Palmer about Kitna <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Mar 14 Geoff Hobson, of Bengals.com, reports Cincinnati Bengals QB Carson Palmer said Tuesday, March 14, he will miss his mentor, QB Jon Kitna, who signed with the Detroit Lions. In a statement issued through the team Palmer said, "I guess you could you say I have mixed emotions. I'm extremely happy for Jon and his family for the great opportunity he has there. But I also consider him irreplaceable as a player, as a teammate, and a leader in our locker room."</div> from kffl.com
Good stuff. The more I hear from Palmer, the more I think he's a class act. I also think the Lions got a good QB for the next several years. Finally they have someone who can throw to all those #1 WR's.
I think kitna is gonna play a similar role he played in cincy as a transition type player.... he'll get them outta hell and then someone else will take over much like we did with palmer
Jon Kitna= Class Act one of the classiest players in the league, I dont think I have heard a teammate ever be disrespectful in anyway towards him.
exactly i mean the guy wins comeback player of the year and gets benched and you dont hear a word from him... he will be missed
Jon Kitna broke the Lions single season record for completions today. He also went over the 4000 yard passing mark for the season and tied his personal best of 4 TD passes in a game. He did all this with an O-line desemated with injuries. Kitna claims this season was the most fun he's ever had as an NFL QB. JUST WAIT TIL NEXT YEAR!
Why what's going to happen next year? They mentioned early on in the game versus Dallas that the Lions might draft a WR. Hours later & I'm still laughing.

Here's why I think nay know its funny. 1) The Lions have other pressing needs on offense i.e RB. 2)It would be a shame if they gave up on Orlovsky. Kitna IMO can hold the for another year or two 3) It would absolutely and completely confirm what total utter cementhead Millen is. FTR, I never shed a tear over Daunte or Joey. I can't control DC's knee any more than your average Buffalo fan could w/ Willis McG's knee or BF1 can with Grossman's QBR.

In all fairness, To Zack's query in post #24 of the Pack vs Bears thread about the Eagles & Panthers could the Lions compete in the Big 10?
