TimKrumrieFan Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Andy.McCarron has an even weaker arm than Andy. If I'm replacing Andy I want a guy with an actual arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 I'd start Dalton due simply to experience. Chicago's defense isn't very good so we shouldn't make too much of last night's game. For what it's worth, the Browns whipped Tampa last night too. Anyway Dalton should be on a short leash and I'd be fine with giving McCarron a series every game even if Dalton is playing well.

T-Dub Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 That's cute.. There was a QB controversy before McCooter was even drafted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HairOnFire Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Yeah, but it won't be a true QB controversy until Coley Harvey writes an article about the honey dripped dulcet tones of AJ McCooter's voice calling a play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_B Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 IF there had to be a choice - McCarron. Better leadership qualities imo.What you weren't sold on this.... https://instagram.com/p/xcOYPBgC_E/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_B Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 The way I saw McCarron fastening his helmet, I knew at that moment there was no way he would ever make it as an NFL QB. Most QBs require years before you should properly judge them, but the way McCarron's hair was parted during the draft process was all I needed to know he's never going to be better than a backup. It's not the hair...It's that damn ugly chest tattoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happyrid Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 He looks like a dumbass with those terrible tattoos. This is Andy's team for 2015.Andy has to play better than he did in 2014 or it might not be Andy's team in 2016. McCarron looks like a great 5th round pick even if he's just a backup. Nice work by the Bengals scouting staff and their patience in not reaching earlier in the draft paid off for them.The 2014 draft class could go down as another in a string of strong drafts by Tobin and company. Hill is a stud and an absolute steal in the 2nd. Finding a solid starter in Bodine in the 4th was nice. Both Dennard and Clarke look like pretty good picks and should see a lot of playing time going forward at premium positions. And AJ in the 5th, as mentioned, was another good pick. It looks like we did really well with the first 5 picks. Even Flowers and Wright in the 6th and 7th look like pretty good picks considering how late they went.

HairOnFire Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 He looks like a dumbass with those terrible tattoos.True, but as my wife just pointed out when I showed her the picture...."Those tattoos are meant to distract from the lack of chest hair and muscle."

scharm Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 It's just one guy's opinion, but what I saw from McCarron last night was Andy Dalton Lite. He got away with a couple floated balls down the field, but he doesn't have the arm strength to scare the shit out of anybody. He's pretty accurate, but too often, receivers were catching the ball after a pirouette or picking it off their back hip. He looked fearless in the pocket, but is a couple steps slower than Dalton when he takes off with the football. Given what I've seen of his physical tools in an extremely small sample size, I still believe they are a notch or two below Andy Dalton. There's simply not enough "poise and leadership" in the world to make up for those shortcomings. Meanwhile, I'm watching Brett Hundley show of an honest-to-goodness big time arm on NFLN right now...I really wish I were more optimistic about A.J. McCarron. The stream I watched last night was awful quality. Who knows? Maybe the HD replay will change my mind.throws a better ball than Dalton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|Bunghole| Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Dalton for sure, for now. Give the red water pistol one more season to get us where we need to be, if not, part ways, find another QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|Harley| Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 Andy gives us the best shot of winning game 1.Rookie AJ looked decent against a vanilla defense in a preseason game. People aren't thinking clearly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
