Oh no, never blame Dalton ... blame the Line, the RB's and WR's, the kicker, hell even blame the dude selling popcorn in the upper deck, but never Dalton .

A brainless statue would know not to call 2 runs up the middle against the Ravens D, inside the red zone, in a hurry up situation.
Same thing we thought up here in NH.

If he does a better job on the 2 previous plays (providing they were both necessary), then it's unlikely that play even happens.

I've always been against people wanting AJM to start over Andy, but man... I don't know now.

Just got home and couldn't watch first half. Looks like I didn't miss anything. Hope it gets better.

He's played terrible for 1/2 of a game with a weak o line...maybe give the guy a game or 2 before you toss him aside?!?!

I mean, he's playing awfully in his own right, but I do agree that part of it is this. He used to be pretty good at going through his reads and picking his targets. Now it seems like a lot of quick pre-determined throws. He's making those throws badly, but it's also just a bad system.

Nope, our d has held well besides the maclin TD. If they can hold, we will have more than enough opportunities to get back in.

I think Andy is the starter, but he needs to be benched for the rest of this game. He just doesnt have it today.

The 1st half is a classic display of a team fapping!

Only problem is that the O line has not been terrible. We have had opportunities.

Yup it was like, well, he basically got pussified once they got near the endzone to call those to safe run plays. Then Dalton on that 3rd down was just awful to top it off.
