The Madden NFL 23 is cruel and sour for a variety of reasons from MacMillanwu's blog

The pass is spectacular it's a long, parabolic arc that smacks Chris Henry in stride on the right sideline, resulting in the 66-yard distance. It was the opening play of the 2006 Wild Card game against the Steelers The longest pass played in Bengals playoff history, and the final game of his brief time as an elite quarterback in the NFL. The play concludes with Madden 23 ltds coins for sale Henry taking a beating at the Steelers' 22 and Palmer fell to his five, lying on his back and writhing after Kimo von Olhoeffen hit him low and shredded his MCL and ACL.


This is not to say Palmer hasn't been a good player since He was quickly healed and played all 16 games in his sophomore year (no easy task; just look up Robert Griffin III) and even made it to the Pro Bowl. But the Palmer that was in the year 2005 who topped his team in Madden NFL 23 with 32 touchdown passes and an 67.8 completion percentage while only throwing 12 interceptions during his second year as a starter appeared. His accuracy dropped as the Bengals organization's dysfunction resurfaced and he had to contend with elbow injuries, probably the consequence of throwing on his surgically repaired knee.


His time in Cincinnati was over when the Bengals recorded a 4-12 record during the 2010 season. Palmer was eighth with the team. Palmer said he'd prefer to retire at 31 than to play for the Bengals again: "I have $80 million in the bank. I don't need to play football to earn money. I'll play it just for the joy of football but it will require a different place. I'm prepared to live my life to the fullest." Consider that for a moment: Palmer, the first overall pick in the 2003 Madden NFL 23 Draft, older that both Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, was ready to never ever again play football at an age that was 31. This is how much playing for the Bengals can be a drag.


Bengals the owner Mike Brown, who created his perpetual failure machine through the use of nepotism and frugality, was unwilling to accept draft picks that were free from a quarterback-deficient league. "Carson signed a contract. He made a promise. He kept his word." Brown said. "We relied on his words. We trusted his words. We expected him perform in this regard. He's going to walk away of his commitment. We're not going to reward the man for his actions."


Brown finally broke through halfway into the 2011 seasonby sending Palmer to Oakland for a first-round draft pick and MUT 23 ltds coins a conditional second rounder, one of many reasons why the Raiders have remained more unsuccessful than the Bengals over the last two decades.
