If you look at Carson Palmer's sack percentage in his career it's 5.12 24th best in NFL history and Andy Dalton is at 5.83 50th best in NFL history.
Both seemed to get shell shocked at times. Neither were or are as good under pressure as Kenny Anderson was.
Then you look at some of the best in NFL history in Brett Favre 4.91 for 17th, Tom Brady 4.88 for 16th, Matt Ryan 4.75 for 14th, Eli Manning 4.63 for 9th, Drew Brees 3.91 for 6th, Derek Carr 3.89 for 5th, Peyton Manning and Dan Marino tied for first with 3.13.
Then I see poor Kenny Anderson sitting at 8.17 and I think to myself that neither one of them could have survived in Anderson's time on the Bengals. I mean he did retire as the all time most sacked quarterback. But now the record belongs to Brett Favre, but that was because of the number of passes he threw. Lol
Good points. All of those guys you mention in the next to last paragraph chucked the hell outta the ball.
As for Dalton and Palmer, they both got skittish late in their time here (Dalton is still here of course), and both QBs had their lines go to shit late in their time here. Coincidence?
