Redskins-Bengals<\/o:p><\/h3>\n

Associated Press <\/o:p><\/h4>\n

Bengals QB Carson Palmer will be on the sideline Sunday
\nnight when the Bengals play their preseason opener against the Washington
\nRedskins, a team with far less pressing matters at hand. Only seven months
\nafter his reconstructive knee surgery, Palmer isn\u2019t ready to play. Whether he
\nwill be ready for the season opener remains anyone\u2019s guess, lending weight to
\nAnthony Wright\u2019s debut as the starting quarterback. His performance during the
\nfirst two weeks of training camp earned him the chance to start Sunday.\u00a0 <\/span>His play so far has won him the first shot at
\nthe No. 2 job \u2013 which could turn into the No. 1 job if Palmer isn\u2019t ready for
\nthe season opener. Doug Johnson and rookie Erik Meyer will get to run the
\noffense after Wright takes his turn against the Redskins. While the Bengals get
\naccustomed to a new quarterback, the Redskins will get their first experience
\nwith someone other than coach<\/span> Joe Gibbs calling the
\nplays. Gibbs has turned the offense over to assistant Al Saunders, who is
\nexpected to open it up during the season. In the first preseason game, it may
\nnot look a whole lot different. Most teams show little of what they\u2019ll do once
\nthe games start to count. Brunell is expected to play about a quarter. Then,
\nnewcomer Todd Collins and quarterback-of-the-future Jason Campbell will launch
\ntheir competition for the No. 2 job. Collins will play the second quarter, and Campbell<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>
\nwill finish the game. They\u2019ll switch roles in the second preseason game. Campbell<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>
\ndidn\u2019t get onto the field as a rookie last year, when he was a first-round
\npick, learning by watching. Now, he gets to show how much he has picked up from
\nthe sideline. <\/p>\n

Mercury News<\/h4>\n

Todd Collins will be first off the bench when starter Mark
\nBrunell leaves the game, Gibbs said. Don\u2019t read much into it. Collins is first
\nin this week because Jason Campbell got that honor last week. Collins spent the
\npast five seasons with Redskins assistant coach Al Saunders in Kansas
\nCity<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> and is familiar with his system, often sharing
\nhis knowledge in quarterback meetings, Gibbs said. n their preseason meeting
\nlast Aug. 19, the Bengals defeated the Redskins 24-17 at FedEx Field with the
\nhelp of two second-quarter interceptions of Patrick Ramsey.<\/o:p><\/p>\n

Cincinnati<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> Post<\/h4>\n

The entire 2006 home schedule, including the preseason
\ngames against Washington<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> and Green
\nBay<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>, is sold out at Paul Brown Stadium, which holds
\n65,500. It\u2019s the first time since the stadium opened in 2000 that the entire
\nhome schedule sold out in advance of the season. The offseason has seen
\nconjecture and progress reports regarding Palmer\u2019s rehabilitation and return to
\nthe field, as well as multiple off-the-field incidents that have included five
\nplayers being arrested and one player under suspension for the first four games
\nof the upcoming regular season. In the midst of all that, head coach Marvin
\nLewis has attempted to keep the focus on leaving 2005 in the past so that it
\ncan be better in 2006. The Bengals went 11-5 and won the AFC North title last
\nseason. It was their first winning season and the franchise\u2019s first division
\nchampionship since 1990. An estimated crowd of 18,700 people showed up last
\nweekend for an intrasquad<\/span> scrimmage and mock game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
