We have won 3 games and each time Andy has received universal praise. Yet we you point to this game and the terrible game Andy had, you have an agenda if you want to say he is the most to blame for the loss. I wish folks could just call it as they see it.My agenda? Lol...If I had one it would be making this place a more honest, open to new ideas kind of message board.
Look, it's not about just the 4 loses of this year. For the past 5 or 6 years this team has been considered by a lot fans in and out of Cincinnati to be an up and coming team. With one concern.....our QB. Interesting enough, those concerns were always hotly contested by members of this board claiming media bias /conspiracy against the City of Cincinnati and etc.
Fast forward to today. It's clear to many sports fans in and out of Cincinnati that this team is heading in a downward spiral and all options should be looked at including the QB position.
Not surprisingly those opinions are rejected by the majority of this board. The consensus here (supposedly based on QB stats) seem to favor doubling down on what's already been done before.
The following is this boards reasoning as I see it: "We've already placed better players around our QB, but let's do it again. We've had a good defensive team with Andy, let's get another one. But to justify it all, we have to do something new so let's fire ML!"
That's just short of saying "let's $@&& can the whole team because we've got Andy".
If that's not "player bias" or "player favorite", what is? And BTW, I see nothing wrong with having player favorites, but don't piss on each others shoes and claim it's raining.
