Bad Looks in Late Games: Russell, Seahawks, Dolphins
Denver 23, Oakland 3.JaMarcus Russell’s passing line: 12-21, 61 yards, two interceptions. And so, your Sign That JaMarcus Russell is a Bust of the Week: Kyle Orton was demonstrably better than him.↵
↵Cincinnati 23, Pittsburgh 20. Carson Palmer led the Bengals to 14 fourth-quarter points and their first win over the Steelers at home since 2001. Sadly, Chad Ochocinco's potential fiesta didn't come to fruition.↵

↵Chicago 25, Seattle 19. The Seahawks wore the Right Guard-green monstrosities pictured above, and that wasn't the ugliest thing about the game. Seattle coughed up a 13-0 lead, and Jay Cutler threw for 247 yards and three scores to lead the Bears to a second comeback win in as many weeks.↵

↵San Diego 23, Miami 13. The Chargers were awful in the red zone, but Miami was terrible until a garbage-time drive. Philip Rivers threw for 303 yards; Chad Pennington and Shawne Merriman both left the game with injuries.↵

↵New Orleans 27, Buffalo 7. The Bills held Drew Brees to just 172 yards passing with no touchdowns, but the Saints defense stepped up, limiting Buffalo to just two of 14 third-down conversions. The only touchdown for the Bills came on a fake field goal. ↵
