Darrell Jackson is third on the Seahawks with 50 receptions.

PLAYER, STATS	THE SKINNY
Mike Anderson, RB, Broncos at Chiefs 12 att., 62 yds.	Anderson's dream ride through his rookie season hit a bit of a speed bump Sunday in the Broncos' 20-7 loss to the Chiefs. On the Denver's' fourth offensive play of a game, Anderson ripped off a 38-yard run and looked like he had a path to the end zone. However, Chiefs safety Jerome Woods caught up with Anderson, slapped the ball out of his hands, and Pat Dennis recovered for the Chiefs at their 5-yard line. "I felt him. I knew he was coming up on me," Anderson told The Denver Post. "I had the ball in my outside arm and I thought it was protected. But I guess I was swinging the ball out too far. I didn't expect him to go for it. It was kind of a gamble." Anderson still leads all rookies with 1,415 yards rushing.
Shaun Ellis, DE, Jets vs. Lions 9 tackles 2 sacks	In his first career start, the No. 12 pick from Tennessee played well. Ellis recorded nine tackles and two sacks, raising his season sack total to a team-leading 8½. However, he was part of a defense that allowed Lions running back James Stewart to rush for 164 yards.
Danny Farmer , WR, Bengals vs. Jaguars 5 rec., 102 yds.	Drafted and released by the Steelers, Farmer may have found a home in Cincinnati. The former UCLA star had his best NFL game Sunday, helping the Bengals stun the Jaguars, 17-14. Farmer had three catches for 79 yards on the game-tying drive and had another catch that helped set up the game-winning field goal as time expired. "When I wasn't playing and I needed to throw more, Danny would stay after practice," Scott Mitchell said, "just so we got the timing down and stayed sharp in case we got the opportunity to get in there and play."
Darren Howard, DE, Saints vs. Falcons 1 tackle ½ sack	Howard, credited with half a sack Sunday, continues to lead all rookies with 10.5 sacks. He is part of a Saints defense that has 63 sacks this year. Their previous record was 59.
Jamal Lewis , RB, Ravens at Caridnals 29 att., 126 yds. 1 TD	Baltimore's offense struggled against the Cardinals, scoring only 13 points. If it wasn't for Lewis they might not have scored any. Lewis had 131 (126 rushing and 5 receiving) of the Ravens' 214 total yards and scored their only touchdown of the game. For the season, Lewis has 1,312 yards rushing (second among rookies and sixth in the AFC).
Julian Peterson, LB, 49ers vs. Bears 5 tackles 1 sack	The 49ers turned in their best defensive performance of the season, shutting out the Bears 17-0, and Peterson played a large role. "We've played really hard the second half of the season," Peterson, who recorded his fourth sack of the season, told The Sacramento Bee. "I personally know the game a lot better than I did 16 weeks ago."
Hank Poteat, CB, Steelers vs. Redskins 1 TD	A third-round pick (No. 77 overall) out of Pittsburgh, Poteat helped lead the Steelers to a 24-3 victory over the Redskins in the final game at Three Rivers Stadium. Poteat's 53-yard punt return for a touchdown -- the longest punt return by a Steeler for a score in the 31-year history of Three Rivers Stadium, in the last sports event there -- gave the Steelers a 10-3 lead in the second quarter.
Brian Urlacher, LB, Bears at 49ers 9 tackles 1 sack	Urlacher, without a sack since the Minnesota game in Week 7, got the seventh sack of his season in Sunday's 17-0 loss to the 49ers. He was also the only player spared by former Bears great Dick Butkus who sounded off on the team. "It's just embarrassing. I don't understand what's going on there. They look awful," Butkus told the Chicago Sun-Times. He then added, "There's no light at the end of the tunnel. Other than (linebacker Brian) Urlacher. He'll have a good career, a lot of tackles. That's because he'll be out on the field all the time."
Peter Warrick , WR, Bengals vs. Jaguars 3 rec., 38 yds.	Warrick made his mark on Sunday's victory over the Jaguars on special teams not as a receiver. The No. 4 overall pick returned a punt 82 yards to tie the game in the second quarter. It was a spectacular play, zigzagging play that took Warrick from one side of the field to the other. "Sometimes, I watch (film) and say, 'I did that?'" Warrick told the Cincinnati Enquirer. "It's something I've been doing all my life." Warrick returned three punts on the day.
