Dalton finished in the top 10 in passer rating just one season ('15). Palmer did it 4 times.
Dalton finished in the top 10 in passing yards just one season ('13). Palmer did it 8 times (4 times in top 5)
Dalton finished in the top ten in tds 3 times but never higher than 3rd. Palmer did it 6 times (led league in '05, 3 times in top 2)
Despite playing several years in seasons when the league average passer rating was lower than in Dalton's era, Palmer still has a higher career passer rating than Dalton.
A lot of people don't like Palmer for the way he left the Bengals, but he was a damn good QB. Better than Dalton.
he was very generous with them Pick 6's too towards the end.... 9 is just 6 going the wrong way...
Palmer overall had the arm talent over dalton and usually a better core of WRs to work with(i feel like we had a better run game back then too)... Daltons had AJ
Palmer had Chad and TJ and Henry for a bit... They brought in Coles for him ,Bryant* and TO.
I give dalton the edge in grit though. (had so many OC changes (5 ) while here... Palmer played in the same offense all his years here)
Overall i like both these guys its hard to compare guys directly that when they had different crews/coordinators
