You can't have one without the other.
No he doesn't have to be accurate. Green can make the adjustments if the balls are off target.

Much worse than Bernard who has put up some big seasons that have gone under the radar. We're talking 1200 plus total yards and 8 TD kind of seasons.
In a big market like Philly, Bernard would have gone to 3 pro bowls minimum.
Sproles made the Pro Bowl as a return specialist. Over those three seasons he led the league in PR yds twice, PR tds twice and finished first in average yds per PR one year and 2nd another.
I like Gio a lot, but he has never played at a Pro Bowl level. You give me the years you think he should have been selected and I'll give you 5 AFC RBs who had better seasons.

AJ Green makes spectacular catches but that isn't every ball thrown to him more often than not they are on target and into tight windows because AJ gets a lot and I mean a lot of double teams.
You are trying to tell everyone how inaccurate Dalton is and tell us Driskel is better in the same breath.
As truck says...Just Stop.

Doesn't matter if Green makes adjustments. Every WR in the league can make adjustments. If the pass is off target a defender will knock it away.

What is this "All Pro bias"?

The AP press thats what's biased. The media selects the All Pro team.

Not the circus catches Green makes. He won't knock it away if Green is wide open and Dalton shanks it over his head by 10 feet. Go watch the games.

You have to be joking. Green makes the most circus catches in the league. Some of those deep throws are way off target and he catches them.
Look at how Dalton can't complete a deep ball to Ross. That's because Ross can't make those circus catches on deep balls. Watch the games instead of convincing yourself Dalton's deep balls are the best you've ever seen.
You don't even listen. Just be gone. I said Driskel, plus a free agent qb, a first round qb, a good right tackle, and a good linebacker is better than Dalton.
These Bengals boards should have more honest fans and not Dalton's family members in here defending him.

However, if Merv or Hue is the HC next season, it won't really matter much will it?

What people are saying, actually, is, that he is better than he gets credit for. People are also saying, Driskel is not the answer, this year is a bad draft for QBs, and if you trade him, you're going to need to find someone at least comparable to have any measure of success.
These 2 posts are pretty much where I'm at. I'm fine with changing the QB and it'd be great if we could upgrade...BUT...Dalton has been a fine QB for us and we won't be winning any playoff games until there are serious changes with this organization, especially at Head Coach. Part of me would love to see Dalton with a new offensive minded HC, but that could be here or elsewhere.

How about Jerome Simpson, Andre Caldwell, Andrew Hawkins, Jermaine Gresham.
How about Armon Binns, Greg Little, John Ross, CJ Uzomah and Brandon Tate?

I'd say his first two seasons he was close to pro bowl. He averaged over 1200 yards and 8 TD's those years. That's a comparable production total to AJ Greens production as a receiver those years. You might think that's chump change but that's a significantly important piece to those Bengals offenses.

If the case, AD would have 50% of his interceptions removed because in your eyes Green catches everything. Have you see all of the picks when AD has thrown to Green?
RE: Driskel should be starter next year - wolverine515151 - 12-17-2018
Every years the starters are ranked based on qb rating. He has ranked above average only one year , 2015 , and yet you think he's above average. HE ISN'T ABOVE AVERAGE!!!!!!!!!!!
Every other single ***** year he's had 1 average ranking of 15, and every other year it is below average where he ranks 17 to 25.

Picks happen to every target if you throw it to them enough, so what. Most of those picks can't be blamed on Green. Green can make adjustments on most balls unless Dalton shanks one 5 yards wide.

He has actually had 2 seasons 2013 and 2016 we're he was ranked in the top 16(both 15th) and 1 where he was 2nd 2015. In 2017 he was ranked 17th and in 2014 he was ranked 25th.

There have been multiple articles posted in this thread that says different.
Show one peice of evidence by actual source not bloggers (PFF, Pro football reference ESPN NFL.com) besides you saying how inaccurate Dalton is at any level short mediate or long.
I will make a sig bet you can't.

Wrong, one season he's had an above average ranking at 2, one season average ranking with a 15 , and all the others were below average rankings between 17 and 25. I just looked it up.

By watching the games as evidence. Here's evidence for the past two years he is below average on deep balls. He's ranked 23.

If you actually read the article that is from a blogger Brickwallblitz the link is in the first few paragraphs.
He also says Ryan Tannwhile is a top 5 QB lol.
This is from pro football focus 2017. Dalton had a 90 passer rating on deep balls in 2017 and a 95 passers-by rating from 2011 to 2016.

Who cares about his qb rating on deep balls. YOU CAN'T USE QB RATING FOR DEEP BALLS. It isn't accurate.
You can throw a deep ball 50 yards for a TD and get a 158 rating. Another 50 yard deep ball at the one yard line gives you a 118 rating. The difference that each throw produces is 0.3 points yet there's a huge difference in qb rating of 40 points.
Do you understand the logic of that because if you don't just lurk back to your cave.
Dalton threw 3 for 16 2 TD and had a qb rating of 105. 3 for 16 is terrible on deep throws. It scored high because a couple of those were TD's
It would be nice if theyd give the whole list, but they didn't.
