But I hate our conservative approach if we get up by 14 points or 10 points we start running the ball trying to run the clock out and get a close win. With the weapons on this team I want to see a few blow outs so to speak where we are leading by 14 at the end of the game. Stay aggressive all the way through the game on offense and defense. As long has the O line holds up and improves all year long we should be able to do this and not leave it up to a field goal or extra point to decide the outcome of the game.

This is what you SHOULD be able to do with a veteran QB.  He will use his judgement and not try to make plays where there aren't any, but there were times last year where the opposing defense was daring the Bengals to throw the ball and they would run it in to a 9 man front.  

Having Lafell as your main weapon didn't help, but Dalton is capable of using lesser than AJ talent (See Cody Core against the Ravens) when they give him a chance.  Everyone slobbers over Brady for his offensive prowess for taking lesser known WRs and making them good, but he is given that opportunity.   It is time to give this offense to Dalton and let him stay in attack mode.
