Brady Quinn received a fine for a "good amount" for the chop block on Terrell Suggs in Monday night's game vs. the Ravens. The Ravens won the game 16-0 and the Browns continue their dismal ways.
The block happened after another Quinn interception and left Suggs injured indefinitely - the Ravens are furious.
"Heck yeah it was a cheap shot,'' Ray Lewis told the AP after Baltimore's 16-0 win. "When you're running down and you're looking at the quarterback going at somebody's knees who doesn't even have the ball. I want to see if he gets the same fine I got or even higher. Now this man is out four or five weeks because of some baloney like that.''

Steelers vs Broncos Score
The Pittsburgh Steelers showed why they are the world champions. Denver looked very strong in the first quarter with the offense moving the ball and their defense was showing why it is ranked so well.
However.... This IS the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Broncos had a good opening drive, but the Steeler defense held them to a Matt Prater 40 yard field goal. Denver still looked like the better team until Kyle Orton's first interception. Tyrone Carter, filling in for Ryan Clark, ran the interception back 48 yards for the score and the Pittsburgh lead.
In the third quarter, Denver scored on a Ben Roethlisberger fumble and recovery by Robert Ayers, who ran it back 54 yards for the Denver lead.
Then, the Steelers seem to get a little mad. The took 6 plays to go 82 yards with Hines Ward's 3 yard TD completion. According to Roethlisberger, "We went into the no huddle and changed the game".
The Steelers went on to score in the waning minutes to get the score to 28-10.
Rashard Mendenhall was a huge force as he had 22 carries for 155 yards, most coming in the second half.
According to Roethlisberger "We're going to enjoy this for an hour or two, then we have to get ready for a tough Cincinnati team".
The Steelers and Broncos are both 6-2.

Maclaren Stroller Recall
This just in.... Maclaren announced it is recalling up to 1 million baby strollers. All strollers were produced between 1999 and 2009.
Why? The company received reports of hinges on the strollers that amputated the fingertips of babies! The company announced that it will send out covers for the hinges to all owners.
A press release is due to come out on Tuesday announcing all the details of the stroller recall.
For the time being, you should probably do the following:
* Stop using all Maclaren strollers immediately;
* When the recall is officially announced on Tuesday, order a hinge cover from Maclaren's website (website should be up and running tomorrow);
* Install the hinge covers before using the stroller again.

Eagles Cowboys Score
Cowboys received, Miles Austin, continues to be on his streak. He only caught one pass, but it was good enough to be the go ahead score. The 49 yard TD pass in the fourth quarter was enough for the defense to take over and secure the win.
This win is the fourth in a row for the Cowboys - remember when people were calling for coach Phillip's resignation??? This win should take care of those cries.
Dallas is now 6-2 and in sole possession of first place in the NFC East. This is the first time they have been in first place since two seasons ago.
The Dallas defense has been the difference maker the past few games. If you ignore the Giants game from week #2, that Dallas defense has held opponents to an average of 14 points!
Dallas is back on top!

BCS Rankings Week 11
To absolutely no ones’ surprise, Tim Tebow and the Florida Gators remain at #1 with their win Saturday. The #2 and #3 spots switched places with again with Texas and Alabama – it’s Alabama’s turn now as they are now the 2nd ranked team.
With Iowa’s surprising loss to Northwestern, the Big Ten’s hopes of a national champion are over. The big surprise as to who is now #4????
TCU!!! Yes, TCU!!! TCU moves to #4 and are just ahead of Cincinnati and Boise State – all of whom are still undefeated with three more games to go.
IF TCU is going to have any chance of appearing in the national championship game, however, they are going to need some help from the top three. It is highly unlikely that they will be able to move up to #1 or #2 without losses from two of the top three teams.
There is going to be a lot of attention paid to TCU, as their ranking is the HIGHEST of any team EVER that did not have an automatic bid to one of the big time (and money) bowl games!
