NFL

Baltimore-Cincinnati

Associated Press

With a victory over Lewis’ Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday
night, the Ravens (9-2) would become the first team to clinch a division
championship this season. A victory in Cincinnati
would snatch the AFC North title away from the Bengals (6-5) and put the Ravens
on course for greater things. Some Ravens are miffed by the way receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh talked down to them the first time they
met this season. The Ravens won 26-20 on Nov. 5, but Houshmandzadeh wasn’t
about to give them any credit afterward. “Deep down, we know we’re better than Baltimore
and they know it,” Houshmandzadeh said. “We’ve got better players than they do.”
Houshmandzadeh isn’t backing down. “I think we’re better than them,” he said
Tuesday. “We’ll find out.”

That jarring loss in Baltimore
became a turning point for Cincinnati.
The offense finally got on a roll, with Carson Palmer throwing for nine
touchdowns in the last three games. For the first time in his career, he has
put up passer ratings above 120 for three games in a row.

Ohio-Central Michigan

Sports Network

Two teams making their first-ever appearance in the
Mid-American Conference championship game will clash this Thursday night at
Ford Field, as the Ohio Bobcats battle the Central Michigan Chippewas. The
Chippewas are coming off their best season since 1994 when the team finished
with a 9-2 ledger and claimed the MAC title. CMU’s season got off to a rough
start, as the team lost three of its first five games. Fortunately the
Chippewas were able to right the ship and closed out the season winning five of
their last six matchups, with the lone loss coming
against Northern Illinois, 31-10. The Chippewas possess
one of the most dangerous offensive units in the MAC in 2006, mainly because of
the team’s potent passing attack, which produced 247.2 ypg.
The success of the aerial assault has led to 29.2 ppg, which ranked the team
first in the MAC in scoring. Quarterback Dan LeFevour
is the biggest reason for the success, as the redshirt freshman had a
sensational season, completing 63 percent of his passes for 2,555 yards. Defensively, the Chippewas were not dominant by any
stretch of the imagination, however the unit did
enough to help produce victories. Overall the team surrendered 24 ppg, while
allowing the opposition to collect 353.2 total ypg.
The unit had some success against the run, permitting just 135.2 ypg, but the team’s weak spot came against the pass, as
opponents threw for 217.9 ypg.

Pistons-Heat

Detroit Free Press

Miami returned
all of its key players from last year’s championship season. But a lot has
changed. The Heat is 6-8, with five losses by 15 points or more. Shaquille O’Neal
is out for another month after a knee operation. Guard Jason Williams is still
limited after off-season knee surgery. Dwyane Wade is
still scoring, but playing too many minutes after entering the season already
exhausted from playing for Team USA
in the World Championships. Gary Payton, 38, and Antoine Walker have struggled;
both have been benched at times by coach Pat Riley.
The Heat’s offense has struggled most. It ranks second-to-last in points scored
per game. MasterLockLine.com

Jazz-Lakers

Salt Lake Tribune

About the Jazz: They are 5-2 on the road. They are 3-1 on
the second night of back-to-back games. They are 7-2 at home. They are in the middle of a stretch of 12 out
of 13 games in the Staples Center.
They have yet to travel east of Salt Lake City,
and won’t until Dec. 12.

Miami (Oh)-Xavier

Press Notes

Xavier is off to a 4-1 start with its lone loss to Alabama,
55-63, in its final game of the Paradise Jam. In its most recent game, Xavier
collected an 86-68 win against American on Saturday. Wednesday marks the 94^th
meeting between Miami and Xavier
with the Musketeers holding a 48-45 edge in the all-time series. When playing
on Xavier’s home court, the Musketeers are 30-17 against the RedHawks. Last season, the Musketeers posted a 75-65 win at
Millett Hall. The last time the teams met at the Cintas Center
(Nov. 22, 2004), Miami

University’s men’s basketball team
continues a four-game road stretch when it travels to Xavier. Illinois,
which entered its Nov. 24 game against the RedHawks
averaging 81.2 ppg, 41.2 rpg and shooting .511 from
the field, was bothered by a persistent RedHawk
defense which gave up just 51 points to the Illini,
out-rebounded them by six boards and held them to 37.8 percent shooting from
the field. It also was the smallest margin of victory for Illinois
this season, with no team getting within 20 points of the Illini
in their previous five wins. Rutgers’ 44 points against Miami
on Nov. 25 marked the fifth time this season the RedHawks
have restricted an opponent to less than 60 points. The previous day, Miami
held Illinois, which was
averaging over 80 points per game, to 51 points. Over the past three seasons, Miami
has confined opponents to less than 60 points 33 times, including 16 times last
season.

10 Arizona on Nov. 12, and won
their next three games by an average of more than 25 points. The Cavaliers
entered the rankings this week for the first time since Dec. 27, 2004. However, Virginia

Cavaliers haven’t won more than three road games in a season since going 5-6
away from home in 2000-01.Virginia has managed to win its first road game in
each of the last three seasons, including 2003-04 and 2004-05, when it also
opened with four home games.

last year.

Kent-Cleveland State

Press Notes

The Golden Flashes (4-2) had their two-game winning streak
snapped in heartbreaking fashion Saturday night, falling at Butler
University 83-80 in a thrilling
double-overtime classic. Cleveland State (4-3) has won three straight and is
off to its best start since 1999-98 in its first season under the direction of
Waters, who coached the Golden Flashes for five seasons from 1996-2001, leading
KSU to its first two NCAA Tournament
appearances. Most recently the Vikings
picked up a 59-53 road win at the University
of Delaware on Sunday. Kent

MEMPHIS +8.5 Denver

This is a top dichotomous ATS and SU game. We discount 98 percent of trends, but this
has proven to be the exception to the rule. Explained in our articles around
the Net, basically if a team has a great SU record but horrid ATS record or
visa versa, you ride for that to continue as it is the sign of which teams are
most under or overvalued. Despite a 3-10 overall mark, Memphis
has covered five straight. They are 0-7 SU on the road, yet 5-1 their last six
ATS. They are far and away the superior
defensive team, with edges in virtually every category.

SJ-R.com

Seven games and 13 days into the season, the Illini are undefeated heading into an early showdown
against No. 25 Maryland (7-0) at Assembly Hall on Tuesday in the ACC-Big Ten
Challenge (6 p.m., ESPN). After Illinois
beat Bradley 75-71 Saturday to win the Chicago Invitational in Hoffman
Estates, Weber appreciated the Illini’s
ability to survive the season’s first two weeks despite injuries to junior
forward Brian Randle and sophomore guard Jamar Smith
plus the suspension of guard Rich McBride. Smith isn’t 100 percent, the guard
said, and his ankle was tender after the game.A
schedule that included Austin Peay, Savannah
State and Florida A&M didn’t hurt.

ATLANTA -3 New Orleans

These are the types of games we exploit.  We told you time and time again,
inconsistency is the biggest enemy of the oddsmakers and square players, but a
huge asset to sharp players. Just as we told you flat out, when Michael Vick
was off the two best back-to-back games of his career and laying big points on
the road, he would fall flat on his face. 
He’s done it his entire career. 
But just when it looks like Atlanta
is better off benching him, he comes out and looks like a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer. That’s what history says will happen today,
especially against the craptastic defense of New
Orleans.

The Saints have returned to earth, losing 3-of-4 SU.  But history does not say this is when they
will rebound. The rode a lot of emotion early in the year and we rode
them.  They are not sneaking up on
everyone anymore. Saints star receiver Marques
Colston will be less than 100 percent, but we expect
him to play. However he is hurt enough that he missed practice Friday.

Atlanta, on
the other hand, gets two very important players back Sunday, defensive end John
Abraham and MLB Ed Hartwell. it will mark the first
time all season the two have been on the field at the same time. “That’s one of
the biggest reasons why we haven’t been playing well or playing like we’re
capable of playing,” linebacker Ike Reese said of their assortment of injuries.
“You have to realize how our defense is built, and those guys are a big part of
our defense. Coming into the season, we knew they’d be big parts to the success
of our defense.

Atlanta will
be much closer to full strength by putting Hartwell back at middle linebacker,
moving Keith Brooking back to his more-natural weakside-linebacker
spot and allowing linebacker Demorrio Williams to be
used only during passing situations. 
Hartwell said he’s not only healthy, but he’s strong for the final six
games. While other players are starting to feel the rigors of the preseason and
10 regular season games, he and Abraham are just getting started.

“A lot of the teams, the players’ legs are tired. We’re
fresh,” Hartwell said. “We’re going into the rest of the season and into the
playoffs with fresh legs. That’s scary right there. We have some players that
are going to run around with a motor that you usually don’t see at the end of
the season.”

7-0 SATURDAY! AFC NORTH GAME OF ALL TIME, NBA L5 TOO!

Steelers-Ravens

Post Gazette

Hines Ward
caught a short red-zone flip from Ben
Roethlisberger and ran it for a touchdown near the end of practice
Friday, his first serious preparation for the Baltimore Ravens this week.
Though he didn’t participate in the entire practice and the Steelers continue
to list him as questionable, the Pro Bowl wideout was
at least moderately encouraged. Ward’s presence is of particular importance
tomorrow, not only because he is a favorite red-zone target of Roethlisberger
(only Indianapolis Marvin Harrison,
with 29, has more red-zone touchdowns than Ward’s 27 in the past five years)
but because he’s a veteran of 16 Steelers-Ravens episodes while none of Big Ben’s
other receivers has played in three. Kick-returner Willie Reid,
listed as doubtful for the Baltimore
game as recently as Thursday, will not play. Running back/kick-returner Najeh Davenport
was upgraded to probable yesterday. Linebackers Clark Haggans and James Harrison, center Jeff Hartings, and
cornerback Deshea Townsend are all probable. In
Baltimore, linebacker Ray Lewis,
offensive guard and former Steeler Keydrick Vincent, tight ends Daniel Wilcox and Todd Heap, and defensive tackle Dwan Edwards remained questionable. Safety Ed Reed and linebacker Adalius Thomas are probable.

Panthers-Redskins

Washington Times

Pro Bowl
receiver Santana Moss, who missed two of the past three games with a strained
hamstring, practiced for a third straight day and expects to play tomorrow when
the Washington Redskins play host to the Carolina Panthers. Moss had sat out
against Dallas, returned to have his worst day with the Redskins in
Philadelphia and was inactive again last week at Tampa Bay.  However,
strong safety Troy Vincent, who left with a strained hamstring in the second
quarter last Sunday, hasn’t been back on the field since and won’t play against
the Panthers. That means that Vernon Fox, signed off waivers from Detroit on
Aug. 29, will start for the first time since the Lions’ 2003 season finale. The
Redskins have lost five of their past six games.

49ers-Rams

St. Louis Today

Sacked just 13 times in the first five games, when the
Rams went 4-1, Bulger has been dumped on 22 times in the Rams’ five-game losing
streak. It’s no coincidence that the offensive output has waned, culminating
with last Sunday’s shutout at Carolina.
Adam Timmerman (bruised ribs) practiced Friday for the second successive day
and will be in the lineup Sunday against San Francisco
at the Edward Jones Dome. “He felt much better. He’s good to go,” Linehan said. Todd Steussie will
start at left tackle, with Alex Barron at right tackle, Incognito at center and
probably rookie Mark Setterstrom at left guard. Setterstrom, inactive for the first nine games, spelled
Timmerman for nine plays at Carolina.
“Mark played well when he went in last week,” Linehan
said. “He’s been working to get to this chance, and it’s about time we gave him
one.” Adam Goldberg, who struggled at left tackle vs. the Panthers, will be
worked into the guard rotation, Linehan said.
Fullback Paul Smith barely had climbed off the shelf when a hamstring injury
put him back on. Smith, who missed two games earlier with an eye injury, was
injured covering the Rams’ last of nine punts at Carolina.

After ranking among the NFL’s top 10 offenses in nine
seasons between 1994 and 2004, the Vikings are producing their second
consecutive season of punchless offense. They ranked
No. 25 in total offense last year, their worst performance since 1984, and this
season the Vikings are on track to set a series of team records for offensive
futility. If they continue at their current pace, the Vikings will break
records for fewest touchdowns (28), first downs (283), touchdown
passes (15) and will come close to the franchise low for points (259) in a
season. Removing running back Chester Taylor’s longest four runs this season—including
a 95-yard touchdown against Seattle—leaves
the Vikings with a 3.3-yard average in its other 269 carries. That total
represents 98.5 percent of the Vikings’ running plays this season. Entering
Sunday’s game against the Vikings, the Cardinals are the league’s worst rushing
offense despite the presence of free agent acquisition Edgerrin James; overall,
their offense is ranked No. 28.

Jaguars-Bills

Jacksonville Times-Union

But perhaps one of the most overlooked units is Jacksonville’s
offensive line, which has consistently churned out solid performances, helping
the team’s rushing attack climb to No. 3 in the NFL while allowing just 14
sacks. Last season, the Jaguars ranked 15^th in total offense (321.8
yards per game) and 10^th in rushing (122.4 ypg)
while allowing 32 sacks. So far this season, the rushing attack is averaging
135.9 yards per game and the offense ranks 16^th overall. Jaguars
guard Vince Manuwai credits the promotion of Andy
Heck from offensive assistant to offensive line coach and the arrival of
assistant head coach Mike Tice with the line’s success so far this season. Upon
the promotion, Heck emphasized to the offensive line the importance of focusing
on its run-block angles, which has resulted in more of a downhill rushing
attack. Bills quarterback J.P. Losman enters into
Sunday’s game coming off a career performance (340 yards passing and 3 TDs) the week prior against the Houston Texans. The Jaguars
hope to cool off Losman by making him
one-dimensional. “He can do it all,” middle linebacker Daryl Smith said. “He
can run and make some plays with his feet, but he’s got a big arm, too. “He’s
playing pretty well right now, so we just want to keep him in the pocket and
make him throw the ball.” Cornerback Terry Cousin (groin)
is doubtful for today’s game. Receiver Ernest Wilford (ankle) is questionable along with Cortez Hankton (hamstring) and cornerback Brian Williams
(hamstring), who missed portions of Friday’s workout. Buffalo
running back Willis McGahee (ribs) practiced on Friday, but is listed as
questionable for Sunday’s game.

Eagles-Colts

Philadelphia Daily News

Philadelphia
minus Pro Bowl quarterback Donovan McNabb for the remainder of the season and
riding a below-average 5-5 record, will be traveling
to Indianapolis tomorrow night to
face perhaps the NFL’s most dangerous scoring squad. The Colts, who are 9-1
after losing their first game last Sunday to the Dallas Cowboys, lead the
league in total offense with 374.8 yards per game and passing offense with 270
yards per outing.The Colts’ high-powered offense is
due primarily to Manning’s consistency and accuracy to his steady receivers,
Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne. Those two account for 1,698 of Manning’s
league-leading 2,781 passing yards. The key, however, for the Eagles, who are
approaching this game as a must win to keep their playoff hopes alive, will be controlling the game’s tempo. So far this
season, the Colts have averaged 10 offensive series per game, keeping their
opponents’ defense on the field for an average of 31-plus minutes per game.

The Eagles were used to a quick-strike offense with
McNabb, but will likely alter their game plan slightly with backup quarterback
Jeff Garcia under center at the RCA Dome. Because the Colts do such a great job
controlling the ball and the clock, Stallworth said
the Eagles’ offense has to maximize its time with the ball. Donté Stallworth returned to practice and
went the entire time after missing Thursday’s session with hamstring issues. Stallworth, who missed four games earlier this season with
a strained hamstring, said he is fine and expects to play tomorrow night…
Linebacker Shawn Barber (knee)
did not practice yesterday and will not play against the Colts. Coach Andy Reid said he plans to have Matt McCoy and Michael Lewis working in and out of the position.Cornerback
William James (knee) did not
practice while linebacker Jason Short
(ankle sprain) was limited in practice. Both are listed as questionable.

Raiders-Chargers

San Francisco Chronicle

Raiders left guard Barry Sims was ruled out for Sunday’s
game with an ongoing abdomen problem by Raiders coach Art Shell on Friday,
putting quarterback Aaron Brooks behind a makeshift offensive line. The
starting five, barring further decimation: — Left tackle Chad Slaughter, whose
lone career start was in the 2003 season finale at San Diego.—Left guard Corey
Hulsey, making his third straight start in place of Sims after going four years
without a start.—Center Jake Grove, playing with a hyperextended
left elbow.—Right guard Kevin Boothe, a rookie from
Cornell who began the season on the bench.—Right tackle Langston Walker, who
sprained his ankle falling over left tackle Robert Gallery last week,
dislocating Gallery’s elbow.
