NFL and NCAA Football Update… - Words flying as Browns prep for Bengals (AP)

Thursday, September 14th, 2006


Kellen Winslow hasn’t lost any quickness. On Wednesday, he beat Chad Johnson to the punch. Before Cincinnati’s talkative, touchdown-making, free-spirited wide receiver had a chance to make any bold predictions for Sunday’s game between the Bengals and Cleveland Browns, Winslow offered his own guarantee.

Smith, the first draft pick of coach Mike Nolan’s tenure, had a huge contract and a spotlight, but few talented…

Redskins miss injured CB Springs (AP)
Carlos Rogers strutted and did a little dance, an odd bit of celebration considering he had just been beaten by a receiver. As it turned out, the receiver, Troy Williamson, let the ball go through his hands, denying the Minnesota Vikings a sure touchdown. Rogers, trailing the play by a step or two, behaved as if he’d made an interception that won the game.

Branch complicates Seahawks’ game plan (AP)
Seahawks players were in the locker room after Wednesday’s practice, joking and showering. Coaches were in their break room, preparing for meetings. Deion Branch?

Here’s the best example yet of Terrell Owens living up to his vow of being “a better teammate” now that he’s on the Dallas Cowboys: He’s refusing to share his opinion about a brewing quarterback controversy between Drew Bledsoe and Tony Romo.

Nick Saban is no fan of statistics. The Miami coach knows Daunte Culpepper’s 18-of-37, 262-yard, two-interception debut in a 28-17 loss to Pittsburgh last Thursday wasn’t ideal. The same goes for Ronnie Brown’s 30 yards on 15 carries, although Brown did have two short touchdown runs. But Saban thinks those numbers shouldn’t be construed as a sign of serious problems going into Sunday’s AFC East…
