Bengals continue to claim Palmer not going anywhere

You guys thought I was kidding the Browns are crazy and Palmer will retire or play for the Bengals. Maybe they change their tune as this drags on. But right now I wouldn't count on getting Palmer.

Bengals team official: Stance on Palmer hasn’t changed

Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on March 4, 2011, 5:42 PM EST

Following a report by SI’s Peter King that the Bengals would be open to listening to offers for Carson Palmer, one Bengals team official told Joe Reedy of the Cincinnati Enquirer that the team’s stance towards Palmer hasn’t changed.

That stance: Palmer will be playing in Cincinnati or he can retire.

Palmer’s stance: He’d rather retire than play in Cincinnati.

As it states there's no pressure to do anything right now, don't expect anything until CBA is done and the draft is on the brink.

I honestly don't think they are going to do it. I know you are thinking, "That doesn't make sense."

Welcome to Bengal's land

What is Brown trying to accomplish? Do you want Palmer in Cincy after this drama? If not, what the hell are you doing?

He will retire. The Bengals have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING behind him. They have the 4th pick in the draft and Carolina and Buffalo pick before them. Of course, teams needing QBs might trade with Denver. THey could get shut out, coming out of the draft with AJ Green.

I think he will be traded and the logical thing to do is to package a deal with us. They would get their pick of the litter. We get a veteran QB and drop to #4. Assuming Newton goes first, Bowers to Denver, and I have a hunch Buffalo will take either Gabbert or Von Miller. That leaves us Dareus, Fairley, and Quinn from which to choose---and/or possibly Gabbert. What we should have done anyway. We get our guy plus a veteran QB, Cincy gets the best QB in the draft (something they needed anyway) and we all sing "Happy days are here again."

The Bengals want him to stay.

So, until they actually have a chance to deal him, I would expect them to keep pressuring him to stay. Once they can actually make deals we may see some things happen though.

You underestimate the stupidity of the Bengals young Skywalker.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • 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.
    • 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.
