That puts McNabb's timetable for recovery anywhere between July and the middle of next season. ``He's got some hard work ahead of him,'' Reid said. ``He'll get after it.'' Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer suffered a torn ACL in the playoffs last season and made it back in time for the start of the regular season. But a key to McNabb's success as a quarterback has been his outstanding mobility, picking up first downs with his |

NEW ORLEANS (AP) -Saints rookie Marques Colston, the NFL's receiving leader through 10 weeks, left Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals with a left ankle sprain. Colston was blocking on a Deuce McAllister running play to his side of the field when he got bowled over from behind by several tacklers. Colston stayed on his back, wincing as trainers looked at him and the crowd began to chant his name. He then got up and jogged to the bench as the crowd erupted. He was taken on a cart to the locker room |

San Diego has averaged 38.8 points per game over that five-game stretch, with last week's 49-41 come-from-behind victory over the Cincinnati Bengals helping the cause. That irresistible force will be contested by the immovable object that has been the Denver defense. The Broncos are first in the league with a scant 12.3 points allowed per game, including a total of just eight touchdowns allowed |

| (MySportsbook) - The Cincinnati Bengals will try and stop a three-game losing streak on Sunday afternoon, when they visit the Louisiana Superdome to take on the New Orleans Saints. Cincinnati suffered a heartbreaking loss to the San Diego Chargers last week, losing 49-41 after blowing a 21-0 lead and giving up 42 points in the second half, the most allowed in a half in Bengals history. The crowd at Paul Brown Stadium was stunned by the defeat, which came despite the amazing days from both Carson Palmer and Cha |

Then things started to turn under Price, who handed the reins of his pass-oriented offense to Palmer, the younger brother of Heisman Trophy winner Carson Palmer of the Cincinnati Bengals. ``He was anonymous when I got here,'' Price said of Higgins. To some extent so were the Miners. But Higgins' role - and UTEP's profile - grew during back-to-back winning seasons and the school's first consecutive bowl appearances in 50 years. H |

CINCINNATI (AP) -An historic second-half collapse has left the Cincinnati Bengals' season on the brink. No one is trying to sugarcoat their desperation heading into a game Sunday in New Orleans. If they lose, their playoff chances are probably gone. ``We can't lose this week,'' defensive end Justin Smith said. ``I'd be pretty safe in saying that.'' Teams don't usually put such high stakes on a mid-November game. At 4-5, the defending AFC North champions are still in the playoff mix, and they know it. B |
