3-10 is worse!!!!
Most football fans (as opposed to Dalton fans) have a much higher option of Palmer than Dalton.
This is why looking deeper into stats is important...
In his 12 games against the Steelers as a Bengal, Palmer had 5 games with a rating over 80. In 13 games, Dalton has also had 5.
Palmer had a sub-60 passer rating 4 times, while Andy has only had 2 so far, and their passer rating is almost identical vs the Steelers as a Bengal.
Palmer led teams scored 20 or more 4 times, while Andy's teams have done it 5 times.
Carson threw for 250 or more yards just once against them, while Andy has done it 4 times.
Bottom line, two different QB's, with pretty much the same end results against the Steelers under Marvin...and any narrative that Dalton's play has somehow been worse doesn't really bare out.
