He was also, in his fifth season in the NFL, awful down the stretch and in the playoffs with the #4 defense in the NFL. In other words, yes, many average NFL QBs could have taken that team to the playoffs....because that is what the Bengals had in 2009: an average NFL QB
Honestly, outside of that 5 TD explosion in the Bears game, 2009 was a pretty awful season for Carson.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
