Which team is the best fit for Andy Dalton?

Honestly don't think Dwayne Haskins is your guy.  

He actually had the chance to start and went 500 on TD/INTs for half a season.  

If he was Washington's future, he would have done much better in that time span.  That's plenty of time to prove himself.  

He doesn't have it.  

Andy Dalton to Washington makes sense.  

You might be right. He didn't light the world on fire. But I'll give a rookie on the 2nd worst team in the NFL another shot.

In his actual starts he went 7/3 TD to INT. The other 4 INTs where he went in as a back up.

I don't like Haskins either, but the guy had 4 starts and played in 5 games. That's not nearly big enough a sample size to write off a FRP, and it's especially not enough for a QB (who's NFL learning curve is notoriously more difficult than any other position).

Haskins looked like a functional QB in the final quarter of the season.

Rookie QBs make mistakes. You learn to rollerskate by falling down and getting back up. Replacing them with a retread like Dalton only hinders progression.

Playing on a team almost devoid of offensive talent under two different head coaches? Another rookie QB would've done much better in that situation?

As a Patriots fan, I love Dalton over Hoyer all day long. What if Stidham isn’t ready? Are we just going to hand the keys to Hoyer? That’s madness.

Andy Dalton deserved much better than what he got in Cincinnati. If he had any kind of team around him, and if they had any kind of coaching around them, Dalton would have at least found his way into an AFC Championship Game appearance. He would automatically be the best quarterback in the AFC East by default, and the transition of the Patriots’ quarterback situation would be all the more gradual.

The best place for Dalton or Newton is New England. The problem would be Belichick actually wanting either of them.

Following Brady would be minimized for both guys since their reps are already in the toilet at the moment.

It would be a tough situation to throw Stidham out there for 16 games while Brady lights it up in Tampa.

Would you rather be handed a starting gig for that Patriots offense following those footsteps or wait for Minshew to falter? 

Would easily take the Patriots route. Opportunity to potentially start right away. A franchise that has proven to always be in contention to compete for the playoffs year in and year out under BB. That’s the optimal path for sure.
