CINCINNATI — Chad Ochocinco walked into the Cincinnati Bengals’ locker room on Monday afternoon wearing a gray sweatsuit and black slippers, talking to someone on a shiny gold cell phone.

Care to chat about the Bengals’ offense?

“Nothing to talk about,” he said, before heading for the door.

Oakland Raiders coach Tom Cable said Wednesday that he would bench quarterback JaMarcus Russell for back-up Bruce Gradkowski, formerly of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Steelers Out-Muscle Broncos at Mile High



The Pittsburgh Steelers went on the road and dominated the Denver Broncos on Monday night for a final score of 28-10. The game was a lot closer than you may think--until the second half. It was 7-3 in favor of the Steelers at halftime, but Denver stayed in it.

Both teams may have scored a touchdown in the third quarter to make it 14-10, but all hell broke loose for the Broncos after that--specifically for their defense, as the Steelers scored 14 unanswered points in the fourth quarter.
