MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- When the Miami Dolphins made a goal-line tackle on the final play to seal their latest victory, quarterback Ryan Tannehill sprinted onto the field, leaped to chest-bump a teammate and then sprawled happily to the turf.Pardon Tannehill if the Dolphins winning streak has left him a little bit giddy. They made it six in a row by beating San Francisco 31-24 Sunday.It is exciting to be where were at, Tannehill said. Obviously you want to be playing meaningful games in December to get yourself playing in January and February, and weve done that.The Dolphins (7-4) are in the thick of the AFC wild-card race and building momentum in pursuit of their first playoff berth in eight years. A victory next Sunday at Baltimore would extend the winning streak to seven games, their longest since 1985.The Dolphins record is their best after 11 games since 2003. Theyve won four consecutive home games in the same season for the first time since 2002.The 49ers (1-10), by contrast, have lost a franchise-record 10 in a row since winning their opener.They all hurt, receiver Jeremy Kerley said. To get that close and come up short, you just think back on all the things you could have done better.Here are some things to know about two teams who continue to head in opposite directions:TANNEHILL TIME: Miami was missing three starters on the offensive line. With the ground game stymied, Tannehill beat the 49ers through the air.He went 20 for 30 for 285 yards and three touchdowns, ran for 34 yards and committed no turnovers. His quarterback rating of 130.6 matched the second-highest of his career.We find a way to win, Tannehill said. Thats the kind of team you want to have.During the winning streak, Tannehill has completed 68 percent of his passes with nine touchdown passes and one interception for a quarterback rating of 104.7.TURNOVERS: San Francisco lost a fumble at the Miami 16, and had a deflected pass intercepted to give the Dolphins the ball at the 49ers 26.When you lose the turnover battle, youre not going to win, San Francisco coach Chip Kelly said. We had two critical turnovers.Miamis Kiko Alonso came away with the ball both times. Hes the first Dolphins linebacker since at least 1993 to recover a fumble and intercept a pass in the same game.Alonzo -- the recipient of Tannehills postgame chest bump -- also led Miami with 12 tackles, and sandwiched Colin Kaepernick at the 2-yard line on the final play.People are going to say I had a big day, Alonso said. I just happened to be in the right place at the right time.INJURIES: Miami WR DeVante Parker (lower back) left late in the third quarter but said afterward he was fine. Niners LB Shayne Skov (knee) and WR Quinton Patton (concussion) left with injuries, as did Miami DE Mario Williams (illness) and CB Lafayette Pitts (back).RARE ACHIEVEMENT: Adam Gase became only the third Miami coach to win six consecutive games, joining Don Shula and Nick Saban. Shula did it 11 times.Now weve got to reload, Gase said.UP NEXT: The Dolphins on Sunday visit the Baltimore Ravens (6-5), who are tied for the AFC North lead. The 49ers visit the Chicago Bears (2-9) on Sunday after spending the week practicing in Orlando, Florida.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL.---Follow Steven Wine on Twitter: http://twitter.com/Steve-Wine.

But when it comes to determining if Raymond will find a place on the Leafs roster when training camp concludes in a week, well, that decision will ultimately fall to the head coach. http://www.cheapbalenciagaaustralia.com/ . - Oakland Raiders running back Rashad Jennings was speaking to a group of local high school students earlier this week when the conversation turned to the importance of being prepared when opportunities in life arise.

Cheap Authentic Balenciaga Shoes . Numbers Game looks into the Canadiens securing the services of Thomas Vanek in a trade with the New York Islanders. The Canadiens Get: LW Thomas Vanek and a conditional fifth-round pick. Turns out Benji Marshall wasnt the only one to be called out in Wollongong last week, with Tariq Sims also copping a serve from St George Illawarra coach Paul McGregor.However, both players responded positively to their dressing down with leading performances in the Dragons 32-18 boilover of Cronulla on Saturday night to earn some praise from their coach.While Marshall and McGregor made plenty of headlines for what the Dragons No.7 described as a healthy debate during a video review last week, Sims revealed he too had been ordered to lift his game.And the former Newcastle forward responded with a heroic two-try effort, while also setting up a third.Mary, (McGregor) hes great at challenging individuals and he challenged me through the week. Id like to think that I responded the way that he wanted me to, Sims said.McGregor said it was exactly the reply he was looking for from his bench forward.As soon as he came on, he made immediate impact. Thats what you want from a player of his capabilities coming off the interchange, McGregor said.Sims best performance in the Red V was soured by an ankle injury that will require scans.Unfortunately got a strain in the ankle there late in the game. Not too sure how bad that is but well get it checked and hopefully it wont keep him out for many games, McGregor said.McGregor also lauded the bounce-back from Marshall, who put a disapppointing outing against Brisbane behind him by setting up two tries in an improved display against the Sharks.ddddddddddddThats how you want your playmakers to be. You want them to build pressure and then when the opportunity presents itself, create tries, McGregor said.To come off a game like he did last week, and the pressure hes been under from all sorts of different areas, to come out and play like that, is really good. Itll give him confidence going into next week.The win temporarily leaves the 11th-placed Dragons just two points shy of eighth-placed Penrith ahead of the Panthers match against Newcastle on Sunday.McGregor admitted his team would need to win their final three games of the regular season but, with Leeson Ah Mau to return from suspension next week, refused to give up hope of a late finals push.Their remaining three games are against the lowly Sydney Roosters, Parramatta and Newcastle.We had three back tonight that we missed last week in (Tyson) Frizell, (Joel) Thompson and (Josh) Dugan, they all got through well, he said.Were getting some troops back and were playing all sides below us in the competition so its certainly in our hands. Weve got to keep getting a bit better each week like we did tonight. You never know. ' ' '
