Come on Daton to the Bears.
I'm 100% with you on Dalton going to the Bears. I liked Andy, still do, and if he's not going to be playing for the Bengals having him on my hometown team is the absolute next best option. Trubisky is awful, like Gus Ferotte on the Bengals left-handed pass attempt bad. I've watched several Bears games this year and good god he's completely clueless. You put Andy on that team and they're dangerous in the NFC.
I stuck with Boomer when he left, even got a Boomer Jets jersey and would have gotten a Cardinals one if I could have found it (curse you mid 90's lack of internet shopping!) but Palmer was dead to me immediately. The dude outright quit and said "I can't win with this team" and the team went on to 5 straight playoffs immediately after he was gone. To an extent I get why people don't vilify Palmer like I do, and I don't blame them for still liking the guy, but he's 100% the one I won't ever forgive. Win more games than you lose and you buy yourself the benefit of the doubt, win 47% of your games and stay at home crying like a spoiled brat and you don't. Also, I'm convinced he embellished that elbow injury in 2008 like Cordy Glenn with a concussion.
