CBS Sports says Andy Dalton was worst free agent signing in the NFL

By RILEY GATES

The Chicago Bears got in on the quarterback carousel this NFL offseason when they signed former Dallas Cowboys backup quarterback Andy Dalton to a one-year deal worth $10 million to replace Mitch Trubisky and Nick Foles as the starting quarterback. But according to CBS Sports’ Cody Benjamin, signing Dalton was the worst signing of the NFL offseason.

“This has nothing to do with the money and everything to do with the implications,” Benjamin wrote. “Dalton’s $10M salary basically makes him a really highly paid backup, but he’s apparently already been told he’ll start in 2021, which ... yikes. Is he an upgrade over Nick Foles? Maybe. But even Mitchell Trubisky would’ve offered more upside, for crying out loud. Unless Chicago pairs this with a surprise trade (Sam Darnold?) or early-draft QB addition, it’ll likely cement the Bears in another year of fringe contention.”

His job isn't to write well-reasoned opinions, or constructively criticize, it's to get clicks.

The bold move would have been to break from the cloying and noxious herd and give a positive take on Dalton, and the possibility that he could be exactly what Chicago was looking for...

 

[Pharm Frog]

Worst in history? Bold

Somehow I keep thinking Jerry Jones adding his son PacMan for that distinction.
At least I don't see Andy getting in trouble at the local strip club.

Naah. That's just jostling to get to the front of the herd of stupid geese that make up the Sportswriting Congnoscenti in these sad times...

I don't see that distinction anywhere in the article. Was that in there and removed, or am I just missing where it says worst in history?

I just read the headline. Says worst. No time limitation.

Maybe worst in the third week of March 2021. Maybe that's fair.
