This is a problem because people think he knows what he's talking about. So then JimBob Bengal fan thinks it's true and bitches and moans that we got AJ Mac with a cannon for an arm wasting away on the sidelines. 


What spin? He never said anything about Palmer's personal record

What proof do you have to show Andy has a stronger arm than AJ?  I don’t have any evidence either way and don’t really care. They both seem to have adequate arm strength to make good intermidate and short throws between the numbers. They both are less than adequate on deep throws and throws to the sideline.

Why mention him? Pretty simple. Most Dalton bashers have a (much) higher opinion of Palmer. Palmer and his abysmal 4-8 record vs the Steelers is a good chunk of Marv's overall 5-13 record vs the Steelers with other QB's. Btw...we're not going to pretend 4-8 is a respectable mark...right?

Palmer: 4-8 vs Steelers with a 76.7 passer rating 
Dalton: 3-10 vs Steelers with a 75.6 passer rating (this is counting his broken thumb "start")
Other QBs (Kitna, Fitzpatrick, McCarron): 1-5 vs Steelers with a 76.8 passer rating
Marvin Lewis: 8-23 vs Steelers (including playoffs)

Hmm...
