Trivial Matters

Star in Stripes?

Mr. Fixit
The latest step in the process of curing what ails the Bengals came when the team used the top pick in the draft to grab Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Carson Palmer of USC. That made him the fifth quarterback selected by the team in the first round since 1968. Which of the following Cincinnati QBs was not a first-rounder?

a. Ken Anderson
b. Greg Cook
c. David Klingler
d. Jack Thompson

Highly Decorated
Palmer will be only the second Heisman Trophy winner to play for the Bengals. Who was the first? And as a bonus question: Who is the only Heisman Trophy runner-up to play for Cincinnati?

This Week's Matchup
Palmer is to start the season as a backup to Jon Kitna. Match these star quarterbacks with the NFL journeymen they understudied as rookies.

1. Brett Favre
2. Rich Gannon
3. Donovan McNabb
4. Steve McNair

a. Chris Chandler
b. Chris Miller
c. Doug Pederson
d. Wade Wilson

Call to Order
In the best case scenario for the Bengals, Palmer quickly becomes a candidate for the next Pro Bowl. Place these alltime great Bengals in order of the number of times they represented Cincinnati in the Pro Bowl.

a. Isaac Curtis
b. Boomer Esiason
c. Anthony Mu�oz
d. Lemar Parrish
