| Indianapolis, IN (MySportsbook) - Indianapolis tight end Dallas Clark will miss Sunday's contest against the Tennessee Titans with a right knee injury. Clark left Monday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles with a sprained right knee and did not return. Clark, a favorite target of quarterback Peyton Manning, has 26 catches for 311 yards and four touchdowns this season. In other injury news, defensive tackle Raheem Brock (chest), offensive tackle Ryan Diem (abdomen), cornerbacks Bob Sanders (knee) and Nick |

| three touchdown passes." With the win, the Seahawks (7-4) opened up a two-game lead on the second-place Rams and 49ers (both 5-6) in the NFC West, drawing ever-closer to breaking the runner-up jinx that has afflicted every Super Bowl loser since the Tennessee Titans made a return trip to the playoffs in 2000. At this stage, Seattle doesn't quite look like the same team that stormed through the NFC last season, but the improving health of its backfield tandem of Hasselbeck and Alexander offers hope that the emer |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -The Tennessee Titans owe the Indianapolis Colts a thank you. They left Indianapolis Oct. 8 with their fifth straight loss to start the season, but the Titans led Peyton Manning and the Colts for nearly 55 minutes. They also had the ball at the end of the game with a chance to win before losing 14-13. Talk about a confidence booster. ``I think Indianapolis really was the turning point of our season if there was one this year,'' defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch said Wednesday. ``We |

Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator Norm Chow said through a team spokesman that he had not been approached about the job, while University of Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton said nobody has approached him about discussing the vacancy with offensive coordinator David Cutcliffe.

With Adam ``Pacman'' Jones getting him the ball back with two interceptions, Young led the Tennessee Titans to the greatest NFL comeback victory by a rookie quarterback. The athletic Young was supposed to be a three-year project? Jones allegedly was too short to play cornerback in the NFL, and his personal struggles overshadowed any plays he could make |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -New York Giants tight end Jeremy Shockey dislocated his ring finger during pre-game warmups Sunday, but he planned to play against the Tennessee Titans. Shockey caught a few passes from Jared Lorenzen during the coin toss and kept shaking his left hand. The tight end ranks second for the Giants with 39 catches for 403 yards and five touchdowns.

PITTSBURGH (AP) -No NFL quarterback knows the Pittsburgh Steelers as well as Steve McNair does. McNair, the longtime Tennessee Titans star now with the Baltimore Ravens, has opposed the Steelers 14 times since breaking into the NFL 11 years ago. He's won in the playoffs against them, an overtime game in Nashville in January 2003, and has been difficult to defend because of his size and arm strength. To Steelers coach Bill Cowher, it is obvious that McNair has made a difference to the Ravens (8-2), who le |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -The Tennessee Titans are in a stretch that can be called their own version of a Manning family reunion. They host Eli and his New York Giants on Sunday, with his brother Peyton and the Indianapolis Colts coming up next. The Giants only hope Eli Manning starts playing more like his big brother. And soon. Manning is coming off two of his worst games since his rookie season, and the Giants (6-4) have lost each. They must beat the Titans (3-7) to tie Dallas atop the NFC East before hos |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -The Tennessee Titans have found the perfect way to ease the pressure on rookie quarterback Vince Young: Run, run and run some more. And they're doing it better than anyone in the NFL right now. The Titans are averaging a league-best 166.2 rushing yards over their past six games, a stretch during which they've won three and lost by a point to Indianapolis and Baltimore. Coach Jeff Fisher it's what they wanted to do all along. ``We've spent an awful lot of time looking at it,'' he |
