The Bengals aren't as bad as their record. They're more like the Cowboys of the AFC, just an underachieving team. They've been in every game so far this season, they just can't win with Palmer being as terrible as he's been. I don't think it's something physical. His throws seem fine, they're just really dumb throws. He's constantly throwing into coverage.

I went out on a ledge and picked the Bengals in the OS Suicide Pool. Hopefully they can pull this one out.

Not going to make any predictions, but with a week off, this is the type of game that I could see the Bengals pulling out of their a$$ just as everyone is counting them out. If nothing else, they have been incredibly resilient the past few years.

I like what the Falcons are doing, especially in the Dome. They should handle the Bengals, but the past few games, they have gotten off to horrifically slow starts and let teams that they should bully hang around. They are down Dunta which can't be overlooked. It's going to come down to how good their pass rush is, which is part of what did them in in Philly last week.

Should be a good game.

I agree on he's made some really dumb decisions at times but his receivers haven't helped either. I think sometimes he forces balls to TO and Chad into double and triple-coverage just to keep them happy. Something just isn't right though. Aren't you supposed to get better with more experience? Why does Palmer seem like he's gotten worse?

He doesn't seem to be able to throw the deep ball anymore. He hurt his elbow a couple of years ago when he smacked his arm on an opponents helmet on the follow-through of a pass. Missed most of the rest of that season. He's supposedly healed up but I don't think he has fully.

So much for the Falcons' slow start.

This is pretty bad. We literally cannot do anything good right now. (penalties, passing miscommunication, o-line breakdown, can't defend the pass, can't tackle/do anything about the run, etc.)
