The Lions will be out tonight looking to set a winning tone for their upcoming season while the Bengals will be merely going through the motions. Get it down on Detroit at home vs Cincinnati.
The Bengals are a very solid team but being that this is the first preseason game don't expect to see too much of Carson Palmer, TJ Houshmandzadeh and the Johnson's, Rudi and Chad. Cincy will go through the motions, get a little feel and then the starters will rest.
The Detroit Lions are a team used to losing but expect them to put up a fight in the preseason and change that attitude. Jon Kitna has already come out and said that this team can win 10 games and maybe he's included the preseason schedule in that prediction. The Lions will have a good offense and expect their second and third units to compete hard. With Kevin Jones hurting look for Tatum Bell and TJ Duckett to really show that they can play.
A lot of jobs are up for grabs on the Detroit defense and look for a big game from the unit. At home in a game that doesn't mean anything to a Super Bowl contender means I'll take the mighty Detroit Lions.
Free Pick: Lions -3 (even)
