gregstephens Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 http://www.bengals.com/news/news.asp?story_id=7183I know no one in the camp is officially saying this and the story is mostly others making conjecture, but we need to face the very real possibility that Fitz is the man. Quote
Kazkal Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 I rather have Fitz be the man this season to make sure carsonhas more time to recover and doesn't get any more injured behind our horrible Oline.Plus it means we tank more games and more of a chance to hit our goal of 0-16 Quote
HoosierCat Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 Personally, I wrote Palmer off last week. No surprise here. Quote
Ox Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 Chad sounds like he knows he's out the door after this year. He said "For 9, he has next year."Bet there won't be two 1 rounder's this time though. Quote
preyer Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 why doesn't fitz demand a new photo of himself? his head looks like a damn peanut. Quote
HoosierCat Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 why doesn't fitz demand a new photo of himself? his head looks like a damn peanut.Appropriate considering the way he's getting shelled behind our line... Quote

volcom69 Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 They lost out for there #1 with Chad this year and who knows what happens in the offseason with him and TJ makes you wonder next year how bad this offense is going to be again, They better decide what they are going to do here before its to late.

gregstephens Posted October 15, 2008 Author Report Posted October 15, 2008 I hate to sound bleak here, but it is the Bengals. If that elbow doesn't start healing, and they can't rule out the Tommy John by next year's draft...we may need to start looking at QB options. Quote

If Carson's career gets cut short, look at the luck we've had with first round QB draft picks. Tebow might want to consider coming back for that Senior Year. Quote
icehole3 Posted October 16, 2008 Report Posted October 16, 2008 the Bengals will select whoever wins the Heismann trophy, mark it down. Quote
membengal Posted October 16, 2008 Report Posted October 16, 2008 Personally, I wrote Palmer off last week. No surprise here.+1. This is non-news. Any sane team shuts Palmer down at this point. The only question I have had is what this insane team do. Apparently they will do the right thing.We have a real chance at pulling off an 0-16. Quote
COB Posted October 16, 2008 Report Posted October 16, 2008 They better decide what they are going to do here before its to late.I think they already decided. They're going to be a running team. They also installed the scheme. But they didn't adjust personnel to fit the scheme. Asking Bratkowski to implement a ball control running offense is like putting a plow harness on a trotting horse. He can pull the plow, he just doesn't do it very well. Quote

He can pull the plow, he just doesn't do it very well.For certain there is no medical mystery here and Carson as well as the Bengals, "brain trust", know the treatment options and how long he's got to sit. They're just playing with us now. Hope people, got to feed em hope. Obviously this is a serious injury here and obviously Carson hasn't liked the diagnosis to date. Given how competitive he is and embarrassed for the team's record, I got to believe he's being told to sit out for weeks if not the rest of the season. Remember he got hurt because the Oline stunk up in Jersey. Most of us knew he was going to get knocked out this season, only a case of when and what got broken. Now we know. Quote
Sox Posted October 16, 2008 Report Posted October 16, 2008 Will the 76 Tampa Bay Bucs be there to light cigars if the Bengals win their first game? Quote
