Don't get me wrong, the kid looks good, but Dalton has 4 years of proven NFL experience and has 40 wins under his belt (albeit no post-season wins). This year our Bengals are stacked and so far healthy..knock on wood... so this is not the time you roll with an unproven QB that had a good outing in a pre-season game against one of the NFL's most atrocious defenses...that's also happens to be playing very vanilla. Anyone who thinks otherwise knows nothing about football.
McCarron will get his chance. 4 years of Dalton's "proven NFL experience" has demonstrated that he will lay an egg from time to time, and he will stink in the playoffs.
Just glad to see him playing well. That's all.
There aren't a lot of people rooting for Jimmy Garoppolo to take Tom Brady's job because Tom Brady wins playoff games. Maybe think about why people might think McCarron could be a better option than Dalton. Might not be their football acumen, might be Dalton's play on the field and playoff failures.
Just a thought.
