The excuses people were putting forth were bogus, such as target distance and QB incompetence. Yesterday his target distance was even longer, yet he had success. Andy Dalton was still throwing the ball.
Ross made a lot of mistakes his first two years and his stats showed it.
Now he has one good game and anyone who pointed out that the guy didn't get it must have been wrong. No they weren't. He didn't get it. Now, for one game, and hopefully for many more, he's getting it.
Did I say that in the OP?
I said anyone calling for him to be cut, called him trash or labeled him a bust should eat crow. If you did that, the yep you should eat crow. If you objectively criticized and hoped he would get better, thread was not targeted for you or others with those views.
Just the true haters, those who said cut him, those who personally attacked him and labeled him a bust.
It was obvious he was struggling with injury and tement years one and 2, that did make him a bust so early, but many felt the need to label him as such. They should fess up.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
