A different perspective on Dalton

1.) When he is kept somewhat clean, he picks teams apart.  And by somewhat, I mean that without Ogbuehi out there, no one is getting an untouched shot, but he doesn't have very long.  He makes very quick decisions.  

2.) Even though he has almost no threat of a running game, he is still on pace for 4500 yards and only has 6 INTs in 439 pass attempts.  Only Carr and Stafford have fewer INTs(both have 5) with similar number of attempts.

3.) Despite a new OC, two primary weapons gone (not saying Lafell and Boyd are not capable, but they are in their first year with him), not having Eifert the first half of the season, and now not having AJ for three games, Dalton has completed 64.4% of his passes, has 3375 yards (on pace for 4500), 14 TDs, and just 6 INTs.  

I will say it again.  He may not be the best QB in the NFL, but he is the best VALUE and I think they can absolutely win a championship with him.

All this is fine until you state you think we can win a Championship with him.  It has been been Six Years.  He has not won a playoff game yet.  I don't see how anyone can think he will get it done, with a declining defense, the ins and outs of coaching staff, and with his own performance going into decline due to age in the next 2-3 years.  Don't see it happening.
