'We'd all like to have more sacks,' Smith said Thursday. 'Seeing

other people have success getting sacks, I mean that's what I do and that's what we do. So of course it's thumbs up for us.'
The 49ers had 42 sacks in

2011, and the havoc created by their pass rush was a key to the team's
defensive success. Smith burst onto the scene with an impressive rookie

bookend defensive tackles, All-Pro Justin Smith (7 1/2 sacks last year)
and Ray McDonald (5 1/2).
"I apologized for my comments and I expect him to do the

Denver Broncos cornerback Tracy Porter missed practice Thursday
to see a doctor about symptoms he continues to experience following a
seizure he suffered in August.
Porter returned to practice Monday for non-contact work following the Broncos' bye.
'I had four great years with Tracy, going against him in
practice every day,' Brees said. 'You know, he obviously was a big

you did and all of a sudden he's on the other side in a game.'

Pouncey's comments, and added that he never intended to stir things up
with what he said.
'We'll protect our own guy,' defensive tackle Randy Starks
said. 'It's a brotherhood in here, so if something happens, you can
expect some retaliation.'
The Giants (5-2) have won three straight and four of the five
games the starting line has consisted of Will Beatty and Chris Snee at
guards, Kevin Boothe and Sean Locklear at tackles and David Baas at
center. The moves were made when Diehl, the 10-year vet and a staple on
both Giants' Super Bowl championship teams, went down with a sprained
right knee.
Beatty is feeling more comfortable with his linemates.
