Say what you want about Palmer and how things turned out for him, but I truly think that you can thank him for the way this team is run right now.
I have no doubt in my mind (from my own thoughts as well as some of the people I know that were associated with the Bengals at the time) that things weren't going to change. It took a move like that from Palmer to make Mike Brown concede the day to day decisions on this team.
I always loved Palmer when he was here. He saw the writing on the wall and had to make the best decision for himself. However, it did lead to some significant changes with the organization.
