It has to be Mike Browns ego. The guy would rather get nothing and teach everyone a lesson about who's boss then try and get draft picks while battling a lost cause. Not to different from Snyders stupid Media war.

X2. Brown is a 100% complete idiot. He was offered 2 first round draft choices for a past his prime Chad Johnson and turned it down. Someone needs to sit him down and tell him to step aside. Cinn. has good players and I'd say they're in better shape than we are. He could probably get a lot for Palmer if he'd listen to offers. But his ego is too damn big.

or Shanahan's ego I would say too. But yeah I don't get it, teams like Minny, Arizona, and maybe San Fran would jump on Palmer in a heartbeat. Throw in Ochocinco, you could get some picks out of those two and rebuild.

I don't think it's an issue of Palmer not fitting in this offense. IMO he'd be a great fit if it was the Palmer of a few years ago. But he's just not the same guy anymore.

This offense requires a lot of playaction boots, his footwork is shit (much like #5) and the results would probably be similar.

The classic Shanahan QB has a certain degree of mobility, CP has never been that kind of QB.

I'd rather have Rex.

You kidding? Portis threw 3 TD passes in his Skins career. He could handle some more passing action.

Oh, THAT CP.
