He's fairly good at reading defenses. On the negative side, I'd say his pocket awareness isn't good...and he lately seemed to be seeing ghosts in the pocket from playing behind this terrible offensive line. It's already starting to happen to Finley too at times.
IF he has good coaching and players around him, he could win.
But, we have arguably the worst coaching staff of the past decade currently. That's thrown our roster and production into chaos.
If you put Aaron Rodgers on this team with this staff...I doubt we have more than a few wins.
Now, IF say we hired a Mike McCarthy...Dalton is probably still the starter and we're probably fringe competing for a playoff spot. Maybe AJ Green is playing too. But, I think Mixon would be the focal point of the offense, and they would be getting the ball to Mixon and Bernard various ways.
Now IF you put Belicheck here with Dalton, we're probably a playoff team.
I pretty much agree with all of that. That's also why I said build a team around him, that way if he goes down, you just need a distributor that's not blinded by the lights to keep the offense rolling.
Every snap of Andy Dalton's pro career so far has been under the "leadership" of Marvin Lewis and Zack Taylor. As I've stated before, take away the little 5 yard crossing route away from Tom Brady and he'll have a lot of drives that look like Andy Dalton's drives in Cincinnati. Trying to compare Dalton's stats to that of the rest of the NFL is almost laughable due to the severe handicaps that these other QBs are never saddled with that any Bengal QB suffers from almost immediately upon landing across the river in Kentucky.
