- [Broncos vs 49ers] SFIllustrated.com Live Game Blog - ...6:12: Some nice play by some young defenders to stop a Denver drive. On third-and-3 from the Denver 24, Jay Moore strings out a run to his side and comes up to meet halfback Mike Bell, who is finished off Marcus Hudson and Sammy Joseph a yard short of the first down...
...5:47: San Francisco’s second defense is in the game now, and rookie linebacker Jay Moore blows the coverage in the flat on the scoring play. Moore also got held up at the line a few plays earlier, allowing Mike Bell to turn the corner for a 13-yard gain...
- [Ravens vs Eagles] Late in the first-half Kyle Boller sent a sideline pass to Cory Ross for nine yards and a first down, followed by a 20-yard scramble that put the ball on the Eagles' 45 just past the two-minute warning.
- Rookie QB Troy Smith came out and led two drives that totaled 16 yards and two punts, but he rebounded with the help of stout running back Cory Ross, who broke off a 24-yard rush to jump-start a scoring drive (in the 3rd Quarter). (BaltimoreRavens.com)
- Cory Ross led Baltimore with 65 rushing yards on 11 carries, including a 24-yard run. (CarrollCountyTimes.com)
- I think (Eagles LB) Stewart Bradley did some good things out there. KLKatz from Eagles Chronicles said it best, Bradley has a "nose for the ball." He didn't get caught out of position and he's a very sure tackler. (Blog- BleedingGreenNation.com)
- Bradley led the Eagles defenders with 7 tackles (5 solo); a couple of those tackles came at Cory Ross' expense.
- [Packers vs Steelers] Overall the positives outweighed the negatives. I really like the way RB Brandon Jackson runs. He's quick to the line, makes one cut and goes. His stats aren't great, but the offensive line wasn't creating a lot of running lanes. (Blog- AcmePackingCompany.com)

- [Patriots vs Bucs] LeKevin Smith's forced fumble was the game's only turnover. (Projo.com)
- [Rams vs Vikings] Trevor Johnson's (Rams DE) great individual effort held Minnesota's first scoring drive to a FG in the 2nd. On 3rd down from the Ram 12, Johnson drove the tackle into the pocket, flushed Jackson, then shed his blocker to come back and get him for the sack. (RamView.com)
- The Ram attack was very creative, blitzing DBs, blitzing safeties, using the zone blitz that completely fooled Brooks Bollinger into throwing a pass in the 3rd that Trevor Johnson should have intercepted. (RamView.com)
- Adam Carriker will likely be the lead story of every Rams account of this game, and deservedly so. He stuffed Adrian Peterson a couple of times, brushing Matt Birk aside to stop Peterson for a loss the first time and penetrating the line deftly to make the second stop. Carriker did no worse than to hold his ground all night. If he can maintain this level of play, the Rams will get everything they want out of him. Have they finally gotten a first-round DT pick right? (RamView.com)
- [Saints vs Buffalo] Saints linebacker Scott Shanle blocked a Craig Nall pass intended for Jonathan Smith. (TheTownTalk.com)
- [Dolphins vs Browns] Head coach Cam Cameron showed that he's got a bit of gambler in him. In the first-quarter the Dolphins went for and converted a fourth-and-1 at Miami's 31-yard line when fullback Cory Schlesinger bowled over Jacksonville's defensive line for two-yards. (TCPalm.com)
