Why the Cincinnati Bengals may struggle against the Arizona Cardinals

“So we shouldn’t dwell on Carson”.

QUOTE TO NOTE: “You have to pick your spots, and before I go over there, I think about how to present my ideas”. That was the pure emotion of, ‘You know what? Holy crap! 2004 was SO.

RUN THE BALL: As is often the case, the team that runs the ball probably will have the best chance at a victory.

With the way the NFC is shaping up, we could be headed for an Arizona-Carolina NFC championship game, and what odd turn that would be, after both franchises ended last season as a “pretender” in the playoffs. “He always has his package for a game and he’s capable of handling either guy’s (game-day) package”.

This should be a fun game to watch between two playoff bound teams.

His sometimes tumultuous play has translated into an equally tumultuous career. Palmer was drafted No. 1 overall by the Bengals in 2003 and played eight seasons for Cincinnati before being traded to Oakland in October 2011 after saying he would retire rather than play for the team again.

Once upon a time, Carson Palmer was the Bengals’ QB. Bengals owner Mike Brown denied a trade request, but eventually dealt the disgruntled quarterback to the Raiders. He is also turning the ball over less, throwing interceptions only 1.7 percent of the time and has been more effective at spreading the ball to players not named A.J. Green. He finished the game catching only 3 of 8 targets for 41 yards and no touchdowns. Stanton waved Ellington down the sideline, then pumped his arms and kicked a leg up. Only Palmer’s skills haven’t diminished. Good stable of backs.

You can keep saying the teams from the 90s would crush these GS Warriors, but the contention looks sillier and more out of date with every win.

“Very similar. They’re very long and fast”.

According to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, the NFL has handed out an $11,576 fine to Palmer for this action at the end of the game.

But that was pre-Palmer. Or at least it did for six games. Running back Jeremy Hill has been unable to follow up on his stellar rookie season, failing to reach the end zone during a five-game span in which he’s rushed for 196 yards.

Former Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner tweeted on Friday that he suffered a broken jaw in two places while playing basketball with a few friends. His season was over.

Folks will quickly point to the he said-she said between former Cincinnati quarterback Carson Palmer and his old team, but even more interesting is the ensuing on-field chess match between two teams that match up well against each other and continue to fire on all cylinders.

Remember when something eerily similar happened in 2005 when he was with the Bengals?

“Any time you play a team where you spent a few time, especially for as much time as I spent there, ” he said, “it’s not just another game”.

The Cardinals went on to make the postseason on the strength of their 6-0 start, but were bounced in the first round by the Carolina Panthers. “Myself and this team are focused on Week 11, not 2011”.

The Arizona Cardinals (7-2) are coming from a a 39-32 win over the Seattle Seahawks last week.

The Bengals’ offense has been outstanding, because of Jackson’s game plans and knowledge.

Quarterback Andy Dalton had his worst outing of the year, totalling 197 yards through the air with no touchdowns and an interception. While he’s at it, he might also just set a career high in passing yards. Because why not? He deserves it.

Peterson has done a good job against other elite receivers this season.

“I know the truth and I know my side and obviously his side”, Palmer said.
