A neurosurgeon recommended season-ending surgery for Cincinnati Bengals center Rich Braham on Monday after a magnetic resonance imaging test found a herniated disc in his neck. Braham doesn't want to have the surgery and will get another opinion before deciding whether to keep playing. Braham, an eight-year veteran, is the first Bengals starter to have a serious injury this season. On Monday, Bills coach Gregg Williams said the team will place Farris on the injured reserved list, and consider their options on how to fill that roster spot. Farris was blocking at the line when running back Travis Henry fell helmet first into the back of Farris' leg during the first quarter of Sunday's 20-3 loss to Pittsburgh.
Ravens rebound vs.
Nine months later, the Denver Broncos still couldn't move the ball against the Baltimore Ravens. Itching to prove their playoff flop was an aberration, the Broncos were again frustrated by Baltimore's defense in a 20-13 loss to the Ravens on Sunday. Miami was supposed to pose a stiff test, but the Rams, who sputtered at times in their first two games, rolled up 451 yards in total offense, and Warner engineered a 99-yard scoring drive in the third quarter. In winning their previous two games, the Colts averaged 33 first-half points and Manning threw six touchdown passes. But he also threw four interceptions.
