Joey B vs Andy vibe

[Forever Spinning Vinyl]

He's the first real QB the Bengals have had since Ken Anderson. Don't insult him and compare him to a fraud like Boomer Esiason. It's hilarious how Boomer is regarded as great and Dalton is shit on.

Both have pathetic post season numbers but the only three times Boomer's led any team to a winning season was when the Bengals were in the top 3 in rushing.

His "MVP" season.
Three 300 yard passing games
The 1988 Bengals had 10 games with over 150 yards rushing . . . seven of those games were over 200 yards

Boomer's Super Bowl Run
7-19 108 yards 2 sacks - - - Bengals 254 yards rushing
11-22 94 yards 1 TD 2 INT 3 sacks - - - Bengals 175 yards rushing
11-25 144 yards 1 INT 5 sacks - - - Bengals 108 yards rushing
29-66 346 yards 1 TD 3 INT 10 sacks for 58 yards so 288 total net passing yards in three playoff games
The Bengals did not win because of Boomer Esiason but people's memories tell them otherwise.

Palmer was just a great passer, he wasn't much of a leader. Dalton was more of a Brad Johnson/point guard distributor type and Jeff Blake had the great deep ball but couldn't hit a 15 yard pass when you needed it. Boomer won when he handed the ball off to a RB.
