There's no doubt AJ made Andy a better quarterback and 2015 was an amazing year for the Bengals.Have to disagree with you one there is not a thing called Almost Camp battle AJ was in no position to take Andy's job if remember Andy mentioned you had a really good offseason workouts and things clicked that year that's what made it a great season AJ had no effect on Andy's performance in 2015
My camp battle du jour for 2017 will involve Russell Bodine and JJ Dielman for the starting center position. Now being next to Andre Smith at right guard will make most any center better but I give JJ better than even odds at earning the starting position. If he doesn't, this will push Russell into a level of play he hasn't been able to reach yet.
