I'm of the opinion that Boomer could have turned the franchise around in 1998 and brought us to the playoffs. Apparently he got into a snit with the FO about personal they were releasing (as I recall, there was something about a back-up TE Boomer was fond of).
Kenny never did this, to my recollection. That, combined with the fact that he was a darn good QB... possibly the most underrated of all time.
As for Dalton, he has to take the next step. When and if...
In all fairness Kenny is the only one on the list that never had to deal with Mike Brown, either. I sort of feel like Boomer was the one who had to deal with Mikey TWICE at the peak of his tyrannical incompetence...just sayin'.
