Like I said, Palmer got a pass for his INTs. Some still give him a pass to this day.
What excuse...he used data to disprove the misnomer that Palmer threw INT's more frequently than what Dalton does.
You may not be one, or maybe you are, that spew that Dalton's advantage over Palmer is he throws for less INT. It is not true.
No intelligent poster would argue that Dalton is in the same league as Palmer as a pure passer...so the argument became "yea but Dalton throws less int's. Once again...not true.
See people who understand football understand big arm QB's are going to throw more Int's. Like homerun hitters are going to strikeout more. So Palmer gets a "pass" on Int's thrown 60 yards down the field when Dalton does not because he cant throw the ball 60 yards. Intermediate passes picked off because there is not enough zip on the ball drive any fan crazy whether it is Palmer , Dalton or anyone. My issue with Dalton's Int's are that they are not (or should not be) difficult throws. They are pretty shallow routes...he just does not have the arm to throw the long out over 25 yards...period.
