...and Ross just happened to figure everything out after Marv left. Total coincidence. 
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

Seems like the light is flickering on for Ross. I say flickering because he is still dropping some catchable passes because his mind is still racing and he just want to make a play. Glad to see he is doing well. I wonder when Green joins the team how that will affect Ross's production.

Dalton is on pace to have the most passing attempts in a season in the history of the NFL, so I should hope one of our WRs is putting up numbers, too.

Good to see him putting it together in year 3 like Boyd. WR is definitely not a problem.

There is certainly signs of life from Ross, still needs to get over the case of the drops he has from time to time on some pretty routine catches.

Maybe Dalton and Ross will demand trades?

If he can end the season with a 3rd of that projection I'll be happy.

Ross, too little too late. I hope he stays a Bengal forever and suffers equally.

Good for Ross and good for Andy.
Honestly have no idea how Andy has done as well as he has done with our pathetic o line and worse running game.
