Carson Palmer is Overranked This Week (1 Viewer)

[G-King]

Then answer the question. You're making the prediction. You must have some numbers you think Palmer is likely to put up.

I'm pretty sure I'll do what I want to do in my thread. And yes I've projected for Palmer, I project for all of my tough WDIS decisions.

CP29-45325 yds3 TD2 PickStep up, son. Put some numbers out there.

A) I'm a master at generating discussion, you are notB) I project ranges, not static values...projecting static values is for "simpletons"

Please do not piss in the Shark Pool. Thanks.

Uhhh...guy just called me a simpleton a few post before this one which is why I quoted "simpleton"....perhaps you're looking at the wrong guy???

Perhaps you should answer the man's request

Man, believe it or not, but somewhere between all this "seeing who's got the biggest wee-wee" there is some good info to consider. Are you guys brothers or something? JEEZ...ANYWAY- I am concerned about the Pats using multiple backs and daring the Bengals to run, which could effect CP's #.

You might think that, except not many teams have passed on NE this year.

The Patriots have allowed the second least passing yards this year (133 per game.) LINK

That's actually pretty impressive considering the Pats have dominated their first 3 opponents. To only give up 133 yards per contest when the other teams are playing from behind half the game? That's damn good pass defense. Although... one of those 3 teams WAS Buffalo.

Well the Pats have a very good pass defense, but it's not like teams are throwing the ball 40 times against them. They've only defended 82 passes this year, seventh fewest in the NFL. The Titans, along with the Vikings, have seen the most pass attempts in the league, with 117.

Palmer vs. tough Pats D. Not top 5 this week... Way to go out on that 2" limb.

Everybody has him ranked high...looking forward to your insightful threads.

[Sleeper 43]

I'll stand by the 50+ attempts though,

, nothing wrong with a projection...we'll see how it turns out. Thanks for putting out a ballsy projection.

Unless you think they plan to have Watson carry the load.

So, in your opinion, the only way Palmer doesn't meet your expectations is if "Watson carrys the load?"

Yeah theres 2 things you can do on offense.... run or passIf my RB1 is out, passing is my teams strong suit in the 1st place AND I'm playing a high powered offense, I think I'd favor the pass over the run.....If Marvin loses this game do you think he rather lose on the arm of Carson Palmer or the RB2 whomever it may be?

 

[LHUCKS]

I think they'll try to win with the pass, but that doesn't mean they'll be successful, nor does it mean they'll reach 40 pass attempts.

This MB is constantly a pissing contest and it's not even a fun one. Either shut up or start posting photoshopped pictures demeaning each other.

Palmer

266 yds

2 TD's

1 INT

7 rush yards

1 fumble

3.5 sacks

9 hurries

This is where losing C. Henry really hurts the Bengals, I think he would have a monster game. With Rudi out they Pats don't have to worry about the run so they will focus all their efforts on stopping CJ/Housh. Belichick is the master at taking players away and making them go to someone else, problem is is that there is no one else. They get pressure on Palmer and I don't think it will be real pretty.

Pats are going to dominate time of possession and think they'll win easily.

This is what I'm thinking, which is why I don't see Palmer's upside being what others appear to believe it to be.

Well, that is an interesting note, but I still think you being a little misleading. The Patriots are tied for the 3rd best yards per attempt at 5.9. Denver is #1 with 5.6 ypa and the worst 4 defenses are 50%+ more at 8.6-10. That stat neutralizes the number of attempts. It is still impressive to me to have 5.9 ypa when your defense is playing against opponents 3-4 TDs down in the second half. Aside from St. Louis, which I think is one of those anomolies (since they suck), they have the fewest 20+ yard completions. Denver also only has 3, but Denver has 1 40+ as well, whereas NE has 0 40+. To only have 3 20+ yard completions over 3 games, when you have won by 24, 24, and 31 points, is really startling to me.By the way, the only thing I can think of on the # of attempts being so low is that Brady's completion % is so ridiculous that their time of possession is amazing. Just checked NFL.com and the Patriots TOP is 103 minutes, which is #1 in the NFL.

 

[joeski]

A) Last year Palmer passed for 245 yards and zero TDs against a lesser Patriot defense

B) The Pats are by far and away the best defense in the NFL thus far allowing only 207 yards per game

C) The Bengals are coming off an uninspiring performance agains the Seahawks

D) Rudi Johnson is out

Why are people ranking Palmer in their top 5 starts this week?

Ok so I should put under ranked Culter in?

In due time

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd like to see these "projected ranges" before the early games kick off today. It really wouldn't be fair to project a range outside of the top 5 when you already know what the top 5 is shaping up to look like.

I expect he will post them about 9PM PST Monday night.

Some great work in here by LHUCKS

[Limp Ditka]

Good guess.....Wake me up when you post your " projected ranges"

 

[LHUCKS]

Good guess.....

:11:sometimes I wonder why I even waste my time in here...why do the mods let these hacks ruin threads?

LHUCKS is like the contrarian indicator of fantasy football prognostication. If LHUCKS says to sell, then you buy. And if LHUCKS says to sell a former Pac-10 Heisman trophy winner, then you definitely BUY!Palmer played poorly in last year's game vs. NE because he was under constant pressure and was hit repeatedly. He was sacked 4 times and fumbled twice which setup a couple Patriot TDs that turned it into a blowout. I think he should have better protection this time around. And unlike last year when the Bengals suffered the letdown after the big win against the Steelers, this year they will be more focused against the best team in the league. I like Palmer this week. I think his floor is 275 yds and 2 TDs.

I think NE is the only dominant defense in the NFL. NE has ZERO rushing threat to worry about and I think Palmer throws 3 INt's as NE will be able to show multiple formations and confuse the heck out of Palmer. I'm not going to say he isn't going to throw a TD pass but he certainly isn't going to put up the kind of numbers he has in the past few weeks.If you asked me is he going to finish top 5 this week in fantasy stats for QB, my answer would be NO, he will not.

Not bad, didn't have 3 Int's but certainly was held in check.
