The 4 o'clock meeting

I've been told that every Bengals player attended the 4 p.m. team meeting. It was called last night by coach Marvin Lewis, after the 34-13 loss to New England.

Players met with Lewis, their respective coordinators and position coaches. They watched film of the game. Players who needed medical treatment received it. Some players exercised to burn off muscle soreness from the game.

The point of the day was to move past the New England game and get onto the practices Wednesday and Thursday before the three-day bye weekend.
