The Bengals have recently signed the prima dona, past his prime, headcase of a receiver in Terrell Owens to pit him next to his clone, Chad Joh… I mean Ochocinco. A lot of people have heralded this tandem to be the best one-two receiver punch in the NFL. That seems to be a bold statement considering Owens’ lack of production as a Buffalo Bill. Maybe he just needed a quality quarterback to jump start him. That is certainly what he’ll get here. Carson Palmer knows a thing or two about playing football. He should be able to dole out enough balls to keep both of these guys happy.
Running back Cedric Benson was a pleasant surprise last year. It is going to be interesting to see how he plays this year. They will need him to produce when Chad and T.O. are being covered and not producing.
The Bengals have a good chance of winning the division. The Ravens are the team that stands in the way, but don’t be surprised if the Bengals pull it off. In the end, I believe they finish the year at 10-6 once more.

Lots of trouble — or mucho peligro, as Chad Ochocinco might say — could be headed the Lions’ way.
After Cincinnati’s anemic aerial showing Sunday against Cleveland, the Bengals’ top receiver practically threatened a full-scale passing attack against the Lions’ weak secondary.
Ochocinco caught three passes for 38 yards, and Carson Palmer passed for only 110 yards while the Bengals rushed for 210 yards in a 16-7 win over the Browns. Ochocinco, who leads Cincinnati in receiving with 773 yards and five touchdowns, said he wanted a different offensive focus against the Lions on Sunday.
“Now, next week, things are going to have to change,” he told the Cincinnati Enquirer. “The roles need to be reversed. I’m speaking on behalf of myself and the receiving corps. We would like to throw the ball 50 times. I just want to relay that message.”
After Sunday, Cincinnati ranked only 21st in passing offense. But the Lions’ secondary has struggled even against weak passing teams such as Cleveland and has given up big plays consistently.”
