Carson Palmer Retires

[Wordsmyth]

Per NFL.com.

Smart move. The best of luck to him.

The QB age curve claims another mortal. Age 37 for Palmer.

Overall he had a solid career especially when you consider he played for 3 loser franchises (Cinci, Oakland & Arizona).

 

[RobertWeathers]

Very, very good career.

 

[resdubwhite]

spent his fair share of time on the treatment table. Good QB. All the best in retirement

His medical history is crazy.

Only one concussion. Yea, right.

Carson Palmer injury history and analysis

 

[Joey007]

Very, very good career.

Reminds me of Bledsoe’s career in some ways. (Although Drew’s was probably a bit better.)

 

[Dingleberry]

Didn't Palmer say something along the lines of Brady did the crime, should do the time regarding Deflate BS?

He's not the douche nozzle that is Mark Brunnel, but F him and his career of losing.

 

[JMC00]

****e QB

Well, Carson had more TDs, more yards, better comp %, less INT % in less games but Drew played in a little bit of a different era not as pass happy.

Both sucky in the playoffs

Yea he was a little prickish...

Palmer on Brady: Get busted, suffer penalties

Thanks for the confirmation.

Double F him, then. Loser QB for loser franchises.

Both sucky in the playoffs

Drew had his playoff run in 96, a win in 97 playoffs, and his fill in during the 01 playoffs. Nothing special, but definitely better than Carson’s 1 playoff win.

The stats really can’t be compared between eras, so I’d say Drew was a bit better.

Nevertheless both were similarly #1 picks that couldn’t quite live up to early career hype, but had good careers.

Eh, people said way worse things back at the time, and Carson really didn’t know anything. I can’t hold a grudge against everyone that makes a careless comment.

 

[Wheelman]

And another loser bites the dust! **** that piece of **** *******! Don't let the door hit you on the way out *******!

LAR = Goff
SF = Jimmy G
Sea = Russell Wilson
Ariz = last place

 

[Joey007]

LAR = Goff
SF = Jimmy G
Sea = Russell Wilson
Ariz = last place

The division is going to be in that order for the next couple years IMO. Think Seattle is now going to go through a couple transition years where they hover around .500.

People didn't know they were being spoon fed lies by ESPN and the NFL, at that time.

Almost anyone offering up a hot take back then was sure to look bad now, except for the very few of us who were yelling about pressure-temperature effects almost immediately.

Well compared to brady yeah drew sucked in the playoffs. By any normal qb standards drew wasn’t that bad. Made a super bowl in 96 and without him we don’t win super bowl #1 in 2001.

I have zero expectations for Joe Jet Fan or half of the turd sports writers out there.

However, an NFL QB should have known the PSI thing was horseshit. He piled on, albeit mildly.

You are a decent person not holding grudges for such minor infractions. I, on the other hand, am a miserable and petty phuck. Screw that loser, Palmer.

Bingo.

It’s all picking your battles. No use in hating the guy for the comment.
