Did not want another Carson fiasco paying the man a fortune only to have him hold us hostage to get back to the left coast.

Palmer even tried throwing gas on that fire in Burrow's first year even with sour ***** comments about Bengals. Never seen a man so ungrateful to the people that gave him over $100 million for very limited production.

Guess Carson and his supporters (which I was once was) feel vindicated because he won 1 single playoff game with an Az team that seems like featured one of the best defense in NFL and then went all Carson on them in the next game sending them home.

Anyway back on subject lol. This should be a great AFC playoff rivalry for years to come. In the end their playoff success against each other will determine what separates them imo.

Right now Joe is in the lead in my book.

The future of the NFL is so exciting with all these great QB's at the beginning of their careers and Burrow and Herbert are definitely amongst them. So happy to have Joe Burrow in Bengals stripes.

At the time, i didn't feel that way. Here's something interesting i found last night. A thread on a Chargers MB about Herbert. It goes back to when he was drafted. 200 pages long, but check out the first 6 pages or so. Literally, there was only one or two guys that were ok with them drafting him there.
