07:54 AM ET 08.11 | Rather than worry about what could go wrong, Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer appears to have his sights set on what the offense can do with the "All-Diva" receiving corps of Terrell Owens, Chad Ochocinco and Antonio Bryant. Palmer is happy mostly because the Bengals have the kind of weapons to make their passing game legit once again. By the end of last season, the Bengals' passing game was neutered by injuries and inconsistent play from everyone except Ochocinco. "The defense would roll three people to Chad's side and we were done," said Palmer, who led the Bengals to the playoffs for the first time since 2005.

Hope he is 100% recovered this season. His arm looked really tired last year - the shoulder had to be bothering him.
If he is healthy, the Bengals can go far... very far!

Keeping those weapons pointed at the enemy will be the challenge. I don't see how they can spread the ball around enough to keep all three happy and still have any kind of a running game.

The Bengals could make a run this year and their offense should be greatly improved.

He's hoping he'll blow out his knee before either Mushmooth or Ocho Psycho throws him under that bus.

As long as the receivers play, the bengals can go far. If T.O. starts having alligator arms again, then trouble could be brewing.

Rumor here in Cinci is that Antonio Bryant may never play again. The knee is worse than they thought and they are hung for 7 million. Its a good thing Palmer loves Shipley so much. Most likely it will be Ocho, Owens, and Shipley.

I know it was only the first roll of preseason, but judging from the first ten minutes of the game Sunday night, Bengal fans shouldn't get their hopes up yet.

You got it. That offense is very suspect. Again. Palmer is a big question mark. He is not the same player he was before the injury.
