TFoA Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Wow, well at least judging by that article, Carson's gonna be hellbent on making it back from that injury. Truly was devastating, but he seems like the guy that's not gonna let that be the end of his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floydnimrod Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 DAMN IT!We should draft a quarterback in like the 4th round anyway Mancakes: The Bandhttps://twitter.com/FloydNimrod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosox Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Well, according to the article it WAS career threatening, but no longer.Paulos was able to repair the knee without removing pieces of cartilage or soft tissue, a good sign."The things that were torn could be repaired," he said. "They were not torn beyond repair. So he's got all his parts in there, which is good. We're optimistic, actually."If rehabilitation goes well, Palmer could be running in a couple months and might be able to play in the first regular-season game, Paulos said. The 2006 schedule hasn't been set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoDey42 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I still think he'll be back for next season based on what I've heard. I'm still optimistic.But, I agree, the Bengals should draft another QB or we need to get a quality QB in free agency. Kitna most likely won't be back (even though I wish he would). Even if Kitna does come back, Craig Krenzel is not a QB that is going to win ANY games for us if he has to come in in place of Kitna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 He's a pocket quarterback. What does he really need his knees for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCBoy Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 He's a pocket quarterback. What does he really need his knees for? Well, first of all he has to be able to stand up without crutches..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 He's a pocket quarterback. What does he really need his knees for? Well, first of all he has to be able to stand up without crutches..... Yeah that would certainly help...Man just when Cincy had turned the corner they get this. I feel bad for them. Hopefully the kid will come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_justdmb Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I think it 'was' potentially career ending. Everything said makes it sound like he'll be fine. Not quite the clean tear they said at first. They need to get their story straight and stick to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paynomind Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Peak? how about the very beginning? He JUST came into his own this year, and had 15 years of good playing ahead of him. Hopefully he can recover fully. NCFA Sunset Beach Tech - Octopi ΓΔΒ! Going to college gets you closer to the real world, kind of like climbing a tree gets you closer to the moon.

Cujo Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 No need to grip, Cincy fans. The media's just putting a spin on this. This kinda thing has happened before to quarterbacks and they've come back just fine. Palmer will be back next season just as good as ever.

WhoDey42 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Just like Jim Rome said on his show today... this doctor is just trying to cover his ass. He says "It could be potentially career ending...but the surgery went well and he could be back for next season." If his career is over...he's right. The injury was career ending and theres nothing he could do. If he comes back next year...he's right. He did a great job on the surgery and saved his career.

Sport Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 I snuck into the steelers' locker room and stole their gameplan for the colts.Only kidding, what happened was not intentional, but unfortunate nonetheless. When my dad saw it his first reaction was that it was Greg Cook all over again. Since I am not old enough by 18 years to even be alive for that, I liken it to Kijana Carter. Hopefully he can recover and have more success after his return than Carter did. They say it's an 8 month recover period, it took Jerry Rice 6 so it can happen.

brinkeguthrie Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 WOW, and people say the Browns are cursed.As a person I say I hope he'll recover, but as a Browns fan I say YA BABY!!! Can't believe you'd say something that tasteless. I grew up in Cincinnati and was there when Sam Wyche said, 'You don't live in Cleveland, you live in Cincinnati."In reference to your post, Sam might've had a point.Cheering someone's serious injury. Amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 WOW, and people say the Browns are cursed.As a person I say I hope he'll recover, but as a Browns fan I say YA BABY!!! This reminds me of that time Sam Wyche told Bengal fans not to throw stuff on the field by saying "You live in Cincinnati, Not Cleveland" www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
