Andy Dalton is still the quarterback

[kramer1]

We have no chance. Just sayin'.

 

[cincygrad]

At least Marvin isn't coaching and Mike Brown isn't the owner anymore....

..... Wakes up.

Shit.

Welcome to hell. Sit down and shut the hell up. Thanks.

Seriously? Do any of you actually watch the sport of football or do you follow soccer all season and then peek in occasionally during the NFL season?


Andy Dalton’s numbers are virtually identical to a young Peyton Manning’s | For The Win

How bad do you think things would get if Andy got hurt?

 

[Tubbs1518]

Meh, we may be down for a year, but then we get the chance to take a real QB.

Any how many of the top 10 Quarterbacks are under 30? We would be down way longer than that.

There's nothing so far that leads me to believe that even if Dandypants shits the bed again this year, leadership will give any thought to draft a new QB

How many top 10? I'd say 2 or 3. But in the next few years a lot of the top guys could very well be retiring. Manning, Brady, Brees, Romo, Ben are all getting up there.

We won't be replacing Andy Dalton. Just not gonna happen with this coach/front office. No matter how god awful he is.

They basically banished AJ McCarron to the netherworld because they're so afraid he might actually outperform him in a damn preseason game. I fully expect him to be cut. Can't have competition around here after all. Might upset the status quo of mediocrity.

Wow. I was just coming on here to apologize for a possible kiss of death, when I called you guys to win the SB this year.

You seriously don't know how lucky you guys are. I'm not saying he's elite, but Dalton is more than capable to lead this offense... like he has been doing. You'd think a Bengals fan would be satisfied making the playoffs and having a shot year in year out. His weapons were completely destroyed last year. Exactly what did you expect him to do with Sanu being his only option? Yet he still led you to the playoffs in a tough division.

Gimme a break.

Watch some football for cripes sake.

Why? Because we sucked in the 90s? Shouldn't fans of all 32 teams want to win playoff games? Every team has the same salary cap. Every team plays under the same rules. Every team is owned by a white dude with tons of money.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him replaced in two years...... If the team were to royally tank (which I think would be difficult with the talent on the team), they could go for a reboot. Remember that Dalton starts costing them a lot of money next year.

And you think Andy Dalton is the reason you lose playoff games? Would you rather Matt freaking Cassel? Dalton was a top five QB two years ago. He had absolutely no help last year. And this (maybe I'm mistaken), wasn't Atkins out?

Just take a step back. We'll gladly take The Red fella off your hands. Then you can cheer for McCarron and be happy.

 

[Cincyfan78]

AJ MC can't even stay healthy enough to get on the field, and when he has been on the field, he hasn't been impressive by all accounts.

The dream that he is better than Dalton is a fantasy.

The team will live and die by the right arm of Andy Dalton, once again. It just simply "is what it is" at this point.

Yes..... It's him and it's Marvin. We don't play well in big games. Big games often come down to good quarterbacking and good coaching. You do the math.

As for Buffalo's situation..... I hear ya.... You guys are in purgatory. You have an excellent roster with a potentially dominant defense, and you can likely make the playoffs. Then you have to hope Matt Cassel wins the game - Probably not happening. The problem is that your team will be too good to get a high draft pick, but not good enough to win a playoff game. Welcome to our world.

Not in your world yet. 15 long years here. Crazy, but I hope Tyrod Taylor beats out Cassel and we roll with that. Cassel is a one trick pony and everyone knows the trick. Also hoping for someone like Mettenberger getting obtained... long shot though. I couldn't even complain if we sign Cutler next year! Gross, I know. So yeah, I'd welcome Dalton with open arms.

I do agree with you on Lewis. Put Bruce Arians there and you would probably be agreeing with me about a SB on the horizon.

 

[kramer1]

Andy Dalton.....hahahahahahahaha

Is TKO really Ken Broo? Broo loves him some Dalton.

 

[cincygrad]

It's funny what happens when you don't have a quarterback. You find yourself hoping that Tyrod Taylor is your starter and that Zach Metternberger somehow makes it to your team.

Is it really this hard to train quarterbacks? Are there really only 12 guys that are capable of playing the position at any given season?

Yes and Yes. Offensive coordinators have turned checkers into chess. Football players, on the whole, are retarded. Do the math.
