It is what it is.
That said...I think Palmer vs Andy is a toss up. They're both good. Both had their big seasons, both had down years. Overall they had a lot of success. Palmer has the bigger arm and I think that's all some are capable of looking at. That arm enabled Palmer to make some throws Andy can't, but the arm also got Palmer into trouble at times (forcing it). He was more turnover prone than Andy. Softer than Andy. Both were/are generally accurate but have sporadic moments. Think of those INT's Palmer threw when we faced them in AZ. Arians was looking at Palmer like "WTF". Palmer was just as good for that as Dalton is.
But the good moments by FAR outweigh the bad. That goes for both. Again, some just can't get past draft status and "big arm".
Nice response other than Palmer is softer than AD!!!
That is truly laughable. How do you make that type of BS statement? Based on what? CP telling this turd of a owner to kiss his ass? His ability to return from serious injuries? His ability to shoulder the blame for diva receivers and poor coaching, time and time again? The statements of his strong leadership by the likes of Larry Fitz and other HOF’ers? Who has ever said AD is “strong” or a leader. Of all the Bengals quarterbacks you mentioned earlier in the post AD gets rattled the quickest and Melts under the pressure quicker than any of them.
AD has had the advantage of the strongest roster top the bottom of ANY Bengals quarterback of all time. He has done nothing with it when it is nut cutting time.
BTW this is the all things AD thread...just saying
