| (MySportsbook) - The Tennessee Titans didn't need rookie quarterback Vince Young to lead them to their fifth straight win last week, because the defense did all the work. The Titans are likely to require more of Young's services on Sunday, when they put the streak and their slim playoff hopes on the line against the similarly hopeful Buffalo Bills at Ralph Wilson Stadium. Tennessee tied a franchise record with three defensive touchdowns in a 24-17 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars last Sunday at LP Field. Ch |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -Except for tight end Bo Scaife, the Tennessee Titans who had missed practice time this week got some work in Friday. Scaife, who injured his ankle, will be a game-time decision Sunday, when the Titans play at Buffalo. He is listed as questionable on the injury report. ``Bo's working good inside. We'll warm Bo up before kickoff and see how he is,'' coach Jeff Fisher said. ``I'm just going to go out there and see how it feels, and if I can, I can, and if I can't, I've still got nex |

If the Seahawks can beat AFC leader San Diego on Sunday, they become the first team since the 2000 Tennessee Titans to make the playoffs the year after they lose a Super Bowl. ``Are we disappointed, are we angry, are we frustrated, can we play better?'' Mike Holmgren says of his team. ``Yes, yes, yes, yes.'' But do they have hope? Yes, yes, yes, yes. At som |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -Tennessee Titans starting cornerback Reynaldo Hill sat out the last part of practice on Thursday with a right ankle injury. Hill has had problems on and off with the ankle this season, but coach Jeff Fisher said Thursday's injury was not an issue. ``He got kicked in the ankle. He should be OK,'' Fisher said. Several other Titans missed practice for a second straight day with knee injuries, including linebacker Peter Sirmon (knee), receiver Drew Bennett, tight end Bo Scaife (ankle |

Yes, for all the fretting over Alexander, Hasselbeck's so-so return from a sprained knee, even the weather, the Seahawks are a win or 49ers loss away from becoming the first team since the 2000 Tennessee Titans to make the postseason the year after losing the Super Bowl. The Chargers, meanwhile, are beelining toward their first Super Bowl since the 1994 season. Two more wins, or a victory and a Baltimore loss at Pittsburgh on Sunday, and San Diego will |

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -In Travis Henry's never-ending search to gain respect, the running back has discovered the hard way how time and perseverance can heal most wounds. Being part of the resurgent Tennessee Titans doesn't hurt either. But there's more to it than that for Henry, a player who's career has been defined by the obstacles he's overcome: injuries, a substance abuse suspension and a bitter trade from Buffalo. It's a reason why the six-year NFL veteran, who is 26 yards rushing short of 1,00 |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -Linebacker Keith Bulluck has a very simple approach to the Tennessee Titans' very slim playoff hopes. Win out, and let coach Jeff Fisher tell him on New Year's Day if they keep playing. The veteran isn't studying scenarios, checking schedules of the teams ahead of the Titans or figuring out who must lose to give Tennessee its first playoff berth since 2003. ``What's the point? That's not my job. My job is to go out and prepare myself to help my teammates to defeat Buffalo this week |

| Nashville, TN (MySportsbook) - Tennessee Titans running back Travis Henry is listed as questionable for Sunday's showdown on the road against Buffalo with an ankle injury. Henry has a team-leading 974 yards rushing and seven touchdowns this season, but has been hampered by the injury for the past several weeks. Despite losing their first five games of the season, the Titans are still alive for the playoffs, as they head into Sunday's game with a 7-7 record.

A Seattle win or San Francisco loss over the next two weeks would give the Seahawks their third straight division title and make Holmgren's team the first Super Bowl runner-up to return to the playoffs in the next season since the 1999 Tennessee Titans. But even in the still-somewhat-likely event of that occurring, the team's road to a second straight NFC title is not exactly of the smooth, freshly-paved variety.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -The Tennessee Titans have learned that a young team can cover up all kinds of problems by making big plays and lots of them. Offense can't move the ball? Defense stranded on the field for 44 minutes, 22 seconds? Not a problem. Three different Titans grabbed turnovers and scored on returns of 83, 92 and 61 yards to pull out a fifth straight victory, a 24-17 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. ``We've had to do things the hard way to win ball games,'' Titans coach Jeff F |
