If Luck were the Bengals QB we'd be winning just the same. Of course, we don't get #1 overall picks either, so if you want to have a value grade on them Dalton has been the better value.
Seriously? Dalton started with a rookie WR, 2nd year TE and weak rest of skill players as a rookie. Yes, Green is awesome, but so are guys like A. Brown, Fitzgerald, J. Jones and a bunch of others. Hilton is no slouch either. According to many our OL stinks too.
AD has better stats than Luck and less turnovers when compared side by side. He also makes a lot less money which helps us keep a solid roster.
Edit: AD also had no rookie camps due to the strike. I find many thought Luck was the smarter QB since he is a Stanford grad, I think they are dead wrong. Luck is the better athlete, but AD is the brains.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
