After being down 21-6 last week, we kind of got off kilter a little bit, so we don't get as many of those things off. He will continue to be in there on all downs, he just has to keep playing and do better at everything he's doing." |

I don't know anybody here who wants to be a backup. Everybody wants to be a starter and perform well. Yeah, this is what I wanted." He added, "I'm just the starting running back for the Bengals on opening day. I don't think I'm any better than the guys behind me or anything like that; I'm still looking in my rear-view mirror.

He feels good about it and he's exhibiting that on the practice field as well, not only in the games he's played but in the way he's practiced." |

| March 19, 2008 Chris Perry will participate in the Cincinnati Bengals offseason program according to Bengals.com.

His litany of NFL injuries are almost beyond belief, starting with the sports hernia that wiped out all but two games of his rookie year and the ankle that has eliminated the last 21 games of his third and fourth seasons. |
