Carson Palmer Can See Himself Playing For Another Team Next Season

he’s got to be as tired as anyone. I imagine he has day dreamed of a career resurgence playing for an actual professional football organization somewhere else.

Honestly the only thing I could think of that would make Carson excited about coming back next year would be if they hired a new offensive minded head coach, like Hue Jackson (cause we know none of the big name guys are coming here).

Otherwise even assuming he is back next year, which really given our owner and the backup QB situation it is about 95% likely he stays, it’s just going to be more of the same

Carson. Hope against hope.
His daytime fantasy.
Best wetdream he ever had.

But at $12 million/year, how could he come back? If Brown wants him to restructure his deal, I am sure Carson says “no way now or ever”.
Carson does deserve a shot elsewhere, maybe he still can play and just needs a change of scenery.

From the timeout incident to his sideline actions, I don’t see Palmer “leading” this team. You can watch other games, for example, two weeks ago when IND’s White ran the wrong route and bumped into Wayne in the end zone, messing up a TD, as they were on the sidelines, Peyton came over and gave him an earful. I don’t see that “control” from Palmer. He’s always just sitting on the bench not saying anything, not looking at a playbook, not consulting with his offensive teammates, no leadership whatsoever. Brady does it, Rivers does it, just don’t see it from him. Now to be fair, I don’t get a lot of Bengals broadcasts, but when I do, I have noticed that he isn’t vocal. I think his personality is quite like Lewis, more quiet and reserved, and that is a problem. They need leaders in that locker room, and all you here is that guys from the O-Line, like Willie, Bobbie or Andrew as the vocal leaders. I think Carson needs to step up, but sadly, maybe years of losing has just worn him down and the team just goes through the motions, because that’s what it looks like on the field.

I want Carson gone! I agree, he is not a leader. You never see him get in anyones face after a bad ran route, dropped ball, or missed block. He will never be able to lead this team. I do feel that it is not all his fault but a big load of our failures do fall on his shoulders. He does none of the things that you expect a good QB to do. His accuracy these days is horrible, he makes bad decisions, and he never can look off a safety or a db, he just stares down whatever receiver he throws too, HORRIBLE! And since the injuries his arm strength doesn’t even look the same. I say we take a chance on a Andrew Luck or Cam Newton and trade Carson. We then must build a sold line around our new QB and bring in some new coaches to bring a new attitude to this team. REPLY AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK.

and when we do bring in a new QB, new coaches, new OL line and a new attitude it will put us back 5 years. We are dammed if we do and dammed if we dont. Pick your poison.
