Ask again, I mostly likely didn't notice it after being bombarded.

Fact is, you conviniently ignore the plight that the faiders are in with a much worse older QB. You are pointing at the Broncos and making up hypothetical scenarios based on your bias yet you are completely ignoring your own teams nasty problems.

I really do think you are KCPud. You are displaying his exact same qualities as a poster.

1. Palmer is younger than Peyton
2. I have no problem admitting to the Raiders' short comings.

Palmer also sucks, badly. Don't forget that. As for the Broncos, I'm excited about the future because of Manning, not in spite of him.

Palmer's not "that much" younger than Manning...

Manning: March 24, 1976
Palmer: December 27, 1979

Neither one constitutes "building for the future".

You're correct

Palmer is not all world ....ala Peyton....but he has been carrying an offense that is improving. But the Raiders have a very long way to go.

The difference is that we didn't invest future picks in our QB; but you did. Hey, I get it that you had few attractive options when Campbell was sidelined due to injury. But Palmer hasn't really been a solution; he's a journeyman stopgap that you paid an "elite" price for.

Niether did the current Raiders' staff. But they have to deal with it.

Judging by your AV you don't mind Palmer. But you have to admit USC QBs have problems in the pros. Barkley is the next to disappoint?

They are "running back U" not "quarterback U" , but hopefully Barkley can break that trend. Unless he goes to the queefs.

My point was: in light of the Palmer deal made by the Raiders front office, for Raider fans to criticize the Broncos' acquisition of Manning is like furiously hurling rocks from inside a glass house. J/S.

Manning + no draft picks for Indy is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>(exponentially a better deal than) Palmer + 2 high draft picks for the Bengals.

I agree with you, the Manning deal is a better deal. But that's not my argument.

Um... then what is your argument? It's obvious that you don't agree with us that it was a major coup to acquire a future HOF'er... who is currently playing like a league MVP. Manning appears to have been worth every penny Bowlen is paying him. And then some.

Nope, someone else said basically the same thing and I just said like I am telling you now that I am just giving a "flip side" to the Peyton signing.

I don't believe there truly is a "flip side" to the Peyton signing; a FA player is either worth the compensation that was given up for him... or he isn't. Manning clearly is worth it; the jury's still out on Palmer. *shrug*

Palmer is having a decent year for him. Unfortunately he will start sucking before Peyton and will likely be out of football before him as well.

Peyton was brought to Denver for 1 reason and 1reason only.....to bring a SB championship win to the Broncos. If that doesn't happen in his short time in Denver.....his signing is a complete FAIL.

Possibly

Speaking of complete fails.....I hear El Paso is really hip on New Year's Eve. I'm sure Matt Barkley will have a blast there.

While a SB win would be awesome, I adamantly disagree that it was the sole reason he was brought to Denver. He was brought in to win football games. But an additional motivation for acquiring an elite QB was to gain the public relations capital for shipping Tebow out of town. Had the front office not placed a clear upgrade on the roster first, there would have been howls of protest and outrage at the slightest hint that Tebow would not be the Broncos' starter on opening day 2012.

And the signing is already a complete success because we no longer have a QB controversy in Denver.

Palmer is 7-9 as a starter in oakland - Has thrown 22 touchdowns and 21 interceptions - Barely completing 60% of his passes. Great use of a 1st and 2nd round pick.

USC D doomed the season. It does suck.....but damn it! Fight on!

Most if not all of you are missing the point. I am not argueing that the Palmer trade was worth it. Heck, I am not even saying he is a great QB on par with Peyton. It's like talking to small children.

"But.....but....but......your QB and team sucks!"

If that's all you, the fan base, and the Broncos orginzation want out of this.......fail.
