Seriously...look at what you all are doing. Bending over backwards to make excuses for a guy that time after time, couldn't get the job done. 

Great human being. Charitable. Nice. Family man. Christian. Average QB who doesn't play well under pressure. That can all be true simultaneously. 

But damn. Can we stop with the endless excusefest and freaking move on? Who CARES if someone comes on here and says he sucks or he was terrible or yadda yadda. Just freaking stop already. 

Because, there is a large contingent of this fan base who does not want to admit that the bengals wasted 9 years of the franchise with a bottom tier starting QB.   They all love Andy and cant stomach that they adored a noodle arm loser for nearly a decade. (There is the same group of Reds fans who adore Joey Votto despite the fact his contract has crippled the team and he's been about a 0-1 WAR player for the last 4 years combined). 

Fast forward 3 years, and 3 more teams later, and they are still carrying that mantle to protect their guy. 

It is really weird.  I have only noticed this in Cincy, tho.   Our fans have been devoid of competent sports for 95% of their lives, so this is what  happens. 

These are the same people who try and discredit Burrow and what he has been able to do.  They are so upset that Burrow did more in 1.5 years than Dalton has done in his career of epic/hilarious failures.  

I get true amusement out of watching Dalton blow - only now it's funny cause it is for other teams I can bet against.
