Not saying anything bad against Dalton. I love the way he played this year. But NO he did not win the prime time game...Lost to Houston on Monday night football. 

 I'm just adding a twist to the thread that's all. McCarron came in and performed like a champ during arguable the hardest part of the schedule and showed he is going to be able to get the job done. Keep in mind this was his first NFL playing time.

All that said all I'm saying is McCarron could lead this team to the playoffs for cheaper and he is younger....free up money and get a draft pick out of it! It's a discussion forum after all isn't it!?!

Now, will a team meet the price and demands? Not likely

I think McCarron played pretty good, but people get really carried away. He didn't win any tough games and he choked in OT against the Broncos and most of the playoff game. He gets a bit of a pass for being a rook, but it still happened.

Good backup? Absolutely. I was pleased with his overall performance. Possible starter somewhere? Maybe. An Aaron Rodgers clone who is destined to take the league by storm and push Andy Dalton? If you think that, you're either a Dalton hater or a 'Bama fan.

Like Hobson stated, the Bengals would be listening if a team offered a 2nd round pick. There's a couple teams that may look at him.

Bengals draft Dak Prescott we all can be happy.

Because Dalton is a better QB than McCarron. Dalton has won big games. McCarron has not. He didn't lead us anywhere. Give all the credit in the world to the defense for that playoff game, not McCarron.

He worked hard to be a better passer between 14 and 15. That's a good sign.

It's either him or the best QB in the draft, Matt Johnson.

The other guy I really like is Hackenberg. Yes. I know. Bad stats. But that kid knows his football and had horrendous offensive line help. He showed numerous times his football knowledge with audibles and knowing where to go, but that offense was a disaster. Given the right circumstance, I could see him being pretty similar to Boller.

Yeah, I've got a good feeling about that kid.

He's proven he can start on a team in this league. Trading him now with 2 years on a rookie contract is optimal. If someone waives a 2nd rounder in our face we should jump on it.

McCarron has won 3 Bowl games, and yes won a championship game.

Dalton hasn't won a playoff game.
McCarron hasn't won a playoff game.

Try again.
