I totally agree with you. In listening to the radio yesterday and looking back and thinking about everything, it is not that people hate Dalton, it is the fact that people don't trust Dalton. That makes sense and I completely understand. It seems that the criticism of Dalton comes off as hatred instead of trust issues.

Trust issues come with being a sports fan in Cincinnati for the past 20+ years.

Bingo...the trust issues fall on Marvin, who has yet to win a playoff game in 11 seasons and Dalton (0-3 as well). What would it take for those trust issues to go away?

Andy Dalton to be consistently average. But here is the real issue behind Andy. If a guy gets nervous in big games you can't coach him out of that. It is in his DNA to be nervous, it happens to everyone that cares about what they are doing. The problem is you got some guys that can grab the pressure and make themselves better and you got guys like Andy where they get worse. A coach can't help with a psychology issue. Unless, of course, your coach is a psychologist. You can practice all day, show Andy exactly what to do in every situation, but at the end of the day, Andy is on the field and he has to make the plays. But yeah, if Andy can be consistently average, this team can win a Superbowl.

Umm wtf are you guys discussing? Blaming the coaches for how bad Andy sucks in big games? Bullshit. A coach can't teach a player to have balls in big games. Dubs is right, the dude has a mental issue and until he overcomes that, no Super Bowl for the Queen City. Nerves can ruin a career just like an injury.

Ummmmm I think you misread what I was stating...I said the blame/trust falls on two people.....Dalton and Marvin.
In big games, we cant trust Andy or Marvin. Plain and simple...

Well, I guess we need a new coach and a new QB if we want to win a Superbowl.

What would it take to gain that trust with Marvin and Andy?
A playoff win?
A primetime win?
Just curious as to what it would take to gain that trust in those two.

An AFC Championship appearance and to have no Bad Andy in the process of getting there.
