kriZENry Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 I liked Andy up until this season and knowing a better QB wins that Seahawks game. I have a feeling Skinny Finely may get killed and Doppleganger or whatever his name is will finish out the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 If starting rookies and tanking gets us closer to our QB savior, Mr Taigovailoa, then fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthPaw Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Eh, it was bound to happen. Not all on him, but he was a part of the problem, for longer than just this year. Unless you are considered one of the great ones, it happens to em all. Pretty obvious this was going to happen. My brother and I share a team in a two quarterback league. We have Mahomes, Prescott, and Dalton. I told him to pick up Finley after week 6. Am I surprised? A little, but only because its the Bengals and they never seem to do things right. Still obvious nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I don't want to go 0-16. 1 or 2 wins should get the 1st pick still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when Finley falls short, he can just deflect off to "he's a rookie" We dont even need to do that, Finely is a 4th rounder and the percentage of 4th round QBs that have become good is very very low. I suspect this is a move for one of two things.... 1. We want to see what we have in Finley and if he sucks we draft a QB next year. OR 2. We dont want to get Dalton killed and until there is some stability on the team tanking for a better draft pick makes sense right now. I think it's #1, but because the QB class next year is not that good #2 would not completely surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthPaw Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Sad part is, this cat will probably come out and win 3 of 8 and knock them out of the top pick. So, even when they arent trying to Bungal, they Bungal. They are capable of beating the Dolphins, Jets, and Browns at home ( i believe). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 It will just be so Taylor can blabber on in coach-speak about how Finley "gives us a better chance to win"--the eternal mumbo-jumbo they all blather on about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Usually, the bad boy QB's sent to the corner don't get traded in the same year they are banished--see Flacco. AD will be shuffled off in the off-season in some manner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saphead Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 I also predict Finley will get knocked out and Medulla Oblongata or whatever his name is finishes out the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|OneHeartBeat| Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Hopefully Taylor is benched if this team goes 0-16. I don't know how anyone cannot recognize the shitty coaching. Why wasn't Lou fired? How about the OL coach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthPaw Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Call me crazy, but i am kind of intrigued by what Finley can do. Physically, he doesnt have anything superior to Andy. He did display some moxy in the pocket against the banshees in the preseason. Curious to see what he can do against a no. 1 defense. Doesnt matter at this point if its no better than Dalton, the move still had to be made. I am intrigued though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthPaw Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Longtime veteran QB on an aging and struggling team, is always the first to go. Nothing unique here.....nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whodey365 Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 On his Birthday? Savage. This was long overdue. Andy has had an actual decent pocket mist of the year but hes playing like hes under pressure every snap. Dude looks shell shocked. All you need to see is the horrendous throw to Tate on the sideline last week. I would've pulled Dalton right there. This gives us a chance to see if Finley has anything. If not (likely) draft a qb number 1. I like Burrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not (likely) draft a qb number 1. I like Burrow. Yeah, that isn't close to true. Dalton has one of the quickest releases in the league yet is near the top of the list for sacks and hits. Add in that John Jerry, a lifelong average guard is the starting Left Tackle and it is kind of obvious that he either gets rid of the ball quickly or he dies. And unlike guys like Rodgers whose team is able to maintain blocking discipline so he CAN move up and out of the pocket, Dalton has no idea where the pressure is coming from on this swiss cheese line. It collapses in front of him and around the edge, he has NO WHERE TO GO unless a hole opens up directly in front of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
