Then Palmer had his knee shredded by a punk-ass Steeler. It was heart breaking. A lot of players had to endure a lot under Mike Brown. His leadership was about as innovative as a common pebble on the drive-way.
But damn if Palmer quit the team. He quit the fans.
It was to 15, not 85.
I don’t blame Palmer, and I think he’s right. The Bengals front office is one of the least staffed in the entire league. The coaches have historically done a great job of finding the talent themselves. This is a tough job to have, you have more on your plate.
