There’s a lot to like about Andy Dalton but what impresses me is how he can fit himself into almost any offensive scheme and make it work. At TCU, Andy ran a read-option/Ohio River* hybrid then he quickly mastered the Jay Gruden, Hue Jackson, and Bill Lazor offenses in Cincinnati — and we have to admit Bill’s schemes are works in progress. Ken Zampese doesn’t count because he was a hot mess.
Bill Lazor doesn’t have the luxury of any sort of rushing attack, so it’s up to Andy to get the ball to receivers on timing routes and quick slants. Thankfully he and Bill have come up with a band-aid offense which relies on play action, timing, and bunched up receivers.
Andy is tough. He takes a beating every game and gets up and runs the next play.
*I refuse to call it the West Coast Offense because it was invented here.
