Steven Hauschka added five converts and three field goals

PITTSBURGH -- Mike Wallaces corner locker at the Steelers facility sat quietly, as neat as it has throughout training camp. coach handbags outlet . Shoes were lined up methodically along the bottom, jerseys and other clothing hung on a rod, a cap sat on the top shelf and the team helmet hung on its customary hook. Many of Mike Wallaces belongings. Just no Mike Wallace. Despite reports and heavy speculation the holdout receiver would report to the Steelers (No. 7 in AP Pro32) on Monday, Wallace was not there. High school teammate and Steelers cornerback Keenan Lewis said Wallace would arrive Tuesday, however. So, the drama continues to build. Officially, Wallace, coach Mike Tomlin and the organization arent talking, but teammates openly discussed the pending arrival. Rookie guard David DeCastro was at the facility, took part in meetings and hung with teammates. But the Steelers first-round pick was in crutches after sustaining a potentially severe knee injury during Saturdays preseason game. He will undergo surgery Wednesday. Pittsburgh concludes the preseason by hosting Carolina Thursday. Lewis and cornerback Ike Taylor are arguably Wallaces closest friends on the team, and the two have openly embraced playfully acting as conduits for speculation concerning Wallaces status and whereabouts. After a media member requested Lewis call Wallace on Monday, Lewis and Taylor passed Lewis cellphone back and forth during a conversation. Taylor played coy. "Just to have him back, whenever he comes, its going to be a plus," Taylor said. "We miss him, we miss the attitude, we miss the way he clowns, we just miss Mike in general. So, when he gets back, were going to embrace him." Wallace had 2,450 receiving yards and 18 touchdowns the past two seasons. A restricted free agent, he would need to sign a one-year tender of approximately $2.7 million to report to the team. The Steelers suspended negotiations with Wallace on a long-term contract when he was a no-show on the first day of training camp. The organization also has a policy of not conducting contract negotiations during the regular season, meaning the clock is ticking if Wallace wants a long-term deal -- though he could be content to test the open market as an unrestricted free agent after this season. With Wallace not around, the Steelers gave an extension to their other starting receiver, Antonio Brown, on the third day of training camp. "Im excited for my guy to come in," Brown said, "get back on the same page and get working together toward something thats special." Wallace has averaged 18.7 yards per reception in his career and has had a touchdown reception of at least 56 yards each season he has played. "He adds another dimension to the field," Brown said. "A player like Mike is so explosive and gets so many things done. You need a guy like that on your team. Its amazing when you can get him lined up on the other side and you know what he is capable of. Its a great thing to have him here." At least it will be at some point. No matter when Wallace reports this week, he cannot participate in a team practice until next week, as per the leagues collective bargaining agreement. DeCastro, meanwhile, did not practice Monday, but did say he was in good spirits as he left the team facility in a knee brace. Two days after classifying DeCastros injury as "potentially severe," Tomlin would not elaborate other than to say the team would update his status after the surgery Wednesday. "The guy is injured, so you feel sorry for him on a personal level," Tomlin said. "Professionally, we understand that this is as much a part of the game as blocking and tackling. So, we move on." Like all NFL teams, the Steelers were required to trim their roster to 75 on Monday. They will cut it down to the regular-season limit of 53 on Friday. A decision on the severity of DeCastros injury -- and how it affects the roster -- must be made within 48 hours of the surgery. Ramon Foster, in the interim, moves into DeCastros starting spot at right guard. Foster has 26 starts at guard. "Its unfortunate that David got injured, but Im the next man up," Foster said. "Its one of those things Ive grown used to doing, and its just time for the next man up to do the best job he can." ---- NOTES: Players cut by the Steelers Monday were DBs Myron Rolle, Andre Freeman, and Walter McFadden; LBs Ryan Baker and Mortty Ivy; DTs Mike Blanc and Kade Weston; WRs Paul Cox, Juamorris Stewart and Jimmy Young; K Daniel Hrapmann; OL Kyle Jolly; LS Matt Katula and TEs Jamie McCoy and Justin Peelle.

The rookie quarterback rushed for three TDs and threw for another as Seattle steamrolled past the Buffalo Bills 50-17 on Sunday afternoon. It marked the second straight week the Seahawks had scored 50 or more points, making them just the third NFL team ever accomplish the feat and first since 1950. "Were definitely clicking well," Wilson said. "Guys are just playing great football, thats what it really comes down to, guys making awesome plays and just making the consistent plays. "You have to be consistent in this game and were actually doing that right now." Wilson, a 2012 third-round pick, thrilled the Rogers Centre gathering of 40,770 by becoming the first player in NFL history to register three rushing TDs and one passing in a half in staking Seattle to a 31-17 lead. He guided the Seahawks (9-5), who wore new wolf grey jerseys, to their fifth win in six games and assured the club of its first winning season since it went 10-6 in 2007. Last week, Seattle defeated Arizona 58-0. Wilson finished 14-of-23 passing for 205 yards and added 92 yards on nine carries. The Seahawks defence also got in the act, forcing three turnovers (two interceptions, one fumble) as Earl Thomas returned a pick 57 yards for a touchdown. Seahawks coach Pete Carroll couldnt praise his rookie quarterback enough. "You can see now were really playing offence with Russell," Carroll said. "For a long time we were just trying to get our offence going and not screw it up and make sure he could keep growing and taking positive steps. "Well, were past that now. We know whatever were calling, something good can happen. Hes got it nailed. Im thrilled about what hes going, more than surprised." Both Carroll and Wilson said playing in Toronto was a very positive experience. "It was cool to hear the (Canadian) anthem," said Carroll. "We tried to make the most of it and enjoy the heck out of it and fortunately we had a real cool win, too." Added Wilson: "It was pretty cool to play in Toronto, especially for me, it was pretty awesome. All the 12th men, the fans, the Canadian fans there were so many of them here today and thats pretty cool." But Rogers Centre continues to be a black hole for Buffalo (5-9), which fell to 1-4 in regular-season games here since the inception of the Bills Toronto Series in 2008. And it couldve been a lot worse as Seattles Leon Washington had an 86-yard punt return TD late in the third nullified by an illegal block before the replay confirmed Sidney Rice didnt get both feet down on a five-yard touchdown catch in the fourth. To add insult to injury, Buffalo was officially eliminated from playoff contention, extending their league-high post-season drought to 13 years. "We played bad, we played poorly," said Bills head coach Chad Gailey, already on the hotseat in Buffalo before Sundays lopsided loss. "If you play poorly against a good football team youre going to look extremely bad. "We played poorly and we looked extremely bad. We did." Marshawn Lynch contributed to Buffalos woes, rushing for 113 yards and a TD in his first game against his former team since the Bills dealt their 2007 first-round selection to Seattle in 2010. But it was Wilson who provided the early fireworks before a Toronto gathering that sported a myriad of NFL team jerseys, including plenty wearing Seahawks colours. The five-foot Wilson became the first quarterback to register three first-half rushing TDs since September 2000 when Minnesotas Daunte Culpepper did so versus the Chicago Bearrs. coach outlet online. Buffalo quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick was 21-of-38 passing for 217 yards with two interceptions and a lost fumble. Stevie Johnson had eight catches for 115 yards and a TD while C.J. Spiller added 103 yards rushing with a touchdown. Fitzpatrick feels badly for the heat Gailey is taking. "I obviously do not feel great about the way we played but especially for a guy that has given so many guys in the lockerroom opportunities. "We played poorly and it reflects poorly on him. It just eats me up. I know it eats other guys up as well." None of the seven Bills Toronto Series games under the original five-year deal have been a sellout at Rogers Centre, which has a seating capacity of 54,000 for football. Last month, 53,028 fans watched the Toronto Argonauts beat the Calgary Stampeders in the 100th Grey Cup game here. But the Bills will continue playing games here as theres talk a new five-year agreement will be announced once Buffalo finalizes a new lease agreement at Ralph Wilson Stadium to replace the current one which expires at seasons end. Seattle maintained its hold on an NFC wildcard spot but remains in contention for the NFC West lead. If the San Francisco 49ers lose Sunday night to the New England Patriots, the NFC West foes will meet for the divisional lead next week at CenturyLink Field. Zach Miller also had a TD for Seattle. Steven Hauschka added five converts and three field goals. Buffalos Rian Lindell booted two converts and a field goal. The Bills Toronto Series was unveiled in 2008 amid much fanfare as event organizers wanted to prove Toronto was a viable NFL city. Rogers Communications Inc. paid US$78 million for the contests expecting southern Ontario fans to flock to Rogers Centre whatever the cost. But a slow economy, high-priced tickets -- initially averaging over $180 each, compared to roughly US$51 at Ralph Wilson Stadium -- and struggling Bills teams have made it a tough sell. Event organizers have cut some ticket prices to make games more affordable, but thats not resulted in a sellout yet. The average ticket price for Sundays game was roughly $99. Scalpers also had to work hard for their money, with many Sunday willing to unload their tickets under face value to make a sale. The series has given the Bills a huge financial boost. Theyre receiving more than double what theyd make if the games were in Orchard Park. N.Y., while being allowed to establish a foothold in Canadas biggest market. Still, event organizers have struggled trying to recreate the NFL experience here. A huge attraction for many American football fans is being able to arrive at the stadium hours before kickoff, set up the barbecue to cook a variety of foods while throwing a football around in the parking lot or breaking down the upcoming game with friends over a cold beer. But provincial laws make that impossible here. And then there was the security as fans were searched and their bags checked before entering the stadium. The roof was closed, good considering the cold, wet temperatures outside. There were no corporate logos on the turf -- just the Bills crest at centre field and their team name in both end zones. What especially stood out were the 10-yard end zones on a 100-yard long NFL field compared to the 20-yard end zones and the 110-yard field in Canadian football. So too was the Jumbotron running during plays, allowing fans to watch the on-field action. That never happens during Toronto Argonauts contests. As has been the case throughout the series, large banners covered the hotel windows overlooking the field, preventing hotel guests from watching like they could during CFL games. ' ' '
