So it didn't have the affect I thought it would. Color me surprised.

 

My question regarding the face of the franchise still stands. Anybody still want to embrace silliness and try to say it's Carson?

 

I will say the same thing as before. In this area, I do think most people consider Carson the face of the Bengals. However nationally most people definitely would consider Chad the face of the Bengals so you are right about that.

Well, never let it be said that Bengals fans don't engage in delusional behavior.

This isn't even a debate. Ochocinco is the face of the franchise. Ocho is much more well-known than Palmer. He's also had a much better career. Palmer hasn't been very good since the injury.

Chad is the face of the franchise but Carson IS the franchise.

Mike Brown?

That's what I was thinking. His name is next to ineptitude in the dictionary.

I am not going to go completely into this game. However that is simply false. Just look at 2006 when things were basically the exact same as 2005, and see how well he did after that. He did great once again, and that was the year right after the surgery, and it usually takes people over a year to get over that and he still did great with it that year. What changed was things around him after the 2006 season.

The reason I voted for Palmer is that he will be the scapegoat in a year or two if they still fail to either get to the playoffs or win if they get there. Chad may lead that charge, but it will be all about Carson Palmer the next couple of seasons.

I'm not playing a game. And you are correct, to a certain extent. 06 was a good statistical year. I was referring to his latest injury. I just don't think he's been comfortable since then, he also has lost a lot of arm strength. Just my opinion.

Your right on the latest injury. I do think there is still something wrong with it. I think this year we will be able to see, if there is something really wrong with it or not. From the sounds of it, it seems like they definitely are going to try to stretch the field more. So we will see how he looks, with them trying to change the passing game this year to more down field looks.
