Just a few points:
1) Important introductory point: Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_Warner#Arizona_Cardinals Warner didn't have a good year until 2008. From 2005-2007, on the Cardinals, his starting record was 8-18!! So even if Palmer is injured let's say or Stanton or a rookie end up playing this year... so. Before Warner (2004): 6-10. 2005 & 06: 5-11. 07: 8-8 (Warner 5-6 as a starter)...2008: Super Bowl.
2) Very similar biographies. a) left main career team (Warner-Rams, Palmer-Bengals) to a team that stank, then came to the cardinals. b) Check the ages of the two upon coming to AZ. Within 6m apart. c) numbers before arriving...

Is it likely that Palmer becomes Warner?
What does that mean?
Warner had 3 years of not starting to QBs that never started anywhere since then.
He led his team to a 9-7 record, got hot, went to the Super Bowl.
Next year 10-6, lost 2nd round.
Is that the most amazing thing of all time? Not really.
But it was AMAZING as a Cardinals fan.
Why is it not possible Carson Palmer in the Super Bowl?
