Quote:Dalton is the same qb he was as a rookie, which you will probably be able to say the same in a few years about Teddy. Plus Min. D is probably better Cin. Not to mention Teddy gets to work with Nov Turner. So yeah, I would say Teddy situation is just as good or better than Dalton

 

Contrary to what you think, Teddy is far from a finished product. He'll get stronger in the NFL's strength program. He's got some mechanical issues (especially with the deep ball) that he needs to fix. Just because he was more ready to step and play right away doesn't mean this is as good as he's going to get. He's just a few months younger than Bortles.

 

On paper, I think most would say Dalton was in a good situation. But this year has been tougher for him, with the injuries to Green/Jones. Their defense isn't as stout as in years past either. But even with that, I'd give the edge to Dalton with Sanu, Bernard and Hill and an overall better OL than what Bridgewater had. I laugh when I see people message Ozone and talk about Greg Jennings. LoL...Greg Jennings hasn't been relevant in at least two years. At least.

 

But mostly, Dalton is a 4 year pro whereas TB is a rookie.

 

Of the rookies, I'd say Blake dealt with the most difficult situation (too much youth around him, questionable OC), followed by Carr, then Bridgewater. All three however, had less than ideal situations for which they were asked to step into.
