Mon, 2 Oct 2006 22:35:32 -0700
Mark Curnutte, of the Cincinnati Enquirer, reports Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis said he noticed a difference on the field during Week 4 with WR Chris Henry deactivated before the team's game. "I did notice a difference, actually," Lewis said. "I didn't have anybody taunting, in anybody's face or anything like that. That's where I noticed the difference: Guys doing it the way they're asked to do it. I didn't have to worry about the guy taking off his helmet on the field and things like that. That's the key thing. And again, as you asked about the other thing, it's the respect to the league and what the rules are on the field, and that I didn't have to worry about yesterday. And those are things we've got to continually get straight all the time, because I've got to know who I can count on and when I can count on them."
