Bengals will face another No. 3 QB

With Alex Smith out and Trent Dilfer having suffered a concussion in the 49ers' loss Sunday to the Vikings, San Francisco might have to turn to its No. 3 quarterback, Shaun Hill.

The Bengals will play Saturday night at Monster Park against the 49ers.

Hill, whose bulk of pro experience came with the Amsterdam Admirals of NFL Europe in 2003, played well Sunday in relief of Dilfer.

Hill looks to be a little more skilled than Brock Berlin, the Rams No. 3 quarterback the Bengals faced Sunday in their 19-10 victory. Hill was 22-for-28 passing for 180 yards and one touchdown in a little more than a half of play against Minnesota. His passer rating was 90.5.

Bengals Beware! The Rams were only one big play away from beating the Bengals. The 49ers are in better physical shape than the Rams were. If Palmer doesn't figure out pretty soon that he is "not fine" per Lewis, it will be another big "L". It was good to see the Bengals gang-tackle for a change.

I'm a Northern Cal resident and Bengal fan. If the Bengals don't beat SF they should give up a games pay!!!
