.Walker needs 99 yards receivi Antworten

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Titans tight end Delanie Walker has had the best season of his nine-year career, even breaking a franchise record. Its all been overshadowed playing for one of the NFLs worst teams.If I accomplish goals that I set for myself that just shows that Ive worked hard, Walker said. The record that we have as Titans, it kind of hurts that statement where I come to play and I exceeded with my yards and my catches. But its a team thing. We got to win together, and we got to achieve goals together. I dont think it really matters at the end of the day what I do.With the season finale Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts, Walker has a career-high 847 yards receiving that also ranks second among AFC tight ends. That also is a franchise record, topping Frank Wychecks 768 yards in 1998. Walker needs only five catches Sunday to top his career-best 60 receptions of last season.But the Titans are 2-13 having lost nine straight, 13 of 14. Those losses have overshadowed Walker averaging 15.1 yards a catch — another career-high. Hes shown off unexpected speed for a 6-foot, 248-pound tight end, running away from defenders for a 68-yard TD.Yet tight ends voted to the Pro Bowl announced Tuesday night include Jimmy Graham of New Orleans, New Englands Rob Gronkowski, Greg Olsen of Carolina and Julius Thomas, Denver. Olsen and Graham play for teams with losing records, but both have more yards receiving, catches and touchdowns than Walker, who is an alternate.Coach Ken Whisenhunt said its always hard when a team has a record as the Titans do for players to be voted to the Pro Bowl.Sometimes its really a popularity contest, Whisenhunt said. Weve had some guys that have played hard for us. Delanie Walker is certainly one of those guys. But a lot of times it doesnt work that way, so we certainly understand that.Defensive tackle Jurrell Casey is a first alternate with his five sacks, 25 quarterback pressures and 12 tackles for loss. Casey said Wednesday he wont go if asked because he wants to be picked first when he plays in the Pro Bowl. Walker said he hadnt decided if he would go if tapped because of playoffs or injuries.The Titans have had only one player voted to the Pro Bowl in the last four seasons — cornerback Alterraun Verner for 2013. That coincides with Tennessee having only one winning season in that stretch.Walker needs 99 yards receiving to pass Wycheck for the best back-to-back seasons by a tight end as well.Colts coach Chuck Pagano said Wednesday the NFL currently has a bunch of great tight ends, but Walker certainly has his attention as matchup nightmare.Weve got him listed as a game wrecker, and he had a great game against us the first outing up here, Pagano said. Hes a heck of a threat.Still, a tough season for the team makes enjoying individual accomplishments tough.Long as I know that I played my heart out and gave it all, thats all that matters, Walker said.Notes: The Titans added DT Sammie Hill to the injury report with a sore foot that kept him from practicing Wednesday. Those limited in practice included LT Taylor Lewan (left ankle), QB Zach Mettenberger (right shoulder), OT Byron Stingily (ankle), LB Kamerion Wimbley (left hamstring). LB Zaviar Gooden (hamstring) practiced fully.___Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow Teresa M. Walker at www.twitter.com/teresamwalker Authentic Cheap Jerseys . 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.

But the head linesman said there wasnt enough contact and that Hitchens was face-guarding, which isnt a penalty in the NFL. http://www.wholesalechinajerseys.net/.com) - Hassan Whiteside scored 20 points with nine rebounds in the Miami Heats 83-75 win over the Boston Celtics on Sunday. Cheap NFL jerseys China .Y. - DeMarre Carroll felt as though he couldnt miss in the second quarter as he outscored the Brooklyn Nets 14-13 all by himself. Wholesale Jerseys Authenitc . The time off didnt slow them down. Tyler Zeller scored a season-high 18 points and grabbed a career-best 15 rebounds, Kyrie Irving added 14 points and the Cavaliers pushed their winning streak to five games Tuesday night with a 114-85 victory over the skidding Philadelphia 76ers.(Sports Network) - The Toronto Blue Jays are about to enter the Alex Rodriguez circus. New York enters this twin-bill on the heels of an emotional win in Boston on Sunday that saw the Yankees score four times in the sixth inning in a 9-6 win. Brett Gardeners three-run triple highlighted the big frame, while Rodriguez homered and finished 3-for-4, as the Yanks won for the sixth time in their last eight games. Earlier in the contest Rodriguez had been hit by Ryan Dempster (6-9), resulting in both benches clearing briefly and New York manager Joe Girardi being ejected from the game after both teams received warnings. "Whether you like me or hate me, whats wrong is wrong. That was unprofessional and silly," Rodriguez said. "Today kind of brought us together." New York finds itself eight games back of the Red Sox in the division and is 6 1/2 back of the wild card. Getting the call for the Yanks in game one will be right-hander Ivan Nova, who is 6-4 with a 2.99 ERA. Nova picked up the win against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim on Wednesday, as he allowed three runs and 10 hits in 7 1/3 innings. He also struck out six without walking a batter. Nova has been magnificent over his past seven starts, posting a 1.89 ERA with 50 strikeouts to 12 walks over 52 1/3 innings. Phil Hughes will go for the Yanks in the second game after a solid outing his last time out. The right-hander, who has pitched to a 6.03 ERA at Yankee Stadium, is just 2-10 with a 5.23 ERA over his past 16 starts overall. Hughes lost to the Angels on Thursday, but pitched well, giving up three runs and six hits in six innings. Still, he fell to 4-12 on the year to go along with a 4.97 ERA. "It was obviously better; it was hard tto pitch much worse than I had been," Hughes said.dddddddddddd. "It felt like the results werent exactly what I wanted, but I felt like I threw the ball OK. But at the end of the day, its a loss, which is not what we set out to accomplish today." Toronto, meanwhile, lost two of three over the weekend to Tampa Bay and has dropped five of its last eight. The Jays are in the midst of 10-game road trip and are 26-35 away from home this season. Theyll hand the ball to righty Esmil Rogers in the first game on Tuesday. Rogers did not get a decision on Wednesday in an emergency start against Boston, but was terrific, allowing just a run and five hits in six innings of his teams 4-3 win. He is 3-7 on the year with a 4.91 ERA and is winless in his last 10 appearances. Getting the ball in the second game for Toronto will be lefty Mark Buehrle, who has won his last four decisions. Buehrle beat the Red Sox on Thursday, limiting them to a run and 10 hits in seven innings to push his record to 9-7, while lowering his ERA to 4.29. The Blue Jays have won each of Buehrles last five starts and he is 4-0 over that span with a 2.36 ERA. "Im just trying to get on a roll right now," Buehrle said. "I dont care if were out of the playoffs, or in the playoffs, if were in the thick of it. I go out there and try to win every start. No matter what the situation is, Im going out there trying to compete and trying to win." New York, though, has given him fits over his career. Buehrle has already lost twice to the Yankees this season and is just 1-10 lifetime against them with a 6.28 ERA in 15 starts. The Yankees have beaten the Blue Jays in eight of nine matchups this season, including all six in the Bronx. ' ' '
