From an interview with Duke Tobin:
It looks like who is ever the guy is going to have Dalton as his guy as he heads into his ninth year and turns 32 in mid-season.
“We're very comfortable with Andy,” Tobin said. “We think he's got a number of years left. We feel like we can win with him. But with any position group, we don't just throw away the whole draft board at a group just because we're satisfied with who we have. We'll evaluate them and look at them and see if there's an opportunity to add a guy at every position.”
The right way to go about it. I don't find Duke Tobin to be as dumb as some.

To prove it, the Bengals have passed on QBs in the draft who would have, at the very least, given Dalton a run for his money.
Also, the team passed up an opportunity to trade for Phillip Rivers when he was available a few years ago.
Then there's that word comfortable again. That's Mike Brown talking. I guess he's not completely gone yet.
Eh, Dalton is a pretty solid QB. I don't think many teams would just act like he was a schlub. Solid starter with an accurate arm and one of the quickest releases in the NFL. Give the guy SOME credit. I can understand why you would be comfortable with him as your starter going into the regular season...
The postseason is yet to be determined under a new coach.
I don't necessarily think Mikey is behind Duke's quote here.
