AJM is not the answer. He might not panic like Dalton but in every other way, he is worse.

that is an interesting thought. With this O-Line that may not be a bad idea

It's because AJ has a sense of confidence that Dalton doesn't seem to have. That's enough to get fans excited. Until AJ falls completely on his face and proves that he's just average people will want to see him.
I get it. I've been standing by Dalton pretty much till this year. The team is a mess, yes the line sucks but Andy if missing too many easy passes. We shouldn't be sitting here trying to debating on a 7 year QB. He's been here too long to still be this inconsistent and unreliable. Even when he plays good everybody knows it's just a matter of time with this guy. You never know which Andy will show up when it matters.

If Dalton layer an egg in Cleveland would be fine with the benching and let AJM have a crack at it.
Think Dalton is the better of the two but sometimes you have to shake things up and find out.

Maybe AJ needs to start just to light a fire in Andy for him to fix some of the stuff that’s been hurting him for a long time. Job security with zero accountability sure hasn’t provided that spark.

I have no problem with this and even agree with you.

This is the most sensible Dalton-related post I've ever seen you make. Keep it up.

The Bengals third string quarterback looks sort of big. He looks like a tight end that can run.
But there is no way they would play him over AJ McCarron if they were to sit Andy Dalton.

The only QB I want to see behind the line we have is Driskel. AJ would get his leg broken in the first game he plays with the current line we have.

Playing the 3rd string QB is always the answer.

Under incredible pressure, McCarron led the comeback. Andy has never done this in a playoff game.
McCarron is a winner.
If we lose to Cleveland, McCarron should be given a shot at playing 4 to 5 games to see what he does.
I have always been an Andy supporter and he is obviously a great human being. I get his rating yesterday but he missed several wide open throws any one of which could have won the game.
McCarron throws a better long ball for sure.
Need to really give McCarron a shot if we lose next week to see whether we really need to draft a QB.
If Andy is the QB in a 3-13 season and McCarron does not get a real chance then we need to draft one.
This multiplied by 100 billion.
