Phillip Rivers versus Oakland. The Raiders pass defense is actually one of their strengths, but big time CB, Nnamdi Asomugha, will miss the game with an injury however he says he’ll heal before week 1.

Carson Palmer versus the Broncos. Nothing has gone down in the off-season to the Broncos will be at all improved when it comes to defense in 2009. On the other hand, the Bengals possess a solid offense and presently have Carson Palmer back, who missed most of the 2008 season with an injury.
The acquisition of Laveranues Coles gives the Bengals a great trio of WRs, and Chad Ochocinco is encouraged once again. Look for a huge day out of Palmer with 250 yards and two to three TDs.
Joe Flacco against Kansas City Chiefs. While Baltimore’s projected to be a bit more of a running offense this year, the Chiefs are weak defensively.
