Bengals' Starting Lineup One Of The Youngest In The League

Cincy Jungle — With all the talk about quarterback Andy Dalton, it's easy to forget that football is primarily a team sport. Twenty-two men take the field at any given time, and while it's true that one weak link can invite failure, by and large, games are won or lost by the efforts of an entire group of players. So while discussions about the long-term viability of a certain third-year pro do have their place, that doesn't mean we should overlook the importance of the other twenty-one players around him. Which brings us to the point of this article. According to a statistical breakdown by ESPN's Mik...

Dalton impresses on deep throws

CBSSports.com Fantasy — The Cincinnati Enquirer noticed two highlight passes from Andy Dalton in OTA practice Tuesday, connecting on a bomb to A.J. Green on the first throw of the session and another to Marvin Jones, who beat double coverage. "I think it’s quickening up the drop or throwing the ball a little higher on different throws and things like that," Dalton said of what's changed on throwing deep. "With the time that we've had with the phase before this one getting into OTAs we've put in some work and I definitely see an improvement."

Top 10 Quarterbacks 25 Or Under: Andy Dalton Comes In At 9

Cincy Jungle — Everybody loves rankings. They are a simple way to present information in a logical and easily-digestible fashion. They give rise to snap comparisons. And most importantly, they allow the fans of higher-ranked teams to stick their tongues out and make rude gestures in the direction of the fans of lower-ranked teams. All in all, a pretty good deal. But with the popularity of rankings, sometimes things get ranked just for the sake of saying they've been ranked. Such is the case with Gregg Rosenthal's list of the top ten quarterbacks 25-years-old or younger on NFL.com. For the most part, ...

Andy Dalton Lets Pressures Turn Into Sacks Too Easily

Cincy Jungle — Young superstar quarterbacks are taking over the NFL these days. Andrew Luck of the Indianapolis Colts and Robert Griffin III of the Washington Redskins are the quintessential franchise quarterbacks. Yet, it's Russell Wilson's Seahawks and Colin Kaepernick's 49ers who find themselves atop offseason league power rankings. Dalton isn't even in the young, elite QB conversation. To most, he is ranked comfortably in the middle of the league. Perhaps in the 12-20 range. Though, NFL.com's Marc Sessler placed Dalton all the way down at No. 22, as we published yesterday. Should Dalton be placed...

Bengals CB Adam Jones "Apparently" Tweaked His Calf

Cincy Jungle — At some point during practice on Tuesday, Bengals wide receiver Marvin Jones was tracking a deep ball thrown by quarterback Andy Dalton. Safety Taylor Mays and cornerback Adam Jones were covering. Well, they tried. Jones' blazing speed broke free from coverage, hauling in the deep pass that Joe Reedy with the Cincinnati Enquirer observed "might have been the nicest of the day. Jones was able to get a couple steps on the defensive backs and Dalton was able to lay it in there." Soon after, Adam Jones gingerly walked off the field; though we're not sure if it was immediately after the pla...

Andy Dalton Fairly Low On Quarterback Rankings From NFL.com

Cincy Jungle — Every Bengals fan knows that Andy Dalton isn't Tom Brady, Peyton Manning or Aaron Rodgers. They also know that, right now, the third-year signal caller isn't Drew Brees, Matt Ryan or even Eli Manning. However, he has played well enough for the Bengals to go to the playoffs two years in a row and he is about where Joe Flacco was at this point in his career. While some have given up on him for one reason or another, it's fair to say there's still hope Dalton can take the Bengals to the Super Bowl -- with the help of the offensive talent around him and a strong defense, of course.

Top-Five Bengals Players With The Most To Prove: Number Four

Cincy Jungle — In a way Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton confuses me. If you print out his statistics after two years on your dot-matrix printer, you only notice progression. Touchdowns, completion percentage, yards passing, he's clearly showing an upward arrow, leading many to conclude the necessity of weapons-building around him. Cincinnati selected running backs that won't just help the rushing offense; they'll give Dalton options out of the backfield. There's Tyler Eifert and year two of Mohamed Sanu and Marvin Jones. In other words, those excuses that surround Dalton are fading. Dalton is a good...

Round Table: Buy Or Sell

Cincy Jungle — Buy or Sell: Andy Dalton will pass the 4,000-yard mark in 2013 Mickey M. Buy. I think with adding Tyler Eifert and a healthy Mohamed Sanu, Dalton is going to have the opportunity to fully run the west coast style offense we think Gruden wants to implement. These yards may not come in huge chunks by throwing a ton of deep passes, but smaller chunks that move the sticks.Anthony C. Wow, that's a toughie. Is there a push? I'll say sell, but not by much. I think he will continue to improve and will lean on his new toys in Tyler Eifert and Giovani Bernard in the passing game, but I still thi...

Bengals James Harrison a "Massage Whore," has no opinion of Andy Dalton

Behind the Steel Curtain — Perhaps former Steelers and current Bengals outside linebacker James Harrison is moving into the "James Being James" phase of his career. Or, perhaps it's because Steelers fans have had a front row seat all these years to his entertaining comments over the years, it's doubly enjoyable getting to see another fan base partake. James Harrison left for less green pastures The numbers behind James Harrison's contract with Cincinnai were revealed and he took a little bit of a paycut. Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio grabbed a tidbit from Harrison's press conference with the Bengals Tu...

Camp Battles: Backup Quarterback

Cincy JungleAndy Dalton is the Bengals quarterback and he will start, as long as he's healthy, in every game of the season. Every good team has a capable backup, though. If the worst case scenario were to take place and Dalton were to be injured, the Bengals would need a quarterback capable of leading the offense. In 2011 and 2012, that quarterback would have been Bruce Gradkowski, but he is Ben Roethlisberger's backup in Pittsburgh now. So who will be the new backup quarterback? On the roster: Josh Johnson: Johnson was signed on March 21 by the Bengals. He had previously spent four years in Tampa...

Andy Dalton deserves another season to improve

Cincy Jungle — A common theme on Bengals boards and even the comments for this site are questioning if Andy Dalton is the right QB for the Bengals moving forward. I have seen countless posts claiming if he fails to win playoff games this season then the Bengals should look to replace him. In his first two seasons Dalton has done nothing less than get the Bengals to the playoffs. (Not something that was common before he was drafted). He also posts an incredible 4th quarter passer rating and has brought this team back in the 4th several times. Losing the last game of the season stinks, it leaves a sour...

Dalton takes a peek at Eifert

CBSSports.com Fantasy — Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton wasn't allowed to practice with rookie tight end Tyler Eifert during the team's rookie minicamp but did catch a few snaps of his workout Friday. Per the official team website, Eifert lined up in "at least four different spots" including the slot. His best catch was a one-handed grab on a go-route. "You can tell Tyler has really good body control when the ball is in the air, but you could see that on film when you're watching him in college," Dalton said.
