Carson Palmer's shoulder bore a nasty red scrape. Blood trickled from an inch-long gash on the bridge of Willie Anderson's nose. Chad Johnson wore a bandage above his skinned knee.
These Bengals were beaten up, but still unbeaten.
The Bengals improved to 4-0 for the first time since 1988 -- the last they made the Super Bowl -- with a 16-10 victory Sunday over the Houston Texans, who couldn't take advantage of their penalties or their pain.
"Everybody was going with some type of injury," said Anderson, a Pro Bowl right tackle who threw his back out before the kickoff and hurt his nose during the game. "That's the type of character this team has now."
