7 years in and the Bengals have one outstanding 1/2 of a season and the rest are about the same. Not sure if the same guys thinking/giving Dalton years 8, 9, or 10 for the lightbulb to turn back on and shine brightly are the same guys wanting Marvin, Hill, Maualuga, LaFell, etc. gone or not? If so, they're hypocrites.

I agree to that. I can't see giving Andy Dalton 10 years to figure out this team, with the rest of the team (coach/etc) just being stagnant too. He has glimpses of what he used to be, stepping up into the pocket, driving the ball, etc. but his lack of progression reading and pump fakes/rollouts (maybe these are on the coach) limits our playmaking in the passing game. He is the definition of average QB, with a great team, he could have landed in the super bowl, but the chips all had to fall.
