Marvin Jones, along with Eifert and AJ Green and even Gio have all "bailed Dalton out", just saying MJ was one of those guys Andy relied on in crucial 3rd and 4th down situations.
I wondered that as I posted, but you probably shouldn't have used the term "bailed out".
"Bailed out" generally implies that the QB made a bad throw and the receiver had to make a big play to even get to the ball. Or that the QB himself in incapable of leading the receiver into yardage, so the receiver has to create some yards on his own.
Sorry if I got you wrong, but that's usually what I think of when someone says a receiver bailed out a QB.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
