Listen, I like AJM, he is a good guy, and a pretty darn good college QB. I don't think he necessarily deserves all the RIDICULOUS amount of hype you keep comparing him to. Yes, you keep comparing him to Tom Brady, with meaningless four game stats. When you use him as a comparison, you're going to take consistent flak.
All across the internet there are dozens of people who post the exact same sentiments I do, on forums and article comment sections, with the exact same opinion of AJM. Many are Bengals fans, some aren't.
I'm not some unique snowflake.
What's sad is how butthurt most Bengal fans get when someone dares give AJM some credit. On every forum or article where I see pro-AJM comments, the poor guy is immediately dogpiled by a bunch of Andy apologists and AJM gets bashed in the process.
AJM has a bright future in the NFL, he has a lot more QB skills than what many of you guys would like to admit. That's really all it boils down to.
I and others see the potential. You and others don't.
The cool thing is, one day he'll get an opportunity and he'll run with it. Maybe it's here, maybe it's elsewhere. I'd prefer to deal in reality and empirical things (video, statistics, etc) rather than future prognostication. But I watch a lot of football and when AJM was on the field in 2015, he looked like a top-tier NFL QB who was only missing one thing - experience. And the stats back that assessment up.
