RE: {The Ultimate 'ALL THINGS ANDY DALTON' Mega Thread} - Bengalfan4life27c - 11-03-2015

Is anyone else concerned that the "new" Dalton can return to the "old" Dalton once bad weather hits this season.

Considering that we win most of our games in the second half of the season the last few years im not too worried about Dalton. He will do fine.

Didn't he play incredibly well at the end of last year?

I'm less concerned after the game against Pittsburgh where the defense literally saved the day multiple times.

Sunday was a multi-turnover game for Dalton and you could see where he almost reverted to his old ways, but instead he snapped out of it and regained his composure.

The defense helped with that by getting the ball right back, several times.

He doesn't appear to be locking in on Green too much this season, so that alone is a relief.


RE: {The Ultimate 'ALL THINGS ANDY DALTON' Mega Thread} - XenoMorph - 11-04-2015

His game day jersey from Sunday is in Canton..... For tieing the most road wins in first 5 years (held by marino rothlesbuger and matt ryan) and first ever 7-0 start in franchise history.

(wonder if that gets replaced if he breaks the road record and we are 10-0 at arizona)

The top of his game, no doubt.

Kinda puts the "bad weather" nonsense to bed a bit.

Not sure about the top of his game (or "incredibly" well). Bucs, Browns, and Broncos he really didn't do much (passing). Both Steelers games he played well enough to win tho. But really top of his game? Maybe some need to look back at those games.

Saints and Texans were warm weather/dome games so that doesn't mean much as it relates to if Dalton is a warm weather/dome qb.

i believe the bucs game wasnt great... if its the one im thinking of wasnt he throwing up and had to have an IV at halftime (had a few ints in the first half) but came back and lead them to a win..

unless im thinking of a different year.

That was the game. He did play well against the Steelers in both games tho. Maybe that's what they are referencing. He ran the read option to perfection against the Broncos but didn't pass downfield much, and the Browns was the Hill show.

NFL.COM is trolling Confused
You can't call him a top 5 QB!  At least that's what I learned in this thread awhile back ago.


RE: {The Ultimate 'ALL THINGS ANDY DALTON' Mega Thread} - GreenCornBengal - 11-06-2015

Is it weird that Dalton didn't even play his best game, and still looked spectacular?

On to the Texans.


RE: {The Ultimate 'ALL THINGS ANDY DALTON' Mega Thread} - Big Boss - 11-06-2015

He's one TD shy of a 5:1 touchdown to interception ratio. Not bad.

2, I think. He's sitting at 18:4


RE: {The Ultimate 'ALL THINGS ANDY DALTON' Mega Thread} - jj22 - 11-06-2015

Dalton bounced back big after showing some cracks against the Steelers. A sign that maybe his hot start is here to stay.

You really need to stop playing this card, I've seen dozens of posts from you that are almost exactly like this one.

You seem like you're being intentionally dense. These rankings are for this year. Andy is playing like a top 5 QB this year. Not a single person here has refuted that.

The worst thing that anybody has said about Andy's performance is that he needs to do this for more than just part of a season to be considered on the Brady and Rodgers level overall. Is that really so bad??

We all love the way Andy is playing, yet some people still have to draw the "us against them!" line to act superior just because they were delusional about Andy's play in the past. His high level of play in 2015 doesn't mean that anybody was "right" for saying he was a top QB prior to this year, because guess what? He wasn't.


RE: {The Ultimate 'ALL THINGS ANDY DALTON' Mega Thread} - jj22 - 11-06-2015

The thing is qb's don't go from below average, ranked 22-32 (which is what we've been told he was regardless of his franchise accomplishments) to top 5. I asked people to name me one that has before an they can't. So someone was wrong.... Fact is the national media never let Dalton struggle like they do other qb's who they gave elite/franchise status to. His game against the Steelers was the first time he's ever got a pass from them. Some of these characteristics they claim has made him top 5....maturity, 4th quarter comebacks, recovering from mistakes (INT/Fumble), he's done his whole career. They just act like it's something new, and fans let them by acting like it's something new as well.

.....and he was also very young and cast in a very unique situation out of the gate, with no veteran mentor to learn from.  Not you, but I feel A LOT of people were overly critical of the kid.....and especially last year, where we managed to win with a MASH unit on offense.
