Arizona Cardinals: 8 reasons not to panic
By Scott Allen
Carson Palmer
Yes, Palmer has not looked like the MVP candidate Palmer from last season. He went the first 11 quarters of the season without an interception.
That all changed in the fourth quarter of the loss to the Bills when he threw four interceptions. A couple of them it appeared receivers ran wrong routes. He was also trying to make things happen in a short amount of time attempting a comeback.
It is amazing as quickly as some fans fell in love with him, they are jumping off the bandwagon. The track record is there no doubt. Let’s not forget the quarterback he’s been though from week four of the 2013 season until week 16 of the 2015 season.
He’s not the same Palmer we knew in Oakland. Yes, we get it, he’s only won one playoff game. I’d rather have Palmer back behind center right now in lieu of a Drew Stanton, Matt Barkley, or anyone else.
Palmer isn’t perfect, far from it. He’s going to make mistakes. We won’t pretend he is Tom Brady or anything. He’s Carson Palmer. Take the bad with the good. Cardinals are lucky to have him.
