Sounds like 85 has some issues with it. Surprise, surprise.

If I were in T.O.'s or 85's position I would see this as Palmer quitting on them. While we all know that's not the whole story, from their perspective I can understand that attitude.

Really Carson? Your paid i believe 3rd in the league in base salary, the Bengals give you all these weapons around you, and because YOU cant get the job done, you want out. Every game, highlight i watch of him, he has one read. And where ever he is looking first, he is throwing, whether if the guy is covered or open, hes throwing. Thats why his INTs skyrocketed ever since his injury.
Ridiculous that he wants out. I would get rid of him if i were the Bengals whether or not this report is true, cause he is garbage and they should start fresh.

Something to keep in mind is that both TO and 85 will not be in Cincinnatti next year either.
OchoCinco even tweeted a week ago that he'd love to go to New England (and other reports have linked him to Oakland).
It's amazing how much Carson has fallen off the map in recent years. He used to be on the cusp of being an elite QB and has just dropped since. I don't know if it has to do with the injury, or the unhealthy situation in Cincy.. but Carson is just a mediocre QB right now. I wouldn't be shocked if he ends up in Seattle if they don't keep Hasselbeck. A renunion with Carroll sounds about right.

I think Chad will stay, knowing the stupidity of the Bengals organization even though he shouldnt. Hes not a dominate threat anymore, doesnt get into the end zone, and doesnt scare anybody.
T.O did surprise me though. Despite all of his drops, his routes looked pretty good last year and was splitting the defense. However, he shouldnt be brought back because the Bengals are a mess and need to start from the bottom up and get younger. Build around the draft and use the good like WRs they got like Sampson and Gresham.
I would personally put Carson on the market, and if you can receive a first round pick for him and maybe more, I would pull it. I dont see anything in this guy that makes him worth keeping for the future. But it looks like they are keeping him

if palmer leaves cincy he wont start again in the nfl. What? I don't agree with this at all. If he's demanding a trade and threatening retirement, the only way he goes if he starts. He wouldn't go somewhere to sit on the bench. I believe he can be a top caliber QB again. I just don't think Marvin Lewis is that good of a coach. Crucify me if you will, but he didn't deserve to be back this year. I think Carson agreed, thus his trade request. Also, Chad is changing his name back from Ocho Cinco. Just fyi for nyi

I wonder if they will give him the ocho treatment. Ochocinco asked for a trade a few years ago and they said no and kept him.

The difference between Palmer and Chad is that Palmer is willing to retire. I was listening t the radio the other day and I believe it was Chris Mortensen on saying the retirement threat is a real one. Palmer has a lot of money saved up over the years, his health (which is important to him), and his wife is lobbying him to retire. Apparently he's just sick of the situation in Cincy.
