Carson Palmer’s 2014 season ended with the second torn ACL of his career, which typically doesn’t bode well for a quarterback who’s about to turn 36. In that vein, no one will blame you if you didn’t see the best year of his career coming. Palmer set new career highs across the board, and helped lead the Cardinals to the NFC Championship Game, where they fell to the Panthers.
