Matt Cassel: After being benched last week against the Denver Broncos, Cassel hopes to live up to that big contract he signed and have success against a poor Bills team. Anyone who likes a movie in which the premise is a guy walking around trying to figure out how to cope with shears for hands is too easily amused. He is often in position to make plays, but frequently has interceptions clank off his hands. Overall, it's a well deserved win and the coaching staff did their job. Jackson wound up running for 96 yards, and Bradford had an OK day save for the interceptions, but the intensity was there the whole game. That being said, Sunday's win could be the opening act of Fox's last stand to keep his job (or of his players' last stand to help him do so). They are about to emerge from the toughest four game stretch they have had in a couple of years, and winning two out of their last three games before they play the Oakland Raiders and San Francisco 49ers would put them in great shape.

For some reason, I think that timeline would be a problem with the career trajectory that Newton likely has in mind. He should be out of the NFL for as long as the powers-that-be see fit and I would not want to see him wear a Steelers uniform ever again. Its like he tries to wear the most comfortable clothes possible, just to symbolize how easy and unstressful coaching is for him. The offensive line did a great job of pushing the line of scrimmage and creating holes for the backs throughout the game.

Night Reebok Philadelphia Eagles Kevin Kolb white Jersey On Sale of the Living Dead C The pre-bye week Dallas Cowboys: Now that weve seen what these guys can do, its painfully clear that the Cowboys were a bunch of zombies during the first five games. One thing I seemed to have underestimated was the fact that the Texans secondary is nearly as atrocious as ours, so I apologize for missing that one. Forte had his best outing of the season (121 yards and a touchdown) against the Lions in Week 4, and Detroit should expect a heavy dose of the former Tulane star this week.

The defense played great and created points when safety Nick Collins returned an interception for a touchdown.
What he didnt do was score.
