Andy Dalton might not throw another incomplete pass...ever.
Seriously, though, I heard the postgame show discussing Jake Fisher and his versatility. They were describing him as "the first lineman off the bench" and how his athleticism would allow him to line up as the extra OT, etc.
My overreaction (it was his first game action) is that I thought he looked awful. Flopping on the ground. Whiffing blocks. Poor balance, etc. I even watched some of the replay when I got home, isolated on him, and it only confirmed the bad showing. I didn't get to the blocked punt at the end of the game, but I think he was the one that missed that block, too.
I remember way back when watching a very young Andrew Whitworth get destroyed at Indianapolis by their DEs and thinking "this guy is never going to make it", only to have him develop in to one of the best LTs in the league. Fisher is going to have a long way to go to try and replace Andre Smith next year, if that is the plan.
