Cincinnati, OH (Sports Network) - It was not a pleasant homecoming for Carson
Palmer.
And his successor has his team back in the AFC playoff hunt.
Andy Dalton threw three touchdown passes and outperformed Palmer in the
Cincinnati Bengals' 34-10 win over the Oakland Raiders.
Dalton, who replaced Palmer at quarterback a year ago following his ugly split
with Cincinnati, threw for 210 yards -- both to Mohamed Sanu -- on 16-of-30
attempts for the Bengals (6-5), who have won three straight games.
Palmer, a seven-year Bengal, was booed vehemently on Oakland's first offensive
possession. He finished 19-of-34 for 146 yards with a touchdown and an
interception for the Raiders (3-8), who have dropped four consecutive contests
for the first time since 2008.
