Are we really doing this?

Any reason to think the streak will end?

Andy Dalton Stat line prediction: 18/24 195 yards 0 TDs 2 Ints that someone will argue isn't his fault.

You know our coach's motto, of course we're going with Dalton. I'm sure we will run the same predictable plays with Taysom. As long as the outcome of the season is firing a HC with four consecutive losing seasons is the outcome, I'll be satisfied.

6 of those 18 completions will be meaningless, woefully short of the sticks passes on 3rd down.

I honestly hope he breaks that streak. It needs to end.

It's just not a fun experience to getting embarrassed like that on prime time games as a player or a fan.

I think as long as he keeps doing what he’s been doing, we can get the dub

Starting Dalton is kind of a catch 22. If we win, DA will roll with Dalton the rest of the season and we miss the playoffs. If we lose, we're pretty much out of the playoffs.

We do still have a shot at the divisionship, but IMO it is only realistic at this point if we make a QB change and either Jameis or Taysom gets hot. But DA's inability to make meaningful adjustments will sink us. Maybe we'll get lucky and Andy will get a strained pinky in warmups and DA's hand is forced.

just put winston in so we can at least have some fun.

It seems like he’s stubbornly sticking with Dalton just because at this point….he really is a bottom tier coach in the league. What in the world was Loomis thinking?

Let me get this straight? If we keep on doing what we're doing, we'll do WHAT exactly? Didn't some sage write and Isn't it a true "truism" that "If we don't LEARN from the past? We're doomed to repeat it!"

I don't have an answer to the T/O stats we've put up this season, the super untimely penalties we've amassed and the lack of tackling or Ints. from the Safety positions, so clearly I'm clueless but DAMN! DA at least LOOK like U give a chyte!~! U even look a fool wearing an ill-fitting hoodie and CSP visor (but with a red sharpie N it)! I mean, even the massive play sheet is gone ! Might as well write that crap on a napkin!

This shyte River runs DEEP! Still, let's keep on doing what we're doing if that make sense 2 U Bro! There's plenty of openings at Rouse's next season but in the BACK! C YA! I Would B YA and I'd at the LEAST get creative on opponents & take that fat paycheck! (I hope it was incentive based so we don't have to PAY for what we've seen thus far!)

Maybe Allen wants to get fired.

 

[SystemShock]

What part of "keep doing what you are doing" did you not understand?

 

[HouseCall]

He’s due!

Wait…nah.

Only averaging 1.8 offensive TD’s per game started for Dalton if you pull out rushing and passing TD’s from Taysom. I didn’t look to see if any of the other rushing touchdowns were handoffs from Taysom.

1.8/game would be good for 28th in the league.

It’s not working.

Start Dalton for the first series, then alternate Jameis and Taysom for the rest of the game. They'll never see it coming!
