Palmer to IR

[Dan H]

So much for Urban's musings that he might miss only 3 games.

Any hope of a quicker-than-expected Carson Palmer return has been dashed.

The Cardinals’ quarterback was placed on injured reserve Thursday with his broken arm, a move that will keep him out of action for a minimum of eight weeks. The earliest Palmer can return to the field is the Christmas Eve matchup against the Giants, which is the second-to-last game of the regular season.

The Cardinals should try out a new QB during this period. Stanton is a backup QB at best so the Cardinals need to see if they can find a starter going forward, at least until they draft their QBOTF.

I'd even be interested in Kaepernick but I cannot understand why they do not give Gabbert the opportunity. It's not like the Cardinals are going anywhere.

8 weeks for a broken non throwing arm?? Wrap that like warner did...and get back out there

Warner has a torn elbow tendon in on throwing not a broken forearm

One incredibly underrated aspect of Warner's football career was his physical toughness. You would literally have to knock him unconscious before you could get him out of a game.

Like it or not, CP3 being out is pretty much the season. People can hate on him all they want, but if you gave him a little bit of time, he would play at a conference-championship level.

Palmer is finished for the season. Cards should move TJ Logan to active squad to return kicks. We need to see what he can do.

Is this an admission of the season?

He's on IR now, so out 8wks. Wont be back until wk 16. You think he'll be ready to start that week?

They may have found something 'out of the ordinary' in surgery that caused this, so i wouldn't count on him playing again.

 

[TRW]

Must have been a pretty severe break. Feel bad for CP he has been a true warrior. Hope he retires for his own good.

 

[Jasper]

The season's done, no point in CP holding a roster spot.

If there ever was a time to see what Gabbert can do is now but Bruce "Stubborn as a mule" Arians is going to play the stiff at QB. That's called throwing in the towel.

Good we need the best pick we can get. I don't want to win another game this year.

Yeah... it'll be uber painful to watch Stanton stink up the joint all season, but better in the end when we get our pick of QBOTF... which Gabbert sure as hell ain't, nor should he be given the chance to possibly McCown this team out of the top of the draft like 2003.

 

[clif]

Gabbert aint poo.

 

[AZ Native]

Gabbert aint ****.

So maybe we should start him and find out for sure. Nothing to lose, everything to gain.

well,then,..someone else is coming

 

[LittleDavis]

I wouldn't start Gabbert yet. I would wait until Stanton proves, after managing a few games, that he is horrible as a starting QB(yes, I know that we already know this). Why throw Gabbert to the wolves right now?

Not for nothing but is there anything in the 1st round draft picks by BASK that would have you confident they would make the right pick?

 

[overseascardfan]

Gabbert aint ****.

Hard to judge any QB with this OL. Palmer is different in that Father Time has caught up with him big time and his decision making has been shaky the last couple of years even when we had a decent OL.

I just want the best shot at a young QB. How good Bask is or is not is still helped by the better pick IMO. Plus with the cap it's big to have the cheap young QB over a 28 Million a year vet. Unless that vet is a Rogers kind of guy and that will never happen.

That's what I'm thinking. With this OL, there's no way Gabbert would last through the season. If they have any hopes of Gabbert or even Stanton contibuting next year, why put them through that kind of abuse? By splitting the games between the two, at least you're rationing the beatings. I'm pretty sure that's what they're thinking. They know who Stanton is.
