I know that it's dangerous to play the "what if" game, but if Palmer hadn't gotten injured, where would the Bengals have ended up that year? If Andy doesn't go down with the thumb injury leading up to the 2015 playoffs, I felt confident that that team was destined for the big game. That 2015 defense was freaking awesome!
Four different QBs, one result. Teams were always too tight and choked when it mattered, no matter who was under center. Palmer was not hurt in 09, and Dalton wasn't hurt in '13. There were no excuses.
