I meant more like Dalton being the QB for 5 straight winning seasons but also being the QB for 4 straight losing seasons.  Dalton has a winning record as a QB here, but he also has a 2-14 season on his resume.  That's what I mean about highs and lows.  I'd say Palmer's biggest flop was the 2012 Raiders (but hey, he beat the Steelers for us!) and like Dalton's 2019 flop he had a slew of bad coaches and he was a lame duck QB on an issue-riddle franchise that was ready for a reboot.

Just my 2 cents.  I think Dalton and Palmer would actually have some camaraderie being Bengals QBs rather than this sort of rivalry we keep trying to invent.

When you consider the roster losses alone, going from 2015 to 2016 and forward, 7-9 in 2016 seems like more of a miracle job at QB by Andy, than anything.

Anyway, we can agree to differ on this, as I completely respect your opinions.
