It isn't so much as to benching him, but the way they went about it.
You really think our philosophy is a winning standpoint? Really?
No it is not. You don't waste good. Dalton has shown to be good. ZT is taking the coward approach to the failure of this season by claiming that Dalton is not "his guy" and that is why we failed.
I get it though. However since he has laid out his cards, it is up to us to hold him to task. He takes Burrow and he better produce with him. Not in a "few" years.... NEXT year. 2020 it is postseason or bust for him. At least it is in my eyes, should be in yours as well.
Im not here to defend Taylor and how he handled Andy. For the most part I think Taylor is a cheese. Im here to defend the idea of taking Burrow as the #1 player and QB off the board with the idea that we are going to build a team around him. I dont think ZT handled it well, and definitely couldve handled Andys situation a lot better. I like Andy a lot and my heart really does go out to him. I really wish he coulve had a better situation here and I hope he plays again for someone and does great.
