Carson Palmer and the ring of honor.

[GatorAZ]

The only area I would differ is his popularity. Some, like me, will never forget him walking off the field with his panties in a bunch instead of celebrating with his team which had just earned a trip to the Super Bowl. That didn't sit too well with me.

I have a lot of memories of Boldin. Being a huge part of the turnaround, putting up elite numbers, playing with screws in his head etc.

But in the end, Q was for Q and not the team. Again, him storming off the field while his team celebrated entry to it's first Super Bowl will forever be ingrained in my mind.

How about putting the Josh McCown/Nate Poole duo in the ROH?? That play got us the future HOF Fitzgerald!!

We get Fitz regardless. Green's mind was already made up. Hell, even if we lose that game, we trade down and grab Fitz.

I don’t care. The good outweighed one bad day.

 

[NJCardFan]

HOFers tend to be pretty solid character guys... Can you pick a current ROH member who was of questionable character?

Hard to tell because back in the day there was no social media. Athletes back in the day were heavy drinkers. It's said that Max McGee played Super Bowl 1 with a bad hangover. The baseball hall of fame is filled with guys of questionable characters and I'm quite sure that every player in Canton wasn't a choir boy.

Your opinion and you're entitled to is just as I'm entitled to mine. IMO Q put his own interests ahead of the team then made the comment that "once a Raven always a Raven" essentially crapping on every fan for this team. He can go into Baltimore's ring of honor then.

I never felt crapped on as a fan but yeah agree to disagree.

 

[BigRedRage]

I will say this, if he didnt go down the all or nothing year we might have a super bowl ring.

 

[Cardsfanstl]

Read above John. I don’t disagree with you bro but there are reasons & you & I both know why #81 isn’t in

Yep. You and I both have a good idea as to why.

 

[Proximo]

I like Carson and all, but I do not think he deserves induction into the ring of honor. To me that devalues it, and sets a pretty low standard.

He had one year as a top 10 qb, all the rest he was around 20th qb - that is just not good enough for this kind of award IMO.

 

[wa52lz]

He's #3 in wins, #4 in yards and TDs and #2 by .8 in QB Rating in franchise history. Second highest winning percentage of QB's with more then 1 start @ .633 only behind Drew Stanton's .692. Records of the 6 QBs with winning records in franchise history 38-21-1 CP, 36-28-5 Charlie Johnson, 9-4 Drew Stanton, 5-3 Jay Schroeder, 3-2 Ralph Gugilemi and 1-0 George Izo. One of only 3 QBs with a playoff win. Plus all around great guy. Sad history of QBs but he belongs in my opinion.

He didn't go down in the all or nothing year. We went 13-3 that year then got stomped in the NFC championship game with him throwing 4 INT's.

 

[AZCrazy]

I think the brass is just looking for some good feels after last season's bitterness.

 

[BigRedRage]

I thought the year Lindley was playing late int he playoffs was the all or nothing year

thats the thing, it just speaks to our sad history is all

I was kinda on the fence until Carson said this:

Carson Palmer to the Cardinals Ring of Honor, despite just five years in AZ. He says, “I wish I would’ve gotten there earlier.” https://t.co/tUtI65B0Pz

I wish we had gone directly from Warner to Palmer myself. Would have been a much smoother transition from one journeyman QB to another...

 

[dreamcastrocks]

it speaks to our rich tradition that we consistently celebrate and induct quarterbacks who spent their twilight years here lol

I'm for it because in recent memory, he crushed it for us, especially the all or nothing season but I still find it funny. I'm sure most teams do not induct 5 year players into their ring of honor.

I personally don't think he belongs.

Appreciate what Palmer did here but put in the ROH?

Not deserving in my book. But, congrats to him anyway.

 

[azsouthendzone]

Leaving the NFC Championship out the back door with Drew Rosenhaus. He will never get inducted nor should he.

 

[wa52lz]

He didn't go down in the all or nothing year. We went 13-3 that year then got stomped in the NFC championship game with him throwing 4 INT's.

Didn't go down but I think that finger injury had a big impact on the rest of the season. Thru the Phily game he had gone 171 attempts over 19 qtrs. w/o throwing a pick. He had 9 picks on the year. Then after the finger, over the last 2 regular season games and the 2 playoff games he throws 8 ints. and 3 of the 4 games his comp % was less then his season avg.

 

[AZCrazy]

Hells yeeeah, you be truthin'. 'Sol political, Dock. Don' let no one tell ya to put on a suit. Ball don' matter.

 

[Dr. Jones]

I really don't get this one. Politics plays a big role I'm sure.

I just don't want the ROH to turn into the Basketball Hall of Fame. And that is a total joke. Mitch Richmond? Really????

And Anquan absolutely deserves it. I think there is spilt milk on both sides of that relationship. But the man is one of three Cards to win the Man of the Year award. He absolutely should be in.

With all of that being said though........Larry Centers & Conrad Dobler are also complete travesties.

 

[sdscard4]

Palmer was an absolute stud. When we got him nobody believed NFC Championship game or a 13 win season. Take all your he doesn't deserve crap out the door. Absolutely ROH

 

[mojorizen7]

There has to be an ulterior motive here.

Keim patting himself on the back would be my guess.
