Possible big point of interest for next week's game: Carson Palmer OUT this week

Don't want to distract too much from the all the foreskins bashing. Just saw this on rotoworld and wanted to pass it on:

Carson Palmer-QB- Bengals Sep. 28 - 11:36 am et


Carson Palmer will be the Bengals' No. 3 QB on Sunday.

Get him out of your lineup. Palmer's elbow swelled up and Ryan Fitzpatrick will get the start. Fitz is heady as a Harvard alum, but is very inexperienced and could struggle even against the Browns. It's bad news for Chad Ocho Cinco, Antonio Chatman, T.J. Houshmandzadeh, and Ben Utecht (assuming Utecht plays). Look for Chris Perry to get the ball early and often Sunday.

Carson Palmer has not, and would not have been, the threat he once was. Cincy is AWFUL.

From a fantasy football standpoint - the only guy worth playing on that team this week is Chris Perry.

Agreed.

Palmer almost gave us a gift and nearly bumped off the g-men last week.

Here's a update from PFT:

NO STRUCTURAL DAMAGE FOR PALMER
Posted by Mike Florio on September 28, 2008, 11:56 a.m. EDT
Though Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer will be the No. 3 quarterback on Sunday against the Browns, his injury doesn’t appear to be a serious issue.

Per Adam Schefter of NFLN, an MRI revealed inflammation in Palmer’s elbow, but no structural damage.

And due to the rescheduling of their game against the Texans due to the postponement of the game between the Ravens and Texans, the Bengals now have five games until their bye. Originally, they were scheduled to have a bye in Week Eight.

As a result, it’ll be two extra weeks until Palmer can get some rest without missing game action.
