Wow. A lot of posts and reasons.
The easiest way to explain all of these "feelings".
Some people don't like quitters. Period no matter what.
Some people don't think he quit and see him as a martyr of some sort.
It's okay now... but at some point, I bet many fans were embarrassed that the franchise QB was trying to step away from the team which would put the ultimate stamp on dysfunction the team was trying to shake.
The air was thickening of the "laughing stock" moniker to rear it's ugly head and days of doom through Bengaldom.
This team had disaster even the term "dumpster fire" written all over it by the media(thanks Colin Cowherd). Add the lack of training due to union/owners talks.
Luckily it all faired for the best with the successful restructure of the team(which was done by the incompetent front office/coaches BTW **cough cough**) and with Dalton having the highly capable WR Green to ease him into the NFL
I bet there would be an even bigger and more hate filled "butthurt" fan-base if Carson's departure would have put this team back into the dark days before his arrival.
Basically I get why people don't like him and it still irks them.
It's not only what happened, but remembering what a joke it was for the QB of the team to be stepping away for whatever reason.
It worked out for both parties so let bygones be bygones, and may he be buried by our D line in good honest and clean competition.
Just remember folks... this is not Cleveland.![[Image: tongue.png]](http://bengalsboard.net/images/smilies/tongue.png)
