Congratulations to former USC quarterback and current Arizona Cardinal quarterback, Matt Leinart. Leinart and Brynn Cameron, who is a USC basketball player, had a son yesterday. They are not married and it is unclear whether they are in a relationship. Although I could not get a hold of Paris Hilton for her comments, by looking at Brynn's picture – Matt, you get two thumbs up from us here at DXP.
And finally, I offer my sincerest apologies for being a day late with the ‘N’sider. In fact, I am so sorry that I felt obligated to make it up to our NFL fan base. Unfortunately, this is the best I could come up with:
And now back to our regularly scheduled look at Huskers in the NFL.
Josh Brown (K Seattle Seahawks): Without Shaun Alexander and now without Matt Hasselbeck, the Seahawks appear to be reeling. Brown did his part again with 2 FG’s, but unfortunately it was in a 31-13 loss at home to the Minnesota Vikings.

Mike Brown (S Chicago Bears): In case you missed it, Brown is on the IR and will the remainder of the season after he tore the LisFranc’s ligament in his foot. On the other hand, the Bears are still undefeated and have San Francisco on deck at home.
Ralph Brown (CB Cleveland Browns): Ralph continues to make contributions for his Browns, but was able to record only 1 tackle as his team lost to the Denver Broncos 17-7. Surprisingly, the Broncos have given up only 2 TD’s all year.

Josh Bullocks (S New Orleans Saints): Bullocks, who obviously was also in a bye week, has a great season to date with 33 tackles. However, he still trails his teammate Shanle who has 36 tackles.
Dejuan Groce (CB New Orleans Saints): After being released by the St. Louis Rams before the season, Groce has finally begun to see some playing time the past few games with upstart Saints.
Daniel Bullocks (S Detroit Lions): The nightmarish season continues for the Lions and Bullocks as they dropped to 1-6 after a loss to the New York Jets. Bullocks, however, had a great game with 9 tackles, including 7 solo stops.

Ahman Green (RB Green Bay Packers): In his first game back in weeks, Green racked up 118 yards on 18 carries, including a 70-yard TD run. The Packers got their second win of the season against the struggling Dolphins 34-24.
Mike Rucker (DE Carolina Panthers): Mike was able to record only tackle as his Panthers lost a close one to the Cincinnati Bengals in which QB Jake Delhomme threw a INT in the end zone with just at a minute to play.
Mike Minter (S Carolina Panthers): With 9 tackles and 5 solo tackles, Minter was not to blame for that loss to the Bengals.

Chris Kelsey (DE Buffalo Bills): Kelsey continues to impress with 2-5 Bills as he recorded 5 tackles, 4 of which were solo, and 1 sack. However, the team still lost to the New England Patriots 28-6 and appears to be headed nowhere.
Sam Koch (P Baltimore Ravens): Koch and the Ravens had the week off last week. The Ravens have lost 2 games in a row after starting 4-0 and must travel to New Orleans this week.


Barrett Ruud (LB Tampa Bay Buccaneers): Ruud, who had 2 tackles, and the Bucs got their second win of the season on a dramatic 63 yard field goal as time expired. That field goal was the second longest in NFL history.
Fabian Washington (DB Oakland Raiders): Back from injury, Fabian helped the Raiders win their first game of the season with 1 tackle. The Raiders beat the Arizona Cardinals and Dennis Green 22-9, and I am sure Cardinal fans are waiting for the pink slip.

Grant Wistrom (DE Seattle Seahawks): Wistrom, along with the rest of the Seahawks, decided to take the week off at home against the Minnesota Vikings as they lost 31-13. Grant recorded 2 tackles.
