Arizona Cardinals (Rashad Johnson, Ed Stinson-inactive) lost to the Seattle Seahawks (Jess Williams-IR, James Carpenter-inactive, Kevin Norwood) 3-19. Johnson had 6 tackles and 3 assists and Stinson had 1 tackle and 1 assist. Norwood had 1 catch for 10 yards. Atlanta Falcons (Javier Arenas, Mike Johnson-IR, Julio Jones) lost to the Cleveland Browns 24-26. Jones had 5 catches for 68 yards. Arenas was active for the first time this year. Cincinnati Bengals (Wallace Gilberrry, Dre Kirkpatrick, Nico Johnson, AJ McCarron-inactive, Andre Smith) beat the Houston Texans (Kareem Jackson-inactive, Jeoffrey Pagan) 22-13. Gilberry had 2 assists and Johnson had 1 assist. Andre Smith may have suffered a season ending arm injury. McCarron was practicing with the team but was not active for the game, and the Bengals have five weeks to decide to keep him or not, or place on IR. McCarron is the last QB hope we have for an all-Tide NFL fantasy team. We are still lacking a Tide TE in the league though (where are you Howard Cross?). Pagan had 1 assist for the Texans. Dallas Cowboys (Rolando McClain) beat the New York Giants 31-28. McClain had a great game with 10 tackles and 1 assist, including the game sealing tackle stopping the Giants on a 4th down late in the game. Green Bay Packers (Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Eddie Lacy) beat the Minnesota Vikings 24-21. Clinton-Dix had 7 tackles, 2 assists, and 1 pass defended but the story was Lacy who had 25 carries for 125 yards and 1 TD to go along with 2 catches for 13 yards and another TD. Lacy did this while battling an illness, and it was his late game runs that ground out the win. Indianapolis Colts (Josh Chapman, Trent Richardson) beat the Jacksonville Jaguars (Carson Tinker) 23-3. Richardson was also ill but still managed 13 carries for 42 yards and 1 TD. New England Patriots (Dont’a Hightower) led by 2xSB losing QB T. Brady beat the Detroit Lions 34-9. Hightower was solid with 5 tackles and 3 assists. Philadelphia Eagles (DeMeco Ryans-IR, Evan Mathis) beat the Tennessee Titans (Chance Warmack) 43-24. San Diego Chargers (Damion Square-inactive, Jarret Johnson, DJ Fluker) beat the Saint Louis Rams (Mark Barron, Barrett Jones-inactive) 27-24. Johnson had 3 tackles for the Chargers, while Barron recorded only 1 tackle for the Rams. San Francisco 49ers (Quinton Dial) beat the Washington Redskins 17-13.

On Monday night there were two games. The Baltimore Ravens (Terrance Cody-inactive, CJ Mosley, Courtney Upshaw) beat the New Orleans Saints (Vinnie Sunseri-IR, Mark Ingram) 34-27. Mosley had 9 tackles and Upshaw had 2 tackles. Sunseri was placed on IR recently. Ingram had only 11 carries for 27 yards with 2 receptions for 15 yards and a fumble. Buffalo Bills (Marcel Dareus, Cyrus Kouandjio-inactive) crushed the New York Jets (Dee Milliner-IR) 38-3. Dareus had 1 tackle.

$cam Led Carolina Panthers (Roman Harper, Robert Lester) - BYE

Injuries are piling up as it looks like two more Tide alum are now on the IR.

Yep - my typo. 9 tackles and 1 sack for Mosley. That's 99 tackles, 1 sack, and 2 INTs for the year. For a rookie. On a team w/ Dumervil, Suggs, and a Ray Lewis standard of performance. Mosley can possibly be the prototype linebacker for this pass-happy era.

So here's the deal:

CJ Mosley, Rolando McClain, Dont'a Hightower, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Rashad Johnson: all led their respective teams in tackles this week.

just to add. Andre Smith indeed had an injury and will miss the rest of the season. and also let me add since i try to watch each and every NFL game that McClain is an absolute monster at LB for the Cowboys. Its amazing considering how much time he's been off the field.

He's got more than one sack. I've watched him record several. He's also second or third among LBs in pass break-ups.
