We're in Canton this weekend for the Bengals Hall of Fame game against the Cowboys. The Bengals players I talked to this week all seemed to be keyed up for the weekend. They are well aware of the significance of the weekend to pro football. This is the first time veteran Bobbie Williams has played in the game and he was really looking forward to seeing the hall and the history of the game. He and his mates are also looking forward to hitting other players besides their own. Here's what I'll be looking forward to seeing in Sunday night's game:
1. Chad and T.O. getting open.
2. Adam Jones in action, on defense and punt returns
3. The tight ends. Gresham and Chase Coffman should be seeing a fair amount of action. Coffman has been under the radar in this camp and if he has the blocking down, he could be a big help.
4. The play of the defensive line. There are some real battles for spots on that line.
5. Ditto for the rest of the wide receivers. Jerome Simpson has stood out at almost every practice I've seen. Can he stand out in a game?
6. Last but not least, the accuracy of Carson Palmer. We all know how poorly things looked in the passing game at the end of last season.
