I know he won the MVP but they really haven’t done all that much with him as QB. I understand some of that can be laid at the feet of the front office who seem to think any old WR will do.
Oh and I hope Joe doesn’t see $300 million. The Bengals do need other players.
But it's more than just them not providing him any help. He simply is not very good in the pocket and going through progressions and you have to do that in this league or he's going to continually get injured. His pocket presents is average at best and he does not have good motion in throwing and stepping into his throes and setting his feet.
He relies on his ability to run when things break down instead of staying in there and taking a hit because he knows he can make a positive play out of nothing. I believe Cincinnati was the team last year that really exposed him when we did not really let him get outside the pocket and made him stay within the pocket.
