Two weeks into the season, the New Orleans Saints don't appear to be the NFL's most dominant team. But the Saints are one of eight that remain unbeaten. And until a team finds a way to knock off the defending Super Bowl champions, something the San Francisco 49ers couldn't do on Monday Night Football at Candlestick Park, the Saints...

In the fourth quarter, Faulk got the ball from Brady on a first-down play and ran wide left, toward the Jets sideline.

Though Johnson's contributions in the Redskins' first two games - five carries for two yards in limited playing time - were negligible, Johnson's agent said the Redskins told him that the move was made because the Redskins needed a player for the St. Louis game who could contribute on special teams. Johnson and Portis play only on offense, and two sources familiar with the"
