Bengals edge Colts 30-28 in preseason finale

Anonymous Washington Times-Herald The Washington Times-Herald Fri Sep 03, 2010, 10:03 AM EDT

Indianapolis — Jordan Palmer completed 10 of 14 passes for 115 yards and two touchdowns for the Bengals (3-2). Starting quarterback Carson Palmer played for one possession, which netted a field goal.

Coach Marvin Lewis said his mission was accomplished.

"To sum it up, we had an opportunity to look at the guys that we wanted to look at," he said. "It was a close game throughout, and everytime the Colts were able to score, we went back and answered, which was a good thing. I think the only negative that I'd like to clean up was on special teams."

Colts quarterback Peyton Manning didn't play, and most of Indy's starters took the night off. Curtis Painter got the start and completed nine of 20 passes for 114 yards. Backup Tom Brandstater completed 10 of 18 passes for 177 yards and three touchdowns, all to rookie Brandon James.

It's the sixth winless preseason in Colts history. They last failed to win a preseason game in 2005, then finished with the league's best record in the regular season.
