At the Cincinnati-Buffalo preseason game, Andy and Jordan Dalton will be presenting a check to the Roswell Park Cancer Center from their foundation. This is their way of saying thank you to the massive donations the Bills fans made to them after "the play"
We are so lucky to have this couple as part of our community. Proud to call him a Bengal and a Cincinnatian.

I am kind of a closet Bills fan now after the Bromance that has been going on since the play (AJ McCarron, Cordy Glenn, Bodine), but I see the Bills as a team that will be taking a HUGE step back. I hope for their sake I am wrong, but losing the mobile QB and not having next to anything at the WR position....and they also lost three starters on the offensive line.
This is a very cool story, nonetheless....Think the NFL will take notice? Doubt it.

Sat what you will about his play, he is inarguably one of the classiest QB’s and “good people” NFL players of all time.

Andy is a very class act.
So is that guy he throws the ball to.

So Bills fans are all secretly saying, "Gee, I wish we could be just like the Cincinnati Bengals. "?
Actually they kind of are, win during the regular season and even make it to the big show only to crap the bed....only they're kind of taking the backward approach giving us their good players and taking our leftovers . Too bad we didn't get Taylor as Andys backup..Perhaps the capital of QB death will cut him and we get him on a reduced rate..

Andy Dalton has always been one of the most genuine NFL players out there and he continues to give back. He may not be elite, but you couldn't ask for a more standup guy

Dalton is a great guy. He's a better than avg QB but think he will get even better with the coaching.
