I'm saying we should stike while the irons hot with AJ. Between his play last year and the salary/years remaining his value is at its peak, and we should capitalize on that.
Also I never said anything about all backup qb's being the same. I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't put words in my mouth like that. Ok, thanks!
Here is what you said

And you are contradicting yourself. You claim that McCarron's play last year gives him a high value, but then you claim we can do no better than .500 with him as a starter.
If he played well enough to be a hot commodity then why would we do no better than .500 with him starting? If the Bengals can do just as good with any other back up as McCarron then why would other teams pay more for McCarron than any other back up?
