That being said, Andy Dalton is worth every penny he is earning right now. I've always had high hopes for Dalton, but I've been objective when analysing him, at least I think so. Prior to this year I thought he was average/mediocre. He wouldn't lose a game, but he could do just enough to win one. This year he's playing at an elite level and I couldn't be happier, I hope this is the true Dalton and not the guy we've seen in the past 4 years, that Dalton gave Flacco a run for his money as the most consistently inconsistent QB in the NFL.
Just an FYI, Flacco cap hit is 28 million in 2016 and 32 million in 2017 or about 50% of AD's cap hits
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.
