Neuheisel interested in SMU job
Rick Neuheisel said Wednesday he had been contacted indirectly
about the open SMU football coaching job. The Baltimore Ravens
offensive coordinator and former Colorado and Washington head
coach said he would be interested in the position. "It's a
diamond in the rough," Neuheisel said of SMU. Neuheisel said
he missed college football and would be interested in the right
opportunity, but he wasn't bent on leaving the NFL. Neuheisel
was fired from Washington for participating in an off-campus
NCAA basketball tournament pool. He later received a $4.5
million settlement from the university and the NCAA, which
essentially cleared him of wrongdoing.
Lions say knee injury means CB Stanley Wilson's season is over
A knee injury has ended the season for Detroit Lions cornerback
Stanley Wilson. The team placed Wilson on injured reserve list
and signed cornerback Ramzee Robinson from the practice squad
Wednesday. Wilson hurt his knee in a 37-26 Thanksgiving loss to
the Green Bay Packers. Robinson is making his second appearance
on the active roster. Detroit called him up for a game against
Tampa Bay on Oct. 21, when he made two special teams tackles.

Patriots, Dolphins mark first time since 1984 that NFL has
11-0 and 0-11 teams
Even Bill Belichick is having a hard time ignoring the attention
on his New England Patriots as they get ever closer to the NFL's
first perfect season in 35 years. "I don't care what everybody
else thinks," he snarled this week after first suggesting that
no one cared except the reporters asking the questions.
"I can tell you what this team thinks. Right now we're thinking
about getting ready for Baltimore. That's how we approach the
game. I can't tell you what anybody else thinks. I don't care
what everybody else thinks. It doesn't make any difference."
It sure does, though, to the Miami Dolphins - for a couple of
reasons. New England is 11-0 on the way to 16-0 - or 19-0, the
record if it wins out through the Super Bowl. That would make
the Patriots the NFL's first unbeaten team since the 1972
Dolphins went 14-0 in the regular season and 17-0 overall,
beating Washington in the Super Bowl. Now, that same Miami
franchise is at the opposite end in this season of extremes,
only the third time in the NFL's 88 seasons that there have
been 11-0 and 0-11 teams at the same time. In 1984, Miami was
11-0 on the way to a 14-2 record and Super Bowl trip with
Dan Marino setting passing records that wouldn't be broken
for two decades. The 0-11 team was Buffalo, which finished
2-14, setting the stage for a housecleaning that brought in
an administration led by Bill Polian and Marv Levy. All they
would do is get the Bills to four straight Super Bowls from
1990-93. The only other time it happened was 1942, when
Chicago was 11-0 and Detroit 0-11.

Bengals RB Chris Perry will stay on injured list rest of season
Running back Chris Perry will miss the rest of the season after
the Cincinnati Bengals decided Wednesday not to activate him
off the physically unable to perform list. Perry has been
sidelined since he broke his lower right leg last Nov. 26
against Cleveland. He resumed practicing with the team three
weeks ago, but hasn't fully recovered. "If they needed me to
play this year, I would have been more than happy to," Perry
said Wednesday. "But honestly, having this time to get into
game shape is a great opportunity. So I'm not really
disappointed. I'm just taking it in stride and getting ready
for next year. "Honestly, I guess everybody feels this is the
best decision." Perry was the 26th overall selection in the
2004 draft out of Michigan, but has been hampered for most of
his career by injuries. He missed most of his rookie season
with a hamstring injury and a hernia. Perry played in 14 games
in 2005, then broke his leg just above the ankle last year.
Coach Marvin Lewis said Perry isn't all the way back from the
injury. "The whole goal is you don't want to put a player out
there on the field that you don't feel is going to be able to
do things day-in and day-out like an NFL player," Lewis said.
"Chris has worked hard. With where we are in the season, and
where he is physically - he's very close - maybe if you had
the luxury of doing that, you would. But you don't want to put
Chris in that situation." Perry will have to emerge from a
crowd of running backs to have a role next season. The Bengals
are currently using Rudi Johnson, DeDe Dorsey and Kenny Watson
at the spot, and second-round draft pick Kenny Irons is
recovering from reconstructive knee surgery.
