Recommendation: Palmer misfired a few times early when the Bengals were driving, forcing them to either settle for a field goal or even punt the ball away. However, he did do a good job of not forcing any passes that led to interceptions - as it turns out, the Bengals' lack of turnovers was a huge factor in the game.

Advice: Palmer struggled to hit some open receivers, but he was facing one of the better defenses in football. He should bounce back against the Bengals' upcoming stretch of weak opponents, and he may have to with Cedric Benson nursing an injury.
