If I work for Apple and use a Samsung what does it say about what I'm selling? If he doesn't play for injury there is no value lost, if you bench him for a back up he takes a hit...it's that simple. Especially when the back up is a former practice squad player lol.
Cutting him is still stupid. $16 Million for a starting QB is the least of any non starting QB in the NFL. The Redskins gave a a 3rd and Kyle Fuller (a solid young CB) for Alex Smith who had a more expensive contract.
I missed nothing, Driskell isn't the answer and any plan revolving around a possibility he could be is ill advised. No one is comparing Dalton to Fitzpatrick, it's laughable to compare them.
Report is it is a sprained thumb, could miss a week or two but not season ending. Hence why I said if it pleases the "back up QB fan club" hold him back two weeks then bring him back in to close out the season.
Obviously its implied I would cut him only we cant get and value for him. I made the assumption its more likely he can't be traded because of his salary and how gm's view him as a player. Keep in mind when you make stupid comments that it isn't how you view Dalton its how other teams view Dalton.
Your'e making an assumption he's out two weeks. Why even take a chance bringing Dalton back and having him get a more serious injury which would then hurt his value even more.Then the Bengals almost guaranteed will not be able to get any value.
If I win the lottery I'll spend half the money on alcohol, gambling and wild women. The other half I'll waste.
