Does it involve a 35 year old couple with gray hair walking on the beach pretending that having the new car has anything to do with sex? LOL

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

But he sure did surprise the hell out of me and came back strong. The other mistake was him underthrowing AJ on the TD which led to a pick, he knows better to underthrow against a tall CB.
AJ's only mistake that I can recall was his drop in the first half on goaline that could have been picked. Aside from that, he was trash talking, breaking tackles, making defenders look silly on his crisp routes, and just being the man.
The ball is in the QBs hands on every play. More opportunities for mistakes. Watch any NFL QB any given week and you will find they aren't perfect.

It is also good to see the rest of the team didn't implode. Receivers actually got open. The o line blocked and receivers made great catches (Jones, Green, Bernard) and didn't fumble the ball.

Yeah, both had career days but I expect that more from AJ. Andy......no so much. Tough to predict more of the same with a three game sample, but ....
And Andy comes back from two turnovers with two 80 yard drives (in 4 1/2 minutes no less) to finish off the game.
Andy by the slightest of margins.
Some say you can place your ear next to his, and hear the ocean ....

Green - though I rank him and Andy the same for this game, I went with the statistical underdog at the time I looked at the poll.
Dalton and Green both played the way you have to in order to compete for the prize. Not perfect - but heady, tough and smart. I'm not often proud of a Bengals performance - and it had some significant blemishes.
But those two played at an all pro level and I was proud to be a fan.
