walzav29 Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 I'm pretty sure he will be available, and the Bengals showed interest before. I'm a pro-Dalton guy, but maybe I'm being too optimistic because I don't want to end up in QB limbo like 92-2004. That sucked. I'm just wondering from the anti-Dalton side of things. What route do you want to go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishbengal Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 I'm not anti Dalton at all - I welcome competition for places and depth of roster in every position. Depending on what Vick would demand I suppose it would be either/or rather than both Dalton and Vick on the roster. I can't see both being an option - if Vick became the sarter would Dalton be happy with a back-up role? Would Vick be happy with a back up role. Would the front office be happy paying big coin to a back-up (either Dalton or Vick)? I can't see a change in starter happening (unless the injury curse hits yet again) so I guess consistency is the way I'd lean - rather improve the O-line through FA/draft rather than stick a different QB behind the same O-line that has proved ineffective in a few games this year.

redsbengalsbucks Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 NO, if Dalton isnt the answer a formerly mobile, run first QB on the downside sure as heck isnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottishbengal Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 Just checked on NFL.com and Vick will be 34 starting next season .... not much longevity compared to Dalton so I stand by keeping Dalton and improving the O-line.

walzav29 Posted November 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 I do not approve of this. Andy is my man. With the constant Dalton bashing the last 2 weeks, and hearing the report that some in the organization are not sold on Andy. I didn't know what the other plan was.

HoosierCat Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 Josh Johnson seems to be a Gruden pet project, so if they turn anywhere I would expect him to have the inside track initially. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierCat Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 Check again in a few years, kaz, he still might turn out better. I just find it funny that last year, Colin was the guy the Bengals should have taken, this year he's poo-poo (so far). Go look at Luck's numbers, too. For a guy who was all but inducted into the Hall of Fame on draft day, they look positively...Daltonian. Yet I'm not seeing a raft of articles asking if Luck is a real NFL OB.

BengalByTheBay Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 Ummm no.Vick will never play another full season at QB in the NFL, let alone 4 or 5 straight games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingwilly Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Ummm no.Vick will never play another full season at QB in the NFL, let alone 4 or 5 straight games.As a starter, Vick is toast. Maybe as a back up. He's certainly better than Josh Johnson, Skelton, JT o suckigan, gradkowski, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GapControl Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 by the way Vinnie Rey is the only Bengal defender in Bengals history to have recorded 3 Qb sacks and an interception in a game. Pretty amazing that it had never been done before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsbengalsbucks Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Josh Johnson seems to be a Gruden pet project, so if they turn anywhere I would expect him to have the inside track initially.Just a reminder I am a Dalton fan and think he is the QB for this team in the present and future. BUTI was hoping that they would put Johnson in the game last week before the big comeback and I still think letting him try his hand might have changed the game. Balti was killing our O-line and Dalton never seems to feel any pressure until it is to late to move, Johnson might have been able to slow down the rush with his feet. He couldnt have been much more inaccurate last week than Dalton was. Instead our OC kept throwing the football and turned it back over to Balti repeatedly before finally getting something going at the very last oppotunity.

ShulaSteakhouse Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 No Vick, but if Dalton doesn't get better the rest of the season, anyone but him. The defenses in this division are pretty brutal still, with Cleveland now being a top 3, a big QB who can deliver under pressure would be ideal.

Seeing two UDFA handle the business at LB, three if you count James Harrison, is a testament to Zimmer. That Rey M is nothing more than a middle of the road LB is kind of a bummer. With Porter, Joiner and Lamur on IR, there is some depth here going forward. for me its hard to imagine sitting Vinny Rey down so Rey M can get on the field.

ArmyBengal Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Porter was the LB I was really hoping to see what he could do.LB might not be the big glaring need it was thought to be heading into the season.I still think they take one in the first few rounds though.Mike Vick ?? Still a no.Dalton moving forward ?? I'm still thinking yes.Not 100% sold, but the other options would have to be substantial to throw him to the side at this point.
