As for Palmer and his extension, keep in mind that he insured everything was structured in a way that his contract would not cause a cap situation that prevented re-signing players, only to watch guys like Justin Smith and Housh walk out the door...

Then we see Andy taking a team friendly deal and then watching as MB gets cheap on the o-line and lets 2 seasons go down the drain while Andy gets ground into the turf as a way of showing thanks.  Rock on.

Some of the ways fans take Carson leaving personally is a little odd, but that's the nature of fandom. Personally, if someone like Larry Fitzgerald saw fit to make Carson the captain of the Cardinals who are we to claim that the guy is a quitter who never had his heart in playing football? Meh, come up with your own conclusions.
