BengalBax Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 Quarterback Carson Palmer spent the second half of Thursday's practice getting treatment for back spasms, but is probable for Sunday's game against the Browns.Any drugs we could slip him that would make them start AGAIN Sunday morning?

ShulaSteakhouse Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 If Levi Jones and Bobbie Williams and Rich Braham played in front of you, you'd be having back spasms too at this point.Maybe Bax would rather have Drew Henson, Vinny Testaverde, Craig Krenzel or Tracey Quinn here instead?Ugh.

schweinhart Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 As one calling for Kitna to come in after the loss to Steelers, I say now I hope Palmer returnes for Browns game. Hopefully, his back spasms will subside.Palmer directly cost the Bengals 9 pts w/ 1 bad pass and a Klingler squirrel dance for a safety in Steelers loss. However, after comments by board members here and a review of game on NFL Network for Game of the Week, the playcalling was questionable in those situations so deep at own end of field.Still, Palmer's play cost the win and the game was important because it was playoff pivotal. A Bengals win there and they were still in the hunt for a wildcard. For Browns, Ratbirds, and Pats, I would like to see Palmer. He is the now and future QB for franchise. These games are important for his continued development. The only game that Palmer has cost IMO was the Steelers game, not any of the others.Last 3 games, maybe sit CP and protect investment. But no Kitna. Numbers I got are a $5.2 mill cap hit for 2005 if Enquirer article is right about $3 mill base, $1 mill roster bonus, and if $2.375 bonus was split for cap hit over 2 years.If Palmer sits from here on out, Bramlet should get majority of snaps to determine if he is viable backup. Not Kitna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jditty47 Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 palmer sit last 3 games? um protect investment? why would you sit somebody when they need experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengalsfan33 Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 I guess we'll probably see a little of Kitna Sunday because we don't need to risk getting Palmer seriously injured... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thepup Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 BengalBax,I don't understand your feelings on Palmer.Kitna never cost us a game,not the Cleveland game last yr and the playoffs,give me a break.palmer will be a very good QB.Just think if Manning wouldn't have been given a yr or two of mistakes,get over it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not-another Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Im starting to think Bax has some weird twisted obbession with Palmer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoDey93285 Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 Lewis said today that Palmer would be a game time decision for the Browns game. Courtesy of Channel 12 news. This is the worst time for him to be hurt because if he misses the game and Kitna does well, there is going to be an absolute fan uproar when Palmer comes back.

Thepup Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 Well hopefully fans would realize its the Browns,not one of the top ten defenses Palmer has been facing,but thats probably overestimating most fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longcut Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 With the O line he has it a wonder he can stand up at all. If Warrick would have been out their this year things might have been smother for Palmer. But all you ever hear is Kitina. That is not going to get it done. Palmer is the future. Im out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Brew Man Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 Game time decision eh? I certainly hope its not Kitna vs. Holcombe, as mentioned earlier, a solid game from Jonny and the controversy reaches an all time high.........

ShulaSteakhouse Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 My guess is Kitna will prove why he's on the bench (won't do much better than Palmer has). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalBax Posted November 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 My guess is Kitna will prove why he's on the bench (won't do much better than Palmer has). Oh Shula my man, I hope he gets the oppourtunity, I really do. All of you will suddenly start the "We could of had a winning season if he had been under center all year" posts. If he starts, I can't wait until Monday to say I TOLD YOU SO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sox Posted November 28, 2004 Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 If Cincinnati wins at home with Kitna against a team decimated with injuries,you'll be screaming,"I told you so!"?If Carson starts and they win,what then?Better yet,what if they lose with Kitna at the helm?The Bengals should win this game regardless of the qb.Why you think a mediocre journeyman qb who had only two decent seasons his entire career would have lead us to the promised land escapes me.No,actually it doesn't.Your purpose here is to stir things up.You don't really care who wins the game,as long as you can post and antogonize the people on this board.That's what's fun for you.
