Carson Had Pain-Killing Shot Injection In Shoulder Before Colts Game

INDIANAPOLIS - NOVEMBER 14:  Carson Palmer #9 of the Cincinnati Bengals throws a pass during the Bengals 23-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in the NFL game at Lucas Oil Stadium on November 14 2010 in Indianapolis Indiana. The Colts won 23-17.  (Photo by Andy Lyons/Getty Images)

Carson Palmer reportedly hurt his throwing shoulder during Cincinnati's 27-21 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers last Monday Night.

The injury was severe enough to keep Palmer out of practice on Wednesday and Thursday last week heading into Sunday's game against the Colts. Eventually getting on the field on Friday, Palmer ran a few drills and threw a few passes and listed as probable.

Due to the shoulder injury, Palmer "took a pain-killing injection in shoulder to help him start" against the Colts on Sunday. Even though miscommunication and bad decision-making ended up being a massive detriment during Cincinnati's 23-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, arm strength was hardly an issue with Palmer attempting several deep passes to Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco.

Hmm

During the game, one of the commentators said that Carson had told him that the locker room still believes they can reach the playoffs. Is the fact that Carson and Chad played through injury show that they’re not giving up yet and they still believe they can make it?

RE:

Not sure about the playoffs, but I do believe they’re playing their guts out – I think that was especially true with Chad. Just sucky results.

Sucky play calling,

Sucky coaching and time management, sucky execution, sucky discipline, sucky passing and………..
The only thing that was a bright spot was Chad’s effort. Which you said, sucky results.

The problem with Chad is inconsistency.

One day he comes out and gives it all like today, and next day he slacks off and drops every ball.

Why?

He’s a bazillion dollar investment and this season is frickin toast. Why not just shut him down? Not that he’s ever going to be the same anyway. He’s done been Bengalized for good.

needs a shot between his ears!

He doesn’t care…When was the last time anyone saw him scramble for yards? another potential difference maker that has eluded him this year as opposed to past years!!!!!!!!!!
