Catfish Bob Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 TJ- If Palmer played anywhere else we would be talking about him like we talk about Drew Bress or Tom Brady. Interesting short interview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tigre Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 If Touraj had played anywhere else, he would have been a forgotten UDFA who happened to play with Chad at Oregon State. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saphead Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 Tell us what other worse things got 'covered up' TJ, I'd like to hear that. Otherwise STFU. And sweet pony tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saphead Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 So evidently if Carson gets drafted to another team he's magically a HOF'er. But no mention of that slight restructuring of his knee in January of 06'. Hmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the knee was what did Carson in, I think it was the shoulder injury that turned Ryan Fitzpatrick into a household name. Palmer never had surgery on it and although he had some decent seasons, he never had quite the same velocity on his throws. He wasn't very mobile even before the knee. His best rushing season was 93 yards and that was after then knee injury, the next best was a mere 50 in 16 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_C_Deadpeople Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 Butterfly effect - you can mention the same thing about any player or person or play for that matter. Change one part of the past you can never predict what the end result would have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_C_Deadpeople Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 I always liked this Dennis Miller bit on the Butterfly effect: You know, I may pretend not to care about what happens thousands of miles away in a place I'll probably never see. But I know that all of life is deeply interconnected and interdependent in a symbiotic, primal dance. That a butterfly beating its wings in the African bush can dislodge a particle of dust that makes a monkey sneeze, which startles a herd of gazelle into stampeding, causing a rockslide down a hill which dams up a stream and floods it, creating moisture which evaporates and cools the air, which rushes into the hot air above it, becoming a cyclone, which whirls out to sea and joins up with other storm clouds, forming an enormous raging squall that travels thousands of miles across the ocean, disrupting electromagnetic fields and making my cell phone cut out. Fuckin' butterflies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was never really quite the same after. He still put up some impressive numbers but his accuracy was never the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengals7833 Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 I think the two injuries didn’t help anything but my biggest issue with Palmer was mental. He seemed to choke and plays his worst at big moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be forgetting Carson throwing 4 INTS and fumbling twice in the NFC Championship game. Or that 2009 WC game against the Jets, one of the most lackluster performances I've ever seen. Say what you want about Dalton but he doesn't give up or quit the team & flee town because he found some garbage on his lawn. Palmer is either a sleezy lying scumbag about why he really left (my suspicion) or he's one of the sorriest limp-dicked manginas to ever wear a Bengals uniform. Take your pick.

We had a very good team but invincible? The team got 35 points scored on it at home by the 5 win Bills week 16, 17 in the final quarter. Remember Carson’s pick 6 late in the game? Very Marviesque finding ways to piss won games away. The defense was bad that year. Kelly Holcomb lit us up that game. Don’t get me wrong, the team was fun offensively and I finally thought we were going to make a 3 or 4 year run of greatness. Shit it was only Carson’s second season as a starter. Fuck the Stealers.
