Well he was a 3x Pro Bowler.....

I put almost zero stock in pro bowls. Dalton was a long term average to slightly above average starter. My point was comparing him to a hall of famer just doesn’t make a lot of sense

He has actually done fairly well in the 2011-current time period. He's firmly in the above average range, IMO. Definitely not elite. I don't view him worse than Derek Carr, for instance. I would say he isn't worse than guys like Goff, Lawrence, etc. 

Maybe not a high bar to hit but he's(career wise) probably at the top of the #3 QB grouping(Elite, Near Elite, etc).

I started following football around the time of the Carson Palmer trade to the Cardinals, so not sure how he was prior, but I remember people saying he had a late career resurgence. Was he always pretty good or would he fit the mold?

He was pretty good with the Bengals, but he got hurt really bad in a playoff game early in his career.  That kind of messed him up for a while and his next stop was the Raiders.  When he went to Arizona, the coach was Bruce Arians who meshed really well with his playstyle.  Carson Palmer always had big time arm talent, and it's why he was drafted 1st by the Bengals.

I was coming into this thread to say Carson Palmer:

Dalton:

Exact same completion percentage. Both left Cincy around same age.

Dalton wasn’t a top QB in the AFC but you can be a pro bowler filling in for guys in the SB or don’t want to play.

Very similar. The 17 game averages reflect that Carson was a slightly more prolific passer.

Just trying to think back Carson had who in Cincy? Chad and TJ

Andy had AJ

Then Carson had Fitz in AZ

Andy hasn’t had much since leaving Cincy. I guess he had Lamb in Dallas but he was a rookie

He also had Bruce Arians as his coach in Arizona.  Very much a chuck it down the field nonstop style coach.  There are some similarities with Canales' offense in that regard.

      Our Buddy Chase Blackburn Fired

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/47371200/sources-rams-fire-special-teams-coordinator-chase-blackburn LOS ANGELES -- The Los Angeles Rams have fired special teams coordinator Chase Blackburn, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The move marks the first in-season coaching change that Rams head coach Sean McVay has made in his nine seasons in Los Angeles. Rams assistant special teams coach Ben Kotwica will take over and become the lead special teams coach, a source told Schefter. The Rams, 11-4 and second place in the NFC West, lost to the Seahawks on Thursday night in a game that included a Seattle punt return for a touchdown and a missed 48-yard field goal by Los Angeles kicker Harrison Mevis. The Seahawks (12-3) overtook the Rams for first place in the division and the top overall record in the NFC thanks to the 38-37 overtime victory. Though the Rams have lost only four games this season, three have involved special teams miscues. In the Rams' first loss of the season, 33-26 to the Eagles, Los Angeles had its final two offensive possessions end with blocked kicks. In the Rams' Week 10 victory over the Saints, kicker Joshua Karty missed an extra point and a 39-yard field goal attempt. After the game, McVay said the Rams' special teams issues "can't continue like this." Los Angeles replaced long-snapper Alex Ward with Jake McQuaide and Karty with Mevis, who had not missed a kick until Thursday night in Seattle. Blackburn, 42, was in his third season as the Rams' special teams coordinator. A former linebacker for the Giants and Panthers, he also has worked as an assistant with Carolina and Tennessee.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      It was a bad play from Icky but the OL didn't give up a sack until late in the 4th quarter and Bryce just stood there like he was canatonic. If our 3rd year number one overall pick can't overcome one single sack against a rebuilding Saints team that should only have 2 wins this season then it isn't ever going to happen   This is your quote. I mean I’ve quoted it twice. It was followed by calling people that defended him fugers and several other meltdowns I can also quote.    Shame you for working for a living??? Wow this is a whole new level to your victim mentality thing you like to do. You don’t have to watch games live. Or don’t spend an entire thread arguing about something you didn’t get the full picture of. I miss parts of games all the time. That’s just life. Not even going into the whole losing all respect thing.

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      By frankw · Posted

      Rams ended up firing ST coach and former Panthers coach Chase Blackburn after the loss. Sounds all too familiar.
