Clippers beat Lakers in Kobe Bryant’s last Christmas game
He will consider promoting Russell and/or Randle again in January, at the conclusion of the Lakers’ seemingly monthlong road trek. That’s how I have confidence out there that I can play at a high level every night. “So that was encouraging”.

The disconcerting performance, briefly interrupted by the novelty of Marcus Mariotacatching a 41-yard touchdown pass from running back Antonio Andrews, increases the likelihood that Mularkey’s tenure in Nashville ends with the regular season.

Even though the Lakers went 2-8 during the stint , Scott is going to stay that course for now. That was a 17 percent increase from the 9.3 million for the Cavaliers-Heat game a year ago .

-COACHING: A. Head coach Todd Bowles did a terrific job of ensuring the Jets wouldn’t fall for a “trap game”.


N.W.A. To Be Inducted Into Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame
Thanks to all the fans who have supported us for all these years and to the Hall of Fame members who cast their votes. All nominated artists had to have put out their first album or single at least 25 years ago to be in consideration.

Only the Giants (5-7 entering Monday night) and Colts (6-7) have allowed opponents to gash them more often through the air. We played poorly in all three phases for one reason or another.

The fact the Jets are even in this position is a credit to Bowles.

“I don’t think we played a complete game”, he said. If we’re going to go anywhere, it’s not the defense that’s going to take us. “It has to be corrected”.

All hail Ryan Fitzpatrick!

Fitzpatrick, who has set a single-season career high with 25 touchdown throws, finished 21 of 36 for 263 yards.

I don’t think we’ve peaked yet. “Not an excuse, but we had no communication to the field or upstairs”.

On their next possession, the Jets drove 72 yards in seven plays, scoring on Powell’s 16-yard reception from Fitzpatrick.

Jets kicker Randy Bullock was nearly flawless on the afternoon, tallying 12 points on three extra points, while going three for four on field goals, including a long of 47 yards.

Fitzpatrick, Marshall and WR Eric Decker have thrived as a trio, and Decker had 101 yards on eight catches last week.

On the team’s opening drive of the game: “We talked about starting fast in the locker room”.

When the Jets got the ball back, Fitzpatrick threw the ball to uncovered receiver Brandon Marshall, who caught the pass and beat everyone to the end zone to make it 27-0 at halftime. “We understand that and we’re just going to continue to get better as a team”.

“It’s one of those things where when things get ugly, they get ugly, ” linebacker Brian Orakpo said.

The best option the Titans have on offense to really take the Jets out of the game is to get Mariota to break contain and get outside the edges, if he can drain the Jets defensive front, the passing game will get easy with a exhausted pass rush. The defense sealed the deal late in the game as the Titans walked away with the 42-39 victory. The Titans have lost at least 10 games in consecutive seasons for only the second time since moving to Tennessee in 1997.

“Yeah”, he said. “I’d love to be back”. The Titans will have to make a roster move to add a player to fill his spot. A two-point conversion pass from Mariota to McCluster made it 27-8 with 4:09 remaining in the third quarter. Overall this season, Wright has 33 catches for 390 yards and three touchdowns. “I played receiver growing up, and had experience in high school as a receiver”. “I think that pretty much changed the mojo and changed everything”. Tight end Delanie Walker followed with his first dropped pass this season on the first drive for the offense.

The Titans travel to Foxboro to take on the New England Patriots next Sunday and come home to Music City to take on a Houston Texans team that has a real shot at winning the AFC South and earning a playoff game.

“We just didn’t execute”, wide receiver Harry Douglas said. The Titans can now officially look toward what they’ll do with another top-five pick – though who will be making that pick is decidedly unknown.
