OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) -Chad Johnson issued a friendly warning to Ray Lewis on Wednesday, joking that when he faces the Baltimore Ravens linebacker Sunday he will ``hit him in the mouth.'' Johnson has 36 catches and two touchdowns for the Cincinnati Bengals, who need a victory in Baltimore to avoid falling two games behind the first-place Ravens in the AFC North. Cincinnati swept the Ravens last year with the aid of Johnson's 10 receptions for 179 yards and a touchdown against cornerbacks Samari Rolle and |

| well-regarded backup and a more accurate thrower, under center. Those detractors are mighty quiet right now, after Vick assembled his second consecutive sensational performance to help lift Atlanta to Sunday's big 29-27 victory on the road over the Cincinnati Bengals. The playmaking signal-caller opened eyes when he threw for 232 yards and a career-best four touchdowns to enable the Falcons to prevail in a see-saw overtime battle with Pittsburgh in Week 7. Vick then one-upped that effort with a near-flawless gam |

CINCINNATI (AP) -Rudi Johnson thinks the Cincinnati Bengals should stop trying to get fancy and stick with the running game. Willie Anderson thinks they need to get tougher and figure out what they want to do. A day after the Bengals' latest loss, coach Marvin Lewis had no shortage of suggestions for how to get it right. Not that he wanted to hear any of them, of course. The defending AFC North champions are still in a funk with the middle of the season approaching, and the frustration is starting to bub |

It was a welcome offensive burst for the Panthers, who last week were shut out in the second half of their 17-14 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Delhomme was 11-of-20 for 120 yards, and Smith had five receptions for 50 yards through three quarters. Romo helped the Cowboys respond to Carolina's second touchdown by leading a scoring drive early in the second quarter. The Panthers were f |

| (MySportsbook) - The Atlanta Falcons will make their first trip out of Georgia in over a month when they travel north to battle the Cincinnati Bengals at Paul Brown Stadium. Since losing in New Orleans on September 25, the Falcons have played three games -- all at the Georgia Dome. Atlanta is coming off a wild win over the Pittsburgh Steelers last Sunday. The game was a battle between two of the best rushing offenses in the NFL, so the aerial assault that ensued was a bit surprising. In the end, the Falcons wo |
