Silver Article on Palmer
(10-03-2015, 12:53 PM)GreenCornBengal Wrote: Jumpin in here out of the blue. I think people like/dislike a QB for more emotional reasons whether they admit it or not.

There are statistics that show both guys are good QBs, but if they don't pass the 'eye test', then all logic is thrown out.

Both Dalton and Palmer have left some 'emotional scarring' on the fanbase which clouds their opinion of those players.

I mean, I get it.... I hear there are Eagles fans that dislike Donovan Mcnabb...

You can pull out the most concrete stats to prove a point, but in the world of football, once someone has decided their stance on a player, it rarely changes.

Carson made 2009 one of the most entertaining Seasons in recent history as a Bengal fan... thank you Brian Leonard hahaha

I certainly agree.  The funny-ish part is that I'm from Pittsburgh and I was born in 1981 and my father had been a huge Steelers fan since he was conscious of sports in the 50s.  But local people badmouthing Terry Bradshaw (even while he was winning Super Bowls) and cheering when he got injured and his career ended in 1983 turned him and his brothers into Steeler-haters which paved the way for my Bengal fandom in the 80s and onward.

The only reason I brought up his stats was because someone used his 2009 statline as evidence that my eyes did deceive me and Carson was NOT actually contributing to that winning season.  Apparently what I saw was a farce, because stats tell the whole story when people want them to, and then they are worthless and misleading when it's convenient too.  But like you said, minds aren't going to change around here, so to each his own.
