Carson Palmer will throw an interception and people will go nuts

It’s inevitable.  Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer will make a mistake or two against the Seahawks.  Even in victory, Palmer has had his moments of struggle against the NFC West division leaders.

What will likely happen as well is Cardinals fans starting to go crazy over it on social media.  I don’t completely blame them.  All of us are nervous what the near future brings to the Cardinals.  They are in an almost must-win situation if they have aspirations to win the division.

Let’s remember also that Palmer can make mistakes and still overcome them and win.  He’s done it before, even against the Seahawks.

Fans will need to keep their heads on straight.  Palmer is the starter and unless he gets hurt or the Cardinals are getting blown out, Palmer is the guy, period.

So when Palmer throws his first pick on Sunday night, just remember the Cardinals can win without him being perfect or even above average.  Yes, we all would feel much better with an above average or even average game.
