These rankings are tailored to leagues that award an additional point per reception.For Matthew Berrys rankings of quarterbacks, defenses and kickers, please see Week 10 Staff Rankings. . Three came down to the fourth quarter while quarterbacks continued to shine in all four games; so important to the overall quality of the game. . Nigeria beat surprise package Ethiopia 2-0 in the second leg of their playoff for a comfortable 4-1 aggregate victory. Victor Moses converted a 20th-minute penalty after an Ethiopian handball, and Victor Obinna made certain of Nigerias place in Brazil with his powerful free kick in the 82nd at UJ Esuene Stadium. .C. -- Manny Malhotra had two goals and an assist, leading the Carolina Hurricanes to a 6-3 win over the Ottawa Senators on Saturday. . JOHNS, N. . The defence is doing its part, too. Drew Brees threw a pair of touchdown passes in the first half and the guys on the other side made sure that was enough, sending the Saints to a 17-13 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday night. KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Chiefs will start Nick Foles at quarterback against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, even though they say that usual starter?Alex Smith?has no concussion.Nope, Smith said when asked whether he felt like he has a concussion.?But certainly something happened. Dont know what it was, dont know what you want to call it.Smith has had two concussions in his football career, one in college with Utah and one while playing for the?San Francisco 49ers.Meanwhile, Chiefs running back?Jamaal Charles had exploratory surgery Wednesday on his right knee by Dr. James Andrews as the Chiefs try to determine why there is lingering pain from reconstructive surgery last season.?The four-time Pro Bowler was placed on injured reserve, meaning hell miss at least eight weeks.Coach Andy Reid said Smith is still in what he called the return to play phase of the concussion protocol, even though tests have found that Smith doesnt have a concussion.Its just in the best interests of all that we allow him to go through this, Reid said. Hes got lumps on the back of his ears, a cut ear and all these things. Just let that heal up and [let] everything settle down.?Smith will practice this week but just on the scout team. He wont be active Sunday, and Tyler Bray will be the No. 2 quarterback behind Foles.Everything is positive, Reid said of Smith. I just think its important to just step back here an inch, just take a peek and see how he does this week.Smith lost his starting job to Colin Kaepernick in 2012 when hhe had his concussion with the 49ers.ddddddddddddHe was traded to the Chiefs in 2013.Smith said he and Reid collaborated on the decision not to play against the Jaguars.Ultimately thats coachs decision, Smith said. But certainly he and I have the relationship where I was open and honest with him about everything: how Im feeling, what Im thinking. This was a decision we came to together, certainly.I love playing football. I love my teammates. I love everything about it. The last thing I want to do [and] I think anybody wanted to see was to come back too soon and to see something happen again. Would that have happened? Maybe, maybe not. You just dont know. This is everybody taking the side of caution and trying to make the best decision. Its not black and white.Smith was replaced by Foles twice during Sundays game against the?Indianapolis Colts?after being hit on the head and being wobbly after getting up. But after examining him each time, the Chiefs determined he didnt have a concussion.Foles was 16-of-22 for 223 yards and two touchdowns in the Chiefs 30-14 victory. It was his first game action in the regular season since signing with the Chiefs in August.In addition to Charles, the Chiefs are also likely to be without backup running back?Spencer Ware?for Sundays game, as he has not yet passed the leagues concussion protocol.The Associated Press contributed to this report.
