That, and putting up better stats and passer ratings than Dalton. Palmer didn't play great, but he still played better than any Bengals QB in the Playoffs since Palmer left. Pure butthurt.
I've actually stood up for Palmer in this thread, but Dalton's season was just as good as Palmer's before he went down and Dalton's rating was actually better than Palmer's. As for the playoffs, Palmer sucked ass in 2009 against the Jets, so lets not pretend that didn't happen. If Dalton left here, he'd probably suddenly appear "clutch" or at least much better than he was here. Palmer is the proof. People just want to hate Dalton. Open your eyes.

Doing it with Michael Bush as his lead rusher and Heyward-Bey as his leading receiver basically put him into Jesus walking on water territory. Lol
His second year actually wasn't that bad. He put up his best QB Rating at the time since 2007 with a bunch of turds surrounding him.
Well in fairness he was 4-5 as a starter that year. They were 4-3 without him.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
