Still in the first quarter

I just wanted to point out that the last time I covered Chad Johnson, he beat a horse in a running race. Landry looked like a unbroken colt on that TD play.

Fumble No. 3 for the Ravens. Don't the Bengals have a reputation for creating turnovers?

Still 6-0 Bengals.

FYI: Willie Anderson is out, but could return. There is no new injury. It was never planned he would play every down.

It's good:
Shayne Graham juuuust squeezed that ball through the goal posts to complete a seven-play, 48-yard drive with a 23-yard field goal (apparently his hip isn't that sore). If you're keeping score at home, the Bengals are averaging a field goal for every Ravens turnover. 9-0 Bengals.

Could have been worse: TJH just got waylaid by Ed Reed. The Ravens safety, though, was dangerously close to intercepting that ball and taking it to the end zone. Still 9-0 Bengals. 1:30 to go in what's turning into a very long first quarter. Feel free to get up and go to the bathroom. I know it's been a long time to sit in front of your computer.

Mercifully it just ended at 7:58 after McGahee's 11-yard run.

Is there anyone else watching on the ESPN GameCast? I don't have cable & couldn't leave my kids to go to a sports bar tonight. From watching the GameCast it looks as though the Ravens have figured out the Bengals D.
