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.

    • 2 games is simply not enough to judge what we have with these guys.   I think it's clear the defense needs talent. Offense is actually in a pretty good position with our Oline and RB. Maybe we can upgrade the WR position other than that most of our issues are on defense. This should be a simple draft for us.    
    • I realize that the coaches see the players on the roster and practice squad at practice, but there are several players I want to see play substantial minutes in a game situation.  I AM NOT SUGGESTING THAT WE START ALL THESE PLAYERS--I AM SUGGESTING THAT WE GIVE SOME MEANINGFUL PLAYING TIME TO A FEW FROM THIS LIST.  This article about 2022 draft pick (Bears) Velus Jones led to this thread:   https://oldnorthbanter.com/panthers-urged-to-give-former-draft-bust-a-chance-entering-season-s-final-games-01jfzg7bj02n Velus Jones, WR/RB/KR:  Very fast and can be elusive. The article compares him to a Cordarrelle Patterson. Stood out at 2022 SR Bowl.  Drafted in the third round (I think) by Bears.  I did not know he was on the roster.  He is 27. Caleb Farley (CB/S):  He has had his fair share of injuries and his play has been sub par, but maybe the former first rounder was in the wrong position.  Let him face the LOS and move him to Safety.  His injuries (back and knee) and size 6' 2" 200 lbs make it tough to play CB, but I think he might be able to handle Safety, based on my limited knowledge of the skill sets for both positions.  For now, let him play CB, but if he looks decent, consider S. Demani Richardson (S):  Yes, he made a play last week.  Let him play more to see if it was a fluke or legit. Xavier Woods is set to become an UFA at age 30.  Jaden Crumedy (DT):  I have a feeling there will be some house cleaning at DT/DE (3-4) this offseason.  Ray and Tuttle have been embarrassing this season, and Ray becomes an ERFA.  Tuttle can be cut post June 1 for a $6m savings.  A. Robinson has been average at best, but he is signed for 2 more seasons (he too can be cut post June 1 for a $6m savings).  We know we get Brown back and I am confident we draft a DT.  Can Crumedy work into the rotation?  What if we go 4-3?  We need some film on him playing from the 3 tech and the nose. Jacoby Windmon  (ILB)  I realize that he is playing, but  we need to put him in different situations to see how he looks. At 6-2, 250, he has the size to play ILB in a 3-4 or 4-3, but he has also had some reps as a DE in college, if I am not mistaken.  I would like to see him in coverage and blitzing.   He led the team in tackles last week (8).  Andrew Raym (C)   We may have something in Mays, but we need depth.  Can Raym play?  We'd have to bring him up from the PS, but he could step up and keep us from drafting a C late.
