Dalton = Sanchez

If the line can't block then Dalton will have no time do make plays as you've seen in Houston, Pittsburgh and Philly at the end of the year. Palmer didnt have time to make plays either because of the line and you can blame this on talent or coaching and i'm gonna go with coaching for now because plenty of talent has moved in and out in the time Alexander has been here

Agreed, I've been on Alexander's case since the '05 line started to disintegrate.

Oh, I definitely realize that Dalton isn't the biggest problem at all, but drawing a comparison to the days of Palmer, Chad, and Brat isn't really fair. For most of that time it was much worse than now(for a bunch of reasons). We're pretty much a solid 2nd receiver away from a playoff win right now.

Before 2011 we needed: 2 receivers, a running back, a good defense, an entire interior line, a new OC, etc...
On top of that the diva mentality was very prevalent, and this team seemed more like organized chaos trying to win than a team with a plan and direction.
I'm hopeful, but it's cautious optimism.

I hate to say it, but Dalton looks to be a poor mans Flacco..so yeah, I do agree, Dalton=Sanchez

and the order of QB in the north is Roethlisberger->Flacco->Dalton->[insert browns qb here]

Alexander is the new Bob Bratkowski. Everyone wants him gone but Mike Brown

Better Weapons = More trust from the QB

Better Protection = Better timing and pocket awareness...

QB cant win it by themselves it takes 11 to move the ball 45 to win the game.

[Shake n Blake]

People just don't get it. We don't have the weapons that everybody thinks we do.

Basically teams had to find a way to shut down AJ, and we had nothing else.

We rotated 4 different guys at #2 WR and had 3 different centers. Those positions are pretty important to the QB...right?

Dalton's stats in the 3 games that Sanu started (with Robinson at center): 9 TDs - 0 INTs, took a sack every 22.3 attempts.

Dalton's stats with Marvin Jones: 4 TDs - 5 INTs, took a sack every 6.1 attempts in the 4 games after Cook came back.

But lets not bother looking at the whole offense. It's much easier to just say it's all on Dalton. Btw, comparing him to Sanchez is ridiculous. Dalton is statistically superior in every category (by a large margin), and no one ever thought Sanchize was any good.

What's the constant? Ken Zampese. Time for him to go.

The nail has been hit on the head. I have never been a fan of Zampese.

GTFO I'd take JTO over Sanchez

Now despite my title, i dont think Dalton is as bad a Sanchez. I actually think hes descent. But descent aint gonna get us over the hump. Its time to realize he is what he is. Dalton was a 2nd round pick becuz he is a 2nd tier QB. In college dalton threw quick passes and didnt need time to sit in the pocket. Thats why when he has happy feet when his internal clock speeds up. Its gotta be frustrating for Green to run past his man tme and time again just to turn around and see the ball swirling out of bounds. Yes the OL can play better, but there were a multitude of opportunities for dalton to step up and make an easy completion but he panicked and threw ball away.. his footwork is horrible. He has no clue what a sidestep is. Dalton has regressed a bit this year and i say if after this season he doesnt play better we get a QB. I mean he lost to TJ Yates for cryoing out loud!!!!!! Negative six yards in a half. Are you kidding me. Wait til ya see what Brady does to that same defense.

andy dalton will never be as bad as mark sanchez

I'd give you rep for this post if I spread it around more.

Please keep making sense... someday someone else might get it... or not.

Perfectly stated.

[CloeHokie]

I tend to agree. Though I think we need a better running game. We are always playing from 3rd and long it seems. Gresham can't catch either.

HAHAHA!! That's got to be one of the dumbest things I've ever read.

Nice post. Though Andy has a few shortcomings he has been a blessing.
I would like to see the team draft a solid young QB in the draft this year though.
Competition at the posititon can be a good thing.

[CloeHokie]

This thread is a joke. Much like Sanchez. Quick someone post the Gif of him running into his own man and fumbling the ball.

[thompson19osu]

Everything stated in this thread so far is perfectly accurate.

I usually get a comment at least once a week from someone here over the hilarity of that play and I've had this on my sig since the night it happened, I never get tired of it

[CloeHokie]

I look at Dalton as a Good QB not a Great one. He can win us games but he needs help. Only a few QBs in the league can win with not a lot of help. Dalton needs a good running game and he needs players to catch the ball reliably. Right now we have 1 WR that does that. I am not in favor of drafting one early but would not mind looking at a FA option. Also I would like to see us get the Rookie TE from GA (Name escapes me at the moment) the ball more often if Gresham keeps dropping balls and fumbling them as well.

It's definitely not going to watch itself 100 more times.

[Go Cards]

Shake is absolutely correct and so is Cloe in my opinion.

Not enough weapons and O-line injuries when we were already bringing a new guy in did not help. Guard, Center, Guard, all new.

That is brutal in the NFL and a recipe for some chaotic play at times.

NFL defense are experts at exposing weaknesses.

Proud of these Bengals. Could have quit at half way point. Have seen other Bengals teams mail it in when struggling at that point of season. But these Bengals manned up.
But ran into bad match up in Playoffs.
