Sizzle
Mark Sanchez » Had a solid game against Oakland on Sunday — only needing to throw 15 passes. But after getting caught eating a hot dog during the game, he donated 500 hot dogs and 500 hamburgers (and buns and rolls) to a New Jersey soup kitchen.
Michael Beasley » The second-year forward has unseated the Heat’s 5-year starter at power forward, Udonis Haslem. The 6-foot-10 Bowie High product was Miami’s second-leading scorer last season (13.9 points in 24.8 minutes).
Fizzle
JaMarcus Russell » The Raiders QB was the yin to Sanchez’s yang on Sunday. The Raiders keep showing signs of life despite Russell having games like he did against the Jets (QB rating 31.1). Can Raiders’ backup QB Bruce Gradkowski be that bad?
Ilya Kovalchuk » The Atlanta Thrashers forward got off to a hot start (9 goals in 8 games), but it was announced Monday that he suffered a broken foot after getting hit by a puck in Saturday’s game against the Sharks and will miss at least four weeks.
