Seems like a great quarterback with tremendous potential. The off field antics of the Bengals really amaze me, at some point you have to question the leadership of the team, and the players they have surrounded Palmer with.

It is a shame he is stuck in Cincinatti, this guy is a good quarterback who plays for a terrible organization.

Four and a half. You can see that his numbers dropped while not having Henry and TJ being dinged. He needs recievers to have good seasons unlike Favre and Brady.

Top 5 QB for sure.

Top 5 in the NFL this season includes Peyton Manning, Tony Romo, Big Ben, Palmer, and (I know you're going to laugh at me for this) Derek Anderson.

After Sunday's performance against Cleveland, it's hard to deny Palmer's talent. He moves pretty well, but, with his accuracy / quick release, he could probably get by without the mobility

Carson has the prototypical size,arm and brains to be an NFL QB I see plenty of five stars ratings and I have to ask what has he done to deserve it at this juncture of his career?

He's NFL's Best QB

He's the prototypical quarterback for the NFL. He has a strong arm and outstanding accuracy. He's also one of the few quarterbacks drafted #1 overall who has not been a bust. Palmer suffered a knee injury in last year's playoffs and he probably could've taken the Bengals far. Entering only his 3rd season in the NFL, he already has proven that he has the mental toughness and intelligence to succeed at this level. Add that to his physical attributes and you have a franchise QB who should be a Pro-Bowler for the rest of his career, barring injuries.

Good all American boy, he looks like he's good with the ladies. Too bad he has to wear those terrible uniforms yuck!

It's amazing how well this kid is doing. He came on pretty strong late last year, and alot of people began talking him up because of it. I didn't hop on the bandwagon then, but it's kind of hard not to now. I feel that he has been the most reliable and productive quarterback all season. He has outperformed even Peyton Manning. Say what you want to about Peyton winning the duel in between the two because the simple truth is both teams really just proved how grossly weak their overrated defenses were. If Carson can either take the Bengals deep into the playoffs or performs this highly again next year, I'll rate him a 5. UPDATE: Ouch! It sounds like his knee injury is pretty serious. Normal time for a torn ACL could be anywhere from 6 to 9 months. It surely will affect his ability to play next season, the only question is how much... If he turns out to be okay and leads his team as he did this season, then I'll rate him a 5.

What a season for Palmer. If it weren't for him, the Begals would NEVER have been the great team they are now. No wonder he won he Heisman in 2002.

Palmer has shown this year that he is ready to be a great quarterback in the NFL. He has a good build for an NFL QB, and he has shown increased poise and leadership lately.

A wonderful surprise. And I have to love my Trojans.

Taking the Bengals to the promise land, where they haven't been in awhile. Good for him... and good for the Bengals. I am a Bears fan, but I am glad for the fans in Cincinnati.
