LB Russell Allen – Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Houston Texans
In an offensive showdown that saw nearly 1,100 yards of total offense, the Jaguars lost to the Texans in overtime, 43-37. Allen was all over the field on defense, recording 15 total tackles. He now ranks fifth in the league with 67 solo tackles and is tied for eighth with 85 total tackles.

LB Antwan Applewhite – Carolina Panthers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Panthers fell to the Buccaneers, 27-21. Applewhite was inactive for the fourth straight week after suffering a hamstring injury in Week 7. His status for Week 12 is uncertain.

LS Aaron Brewer – Denver Broncos vs. San Diego Chargers
The Broncos continued their strong play and won their fifth straight game as they defeated the Chargers, 30-23. Brewer remained solid with his snapping duties, helping the special teams unit make three field goals and punt five times for an average of 50.4 yards per punt.

WR Vincent Brown – San Diego Chargers vs. Denver Broncos
Brown remains out with an ankle injury suffered in the preseason. It was reported last week that he was running once again and is making progress, but there is no clear timetable on his return.

LB Miles Burris – Oakland Raiders vs. New Orleans Saints
Without star running back Darren McFadden for the second straight week, the injury-depleted Raiders could not handle the high-powered offense of the Saints, and lost 38-17. Burris, however, had an impressive outing on the defensive side of the ball with eight total tackles.

OT/OG Brandyn Dombrowski – San Diego Chargers vs. Denver Broncos
Dombrowski returned to practice two weeks ago after sitting out with a foot injury, but it is still uncertain if he will see any game action this season.

RB Ronnie Hillman – Denver Broncos vs. San Diego Chargers
After an injury to starting running back Willis McGahee, Hillman came in and helped the Broncos take down the struggling Chargers. He had 12 carries for 43 yards and two catches for 16 yards. He will likely start at running back next week, as McGahee is expected to be out 6-8 weeks.

QB Ryan Lindley – Arizona Cardinals vs. Atlanta Falcons
After a shaky start by John Skelton, Cardinals’ head coach Ken Whisenhunt gave Lindley a chance to take over under center. Lindley, who had to battle back from a questionable fumble call that resulted in a Falcons touchdown, was 9-20 for 64 yards in his first-ever NFL action. In a game that went down to the final minutes, the Cardinals lost to the Falcons, 23-19. It has not yet been decided who will start at quarterback next week, but it seems likely that Lindley is now the guy in Arizona.

OG Lance Louis – Chicago Bears vs. San Francisco 49ers
In the battle of backup quarterbacks, Jason Campbell and the Bears lost to Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers on Monday night, 32-7. Louis and his offensive lineman had their hands full with the 49ers’ pass rushers, and the Bears’ record dropped to 7-3.

LB Kirk Morrison – Buffalo Bills vs. Miami Dolphins
The Bills defeated the Dolphins, 19-14, but Morrison was inactive once again. He has yet to see any game action this season.

WR Kassim Osgood – Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers
In a heated division battle, the Lions fell to the Packers, 24-20. Osgood continues to play on special teams but did not record any tackles in the game.

WR Chaz Schilens – New York Jets vs. St. Louis Rams
The Jets beat the Rams on Sunday, 27-13, and Schilens had a solid game. He hauled in four catches for 48 yards and one touchdown. It was his second touchdown of the season and ninth of his career.

LB Russell Allen – Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Indianapolis Colts
In the Thursday night game, the Jaguars fell to the Colts, 27-10. Allen had six tackles in the game, and is now tied for fourth in the NFL with 56 solo tackles this season.

LB Antwan Applewhite – Carolina Panthers vs. Denver Broncos
The Panthers struggled against the surging Broncos on Sunday, and lost 36-14. Applewhite was inactive for the third straight week after suffering a hamstring injury in Week 7. His status for Week 11 is uncertain.

LS Aaron Brewer – Denver Broncos vs. Carolina Panthers
The Broncos handled the Panthers on Sunday, winning their fourth straight game. Brewer did not record any tackles, as he did in his previous two games, but he continued to snap well on punts and field goals.

WR Vincent Brown – San Diego Chargers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
To add another blunder to their roller coaster of a season, the Chargers fell to the Buccaneers, 34-24. Brown remains out with an ankle injury suffered in the preseason, and is expected to return some time in December.

LB Miles Burris – Oakland Raiders vs. Baltimore Ravens
The Raiders had a tough time stopping the Ravens, and lost 55-20. Burris, who continues to start at weakside linebacker for the Raiders, recorded five total tackles in the game.

OT/OG Brandyn Dombrowski – San Diego Chargers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Dombrowski returned to practice last week, but it is uncertain if he will see any game action this season. According to a post on ESPN, the Chargers have three weeks to either activate him or place him on injured reserve.

LB Heath Farwell – Seattle Seahawks vs. New York Jets
Behind a strong rushing performance by Marshawn Lynch, the Seahawks defeated the Jets, 28-7. Farwell recorded another tackle on special teams in the game, giving him a total of 11 this season.

RB Ronnie Hillman – Denver Broncos vs. Carolina Panthers
Although he had just seven yards from scrimmage in the game, Hillman scored his first NFL touchdown on Sunday in the Broncos’ big win over the Panthers. He scored on a 5-yard run late in the fourth quarter.

QB Ryan Lindley – Arizona Cardinals, BYE

OG Lance Louis – Chicago Bears vs. Houston Texans
The Bears had their six-game winning snapped on Sunday after they lost to the Texans, 13-6. Louis and his fellow offensive lineman performed well in pass protection, not giving up any sacks in the game. It wasn’t enough for the Bears, however, and their record fell to 8-2.

LB Kirk Morrison – Buffalo Bills vs. New England Patriots
The Bills played the Patriots close all game, but eventually lost, 37-31. Morrison remained inactive for the game, and has yet to see any action this season.

WR Kassim Osgood – Detroit Lions vs. Minnesota Vikings
The Lions had no answer for Adrian Peterson and his 171 yards rushing on Sunday, as they lost to the Vikings, 34-24. Osgood saw action on special teams, but did not record any tackles in the game.

WR Chaz Schilens – New York Jets vs. Seattle Seahawks
Schilens did not have any catches in the Jets’ loss to the Seahawks. Although he was held without a catch in the game, he has 16 receptions for 150 yards and one touchdown this season.

Aztecs in the NFL: Week 9

/ Hunter O. Hewitt / 1 Comment

LB Russell Allen – Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Detroit Lions
The Jaguars’ struggles continued as they fell to the Lions, 31-14. Allen recorded six tackles in the loss, all solo stops, and he is currently tied for seventh in the league with 50 solo tackles this season. Allen also reached a career milestone on Sunday, as he recorded his 200th total tackle.

LB Antwan Applewhite – Carolina Panthers vs. Washington Redskins
Applewhite was inactive in Week 9 after suffering a leg injury in Week 7. In a battle of young, mobile quarterbacks, the Panthers beat the Redskins, 21-13, and Cam Newton got the upper hand on Robert Griffin III. Applewhite’s status for Week 10 is uncertain.

LS Aaron Brewer – Denver Broncos vs. Cincinnati Bengals
The Broncos continued their solid play as they defeated the Bengals, 31-23, and secured their third straight victory. Brewer snapped well on punts and field goals, and recorded his second tackle of the season while covering a punt. He has now recorded one tackle in each of the last two games.

WR Vincent Brown – San Diego Chargers vs. Kansas City Chiefs
The Chargers dominated the Chiefs on Thursday, 31-13. Brown remains out with an ankle injury suffered in the preseason, and his recovery has taken longer than expected. According to an article by CBS Sports, Brown is likely out until December.

LB Miles Burris – Oakland Raiders vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Burris and the Raiders fell to the Buccaneers on Sunday, 42-32. Burris had six total tackles in the loss, giving him 38 so far this season.

OT/OG Brandyn Dombrowski – San Diego Chargers vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Dombrowski remains out with a foot injury, and his return this season is unlikely. It was recently reported by CBS Sports that he is recovering from a cyst on his foot, and his chances of playing this season are slim.

LB Heath Farwell – Seattle Seahawks vs. Minnesota Vikings
Behind emerging rookie quarterback Russell Wilson, the Seahawks came away with the win over the Vikings, 30-20. Farwell recorded one tackle on special teams, bringing his season total to 10.

RB Ronnie Hillman – Denver Broncos vs. Cincinnati Bengals
Although Hillman was unable to repeat his breakout performance in Week 8, the Broncos still handled the Bengals. He saw limited touches in the game, as he had one carry for 4 yards and one reception for 5 yards.

QB Ryan Lindley – Arizona Cardinals vs. Green Bay Packers
The Cardinals lost to the Packers on Sunday, 31-17. Lindley remains the backup quarterback behind John Skelton, and still has to take any snaps this season.

OG Lance Louis – Chicago Bears vs. Tennessee Titans
The Bears are quickly making a name for themselves throughout the league after an overwhelming victory over the Titans, 51-20. Louis continued to block well for the Bears, and their record improved to 7-1, tied for second-best in the NFL.

LB Kirk Morrison – Buffalo Bills vs. Houston Texans
The Bills’ defense couldn’t stop Arian Foster and Andre Johnson on Sunday, and fell to the Texans, 21-9. Morrison was inactive for the game, and has yet to see any action this season for unknown reasons.

WR Kassim Osgood – Detroit Lions vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
Osgood was unable to record any tackles on special teams, but the Lions were able to win their second straight game and improve their record to 4-4.
