^ The above statement is moronic at best.
The problem is the line? the line has gotten much better. Andy Dalton hasn't. Next excuse, please? Stop being a blind derp homer and open your eyes.
If you think 2015 is "normal self" Andy Dalton, you're delusional. 2015 was an outlier season and not typical play for the QB. Guess what, if the guy has to have everything perfect and the ultimate team around him to look really good... he isn't really good. He's a product of the talent around him. It needs to be the opposite of that for the Bengals to be a great team. The QB needs to help make the players around him better NOT the other way around.
Missed throws? MISSED THROWS? That's adorably kind of you. Be honest. He's been dog crap... a lot. No good or very good QB puts up games like he has this season, regardless of what his O-line has been. He's had 2 good games against the Browns. The rest have been horrific, incomplete (1 half against the Packers. 1 Half against the Steelers), or avg/below avg.
Bitching about the O-line is pathetic excuse making at this point. They've been way better for quite a while and Dalton has still been throwing the ball into the Ohio River. It's the NFL. QBs get hit. He doesn't make the plays needed to be successful.
He is what he is at this point and that's not very good. Great human being... not a good NFL QB.
