Did Steelers and bungles exchange QBs?

palmer's playing like Big Ben of 2004-2005 (Ben's rookie year).

Think carson palmer can deliver a Super Bowl trophy for the bungles?

What are you smoking? Carson's play has been average all season, and last night he looked flat-out bad (plus they lost).

If the season were to end today, and the currently playoff seedings hold, he'd have to beat the likes of Orton in Cincy, Rivers in San Diego, Peyton in Indianapolis, and Brees in Miami in order to do so...so, no, I don't think so.

Like the Steelers, a horrible O.C. is the main culprit.

Carson has been playing horrible recently though. Not sure how else to put it. There is plenty of blame to go around, but the gist of it is we need another WR/Target for Carson to throw to when Chad gets double and triple teamed.

Both of our TE's are horrible and Jeremi Johnson while a good blocking FB, drops every ball thrown to him. The Chris Henry injury has really hurt the offense. Hopefully they will activate Jerome Simpson soon and he can provide some kind of deep threat spark. Doubt it though...

Just think...when you drafted Jerome Simpson, you could have had the great Limas Sweed instead! He is active for us, but similarly (non-)productive.

Thinking more about the guy that went 3 picks after Simpson in the draft.

Some guy named DeSean Jackson...

In that draft, Chris Johnson went 1 spot after us in the first, and Ray Rice went 2 spots after us in the second. But even if we got either of those guys (2087 and 1693 yards from scrimmage so far this year, respectively), they still would be woefully underused by Arians as we go for 3rd and 1 in an empty backfield shotgun formation.

You can put people in the backfield besides the QB? Damn ... when did they change that rule? I've been watching the steelers so much I didn't realize that.

LOL, you sound like a defeated fan.

I disagree about Carson needing another WR/target. He has plenty of weapons.
