even he was a choke artist ... body of work for me is much greater in the long run for the loser from Philly .. but Carson could change all that in the next few years ..

I think you might be confused on what stats are.

Well at least the Raiders have a reason to be a win-now team. We had no business trading for a QB last season, unless that QB was Brees, Manning, Rodgers, or Brady. As I said, this Raiders trade will be more of a disaster than our trade for McNabb if it fails. As for now, we have to wait and see what happens.

I just perfer results over numbers .. unless its wins and division titles super bowls in this case zero etc etc

Maybe I'm confused on what you mean by results? Because all I did was post a page full of 'results.' That's the only thing I'm judging on here. It's not like I posted a scouting report on McNabb's mechanics vs. Palmer's mechanics, something that is also not close.

With this deal, Oakland doesn't have a draft pick until the 5th round next year.

Another big difference between the McNabb trade and the Palmer trade: The Eagles knew McNabb was done and they wanted to get rid of him. Palmer wanted out of a dysfunctional organization.

Ok, who killed the real Mike Brown? I thought he was a man of principle. A man who never caved. XD

Oh, and fellas, if Carson "I'm almost dead" Palmer costs 2 1sts, Lucky Luck Luck is going to cost EVEN MORE.

wins, division titles, post. season success albeit no rings..

Yet still Mike Brown refused to trade him.

Are you counting McNabb's accomplishments before 2005, because since 2005, the Bengals won more division titles under Palmer than McNabb won.

But you're being silly. You asked me to reconsider/retract a statement that Palmer in his prime was much better than McNabb in his prime. Then you're talking about how many wins and playoff wins they have.

Regular season, Palmer's been better by every measure except longevity. Playoffs, we'll see. But it's not relevant to this argument or the trade.

Mike Brown is a proven idiot. Glad he gave in when he did. The guy made bank this time. If it wasnt for JC going down, trade wouldnt happened. Palmer still would be retired.

They are the anti-Patriots. LOL. But yeah, this is terrible. They better filled their holes through free agency and get lucky with low-round picks.
