Is the fact that AJ Mccarron hasn't been traded yet maddening to anyone else?

AJM didn't get knocked unconscious and fumble, Gio did.

AJM didn't drop an INT on the 5-yard line that hit him in the face, Vinnie Rey did.

AJM didn't fumble the ball away with the lead, Hill did.

AJM didn't get a 15-yard targeting penalty, Burfict did.

AJM didn't get a 15-yard unsportsmanlike for yapping with Porter, Jones did.

All AJM did was ring up a 97.1 regular season rating (even with all those sacks) and throw what should have been a game-winning TD pass, in Cincy, vs the Steelers, in the rain, in a playoff game, and because this team is full of undisciplined choke artists it canceled out what a clutch winner put on a golden platter for this franchise.

Yeah it was a rain game.  Yeah it was low scoring.  Yeah AJM lost a fumble because Jarvis Jones collapsed the pocket and swatted his arm in < 2.3 seconds.  So what.

He had a chance to throw the whole team under the bus after he put them in position to win and the Bengals, as always, with this coach, with these bonehead players (that you all love, while downplaying the work of winners) found a way to choke.  He had a chance to put salt in the wound of all the haters and "fans" with orange pubic hairs in their teeth and at least take credit for putting the team up late.

He didn't.


The reason this team will continue to lose and choke in the playoffs is because neither the front office nor the fans can recognize or hold onto winners.  You don't need a whole team of them, but put Burfict and Pacman on the Patriots in 2015 and Belichick would refuse to play them for being undisciplined.  Put Tom Brady on an offense whose RBs fumble it away twice in a playoff game vs. Roethlisberger who takes care of the ball and he won't win either.

Boo hoo, AJM averaged 3 sacks/game to start his NFL career.  Andy Dalton averaged 2.56 sacks/game last year and he's been in the league a long time.

If Jeremy Hill holds onto the ball or if Marvin calls QB kneels instead of dive plays, the entire conversation and perspective on AJM would be 100% different in Bengal-land.  You would respect him for getting that playoff W over the Steelers in Cincy.

As it stands you disrespect him because of the failures of the TEAM, even though he was big enough not to throw shade on his teammates and coaches who threw the game away.

Yeah some of you need to go back and rewatch that film alright.............

Sounds awfully "excusey" to me....
