That's why I don't get all huffy when the "experts" rate Geno the 63rd (?) best player in the NFL. It's why I don't care that Lawson didn't get as much love as TJ Watt. Or that the experts didn't think much of us bringing in Cordy Glenn, Preston Brown, Billy Price and Frank Pollack. Other than not firing Merv, I thought we had a very good offseason. Yet experts aren't impressed. *Shrugs*
I formulate my own opinions. Meanwhile the so-called experts will continue to pick guys like Kaepernick, Mariota, Preskott, Carr, Bridgewater, RGIII, etc over Dalton every year, and every year Dalton will keep plugging along while those guys regress or disappear.
Spot on Shake. Lots of these so called "experts" are so damn terribly wrong all the time. Rankings are a joke most
of the time. None of those "experts" had the Eagles ranked ahead of the Steelers and Patriots last season and guess
who won the Superbowl? Who had the Jaguars doing as well as they did? The Rams?
Last ranking i saw the Bengals were ranked like 25th in the NFL. This is after a 7-9 season and all the changes you
mention here that are all huge and make us a MUCH better team.
I like to look at the players on the field and judge for myself. Dalton is not the problem here. The stats and facts
prove it as Philhos says.
