ESPN just reported that Palmer will miss Sunday's game against the Steelers.  http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3641482.

Brace yourselves, Bengals fans, for more of the same ineptitude on Offense.  It tough to see how a Fitzpatrick-led offense (sans running game) is going to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers.  That said, this will be the first week that Fitzpatrick will prepare for a game knowing he is the starter. 

And I actually thought the season could not get uglier.  Silly me!
