I go back and you follow what the rule book says and you go about your business and you work, and if they tell you not to do it and then you get busted, and what happens happens, then you suffer the consequences.Im sure you guys look at it a lot differently, but I know a lot of players around the league just looking at it; I dont know if you can feel too strongly one way or the other.Palmer and the Cardinals host the Patriots on Sunday night in the season-opening game for both teams. Jimmy Garopppolo will start at quarterback for the Patriots, with Brady serving a four-game NFL suspension as part of Deflategate penalties.ddddddddddddWhen Palmer was asked on the conference call if it was his perception that rules were broken, he said, I dont know, to be honest. Supposedly the balls went somewhere when they werent supposed to go there. There was humidity, or not enough humidity, or altitude or whatever it was. I dont know. I didnt follow the story. As soon as it came on, I just turned it off because I was so sick of hearing about it.Whatever the league comes down upon, and whatever ruling they make is what they make. You dont have much of a decision after that. You can fight it for a little bit, but after a while, you just have to abide by what they say. ' ' '
