Delanie Walker makes insane touchdown grab

Delanie Walker made an insane touchdown grab against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday to put the Tennessee Titans within four points in the first quarter.

The New Orleans Saints were riding high off of some great football coming into Sunday’s game against the Tennessee Titans. A home crowd was sure to boost them to big plays and a win, but not if Titans’ receiver Delanie Walker had anything to say about it.

Marcus Mariota launched up a prayer, and it almost went terribly for him. The throw wasn’t great, as it was targeted toward two Saints defenders, Jairus Byrd and Keenan Lewis, who were all over the ball. However, a miscommunication had them collide, thus launching the ball up in the air.

Walker was in the right place at the right time, and was able to grab the deflected ball and run it in for a Titans touchdown. The Saints looked dominant for most of the first quarter, but the miraculous touchdown shifted momentum a bit and put the Titans right back in the game, making the score 14-10.

This only adds to the Saints’ defensive woes. After a great season in Rob Ryan’s first year as defensive coordinator, the defense has been mediocre at best the past few seasons. Now, Saints fans are questioning the leadership, and the possibility of Ryan and head coach Sean Payton being moved could could be a reality.

Mariota is seeking to add to his resume Sunday by beating veteran quarterback Brees who is having a big year.
