well...who's MVP of that team...Odom or Benson? It's certainly not Palmer. One or two good drives a game, regardless of when they happen, doesn't make you a top tier NFL QB.
Palmer might be the 12th best QB in the NFL...sure, I am impressed he has stayed injury free thus far and has only been sacked 10 or 11 times...(which is low for him)...but you can't tell me that Benson coming out of nowhere and carring the ball 111 times and totally dominating the Ravens on the ground doesn't make him AT LEAST equally, if not more, valuable than Palmer.
If Cassel had a horse like that peeling off 4.5 YPC 25-30 times a game...I think he'd have a lot more time to make plays to receivers that were actually OPEN.
