I’ll just rely on the fact that anyone not in the Andy Dalton mega-fan club or non-Bengals fans in general would consider such a claim absolutely ridiculous. I’m not going to sit here and list a handful of plays where Dalton was clearly the reason a pass to AJ didn’t work (although we don’t have to go any further back that the last preseason game against Dallas) because that’s much too small a sample size considering they’ve been together 7 years. We could find plenty of evidence for both if we really tried, I just know which I would find more of.
It's pretty ridiculous that people are even discussing this to be honest. Getting rid of the best Bengals WR in history could be better for the club? C'mon guys. Andy Dalton and the rest of this offense has wasted AJ's prime and it's a damn shame. I'm sick and tired of seeing AJ beat his man only to see a throw out of bounds or not even close.
It reminds me of the NBA when a superstar gets injured and the team goes on a 2 game win streak and everyone claims that the team is better without the superstar because the offense moves the ball more. It is pure nonsense.
