Time to disown Carson Palmer

In 2009, Palmer wanted Coles signed after he was released by the Jets, and recruited him over the phone:

 "Anytime a quarterback of his caliber takes time out to give you a call and lets you know how important he feels it would be to come to a team he plays for, I felt that was something great. I felt it was something I needed to take a close look at."

The Bengals ended up signing him, just as Palmer wanted.

After the 2009 season, with Coles not working out, Palmer told them he wanted more weapons. They went out and signed Bryant to a 4 year deal and also added Owens, who Palmer lobbied for personally. After the signings, Carson said:

"I don't know why we can't win the Super Bowl. There's absolutely no reason we can't win every game on our schedule."

Of course, these moves didn't end up working out as planned, but at the time, Carson was singing a different tune.

I seem to remember Carson sucking in the playoff game against the Jets the week after they knocked us out of the #2 seed. Carson needs to just STFU and have good cold hard look in mirror when he's talking about our inability to win a Super Bowl. He had some role in that. 
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.
