LOL at the article. Although I gotta give him props on the charitable donations to family and neighborhood. But then again, if he goes broke (as he put it) it'll be because of them. Whatever.

Hard to tell, from the article, sounds like Jackson is throwing Palmer under the bus by having him go into the game when he was told he wouldn't play. Then again, he's a veteran and tried his best regardless.
"I was told I was not going to play," Palmer said. "I didn't know the offense, I also hadn't been training and working out. So it was a complete shock to me at halftime when [Coach Jackson] told me, 'Hey, you know we're going to get you in, in the third quarter.'
"I knew like about 15 plays and we ran the same 15 plays over and over again," he said. "I just said, 'All right, well that's what I'm here to do, I'm here to play football.' I was very uncomfortable and obviously not ready or prepared, but it's a game of unknowns, it's a game of having game plans when you go in and things change. My game plan was not to play but I ended up playing."

That f**k up was all on Hue Jackson. Instead of playing mind games, he should have given Boller all of the first string snaps that week, and if you say he sucks too much, then why was he the backup in the first place? Palmer clearly wasn't ready, and it was borderline irresponsible to throw him to the wolves.

A chance for the Oakland Benglas. RT @CorkOnTheNFL: Coach Jackson says WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh will work out for Raiders on Tuesday.

that is way worse than how we used to try to be the Ravens. At least the Ravens were good once in awhile.

Man...if there was ever a situation that demonstrated the importance of a GOOD back up QB this season..this is it.
If Alex went down...we'd go from 6-1 to 8-8 @ best I think.
Oh wait what am I thinking...we have Tolzien. 16-0 (the NFL would negate our loss due to Tolzien).

Nah. Tolzien will travel back in time to single-handedly "fix" the Cowboys game.

He tried, but was intercepted for a pick-6.

This is true, Tolzien is actually Scottish for flux capacitor
