My issue isn't with WHAT Palmer is saying.  Taking at face value, he makes a perfectly fair point.  My issue is that he is saying this NOW, literally two days before the Bengals play the most important game in franchise history.  If there was ever a time to speculate on Burrow's future with the team after his rookie deal is up, this sure as **** isn't it.  He came back from a devastating injury and led the team to a Super Bowl appearance against all odds.  The city is in an absolute frenzy.  Read the ***** room, man.

Congratulate the team and the city, wish Joe Burrow all the best, and leave it at that for now.  Any discussion about what Burrow might do after his rookie deal sounds like unnecessary projection on Palmer's part.  At the very least wait until the off season to have this discussion.  But two days before the Super Bowl?  Come on.

Yup I agree. We all know the Bengals used to be cheap af on a ton of things, nothing new there. To Marvin's credit, he did get them to change that around over his tenure here. Now I never heard of hot chocolate out of mop buckets, but why bring all this up just before the game except to try to shit on them. Heck, the only reason he is even on these shows getting his name out there again is only because of the Bengals in the Super Bowl with a two week layoff. Otherwise everyone would have kept on forgetting about him.
