Most fans are smart enough to realize that - while he looks good right now - from 2007-2013 he was average at best. He's looked great over his last 9 games, but he's yet to be tested by any great defenses over that span. He's yet to play the Seahawks, so we'll see how he does there.

Outside of a few posters on these boards, I just don't see many NFL fans raving about Carson Palmer, sorry. Mainly just dudes on here that still pine for the former Bengals QB now that he's finally looking good again. 10 years later.

I'm not saying Palmer is great, but you also have to realize that a number of NFL franchises have been shuffling QBs for years and probably wish they could have secured Carson from the Raiders for a 6th round pick, too.  Also, I'm not saying Carson is Warner, but no one was talking about Kurt Warner's not so hot stint with the Giants when he was taking the Cardinals to the Super Bowl.  People live in the now...which is why Dalton being listed so low on the QB ranking is worth debating.
