Welcome to Gameday: Raiders at Bengals

Who: Oakland Raiders vs Cincinnati Bengals

Where: Paul Brown Stadium, Cincinnati Ohio

When: 10:00am Pacific Standard Time

TV: CBS TV

Carson Palmer makes his first trip back to the place where he spent the first eight years of his career. The Bengals chose him with the first overall pick in the 2004 draft as the man to save the struggling franchise. He twice led them to the playoffs after they hadn't had a winning record in over 20 years and made two trips to the Pro Bowl as well. But the dysfunctional organization took its toll on him and he demanded a trade.

The fans in Cincinnati feel betrayed by him and they will no doubt show their discontent when he takes their field for the first time in Silver and Black.

There is also a feeling among Bengals fans that they are better off without Palmer. They have Andy Dalton as their new quarterback and he has been more than they could have hoped for in just his second season with the team. Dalton also has a star receiver in AJ Green to catch his passes and a solid defense to keep the Bengals in the game.
