Quote:It's amazing how Dalton gets all this flak, but the same folk don't have a bad word to say about Luck.

Luck didn't go to the Playoffs three years in a row without winning, (and playing poorly in those games). Luck threw a ton of Ints, but he also threw for enough TD's to win. Dalton has never throw for enough TD's. I still think Dalton is pretty decent, but until he finds a way to progress further, he will have the knock.  

 

I am somewhere in the middle on the Dalton issue, I don't think he is quite mediocrity perpetuated, but on the other hand, I don't think he is as good as, say, Tony Romo. I bring them both up, cause they both get a lot of slack about the playoffs, and winning in primetime. I would argue that Romo elevates his team, while Dalton somewhat holds his team back. This is were he must progress. He must at least get to the point were he isn't the problem, and can keep them competative. Theres some good stuff there with Dalton, but he still got to put it together. He is no where near a bust like Gabbs tho. And I think that bears mentioning. He is a starter in this league (justifiable, not just circumstantial). Anyway, thats kind of what I think, I have been enjoying some of the posts, especially from you posters who watch a lot of Bengals games. Its good to know what the inside crowd thinks.
