SEATTLE -- For all the flaws, the Seattle Seahawks are back where they always expected to be. Johnathan Joseph Jersey .In the postseason and as champions of the NFC West.I think its a huge significance in terms of consistency, Seattle coach Pete Carroll said. Its something that we really do take great pride in because of the implications for the playoffs.Russell Wilson threw three touchdown passes, Tyler Lockett had 130 yards receiving and a score, and the Seahawks won the NFC West with a 24-3 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday night.Seattle claimed its third division title in four seasons, assuring itself of at least one home game in the playoffs and keeping the pressure on Detroit in the competition for the No. 2 seed in the NFC and a first-round bye. Seattle also snapped a three-game losing streak to the Rams.Seattle became the first team in the NFL to clinch its division, the result of playing in the NFC West in a season where no one was particularly good. The Seahawks have their shortcomings, which were shown again against the Rams. Seattle simply had more tools than anyone else in the division to overcome their flaws.It wasnt a completely smooth evening for the Seahawks. Richard Sherman was seen yelling toward coaches on the sideline in the third quarter moments before Doug Baldwins 1-yard touchdown catch. Sherman said he was expressing his displeasure toward Carroll with the decision to throw on first-and-goal from the 1, a pass by Wilson that was nearly intercepted.Weve already seen how that goes. Im sure you guys have seen that play enough times, Sherman said.It wasnt an impressive display by Seattle (9-4-1), but was far better than Sunday when the Seahawks were blown out by Green Bay with Wilson throwing five interceptions.Wilson was good enough against the listless Rams. After slogging through the first half, Wilson threw a 1-yard touchdown pass to Doug Baldwin late in the third quarter for a 17-3 lead, then put the game away on a 57-yard touchdown strike to Lockett on the second play of the fourth quarter.Wilson finished 19 of 26 for 229 yards, but also threw a careless interception at the goal line midway through the fourth quarter. Seven of those passes went to Lockett, whose previous career high was 104 yards. Luke Willson also had an 8-yard TD catch in the first half.Another mostly forgettable Thursday night game was made at least somewhat more entertaining by the Seahawks and their highlighter green uniforms that drew wild opinions all over social media. The Action Green uniforms had very little action in the first half, before a second-half effort that assured another banner would be raised at CenturyLink Field.A tumultuous few days for the Rams (4-10) after the firing of Jeff Fisher as head coach culminated in their fifth straight loss and first under interim coach John Fassel. The Rams defensive front caused problems for Seattle in the first half but the Los Angeles offense provided zero help.Its just a lesson for me that you always have to be ready to adapt and take on responsibilities that you didnt anticipate, Fassel said. But its an experience that of course Ill never forget.Jared Goff was 13 of 25 for 135 yards before leaving in the fourth quarter to be checked for a possible concussion. The Rams finished with 183 total yards, but 90 of those came in the fourth quarter.QUIET GURLEYLos Angeles running back Todd Gurley was again unable to get started in the run game, continuing a frustrating second season. Gurley was held to 38 yards on 14 carries. He did have a 22-yard run late in the second quarter that set up Greg Zuerleins 36-yard field goal, but it as just his second run of 20 yards or more this season. Gurley had 11 runs of 20 or more yards last year.There is no reason Gurley should get hit the way he gets hit sometimes because we dont set up a block for him, Los Angeles offensive lineman Rodger Saffold said.SACK ATTACKAfter getting no pressure on the quarterback in the past three weeks, the Seahawks rediscovered their pass rush.Seattle had two sacks in the first half and finished with four after the Seahawks had five total sacks in the previous five weeks. Cliff Avril was the main culprit with 1 1/2 sacks, giving him a career-high 11 1/2 for the season.INJURY REPORTSeattle defensive end Michael Bennett suffered neck strain in the fourth quarter on a collision with Gurley, Carroll said. A few plays later, Goff was taken from the game to be checked for a concussion after a sideline hit by Richard Sherman. He was replaced by Case Keenum.Even Seattle punter Jon Ryan got added to the injury list after suffering concussion in the fourth quarter on a fake punt. Ryan ran 26 yards before bobbling the ball and getting hit in the helmet falling to the turf.UP NEXTRams: Los Angeles will return home to host San Francisco.Seahawks: Seattle will host Arizona in its final home game.---For more NFL coverage: www.pro32.ap.org and twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap Texans Jerseys Authentic .com) - The Pittsburgh Penguins placed forward James Neal on injured reserve Tuesday.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- After years of frustration with an anemic offense, Wake Forest finally had a pair of breakout performers in last weeks road win at Duke. But before the conclusion of the first quarter of Saturdays game against Delaware, both of those players were sidelined due to injury.At least this week, it didnt matter.Sophomore running back Matt Colburn rushed for a career-high 118 yards and a touchdown, and quarterback John Wolford scored a pair of touchdowns to go with 155 passing yards and another 70 on the ground as the injury-riddled Demon Deacons knocked off Delaware 38-21 on Saturday.Colburn proved a capable replacement for injured freshman Cade Carney, who scored three touchdowns in Wake Forests 24-14 victory at Duke. Colburn powered through for a 1-yard touchdown just before halftime and averaged 4.9 yards per carry.Thats what we work on in practice. We work to be ready, Colburn said. When one guy goes down, the next guy has got to be ready to step up to the plate. It just so happened thats what happened for me tonight, and I just took everything, made the most of my opportunities that I could.He wasnt the only reserve forced into action due to injury.Quarterback Kendall Hinton, starting his second career game after leading all four Deacon scoring drives at Duke, pulled up with an injury of his own during a run late in the first quarter. Hinton was not hit on the play, but went to the ground immediately after sustaining a left knee sprain. He did not return, and coach Dave Clawson said Hintons status moving forward was uncertain.In his stead, former starter Wolford returned to action. While his passing performance was inconsistent, the Deacons dominance on the ground ensured it wouldnt matter.Wake Forest, which moved to 3-0 for the first time since 2008, ran for 302 yards. Five different players registered at least 30 yards rushing.Weve been getting better every game. Derek Newton Jersey. Our rushing attack is so much better than last year, said Colburn. Its really exciting to see, and its really gratifying when we produce those results.The Deacons dominated in a manner that the final score did not demonstrate, piling up 481 yards of total offense while holding the Blue Hens to 94. But a pair of turnovers inside their own 20-yard line gave Delaware two quick scores, and Wake Forests lead was only 17-14 before Colburns touchdown run.But the Deacons followed up on his score by beginning the third quarter with a 10-play, 75-yard TD drive that extended their lead to 31-14 and ended any thoughts of an upset.We never make it easy, Clawson said. But I thought for the most part, we dominated play.THE TAKEAWAYWake Forest: The win was Clawsons ninth overall at Wake Forest, and his third against Championship Subdivision opponents. While the Deacons have struggled in recent seasons, they have fared well against FCS schools, winning by an average margin of 23.6 points under Clawson.Delaware: The Blue Hens fell for the fifth consecutive time against a Bowl Subdivision opponent. Their last victory against an FBS foe came in 2007, a 59-52 win over Navy.GROUND TO A HALTSaturdays performance was the first time Wake Forest held an opponent to fewer than 100 yards since a 1952 game against Furman, when the Deacons did not allow a single yard. Any time you hold the other team to under 100, youve got to be happy with the overall physicality of the game, Clawson said.UP NEXTWake Forest: The Demon Deacons will look for their first 4-0 start since 2006 when they visit Indiana. That 2006 squad went on to win Wake Forests second, and most recent, ACC championship.Delaware: The Blue Hens return to FCS play when they host James Madison on October 1 Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
