Kelly, Thornton doubtful
The Bengals head to Baltimore for the late Sunday game with several key players listed as doubtful. Among them are starting tight end Reggie Kelly, defensive tackle John Thornton, linebacker Anthony Schlegel and safety Herana-Daze Jones, the leading special teams tackler with 15.
Running back Chris Perry, though he started practicing this week, remains on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list, and for him to play would require the Bengals to make a roster move and reinstate Perry to the 53-man roster.
Coach Marvin Lewis said wide receiver Chad Johnson had a good week and will start.
For the Ravens, three key defensive starters in linebacker Terrell Suggs, safety Ed Reed and cornerback Chris McAlister are questionable. Tight end Todd Heap is probable.
If several of these important players on both teams are unable to play, the game will become a competition of backups.

Could the Bengals be any more injured? At least UC playing this weekend.
what is RS (Figurs) ?
Anyboday knows why Robinson instead of Frostee the snowman?
so does that mean Perry is a go?
Well let's see!
The Ravens have no offense but the Bengals have no defense!
Looks like the key to the game is how the Cincinnati offense performs against the Baltimore Defense.
Baltimore's defense looked bad on Monday and easy to pass on, Carson has a good day and the Bengals should come away with a 21-7 Win.
Any chance that the Bengals go after Simeon Rice now that he has been released by the Broncos? He can't be any worst than the stiffs the Bengals have now right?
Put Simeon Rice's left foot in a bucket full of cement, let the cement set, and you'd still have a faster player than the average Bengal defender.
