The problem with Dalton especially early in his career was consistency If Burrow can play like "Good Andy" without Bad Andy showing up. Then we're going to have a hell of QB on our Hands.

No, it is not flat out wrong. I’ve watched almost every game Dalton has ever played as a Bengal. Just because you can throw out a play here and there from any given season doesn’t mean his pocket presence hasn’t been an issue his entire career. We blamed it on his center for years, then we get a halfway decent one in Hopkins, and Dalton is even worse.

People like to pretend that Tom Brady has had 5 All Pro’s in front of him his entire career, and while their OL was usually good (not always), Brady was a master at moving his feet and sliding up and down in the pocket to make plays happen. Dalton has never done that on a regular basis. If the play breaks down at all 9 times out of 10 Dalton chucks it away, or does nothing to help himself. For a guy as athletic as he is, he’s a statue way too often.
