -- and it wasnt a humdinger. I kind of floated it out there." Designed QB runs are being marginalized under new Redskins coach Jay Gruden, but Griffin was nevertheless hit hard several times as he scrambled four times for 24 yards and earned a thigh bruise along the way. "Its nothing to worry about," Griffin said. "I know anything that happens with me -- or quarterbacks in general -- guys get a little worried." Notes: Browns WR Travis Benjamin left with a rib injury. ... At least the game had an exciting ending. Connor Shaw hit Emmanuel Ogbuehi on a 45-yard Hail Mary as time expired. The Browns 2-point conversion attempt failed.
