They will try to keep the hot start going Sunday versus the Houston Texans at Paul Brown Stadium, where Cincinnati will be aiming for its first five-game winning streak since the Sam Wyche-guided Bengals opened the 1988 campaign with six straight wins en route to a Super Bowl appearance.

CINCINNATI (AP) -The Bengals got a one-day extension to sell out their game on Sunday against the Houston Texans and avoid a local television blackout. More than 3,000 tickets remained for the game.

McElroy compares his demeanor to cerebral former Tide linebacker DeMeco Ryans, now with the NFL's Houston Texans. ``Very much a team player,'' McElroy said. ``Very respectful player. Really just wants the best for this team.'' Even without Hightower, the Tide still has some depth and star power at linebacker. McClain leads the team in tackles and has two |

| ARIZONA: The Arizona Cardinals were able to close within a half-game of the 49ers' lead atop the AFC West by holding on for a victory that came by literally the slimmest of margins. A Cardinals' defense that was powerless to stop Matt Schaub and the Houston Texans' passing attack for nearly all of the second half came through when it mattered most last Sunday, mounting a game-saving goal-line stand in the final seconds to preserve a wild 28-21 triumph. The unit also came up with the game's pivotal play late i |
