Carson Palmer is done

I think he could get another shot with a different team in the future, but his best days appear to be over. I just watched him in the pocket with ALL DAY to the throw the ball, not one person in his face, and he lobs it right into triple coverage in the endzone. I mean hes shown flashes in the past, but to me, he was never great, he just hasn't been the same since the injury...

There was a time, a la 2005-2006, where Carson Palmer was an easy top 5 QB in the league, then along came von Oelhoffen. The thing is that it was a knee and not his head...his decision making is terrible now and he shows little signs of getting better.

He was amazing pre-injury.

The knee injury almost certainly messed with his mechanics - he doesn't throw the ball nearly as hard as he used to. Perhaps it's nowhere near what it used to be, or perhaps it's all mental and he just doesn't trust it.

Yep, cos he's a white devil.

Hey, its hurt his development. If he had that kinda pressure to deal with he'd be alot tougher and a much better QB. Nobody ever took the training wheels off Carson. As is, even surrounded with talent he has he cant manage to win. The guy is one of the top 2 highest paid QBs in the league.

He got paid based off of 2005 numbers and now he plays scared and has lost that killer instinct. The Bengels are full of guys that were legitimate playmakers...now they have a broken Qb throwing to an aged wide out that drops it more than anyone in the league.

I do love Shipley though, and Benson and Gresham aren't anything to sniff at either.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.

      I mean, our TE room does suck but we had other pressing needs and no surefire upgrades in the draft. I was surprised at how many TEs went in the first three rounds. I think most everyone was. You want a guy who projects at least as a guy who has the potential ceiling to be a starter in those rounds and I didn't see 11 of those in this draft. Off the top of my head, I think that's how many TEs went in the first three rounds. It was in that range. That's roughly 10% of the overall picks. Definitely did NOT see that coming with this TE class.
