"I always judge QB coaches by one or two plays a year where a DB makes a good return on an interception.  Nothing else makes any sense to me.  No need to look at interception percentage, completion percentage, yards, tds, wins, Pro Bowls or anything else.  Just the nunmber of interceptions that were returned for tds.  That is the only way to judge a QB coach."

No they are not. These are the worst mistakes a QB can make, throwing the ball to a place where it is easy for the
Defender to pick off the ball and take it the distance. Like i said, throwing an interception to a guy like Ed Reed is
different in the middle of the field and he takes it all the way. The guy is a returner at that point that made a great
play.

To act like a coach has nothing to do with his player making a mistake is making excuses for the coach as you do
all the frickin time.

This is a very common problem artound here.  Bengal fans see a Bengal player mess up and decide that the player and/or coach is terrible.  The problem is that they don't watch every game for every team so they don't see all threse other players on other teams making the same mistakes as much or even more than the Bengals.

Thanks for this Fred, atleast you brought up some stats that matter.

How many for Palmer in his career?
