Sunday morning one-liners

Bills WR Josh Reed has been ruled out of Sunday’s game with an ankle injury.

Said Dolphins rookie CB Vontae Davis, “In college, the balls would be where you could make plays on them, but
being a cornerback in this league you have to have the mentality of a
sniper. It’s just one shot.”

Unsurprisingly, Tom Brady is the quarterback on the Providence Journal‘s Patriots team of the decade.

Jets LB Bart Scott sounds like a man who doesn’t think a top ranking equals a great defense.

Ravens RB Ray Rice will try to duplicate his strong performance in the season’s first game against the Steelers.

The amount of work Bengals RB Larry Johnson gets against his old team will be dictated by the score.

The Browns promoted LB Titus Brown from the practice squad and cut OL Scott Kooistra.

Chuck Finder of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette profiles the rise of Steelers rookie WR Mike Wallace.

Texans WR Andre Johnson will be playing the Dolphins within walking distance of his childhood home.

Colts WR Austin Collie is one touchdown catch shy of tying the franchise’s rookie record.

There’s a lot at stake for Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio and QB David Garrard in the next two weeks.

Finishing .500 and helping RB Chris Johnson to 2,000 yards are the remaining goals for the Titans.

Broncos LB Mario Haggan’s statistics don’t illustrate his importance to the defense.

The Chiefs placed S DaJuan Morgan and LB Justin Rogers on injured reserve and promoted DT Derek Lokey and S Ricky Price from the practice squad.

Bad weather and a big game last week could make RB Michael Bush the focal point of the Raiders offense on Sunday.

Chargers C Nick Hardwick felt fine after returning to the lineup on Christmas night against the Titans.

Cowboys LB Anthony Spencer is starting to quiet the critics who assailed him earlier this season.

Sunday will bring the final Giants game at Giants Stadium.

While the players around him have come in and out of the lineup, Eagles C Jamaal Jackson has remained a constant on the offensive line.

After spending the year on injured reserve, QB Colt Brennan doesn’t know what kind of future he has with the Redskins.

Neil Hayes of the Chicago Sun-Times thinks the Bears need to help QB Jay Cutler improve.

The Lions will try to avoid their second straight winless season on the road in San Francisco on Sunday.

Packers K Mason Crosby has gotten back to basics in hope of correcting his troubling recent performances.

Vikings QB Brett Favre will face the Bears in cold weather and recent history says that it isn’t a good thing.

The Falcons will need a sharp performance by QB Matt Ryan against the ball-hawking Bills secondary.

Panthers players said that coach John Fox isn’t the reason for the team’s struggles this year.

Former Saints and Bears coach Mike Ditka said that the Saints shouldn’t be too upset about losing their first game of the season.

Buccaneers LB Geno Hayes has made a strong impression in his rookie season.

Said Cardinals S Adrian Wilson, “Last year, [clinching] was new to a lot of people. To at least 80
percent of the locker room it was new to them. This year is different.
We believe we can continue to win games. We have things we need to
improve on, and we’re not looking at these last two games as something
where we can just show up.”

The Rams hope that the experience gained this season will pay off for their young players.

The lack of playoff possibilities doesn’t mean the 49ers have nothing to play for in their final two games.

The Seahawks released DE Derek Walker and promoted WR Mike Haas from the practice squad.
