~lost U.S. militaf) officials have preferred a clas::.ic counterinsurgency mission to keep al-Qaida out of
Afghanistan by defeating
the Taliban and securing the
local population.
However. one senior
Whi.te House official said
it's not clear that the Talihan
would welcome al-Qaida
back into Afghanistan . The
official noted that it was
onlv after the 9/ II attacks
that the United States invaded Afghanistan and deposed
the Taliban in pursuit of alQaida.
Pakistan will not allow
the United States to deploy
a large-scale military troop
buildup on
its soil.
Howeyer. its militarv and
intelligence sen ices are
believed to have assisted the
U.S. with airstrikes. even
while the government has
publicly condemned them.
The Pakistan Embassy in
Wa~hington did not immediately return calls seeking
comment.
Wider use of inissile
strikes and less reliance on
ground troops would mark
Obama's second shift in
strategy and tactics since
taking office last January.
Such a move would
amount to an admission that
usmg a traditional military
strategy to take on the
Taliban with thousands
more troops is doomed to
failure, echoing Russia's
disastrous Afghanistan invasion in the late 1980s and
other ill-fated conquerors in
the more distant past.
But stepping up attacks
on the remnants of al-Qnida
also would dovetail with
Obama's presidential campaign promise of directly
going after the terrorist network that spawned the Sept.
II , 200 I , attacks on New
York and Washington.
Over the past few weeks.
White House and Pentagon
officials have debated the
best way to defeat ai-Qaida
- and whether to send

more troops to Afghanistan
to hattie the extremist
·n1liban clement~ that hosted Osama bin Laden and his
operatiYes in the 1990s and
have continued to aid the
terrorist group.
tvlcChrysta I has argued
that without more troops the
United States could lose the
war against the Talihan and .
allied insurgents .
"Resources will not win
this war. but under-resourcin~
could
lose
it.''
McChrystal \\rote in a livepage

Summarv that was unveiled
Sunday
by
the
late
Washington Post. His 66page report. which \\as also
made public by the Post in a
partly classified version after
appeals from Pentagon officials, was sent to Defense
Secretary Robert Gates on
Au~. 30 and is now under
rcv1ew at the 'White Hou-;e.
White House officials
have made clear that
Pakistan should be the top
concern since that is where
top al-Qaida leaders, including bin Laden himself, are
believed to be hidin¥. Very
few al-Qaida extremtsts are
believed to still be in
Afghanistan, according to
military and White House
officials.
There have been mo1e
than 50 missile strikelt

smce August 2008, according to an Associated Press
count. Two weeks ugo, a
lJ .S. drone killed a key suspected nl-Qaida recruiter
and
trainer,

national Jlyas Knshmiri.
A draft study by Notre
Dame Law School professor Mary Ellen O'Connell
found that drone attacks by
the U.S. in Pakistan began
in 2004, jumped dramatically in 2008 and continue to
climb so fur this year.
But the attacks target
Taliban in Pakistan as well
as al-Qaida, O'Connell said
in an interview .Monday,
pointing to an Aug. 5 CIA

mi:-.sile strike that killed
Taliban leader Baitullah
Mchsud.
"The only rea!'.on people
think drones are successful
i:-. because they're doing a
body count," O'Connell
said. "They're not looking
at the bigger picture" of
Pakistani animosity. she
added.
One of the White House
officials said that Mehsud.
an al-Qaida ally. was targeted as a threat to Pakistan at
the behest of that nation's
leaders.
On Capitol Hill, lawmakers divided largely on party
lines over whether more
C .S. troops should be sent
to Afghani~tan. Se\'eral said
~1cChrvstal 's
assessment
shows -that the American
strategy in Afghanistan
remains
murky,
and
renewed demands that the
general personally explain
his
conclusions
to
Congress.
"We have reached a turning point in Afghanistan as
to whether we are going to
formally adopt nationbuilding as a policy.'' said
Sen. Jim Webb. D-Va., a
former secretary of the
Navy during the Reagan
administration.
High-level Obama aides
said the Pentagon's case to
send more troops was being
pushed most aggressively
by Joint Chiefs chairman
Adm. Mike Mullen.
White House offic1als
were d1u~ht off guard and
reacted w1th displeasure lnst
week when Mullen told a
Senate panel that more
troops were all but certainly
needed in Afghanistan. and
that a second report asking
for the additional forces
would be delivered "in the
very near future."
Gates has said he has not
decided whether he agrees
that more troops are needed.
and Obama made clear in
his weekend interviews that
he is far from ready to
decide.

quibble. Both the House bill
and the Senate Finance
Committee proposal clearly
state that the fines would be
a tax.
And the reason the fines
arc in the legislation is to
enforce
the
coverage
re~uircment.

·II' you put something in
the Internal Revenue Code,
and you tell the IRS to collect it, I think that's a tax:·
said Clint Stretch, head of
the tax policy group for
Deloitte. a major accounting
linn. "If you don't pay. the
person who·~ going to come
and get it is going to be
from the IRS."
Democrats aren't the first
to propose that individuals
be required to carry health
insurance and fined if they
refuse. The conservative
Heritage Foundation called'
for such a mandate in the
1990s' health care debate,
although its propo~al differed from the one~ pending
in Congres::.. Heritage has
since dropped the idea and
now favors using tax credits
to encourage people to buy
coverage - carrots and not
sticks.
During the 2008 political
campaign, Obama opposed
makmg coverage mandatory because of the costs. His
position has shifted now
that it's becoming clear
such a requirement will be
part of any legislation that
Con!iress
sends
him.
I Conservative activists are
calling it a violation of his
pledge not to raise taxes on
the middle class.
''Thi&amp; is exactly what
George Bush Sr. d1d when
he said he wouldn't raise
taxes, and it cost him the
next election,'' said Grover
Norquist, president of
Americans for Tax Reform.
"Obama is doing the same
thing, but he's insulting
people by te!lins them that
1f you don't call tt a big pur-·
pie banana, somehow it
wouldn't be a tax.''
Some liberals acknowledge that Obama might be
vulnerable on the insurance
requirement. But they say
most people will understand
as long as the legislation
provides enough subsidies
to make the covera!!e
affordable for those who
would riow be required to
have it. The :-.it.e of those tax
credits is a central issue as
the
Senate
Finance
Committee :-.tarts voting on
legislation Tuesday.
''I think it's a metaphysical question as to whether
it's a tax or not." said Roger
Hickey. co-director of the

I

Campaign for America's
Future. "The real quest,.
that will determine whet
people are upset b whet l.!r
the insurance is affordable.''
In an intervicvv' that aired
Sunday on ABC's ''This
Week.'' Obama insisted that
the insurance requirement i::.
not a rax.
··For us to say that you've
got to take a responsibility
to get health insurance is
absolutelv not a tax
mcrease :·· the president
said. "What it's saying
is ...that we're not going to
have other people carrying
your burdens for you anymore.
"Right nO\\• everybody in
America, just about, has to
get auto insurance,"' Obama
added. ''Nobody considers
that a tax increase,
"You just can't make up
that language and dec ide
that that's called a tax
increase,'' he added.
But a Democratic staff
description or Sen. M.
Baucus· bill calls the p
posed fines an "excise tax.
Initially. the
Montuno
Democrat\ plan called for
penalties of up to $950 for
individuals and $3 ,800 for
families. But Sen. Kent
Conrad. D-:',LD.. said
Monday he expects the family penalt) to be slashed in
half to $1.900.
The House bill use:-. a
complex formula to calculate the penalties. calli11g
them a ''tax on individual
without acceptable health
care coverage." People
would report their insurance
coverage on their tax
returns .
The covera~e mandate is
part of a political bargain in
which the insurance industry would agree to take all
applicants. re~ardless of
prior medical h1story.
"If \\'e 're going to have
coverage without regard to
pre-existing conditions • .
makes sense.'' said eco
mist Roberton Williams
the Tax Policy Center.
"Otherwise people will
come in the door the dny
they get sick." He sees no
distinction between the
requirement to get coverage
and the fines themselv~::..
"The fac t that it is
imposed on people and they
have no cho1ce m ~ayi ng it.
and the fact that it s administered through the tax system all make it look like a
tax," Wi ll iams said . The
center is a joint venture of
the Urban Institute and the
Brookings Institution.
It wouldn't be the first
asterisk added to Obama 's
campaign pledge on taxes.
Earlier this year. he signed a
tobacco tax increase to pay
for children's health insurance. Even that can be read
as a violation of his expansive campaign promise.
''I can make a firm
pledge:· he said in DO\.
N.H .. on Sept. 12. 20
"Under my plan. no fami ly
making less than $250.000 a

look ha~:k at my rclalionships with
my do~o.:tor. . 111 th~: past five year/\, I
have to say I am glad to be moving. I
don't seem to get the respect I wmH
from doctors. and the) seem to dismiss me and not titke me senou5.ly. I
hope you can give me some ttps for
getting the upper hnnd once I have
ne'' doctors to consult. - R.P.
Dear R.P.: It's good that you are
mo\ ing and can make a new start you recognize that there may have
been something lacking in your
approach to the medical community.
and you ''ant to improve )'OUr relationship this time around. That's a
healthy attitude! You probabl) will
have a number of ch01ces of physicirms in your new town. Wh) not do
some searching online for doctor recommendations by patients - a relatively new thing that you may not ha\e
seen before? If you can take the time
to talk to some people you trust when you figure out who they are! ~
ask them for rel'ommendations. II you
~an pick good physicians with good
ds1de manner. you "ill have the
dds stacked in your favor when it

come!' to communication.
Ask for a consultation w1th the doctors before you h1re one. Discuss your
concerns, and a~k the questions that
wiJI give you an idea of their philosophy. Perhaps you need more input into
your treatment. or maybe you like to
be told \Vhat to do by an authoritative
expert. You have to match your style
to theirs. It is not a colllest of wits.
though - when you talk about wanting to get the upper hand. it concern~
me. Control of your own life is good,
but feeling like you are in a competition with each doctor is not. So consider your medical relationship goals
before you settle on anyone or start
lamenting when thing~ go wrong.

Dear Dr. Brothers: I am an old

TODAY IN HISTORY
: Today is Tuesday, Sept. 22. the 265th day of 2009. There
are 100 days left in the year. Autumn arrives at 5:18 p.m.
Eastern time.
Today's Highlight in History:,On Sept. 22, 1776, during
the Revolutionary War, Capt. Nath'an Hale. 21, was hanged
as a spy by the British in New York.
On this date: In 1656, in colonial Maryland, an all-female
jury heard the case of Judith Catchpole, an indentured servant who was accused of killing her newborn baby during
a voyage from England. (The jury, which believed
Catchpole's assertion that she hadn't even been pregnant,
acquitted her.)
In 1761, Britain'~ King George III and his wife.
Charlotte, were crowned in Westminster Abbey.
In 1862, President Abraham Lincoln issued the· prelimiryary Emancipation Proclamation, declaring all slaves in
rebel states should be free as of Jan. 1, 1863.
In 1927, Gene Tunney successfully defended his heavyweight boxing title against Jack Dempsey in the famous
"long-count" fight in Chicago.
In 1938. the musical comedy revue "Hellzapoppin' ,"
starring Ole Olsen and Chic Johnson, began a three-year
r:un on Broadway.
In 1959, Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev arrived in Iowa
for a two-day stopover, during which he visited a corn
farm, held talks with former Illinois Gov. Adlai Stevenson,
and ate his first hot dog.
In 1964, the musical "Fiddler on the Roof' opened on
Broadway, beginning a run of 3,242 perfom1ances.
In 1975, Sara Jane Moore attempted to shoot President
Gerald R. Ford outside a San Francisco hotel, but missed.
(Moore served 32 years in prison before being paroled on
Dec. 31, 2007 .)
In 1980, the Persian Gulf conflict between Iran and Iraq
erupted intO full-scale war that lasted nearly eight years.
Five years ago: British hostage Kenneth Bjgley, 62,
appeared on a video posted on an Islamic Web site weeping
and pleading for his life. (Bigley was later beheaded by his
captors.) In Haiti, the death toll from Tropical Storm Jeanne
topped 1,000. CBS-owned stations were fined $550,000 by
the FCC for Janet Jackson's exposed right breast during the
Super Bowl halftime show. (The case is still under legal
review.) "Lost" premiered on ABC.
One year ago: Jury selection began in Washington for the
federal corruption trial of Sen. Ted Stevens. R-Aiaska.
(Jurors later found that Stevens had lied on Senate financial
disclosure forms to conceal hundreds of thousands of dollars
in gifts and home renovations from a wealthy oil contractor,
but the Justice Department later moved to dismiss the indictment because prosecutors had mishandled the case; Stevens
lost h~s re-election bid.) Marjorie Knoller, whose dogs
viciously attacked and killed her neighbor, Dianne Whipple,
· ih their San Francisco apartment building in 2001, was sentenced to 15 years to life in prison after her second-degree
murder conviction was reinstated. lbe U.S. Mint unveiled
the first changes to the penny in 50 years, with Abraham
Lincoln's pottrait still on the obverse side. but new designs
replacing the Lincoln Memorial on the reverse side.

smile."- William Cullen Bryant, American poet (1794 1878).

LOUDON. N.H. (AP) When a young driver isn't
sure how to approach an ontrack situation. they often
ask themselves ··what
would Mark Martin do'?''
With ·a championship on
I the line. Martin fooled the
competition and won.
The 50-year-old driver
held off Juan Pablo
Montoya on a three-lap
sprint to the finish Sunday
to win the Chase for the
Sprint Cup championship
opener at New Hampshire
:0.1otor Speedw·ay. After,
Montoya accused Martin of
holding him up at the start
of the second lap .
"What he did. not cool at
all,'' Montoya radioed hi.,

But Martin insisted the

move, which clearly surprised Montoya. was within
bounds.
"I fought for that race:·

and three-time defendino
champion Jimmie Johnson~
.. Pinch me. I am sure I'm
sleeping. I am sure 1 am
dreaming," Mattin said.
Martin crew chief Alan
Gustafson used mid-race pit
strategy to get the No.5 into
contention. He didn't bring
Martin in for a pit stop
under yellow that was outside their fuel window,
knowing they'd get a
chance to stop later in the
race.

;_foledo just what Buckeyes needed
COLUMBUS (AP) 'After u loss to Southern
Califomia, Ohio State's fans
took shots at coach Jim
Tressel, and he returned the
favor.
But a win over a familiar
foil - an in-state opponent.
'in this case Toledo - lightened the mood of the
Buckeyes and their follow(::rs.
· "1 'm losing memory of the
USC game," quarterback
Terrelle Pryor said in the
afterglow of No. 13 Ohio
State ' s 38-0 slapdown of
Toledo on Saturday.
: It had been a trying week
for the Buckeyes in the wake
of that 18-15 setback to
USC. Fans swamped call-in
shows and sent innumerable
posts to Web sites criticizing
Tressel's archconservative
approach to the game.
In retum, Tressel said such
fan s were ''miserable" and
··sad.' '
But as the score mounted
at
Cleveland
Browns
Stadium, the pressure ana
tension seemed to diminish.
The game against the
Rockets couldn't have come
at a much better tiJne for the
beleaguered
13th-ranked
Buckeyes. After a narrow 3127 win over Navy's tripleoption in the opener and then
the discouraging come-fromahead loss to USC, Ohio

State needed somethin~ to
feel good about.
~
The win left it looking
ahead and looking up for a
change.
For six decades the
Buckeyes did not schedule
an in-state foe as they rose in
national status . Why risk a
lofty ranking against a smaller school? ff they ever lost,
what kind of an impact
would that have on recruiting. as Ohio State almost
owns the blue-chippers within the state's borders?
. But Jim Jones answered
those questions by scheduling Bowling Green in 1992.
The move has kept money in
the state instead of paying
Rice or Northem Illinois to
play, has helped raise the
profile of some in-state
schools and has been a
bonanza for the Buckeyes on
the field.
Since Ohio teams - principally those from the MidAmerican Conference began dotting the Ohio State
schedule, the Buckeyes have
won all 20 games. The average score in those meetings
is 35-16.
''We really. needed this win
today, big time," center Mike
Brewster said.
Even so, the Buckeyes
dropped two spots in the
Associated Press rankings to
No. 13.

caught by surprise. I think if
I would have would have

would have jumped to the
outside.
'·You've got to learn from
it. I haven't fought for
enough wins."
Although Montoya said
Martin "stopped," in front
of him, Martm didn't think
he had done anything
wrong.
"My first instinct to
answer that question would
be, 'Yeah. I stopped compared to how fast his
car was going;'" Martin
said. "I don't think I
stopped, stopped. Maybe it
looked to him like I stopped
based on how fast he had
been.
The race ended under
caution
when
AJ
A\lmendinger spun on the
frontstretch as the leaders
began their final lap.
NASCAR
waited
for
Allmendinger to get his car
off the track and was slow
to throw the yellow flag
because officials were hoping to let the finish play out.
Instead, Martin, Montoya
and Hamlin closed quickly
on Allmendinger's disabled
vehicle, making for a chaotic final moment that could
have led to wrecked race

cars.
Hamlin slipped past
Montoya for second-place
as the three cars split
Allmendinger on the way to
the finish line.
'"I think they should have
waited until they did to
throw the yellow because it
could have cleared itself,
and then they wouldn't have
spoiled the finish,'' Martin
said, defending NASAR 's
delay m calling cautipn.
"They do the best they can,
and they're really strong
and pro fan."
Johnson finished fourth
and was followed by Kyle
Busch, who missed making
the Chase by just eight
points.
Afterward,
NASCAR said the left front
of his car was too low in
post-race inspection, and he
could be penalized this
week.
Kurt Busch was sixth and
followed by Ryan Newman,
Elliott Sadler, defending
race winner Greg Biffle and
Clint Bowyer.
It was a decent day for
almost all the Chase drivers,
who need a strong race in
the 10-race title hunt to set
the pace for the championship battle. Since its 2004
inception. only one driver,
Johnson in 2006. finished
lower than sixth at New
Hampshire and still won the
title.

That's bad news for
Kasey Kahne, who lost his
motor early and finished
39th. He was posting to his
Twitter account about his
crummy day from his airplane as he prepared to
head home before the
halfway point of the race.
After just one race, ·
Kahne is last in the 12-driver field and 161 points
behind Martin, the leader.

It put Martin out front at
the end, in position to spoil
what was shaping up to be a
blockbuster
day
for
Montoya. ·
Making his 1OOtli career
start on his 34th birthday,
Montoya won the pole in
record-breaking speed and
led every practice session
while setting the stage for
just his second career Sprint
Cup Series victory.
Instead, he found himself
slicing through the field at
the end of the race. He went
from fifth to second on a
restrut with 13 laps to go,
and was on the inside· of
Martin on the restart with
three laps to go.
They battled door-to-door
for the ftrst lap, and Martin
fihally slid in front of
Montoya as they crossed the
start-finish line. They ran
bumper-to-bumper through
the first turn, and .Martin
appeared to slow just a bit
as they headed for Turn 2.

Denver defense leads Broncos past Browns, 27-6 Benuals fend on Packers
DENVER (AP) - The Denver
Broncos didn't need a miracle finish to
beat the Cleveland Browns - just a
defense that's gone from deplorable to
dominant.
Pass-rusher Elvis Dumervil tied a
franchise record with four sacks - all
in the second half - and linebacker
Andra Davis had 10 tackles against his
old team in leading Denver to a 27-6
win Sunday.
Dumervil also forced a fumble as the
Broncos (2-0) caused three turnovers
and bottled up Brady Quinn.
• "Man, that was amazing. You don't
see a guy get four sacks in one half,"
Davis marveled. "He really turned it
on."
The entire defense did, limiting the
Browns, who have scored just one
touchdown in their last 33 quarters, to
200 yards of offense, just 56 of that on
the ground.
The Broncos, who beat Cincinnati
last week on Brandon Stokley's 87yard touchdown catch with 11 seconds
left, are unbeaten under new coach
Josh McDaniels, who worked with
Browns coach Eric Mangini in New
England. Mangini's new team is 0-2.
Despite appearances, Dumervil said
he's still a work in progress in the
Broncos' new 3-4 scheme.
"Yeah, I guess I'm a linebacker
now," he said. "It's fun, though. I get to
play linebacker and I still get to do
what I love - rush the passer. I've
found my niche .... It makes me a complete player."
Dumervil said he has a long way to
go to feel comfortable in the 3-4, but
it's proving the perfect fit for this
unorthodox player who has long arms
for a man who stands just 5-11, as Pro
Bowl tackle Joe Thomas saw over and
bver Sunday.
"You are reaching for him but he can
get his hands on you first and he's got
leverage and he can get underneath
you and just push you back to the quarterback," McDaniels said. "His skills
set is pretty much alone in this league."
So, Dumervil often finds himself
standing over a crumpled quarterback
with a big lineman sprawled out
behind him.
"I've been going through it all my
life," Dumervil said. "It's easy for me.
f have instant leverage, I guess.''
; Quinn finished 18 of 31 for 161
yards and an interception on his final
toss.
"They're tough," Quinn said.
"Across the board they have a lot of
talent. Schematically, they do a good
job game-planning."
: Denver quarterback Kyle Orton,
who completed 19 of 37 passes for 263
yards and a touchdown, was having
another ordinary day until he hit Jabar
Gaffney with a 49-yard pass that led to

Cleveland Browns' Brady Quinn (1 0) is sacked by Denver Broncos' Elvis
Dumervil (92) during the fourth quarter of a NFL football game on Sunday in
Denver. Denver beat Cleveland 27-6.

Peyton Hillis' 2-yard TD run early in
the fourth quarter.
That broke open a 13-6 game and
atoned for Hillis' lost fumble on the
opening kickoff.
Running back Correll Buckhalter
then broke free for a 45-yard touchdown rumble that made it 27-6.
Asked if he was tempted to bench
Quinn, who's been sacked nine times
already, in favor of Derek Anderson,
Mangini said: "What I'm looking to do
is play better across the board."
"The offense had nothing to do with
the two long defensive plays,"
Mangini said of Gaffney's big catch
and Buckhalter's big run. "That's a risk
you take when you blitz."
Before the Broncos' offense picked
up steam, the crowd booed Orton for
some badly thrown passes on a windy
day at Invesco Field and jeered kicker
Matt Prater, who missed from 37 and
39 yards but was good from 23 and 38.
The defense was the only unit that
wasn't erratic. In two games, the
Broncos have allowed just one touchdown.
Providing the early spark Sunday
was Davis, who had eagerly awaited
facing the team that let him go after

seven seasons without so much as a
goodbye from its new coach.
When the Browns didn't make him
an offer, Davis signed a two-yem· deal
with the Broncos, who spent the offseason revamping a deplorable defense
that ranked at or near the bottom in
every major category last season and
surrendered .448 points.
Davis recorded seven solo tackles
and two assists in the first half.
"Andra showed up a bunch today,"
McDaniels said.
"Ah, man. That's one guy I thought
had a great game," Dumervil said. "I
think the four sacks kind of overshadowed it a little bit, but my MVP is 'Ore
Davis. He's been our emotional leader
since he came on board."
NOTES: The Broncos led 10-6 at
halftime, when former TE Shannon
Sharpe, who skydived into the stadium
as part of a tandem parachute jump,
was tearfully inducted into the team's
Ring of Honor. .. . Broncos WR
Brandon Marshall had three catches
for 34 yards and a holding penalty ....
Buckhalter had 76 yards on nine carries .... Dumervil 's four sacks tied the
mark held by several others, most
recently Simon Fletcher in 1990.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP)
- Watching the clock about
to tick down to 0:02, Aaron
Rodgers took the snap, faked
a sp1ke and looked to the end
zone.
For a split second, it looked
like the Cincinnati Bengals
were about to blow their second last-minute lead in as
many weeks - and Rodgers
was about to pull off his second late comeback of the season.
But the Bengals ( 1-1 ) were
bailed out by a false-start
penalty and barely salvaged a
31-24 vict01y over the Gr~en
Bay Packers at Lambeau
Field on Sunday.
"We didn't do enough to
win the game last week and
you get what you deserve,"
Bengals coach Marvin Lewis
said. ''Today, we were able to
make one or two more plays
and win the football game and
that's what counts. I think our
football team understands
that."
One week after a gutwrenching last-minute loss to
Denver on a deflected pass
that went for a touchdown in
their opener, the Bengals
nearl}' outdid themselves by
blowmg a I0-point lead in the
final nunute Sunday.
The Packers ( 1-1) kicked a
late field goal to cut the lead
to a touchdown. then recovered an onside kick.
"The crowd cheered and I
was like, 'Come on, now,"'
linebacker Rey Maualuga
said. "It W!lS kind of deja vu
all over again. But with the
defense out there, everyone
holding their ground, we did a
great job."
Rodgers then marched the
Packers to the Cincinnati 10yard line with the clock running down, but Green Bay
was called for the false start to
end the game. Packers coach
Mike McCarthy said officials
told him the call was on wide
receiver Greg Jennings.
"I was su~rised by that, to
say the :east.' McCarthy said.
The Bengals were cruising
to a win until then, breaking a
21-all tie when Chad
Ochocinco caught a 13-yard
TD pass from Carson Palmer
in the third quarter and delivered on his promise to perform a ''Lambeau leap.''
Ochocinco ran toward the
stands and spotted a small
group of fans in Bengals
orange in the front row near
the end zone, then leaped into

them- just like players from
the home team do after they
score.
·:It was fun," Ochocinco
said. "I had a little indecision
on where to jump at first. J
didn't want to disrespect their
tradition, so I was asking as I
went along the line. I saw
some Bengals fans that sai~
was OK."
Defensive end Antwa
Odom tied a single-game
team mark with five sacks,
four of which came after
Packers left tackle Chad
Clifton injured his ankle and
was carted off early in the
third qumter.
Pass protection also was an
issue in the Packers' Week 1
victory over Chicago.
"He's a good player,"
Packers quarterback Aaron
Rodgers said. "But we've got
to protect better, myself
included."
Rodgers couldn't pull off
another comeback after beating the Bears on a late touchdown pass to Jennings last
Sunday. Rodgers was 21 of
39 for 261 yards and a touchdown and Jennings was held
without a catch.
Cedric Benson rushed for
141 yards for the Bengals,
and wondered afterward if the
Packers came into Sunday's
game overconfident.
•
"Maybe a little, but y
can't blame them," Benso
said. "They beat a very stout
Bears team last week at
home and I think they were
feeling pretty good. But
we're men on this side of the
football as well."
Palmer was 15 of 23 for
I 85 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions,
both by Green Bay's Charles
Woodson. Woodson returned
one 37 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter.
But that was about the
only highlight of a disappointing day for the
Packers' defense.
"For whatever reason, it
wasn't there," Woodson said.
"We just couldn't get stops."
Palmer blamed himself for
the interceptions, and said he
had confidence in the
defense in the final minute.
"I kind of felt like it couldn't happen acain," Palmer
said. "It wasnlf't a feeling of
'here we go again' at all.
know our defense is t
good. They have too mu
pride and weren't going to let
that happen again."
