Nelson doesn't pass the eye test, you'd never know he's an NFL prospect by looking at him. I thought the part about JB was pretty cool, I've honestly never noticed him leading the team, but then again I'm usually in the beer garden until kickoff.

 

I like Nelson, I really hope he makes it! It'd be like me making the team, we're like the same size :lol: so I have to root for him! Plays hard too and he's quick!

Fact- Palmer put his team in position to make the playoffs the following season in 2006 after hurting his knee. Special teams decided to not let that happen though.

 

Fact- Palmer made the Pro Bowl after that 2005 season in when you say he has gone down since. I also think he was name Pro Bowl MVP.

 

Fact- 2007 the line decides they have forgotten how to block, and no running game unlike the years before that. Willie Anderson hurt and can't play as much, and Levi never the same after hurting his knees.

 

Fact- 2007 teams finally learn that Bob Bratkowski is very predictable and still trying to run the same plays as 2005. They never adjusted and tried things. The offense was stale (And still may be in 2009 because of him still being the OC.)

 

Fact- 2008 line is horrible, gets Palmers nose broke in a preseason game. That shows how bad they were. Chris Perry was the starting running, so yeah no running game. The Brat still calling plays.

 

Fact- 2008 Chad Johnson and TJ don't participate really in training camp, no timing down with Palmer. And obviously Palmer only plays four games before season ended.

 

So yeah his numbers have went down since 2005, but please don't make it sound like its cause he has gotten worse. The team he has played on has gotten worse around him since that 2005 season. I really don't think you can argue that much at all. It would have been very hard for ANY QUARTERBACK to have stayed at that level with as bad as this team had gotten since 2005. I think this year will show that he is still the same QB as 2005, because this is the first year since 2005 that they have the talent and looks like the hunger again to do well like in 2005. If the line can protect him, his numbers will be there and he will be in the Pro Bowl again like he use to be.

 

Agree :thumb::thumb::thumb:

Who all is tuning in for the season finale tonight?

I will be for sure. I have really enjoyed this series I wish it wasn't ending.

I know. It has been pretty neat seeing the ins and outs of the team I've always rooted for. Even when I didn't agree, I loved it.

I wonder how many fans in Cincinnati a)signed up for HBO for this series and b)will be calling tomorrow to cancel HBO.

I for one will be calling this week to cancel. Besides Hardknocks there was not much else to watch IMO.

How can you not like Chad after this series?

The haters will hate, as they say. However, I thought the part with Roy Williams calling him out for dropping that ball was great. Then HBO, showing evidence of more than 2 dropped passes.

Yeah but I only got HBO for Hardknocks. I'm already too far behind on the other shows. Entourage to my understanding is an excellent series but I guess I'll just wait until the whole series comes out on DVD.

The first five seasons are out on DVD. Get them right now!

I'm sorry to see it's over, I really looked forward to it every week.

I am kinda surprised that the Pressly kid didn't get taken off of waivers by another team as that kid can block his arse off. Wouldn't be surprised if the running game doesn't take off that he finds his way onto the roster from the the practice squad.
