He has shaken his head in amazement at his versatility. When he wasn't playing against him, Brown took delight in watching the Chargers' great running back stop, start, cut and dart, appearing at times to knife through the defense.

It's a lovetohate thing when Liverpool and Manchester United go headtohead.

Colts RB Joseph Addai, coming off a bye, will take on the St. Louis Rams in Week 7. Addai has scored a touchdown in three of five games this season but has just one game with over 50 yards rushing.
