I think before that injury in that 05 playoff game
Carson was just about equal of Manning and Brady.if not there he was darn close.
Palmer found himself in shootouts with the Colts
and Browns over time where he played as well as you could ask of a QB. the Bengals had some really porous defenses while CP was under center.
Carson could make any throw and was really good at ball distribution.
I thought Carson had a bit of a gunslinger mindset.
just look at 05 throw to Chris Henry.
1st possession Carson said lets attack them deep.
it worked then you know the rest.......
Carson was never the same after that injury.
the clock in his head sped up..forcing him to make errounous decsions as soon as the pocket shrunk.
to Andys credit. hes had to go through alot of OCs
Gruden..Hue..Zamp..Lazor..now Taylor..thats 5.
more than CP had to work with...
and Dalton has had a worse oline.
both QBs have shown when the pieces are in order...they can find the
end zone.
Carson had more egos strong personalities to deal with.
but CP had defenses that made Derek Anderson look like Warren Moon.
Andy had the weaker ollines but better defenses behind him.
its hard to say which QB is better but I think pre injury CP was better QB.
and as far as the TD INT....CP I think his stat line was 32 TD 12 INT
in that 05 season.
but I think his injury really affected his confidence in the pocket
