August 20, 20179 yr I said Anderson had a great year in the playoffs... How many times did he get to the playoffs in 14 seasons? Is it cause he sucked? Nope Well you see, give Anderson or any qb all the talent Dalton has had around him and I'd be willing to bet he'd of gotten there a lot more. All you can do is look at what they did when they got there and Dalton has a qb rating of 57 while Anderson has a rating of 97. Looks like Kenny performed a whole lot better. Oh btw, McCarron has a better rating than Dalton in playoff games too.
August 20, 20179 yr And made bad decisions against defenders who were not starters. It goes both ways. How has Dalton looked in his career without Green? I'll wait...
August 20, 20179 yr If you can't support the starting QB of your favorite team, then why even be a fan? You're only torturing yourself stressing over something that isn't going to change. Andy is the better QB according to the people that literally spend hours upon hours with them every single day.
August 20, 20179 yr I said "that's why he's the back up" as an over reaction statement to match you and others that over react about Dalton... We all know the truth... we all know why McCarron is the back up... Dalton has earned the right to be the starting QB and AJ has done nothing to take it away from him... period. The year AJ went to the playoffs, Dalton was having quite possible the best season of any QB in the league,certainly a top 3 season. He sure was against avg to bad teams. He still lost to some good teams as usual. Ive always said Dalton looks great against avg to bad teams. But when it's a prime time game or big game he looks bad a lot more than good. He also isnt able to bring the team back in crunch time. That's Dalton, he looks good against a guy teams and looks bad against good teams. What's his record vs Steelers?
August 20, 20179 yr How has Dalton looked in his career without Green? I'll wait... How does any QB look without one of the 5 best receivers in the game?
August 20, 20179 yr 2011, 2012 Bengals made the playoffs because of the defense. 2014 they made the playoffs because of a top 6 running game. Only 2013 and 2015 while Dalton played was he and the offense making big contributions in wins. Dalton has benefited from the best defensive run in franchise history. Only 2 times in the last 6 years has the defense not been in the top 10 in total yards or points given up. And the defense was terrible in most of those playoff games too... to go along with poor offense... 2011 he's a rookie with a first year offensive coordinator... 2012 they're still young and learning to play at that level... Obviously as he got more experience he Had more to do with their success

Andy is the better QB according to the people that literally spend hours upon hours with them every single day. Because I expect more. What good is it to just be complacent with mediocrity? If you want to settle, that's on you. I want more.

August 20, 20179 yr Because I expect more. What good is it to just be complacent with mediocrity? If you want to settle, that's on you. I want more. Were you a fan of the Bengals in the 90's? That's mediocrity. This is a far cry from it. Unless you believe AJ is Tom Brady behind the scenes then you can't honestly believe the Bengals are complacent when it comes to the QB position.
August 20, 20179 yr The O line is garbage and we have ZERO depth on defense but let's keep debating Andy and AJ...
August 20, 20179 yr How does any QB look without one of the 5 best receivers in the game? None of Ken Andersons receivers ever made it into the HOF and Anderson still has one of the best compl% of all time.
August 20, 20179 yr The O line is garbage and we have ZERO depth on defense but let's keep debating Andy and AJ... You and footmaster are the ones who brought it up first tonight.
August 20, 20179 yr How has Dalton looked in his career without Green? I'll wait... Green has been hurt quite a bit... I remember early on second or third season, Green hurt his knee at Pittsburgh, missed a few games, Bengals still made playoffs .. And I'll add, personally I think Green has performed worse than Dalton in the playoffs... Dalton missed a throw to Green in Houston ... but Green dropped a TD down the sidelines against San Diego, not to mention Gio's game changing fumble near the goal line against San Diego... Point is, the team is to blame... all of them
