For good or bad, he's the "Franchise QB", and once they are benched for bad play for their backup it's over. Even if you think it's just for a game. Name a QB who it happened to after 7 years starting on a team and he's on another team now.
If Dalton gets benched, it'll be time to scout Qb's for our top 3 pick.
Give him the decency to go down with the ship. I never liked benching a starting QB during a blowout, and if they have as many years in the league as Dalton has, during the season either.
It's like the captain getting on a life boat while everyone else sinks. This is his team as much as it is Marvins. For a bad game, or for the year, we need to sink or swim with Dalton and give him the dignity standing with the team as they fail. Then let a new HC make a decision on him and hopefully have a better backup plan then AJ.
Lamar Jackson or bust.
