No More Marvin Loyalty Means Whole New Look

Those wins were not just random.  I can't break it down by QB, but since 2011 only 8 teams have more wins against playoff teams than the Bengals and neither McCarron nor Driskel beat a team that finished better than 5-11.  The Bengals do have a losing record to playoff teams since 2011 but so do 28 other NFL teams.

Oh, you are the one who mentioned Andy and elite in the same sentence. Now you compare between Dalton and his backup QBs. That only proves that he's better than his backups, which one would generally assume.

Dalton is 3-12 against Pittsburgh.

Brady is 11-3 against Pittsburgh. 

Just to put out there how far away from elite we are talking about. We are miles out.

I'd like to find out what the new guy can do with Dalton to decide if it Dalton is any better or if Mediocre Marv was just holding him down or a combination of both of them really just being average Joes trying to play with the big boys in the league.
