**** this team.
Carson didn't have that freedom either. I wish Dalton would just assert himself, but he's a company guy just like Carson was...until Carson asked for a trade. At this point, I wish Dalton would too. He deserves a better coach and a fan base that might actually appreciate him.

Use CBSsports.com
Much better layout.

You just know Jackson hits Uzo on that 3rd down play. I don’t know where the Dalton who was throwing so well on the move earlier in the season has gone.
Dalton had a good game considering the circumstances. 2 TDs, 0 turnovers, 89.0 passer rating, led team in rushing.
We gave up 268 yards rushing and 23 first downs.
Mixon/Gio combined for 19 yards on 14 carries.
When you have multiple injuries to top receivers (Green, Eifert, Kroft) and your run game gets stuffed, you're being unreasonable to expect a better game than Dalton just had. He gave us a fighting chance despite it all.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
