End of the "Dalton Scale"?

You put Tannehill on this team, no chemistry issues, why would it be shocking that he maybe would do better than what Andy's done?

My simple answer is because he hasn't done as well playing in a less talented conference and usually with a third place schedule. How has Tannehill fared against teams like putzburg and baltiwhore? I don't care to look it up, but the level of competition you play does matter.

The one thing Dalton has working against him in the eyes of many of the talking heads, and posters here, is that the most recent memory isn't a very good one. They forget breaking Palmer's franchise records in his third season for yards and TDs.

He had to learn a new offense, and he was significantly limited in his help on offense due to injury. Even Sir Tom Brady looked very pedestrian playing with a young receiver corps and without Gronk just a couple years ago.

I believe he will have a very good year and if the team stays healthy, they can make a run in the playoffs....potentially all the way.
