They came in sixth in scoring defense at 16.8 points a game.
The Bengals lead 28-7 at halftime.
Palmer is 20-for-23 passing for 282 yards and two touchdowns. His passer rating is 146.7. Chad Johnson has seven receptions for 117 (his first 100-yard game of the season. T.J. Houshmandzadeh has six catches for 83 yards.
The defense is doing a solid job. Tailback LaDainian Tomlinson has rushed eight times for 26 yards in the first half.
The Bengals, reversing a trend of the past few games, has had 18:03 in possession time in the first 30 minutes.
