NFL Brief- Week 6

"On this team, we fight for that inch, On this team we tear ourselves, and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We Claw with our fingernails for that inch, cause we know when we add up all those inches that's going to make the difference between winning and losing, between living and dying"-- Al Pacino

Jim Haslett and Gary Kubiak may have both used this speech to pump up their players this weekend, as the Rams and the Texans both got their first win of the season by getting that inch. The Rams upset the Skins 19-17 behind Josh Brown's last second kick, and in Houston, QB Matt Schaub noticed the dolphins line up with no linebackers on 4th and 2 and scampered in the goal line to help the Texans edge the Fins 29-28.

Elsewhere, Matt Ryan continued his bid for Rookie of the Year with an impressive show of leadership. The Atlanta "Peregrine" Falcons played a stingy Bears defense and emerged victorious over the bears on a last second 48- yard FG by Jason Elam. Down late, Matt Ryan who was 22/30 for 301 and a score, executed the 2-minute drill as a veteran would and drove the falcons down into field goal range to set up the winning kick. The Falcons are 3-0 at home and are tied for the divison lead at 4-2.
