Andy Dalton is an absolutely awful QB

That's a fumble for any player. Touching the ground means zero if you were never contacted by the defense.

The ground can't cause a fumble in college, and can't in the NFL if a player is touched on the way down. Unfortunately, Andy wasn't touched and made one of the worse looking plays since the butt fumble.
