So we’ve had the debate vs “experienced” back up we know isn’t good vs. drafting someone who may turn out to be good, right?Are you talking about him being our franchise Quarterback or being a guy on a $3m 1-year deal to be our second string backup to Dak?
Do you make similar arguments stating that Tony Pollard is trash because he’s not Barry Sanders?
What about Blake “The Belldozer” Bell? He’s a backup tight end? Why isn’t he as good as Witten in his prime?
I don’t get why you, and others. Are trying to make this out to be something it’s not. As a backup QB, Andy Dalton has *exactly* the type of experience you want. He’s smart, has been a starting QB for almost a decade, can be a good mentor and teacher to a guy like DiNucci, should be able to come in and at least manage a couple of games or so and give us a chance to win.
No one expects to be able to ride him to a perfect season and a Super Bowl championship.
Did we pay Pollard $3 million for a year to come in with potential to make more or did we draft him?
Dalton is not good. I’d rather roll with an unknown who might possibly turn out to be good if given the chance.
