That year for Dalton, he had perhaps his best year throwing mid-deep, with a 130.4 rating on throws of 11-20 yards, and a 114.6 rating on throws of 21-30 yards. In the past, Dalton had struggled on the mid-range stuff. I remember Hue saying something about removing routes that Dalton struggled with and playing more to his strengths. Seemed like common sense, but NFL coordinators have big ego's.

Either way, Dalton looked very comfortable attacking downfield that year, routinely making throws we hadn't seen him make before. Hopefully we can get back to that.

He had an offensive line that year that could actually block and give him time to throw.
