Let’s trade him while his value is high and the rest of the league thinks he’s still good. He’s not a playoff caliber quarterback.
I swear I watch different games than some fans. Dalton was great yesterday despite what the stat sheet says. Those plays on the run to boyd were a thing of beauty and something I've wanted to see from AD since he has been in the league. One int was a fail mary, one off the chest of malone, and one where Ross didn't even have his eyes towards the QB.
The only one that wasn't great was his first INT, again, targeting Ross. Even this one wasn't that bad as it was 3rd and 17 and was essentially a short punt.
Dalton was not the issue yesterday. He was easily playing good enough to win that game. The D and Ross failed him.
