There’s a lot wrong here...
First of all, plenty of QB’s would “survive” behind this OL. Andy Dalton is not some iron man that’s tougher than most other QB’s.
Also, Dalton’s line up until 2016 was actually pretty good. Center was the one weak spot, but Palmer never had a good Center after Braham went down either. AJ being better than Chad is debatable. It’s close enough I’d almost consider it a draw.
And how were Palmer’s TE’s better? He had Gresham in his rookie year, and that was it. Dalton has had Gresham and Eifert.
Dalton also had better OC’s like Hue and Jay.
