What Andy is doing to cut down turnovers.

He's a gunslinger (sure he lacks the arm that some like Farve have so he doesn't get away with the turnovers Farve and other's have gotten away with over their careers) and probably is less effective when he's playing scared to death to turn the ball over. Besides we saw last season it didn't really do much for him, and never let him get into a rhythm.

Sure I thought cutting his attempt would help, but it didn't. So they need to move on and let him throw. At least he'll get the yards and td's.

Folks would be surprised at how many "elite" qb's have far surpassed Daltons INT's high of 20 multiple times over their career. But because they are perceived to have strong arms they keep their elite status and get excused. Get called gunslingers etc....

Folks on this board even slam Dalton for his high INT's while claiming some of these other qb's are better even though over their careers they have far surpassed 20 int multiple times. Big Ben, Eli, Cutler..... The list goes on. Many of which has far surpassed Daltons Int high. Many multiple times over their careers.

Problem is all those elite guys, and the three you mentioned, all have what Andy does not.........Playoff wins, quality performances in the Playoffs, and the ability to carry their offense (sans Bad Jay Cutler). Guys are considered elite because they are the best at their position. They show up and show out more often than not. Allowing Andy to throw it a ton goes against the offensive strengths the Bengals currently have. The have a quality line, two good RB's, one elite WR, and some question marks at TE and WR234. Also, given Andy's predilection towards INT's, throwing it a bunch just means the chances of playing from behind increase. Running the ball better should make Andy more efficient, because as the game goes on, he'll likely get quality looks via the play action game. It's a win win.
