| Berea, OH (MySportsbook) - Cleveland Browns head coach Eric Mangini announced Wednesday that Derek Anderson will quarterback the club on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. Mangini indicated Monday that a change at the position could be forthcoming in the wake of an ugly 34-3 loss to the Ravens this past weekend as Brady Quinn was benched in favor of Anderson to start the second half. Quinn beat out Anderson in an open competition for the job during training camp and the preseason, although, the first-year |

Mangini said on Monday that he won't decide on a starter for this Sunday's home game against the Cincinnati Bengals until Wednesday, though don't be surprised if the coach plays it close to the vest with his choice until this weekend.

Sweed had one catch for 5 yards and dropped a pass in the end zone in the third quarter on Sunday as the Steelers fell to 1-2 with a 23-20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals (2-1). Sweed, who missed the previous game with a foot injury, has a history of dropped passes in his young career - most famously a drop while wide open during last season's AFC Championship game.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press.

| Louis Rams. The Packers went to the Gateway City and handled the Rams, 36-17, on Sunday, spoiling head coach Steve Spagnuolo's home opener with the team and washing away some of the residue of the previous week's home loss to the suddenly- relevant Cincinnati Bengals. Fans in Green Bay were probably a bit loathe to take much meaning away from the Rams win, given that struggling St. Louis scored a season-high 17 points and hung around until the fourth quarter, but head coach Mike McCarthy didn't see it that way. |

| (MySportsbook) - The Green Bay Packers were dropped to the canvas last week in a shocking home loss to the resurgent Cincinnati Bengals. They will try not to lose to another underdog team this Sunday, when they take on the winless St. Louis Rams at the Edward Jones Dome. Green Bay had no answer for Bengals defensive end Antwan Odom, as the mammoth defender sacked Aaron Rodgers five times and Cincinnati posted seven sacks total. Rodgers still has a strong day with 261 yards passing and a touchdown, but Packers |

Pegged to be washed up -- no pun intended -- after being arrested as part of a boating party scandal a few years ago as a member of the Chicago Bears, Benson got a second chance to revive his career with the Bengals midway through last season. Since then, the former first-round pick o |

CINCINNATI (AP) -Hines Ward says he'd lay another tough hit on Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Keith Rivers, even if it means drawing a penalty. The Pittsburgh Steelers leveled Rivers with a straight-up block from the side during a game last season, breaking the linebacker's jaw and ending his season. Such blocks have since been banned under the league's rules changes. Hines and Rivers will face each other Sunday in Cincinnati for the first time since the hit. Rivers said on Wednesday that he hopes the rules |
