Dalton has been a starter for four years in the NFL. Shouldn't he be expected to carry the burden as a veteran starter playing the most important position in football? Instead, we talk of marginalizing his influence on the game flow. Why? Because he's never shown he could handle it in the most crucial situations. The problem is those are exactly the types of situations the Bengals will find themselves in if they make the Playoffs or expect to win and advance. Andy has failed miserably every time he gets those chances.
Same as above...Please name the QB to replace him...I will await your answer...I almost put money on it that Mariota and Winston do not have the success that Dalton has had and they were the 1 and 2 picks in this year's draft...Ohio State exposed Mariota as a one read QB that everyone knows never works in the NFL and Winston's head will probably explode in the next couple of years..
