If the Bengals finish with 1-2 wins and Finley doesn't do any better than Dalton are you still gonna be slobbing on Finley's knob because he was starting and Haskins isn't?
I find it hella pathetic the amount of freaking out this fanbase is doing over Haskins not starting. Why do you care if he starts or not as long as next year or the year after he's playing like a pro qb? We're not contending this year, winning games only hurts our draft position.
You guys question the process like the process of getting your rookie qb to start for a team that fired the HC and replaced him with a guy who's been coaching o-line for the last 15 years is the norm?
Why don't we ask Baker Mayfield if starting early last year for a HC who was promoted from QB coach is helping him now?

1. You need to see what we have in the rookie NOW...with a potential top 3 pick in the draft, we could be in a position to draft a top line QB prospect in the coming draft. Its working for Arizona versus Josh Rosen 2. Its extremely unusual for a 1st round QB to not be getting playing time in his first year. Its actually really strange. Its already speaking to the fact he was over drafted. 3. Game speed, how to run an offense, call plays, situational football....the more he knows, the better he gets. The biggest factor is this experience: RIGHT NOW it is ok to make mistakes with zilch to play for. Fuck, go out and throw 4 picks...its ok, we aren't winning the superbowl (don't let Bruce know, but we aint close).
There really isn't a negative at this point in the season.
