Virgil Carter, 1970........7-20.....64 yds....0 td....1 int.....23.7 passer rating
Ken Anderson, 1973....14-27...113 yds....0 td....1 int.....47.3
Boomer Esiason, 1988.. 7-19...108 yds....0 td....0 int.....56.5
Carson Palmer, 2005.... 1-1  .... 66 yds....0 td....0 int....118.7
Andy dalton, 2011.......27-42....252 yds...0 td....3 int..... 51.4

The bar is so low that it is possible that his game will be better than most of these.

Its gonna be hard to lower the bar. Carson should get an * because it was just 1 pass.
