FOX Sports Ranks Former Bengals Passer Carson Palmer Among 10 Best Quarterbacks to Never Win…

CINCINNATI — FOX Sports ranked the ten best non-active quarterbacks to never win a Super Bowl recently and Carson Palmer checked in at No. 7 on the list. Boomer Esiason also made the list as an honorable mention.

Palmer did not get very close with the Bengals but did make it to the 2016 NFC Championship game with the Cardinals across a 14-year career.

"Palmer’s best shot at a Super Bowl arguably came in 2005, when he led the Bengals to an 11-5 record as he became one of the league’s best passers that season," The site stated. "But he suffered a brutal knee injury on his first dropback in the Bengals’ opening-round loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Palmer was able to get the Bengals back to the postseason a few years later in 2009, but he didn’t have a major breakthrough again until he joined the Arizona Cardinals in 2013.

"He quarterbacked Arizona to three winning seasons to start his time there, but he missed the Cardinals’ 2014 playoff appearance due to injury. Palmer was able to lead them to the NFC Championship Game in the 2015 season, but the Cardinals were blown out by the Carolina Panthers. Palmer’s career ended a few years later as he retired a three-time Pro Bowler."

Bengals fans are hoping Joe Burrow never sniffs this list when he hangs up the cleats. Only three quarterbacks have ever lost their first Super Bowl and gone on to win the big game (Len Dawson, Bob Griese, and John Elway), none occurring this century.

Burrow and Cincinnati are trying to win the AFC and punch a Super Bowl ticket this season for the second time in the 2020s.
