Felt to me like we knew what we had in Dalton. If JB led us to the doorstep and God forbid something happened, I just don't think Andy would take us over the threshold. Nothing in his past showed he would when it was all on the line. It's great to have a capable back-up if needed to sub in here or there for a little knick or ding to the QB during the season, but I just don't it was worth keeping Andy here - who wanted out for a better opportunity to start - for that bit of insurance and no proof he could really step up if needed. I hope I don't have to eat those words at some point in the season, but as it stands now, I have zero issues with Mikey letting him walk.
There were lots of changes to the locker room this off-season and I think the overhaul is more complete by letting Andy go and Burrow take the reins and establish a new culture.
