Sadly, yes. Dalton's stat line was horrifyingly bad.
I expect the coaching changes to give Dalton a new lease on his Bengals life

Most likely, the HC will have already said Andy is at LEAST a good short term solution . He has 2 years left of a cheap QB deal which gives the new staff time to make improvements and figure out the best course. That could mean drafting a QB this year, next year or year after. I started to make a post, twice, and deleted it both times because i didn't want this to turn into another Dalton thread, but what i was going to say is pretty much what you just posted. :andy: "The measure of a man's intelligence can be seen in the length of his argument."

He's had different coordinators, but has only really played in 2 systems. Hue and Zampese basically just tweaked Gruden's playbook. Lazor didn't get to install a whole new offense until this year.

Cut Huber and Tez and Glenn Between the 4 thats liken35 million in cap room Sign CJ Mosley, Daryl Williams and maybe a cheap TE Sign a mobile qb like Taylor or Bridgewater Draft the LSU lb or Haskins. OT or OG in second

Signed glennon as a crappy stopgap Shored up the key areas of the team via draft and trades and FAs Drafted their qb Year two, they turn the keys to the young guy and are contenders Tyrod or even Bridge would just be a temp stopgap they are more mobile and may be able to keep it interesting until the takeover

I would kill myself if I had to watch Tyrod for two or three years. Makes way more sense to shore up the weak areas, and there are plenty, then take a QB. In this year's draft, my philosophy would be to be open to taking a QB but not dead set on it to the point of reaching or missing.

Just look at the posts and when it joined the forum. It's fairly evident we have a poster who normally resides under a bridge.
We also seem to have all the usual Anti-Andy suspects showing up. The reality is the offense is going nowhere until the Offensive Line is fixed. One bad characteristic of all the playoff losses and indeed of our more recent issues is both lines getting punked. Anyone remember our vaunted defense getting blown off the ball in all of those playoff games except one? Or the OL likewise being blown off the ball? We have a new HC incoming. Let's find out who it is and who they go with to run the offense. That they seem to be keeping Pollack and let Lazor go is a sign they recognize the issue that is the Offensive Line.

The Dalton line certainly is an operating point where a QB worse than him isn't going to be a franchise QB, even a bad franchise QB. Tyrod is barely even up to being more than a stop gap guy for a few games while you get your rookie ready. Dalton is an average QB and a poor man's franchise QB. But he's better than no QB or a bad QB.

I want Tyrod or Bridgewater as the stopgap Just like Taylor was for Mayfield this year and Glennon was for MT last year in Chicago Dalton 14 million can be spent on QUALITY young FA OL and LB. I suppose you could also go the way of KC last year, and draft your guy and then let him sit behind Dalton for a year But, I think the team needs to make a heavy dent in key areas in FA - and Daltons $ would help do that |
