Andy Dalton is the best player on the Bengals

Dalton needs to call them out or SOMETHING.

This has been going on for years with this team.....

There are times the backs can't even get the handoff without someone being in their face....according to some (see below), that's 14's fault too.

Offensively, he and Gio....sometimes Hill....and AJ.

Yep, thought so too.

But when we're down by several points late in the game, I expect a lot more from our QB (even when all WRs are covered) than what Andy gives. Too often he prematurely gives up on plays. 

We don't have the luxury of a over-powering defense that can consistently scores points, therefore, Andy has to know when to shift gears a little.

I'm not sure I follow your logic.  So, if o linemen can only sustain a block 1.8 sec, no one's open, and two or three d linemen are breathing down his neck....just what the hell is he supposed to do there?  

Honestly, I think we masked the inefficiencies of this line last season with our quick hits.  Jones, Eifert, and even Sanu had a knack for getting open underneath.  This year, those guys are gone.  Lafell does ok, Boyd is just learning, and Eifert is out.  Now, we don't have time for anything to develop down the field because Piano Man's unit couldn't block the Queen of England.
