Cincinnati Bengals QB Matt Scott puking not new - ESPN

Is Andy Dalton worth it? That’s the question that was asked in and around the sport after the news came out Monday that the fourth-year quarterback had agreed to a six-year contract extension with the Cincinnati Bengals worth as much as $115 million. Dalton, after all, has a career playoff record of 0-3 in the NFL and he was tied as the league’s 15th-rated passer last season.

But only after his cool, steady No. 2, 79-start Jason Campbell, melted in the preseason opener with two pick sixes while suffering a bruise on his throwing arm that looks like is going to take him out of practice much of this week and makes him questionable for Saturday’s 7 p.m. game against the Jets at Paul Brown Stadium.
Third downs, red zone, and a colossal breakdown by the defense cost the Steelers a chance to win EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Not good enough to win. Another preseason game, another instance of the Steelers doing some nice things, but ultimately another instance of it not being good enough to win. The Steelers’ preseason losing streak is now at five straight following the 20-16 defeat at the hands of the New York Giants on Saturday night at MetLife Stadium, and while the first four had little to do with the fifth, they will all be linked until the outcome is different.
