Dalton out of cast, not throwing (yet) - stay tuned...

[*bengalfan74*]

Thanks for the update Jim.

It would be nice if Andy could make it back 100% by Sat. But I really doubt it.

I guess we'll find out Saturday night.

They took his cast off so he could throw left handed? Something is wrong in this report. Doesn't make sense. If he can't throw right handed he might as well just be doing drills on the sideline.

I have personally not seen where Marvin ruled Andy out. Until that happens, there is a chance he will get the start on Saturday. For everyone that says "no way he plays", "he won't have strength in his hand", I have yet to see one of them say "I am a Doctor". Dalton has received, and will continue to receive, the best treatment available. So until he or the team says "no", there is a chance he will be ready to go.

He will come in, throw for 350 yards and 3TDs but we will lose and it will all be his fault

Use your left hand...it feels like somebody else.

Nice to see Dalton worked on his Gus Frerotte impression.

Sadly, Frerotte was the first thing I thought of when they said Andy threw left-handed.

That idiot! He head butted a goal post? Isn't a fractured thumb bad enough???

Gus Frerotte and left hand will always go together for us Bengals fans.

Bridgewater made a left handed throw Monday night inside his won 20.  It was picked off.

Perhaps he should've talked to former Vikings QB Gus Frerotte before making that decision.

The Bengals.com article made it clear the left handed throw was Andy playing with the press.

I can do almost everything with either hand, except throw a football.

Andy talks in the locker room (video)

The lady reporter asked Andy if he could thumb wrestle.

[Atomic Orange]

I hope all this AD "will he play" stuff isn't getting into the head of AJM. He needs the teams total support and focus right now.

Reading between the lines, I have never seen Andy so down before. You can just tell he is really bummed.

Alright. I'm headed over to Moerlein Lager House where we'll have Tyler Eifert on Beyond the Stripes -- but a quick update (and the original link is updated, too) ... Yes, they clearly playing to the cameras with the left handed stuff in the literal minute before they kicked all the TV and still cameras out of PBS.

No - Marvin Lewis has not "officially" named McCarron the starter or "officially" ruled Dalton out. But in the story he wanders to that line by saying they're preparing AJ to start, and that's unlikely to change. He's not sure if Andy can suit up. The team isn't sure about that, either.

Right now, McCarron will likely start. The question is whether Andy can be active and able to back up if McCarron is hurt during the game.

Off the show. Thanks for reading and sharing.
