Palmer's Elbow

He is 3rd in the league with attempts. If his arm was ruined, I'm sure this would not happen. It's the offense, and his poor decision making.

Palmer is a good QB within a certain system with certain receivers. Those recievers are gone and the OC has gotten outcoached since 2005.

Replace the OC get rid of or change the WR's and Palmer will be a different QB. Not great but good. He was never a great QB.

I wonder how he would be under the west coast offense????????

I also wonder how he would be without the 2 divas at WR, and the one who has yet to figure out how to run the right route. I think they need to build the WR corp around Shipley now. Get a good speed reciever, and not one who would rather tweet then catch balls

Fuuny, because I could have swore he made 2 Pro Bowls (including a Pro Bowl MVP) had a couple of 4,000 yard seasons, LED THE NFL IN TD'S AND COMPLETION PERCENTAGE IN 2005, finished 2nd in TD's (behind Manning) in 2006....Make no mistake, he WAS a Great QB in '05 and '06......He may not be now, but he was...

That's fine. He was great in 2005. He also had 2 of the best WR's in the NFL at the time in CJ and TJ. Right now we just want him to be ok, or better yet, just win.

Funny how that win against the Ravens seems so meaningless now huh ??

That was suppose to be how the Bengals showed they could beat a Super Bowl contender after getting their butt handed to them the week before.

Then they follow that up with multiple bites of the sh*t sandwich.

I hope Carson and company can figure things out, but even if they do, it won't matter this season.

It would be nice to see them string together some wins against some of these teams though.

No doubt!!!!

With that said that article on bengals.com, with Bobbie Williams saying that there has not been enough attitude so far. The attitude comes and goes. REALLY, i mean they couldnt figure this out a couple of games ago? Who the hell is the leader of this team, whos the guy who gets in eveyones face and demands attitude, and greatness? Is there even a guy here can do that? So far it seems that everyone is soft spoken, and wont speak up. Why has there not been a players only meeting to see if everyone can figure out a way to win these games. Even if it dosnt work at least they tried something.

Also its not like this team is getting blown out, as bad as they may look they are only losing by a touchdown or less, hell they even have the lead, but end of losing. These guys have to find a way to finish these games, and thats what they need to work on. I just hope somebody soon takes the leadership role.

I probably agree with you, Pimp, but I feel like being a douche contrarian. Palmer fumbled 13 times in 2006.

I'll give you the 13 fumbles in '06....But that was him still being tentative after his knee injury...I mean he's never fumbled more than 4 times in any other season....'06 was still a great year though

.... and his off throws

.... and the playcalling

.... and the dropped passes

.... and the protection

.... excuses, escuses, excuses

Point blank, Palmer's elbow is fine - He is not. We need to make due with what we have. He should NOT be playing the way he's playing. Players hit slumps. He needs to find a way out of this slump if he wants a job in the NFL.

Get a good speed receiver for what, so Palmer can underthrow him. I will never figure out why some people continue to blame everything but Palmer. Palmer has been one of the lucky quarterbacks in the league to have been under the same offensive coordinator(OC) the whole time he has been in the league. Get a new OC next year and when he sucks you Palmer apologist will say he's adjusting to the new OC that's why he sucks right now. No , Palmer sucks unless we are down by 21 points at halftime and the opposing defense starts to get relaxed with their coverage. The Bengals will never win anything(Playoff games) with Palmer at the helm, once they realize that we can move on and start making progress. We all know the reason we went to the playoffs last year and it was more because Palmer was reinvented into Trent Dilfer than him carrying us. Once we go back to depending on Palmer to win games you have seen the result. The Palmer brothers have to go, take their tired act somewhere else. Who in the hell really believes that Palmer lite is capable of doing anything in a real game if he got in? The Bengals need to stop questioning our intelligence.
