"You have to remember, a quarterback can only be as good as his supporting cast. Case closed. Always. It will always be that way. Always."

He can squeeze it between hands on a slant, or send a rocket to the line on an out pattern. On a hitch route, Cutler blasts the ball into the stomach before the receiver completes his turn. This guy has Dan Marino-like potential. We've also admired his deep ball - it's very, very deep. Cutler's longer passers are made for speedsters like Devin Hester and Johnny Knox.

Instead, the focus this week for the Bengals is preparing for the best thing the Raiders have going for them: their location. Every week it seems Cincinnati is issued a new challenge to disprove the Same-Old-Bengals Theory. For Week 11, the challenge is to show they can travel to the West Coast and win. In a sense, flying to Oakland is the practice-run for the San Diego game later this season. Instead of arriving on Friday like they normally do when heading…

Last Sunday, the Bills were trounced by the Titans, 41-17, giving up 24 points in the fourth quarter. Two days later, Bills owner Ralph Wilson Jr. pulled the plug on Dick Jauron, firing the beleaguered coach after 3 ½ seasons.
