Maybe it's just me...but all those things could be posted in the same post...none of them are super huge stories....so they could all be placed in one thread like Buff used to do .

Buff USED to make sense to. So?

I post them as they come off the AP wire. So, not everything is in the same post because they may come in 5 hours apart.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh (heel) is listed as questionable for Week 3

He's expected to play, but I've heard that before. Watch to see if Housh practices. If so, he's a good-but-not great WR2/3 against Pittsburgh this week. Antonio Chatman (groin) is doubtful.

***There are conflicting reports about whether T.J. Houshmandzadeh (questionable, heel) practiced Wednesday***

The Bengals official team site indicates he didn't practice. The league's official injury report says that he did. The Cincinnati Enquirer's blog oddly doesn't say either way. Housh is expected to play, but I've still heard that before.

RB Kevin Jones has already set a new career-high with three fumbles this season

And just so we're clear, it's only Week 3. "I'm not going to harp on it," Jones said. "I know I'm not just going to give the ball up every game. I've just got to hold on to it. It'll be in the back of mind though, just to hold on to it, one of my focuses." Uh... you're +1 in that department already. Jones is a weak 2nd tier RB this season and might slip down to tier 3 if he continues to cough the ball up every game.

Texans head coach Gary Kubiak says "chances are" Ron Dayne will start in Week 3 over rookie Wali Lundy

"They†™‚¢‚¢¢¢¬…¡‚¬‚¢¢¢¬…

¾‚¢re going to all play," Kubiak added. "But what you†™‚¢‚¢¢¢¬…¡‚¬‚¢¢¢¬…¾

‚¢re going to see is Ronnie and Samkon (Gado)†™‚¢‚¢¢¢¬…¡‚¬‚¢¢¢¬…¾

‚¢s role get bigger and bigger as the weeks go on and on." Kubiak seems to be letting Wali Lundy down easily. Dayne has a chance to matter in fantasy leagues if he can get 15 carries a game. But, there is also a good chance he could start the rest of the year and not have any fantasy value with the 3 headed RBBC they got there.

Coach Lovie Smith angrily disputed claims that Cedric Benson was pouting after Sunday's win

Benson didn't play a snap in Week 3 and a local writer reportedly saw the coaching staff trying to raise Benson's spirits. Smith said Benson is doing everything the team has asked. I've linked the original article below.

NFL Network's Adam Schefter says Terry Glenn (hand) will play Sunday

Glenn wasn't on the injury report, so this isn't surprising. He makes for an excellent fantasy play versus the Tennessee Titans this weekend.
