jonf45uk Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 thats a superb fact Dalton has shown amazing maturity considering whats gone before him, and the team he's inherited. Rookie of the year so far for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HairOnFire Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 I am carving his bust now! Last year I forgot to say goodbye to visiting Steeler fans before they were collectively banned. This year I won't make that mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derekshank Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 The Steeler fans seem to love poking fun at Dalton and his nickname.And I must say, despite my ever growing man love for Andy Dalton... I f**king hate the "Red Rifle" nickname. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spor_tees Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 There is a post in the ESPN mailbag from some guy in Louisville talking about how they all hate the nick name Red Rifle. Instead they said the call him Roadhouse! I do think it is a bit odd that Hobson hasn't embraced the Red Rifle monicker, and instead calls him the Red Baron. I still like the idea of calling him Capp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

membengal Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 I prefer to call Andy Dalton... Andy Dalton.Same.Said it on the other attempt to nickname him too.Then again, I was always partial to "Ken" for Ken Anderson. "Boomer" for Boomer Esiason. And "Carson" for Carson Palmer. Altho late in his tenure I did see the allure of the nickname "pick 6".I may be too old now to understand the need to nickname everything.

jjakq27 Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 Red Rifle makes me think of Red Rider BB Gun. I just call him Andy or Dalton. No need to anything else except for Winner maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
