It's not that Palmer isn't performing well after He was quickly healed and played all 16 games in his sophomore year (no easy task; just ask Robert Griffin III) and even made the Pro Bowl. However, the Palmer of 2005 -- who led to the top of the Madden NFL 24 with 32 touchdown passes and a 67.8 completion percentage while throwing 12 interceptions during his second season as a starter returned. His accuracy fell his accuracy, the Bengals organization's issues resurfaced as did his elbow issues, most likely as a combination of throwing to his surgically repaired knee.

His time at Cincinnati was over when the Bengals recorded a 4-12 record during the 2010 season. He was eighth time with the team. Palmer said he'd prefer to quit at 31 rather than playing for the Bengals in the future: "I have $80 million in my savings account. I don't need to play football to earn money. I'll just play to love the game , but that passion must be in another place. I'm willing to live my life to the fullest." Consider that for a moment: Palmer, the first overall selection in the 2003 Madden NFL 24 Draft, younger than both Tom Brady and Peyton Manning and was determined not to play football again at thirty-one. That's how much playing with the Bengals makes him a tad uncomfortable.

Bengals proprietor Mike Brown, who created his ever-present failure machine through financial prudence and nepotism, refused to accept draft picks that were free from a quarterback-starved league. "Carson signed a contract. He made a commitment. He gave his word," Brown said. "We trusted his word. We relied on his word. We expected him perform here. He's going away from his obligation. We're not going reward him for doing it."

Brown finally made it halfway through the 2011 Mut 24 coins campaign, sending Palmer to Oakland to receive a first-round selection as well as a second-round option that was conditional, one of the many reasons the Raiders have been able to remain far less successful as the Bengals over the past two decades.

There's a reason why the fervent fans of Oakland are cheering out of the Black Hole: because the collapsed star physics apply to the Raiders. As quarterbacks cross the Event Horizon of being an Oakland Raider the photons they madden 24 mut coins emit slow to zero, therefore we cannot notice them disappearing. We just end up looking away.

Palmer, however, achieved escape velocity after a trade with the Cardinals in spring 2013. He led in leading the Cardinals to a 10-6 mark which made him the first player to ever in Madden NFL 24 history to throw for more than 4000 yards on three different teams. He did even better this year, winning each of his six games as the Cardinals made their way to the top of the NFC. His 11 touchdown passes to three interceptions was the best ratio of his career.

And then, in Week 10 of the year after he was pushed to the turf against the Rams without touching and his ACL was torn yet again. In the end, it took Carson Palmer a decade to rebuild his career, but his revival was not sustained for the full duration of the season until he was struck by the same injury that ended his career at the beginning.
