Depends if Dalton is underthrowing him all the time, if not no one would be to blame but Ross.
There was a game last year where Ross could of had 3 TD's in one game instead of just 1 cause Dalton was underthrowing him.

I don't know. It's hard.
Players grow in their 3rd season all the time. AB didn't have as many TD's as Ross in his first couple of years and AB wasn't as dinged up going into and in his rookie season while being in the HC's dog house. This and how fans continually talk about Ross being a bust and wanting him cut make me defend him.
I think some people are a little crazy on here with their Ross hate. If he doesn't perform this season when he now has an offensive coach and with Dalton having more time? I will stop defending him if he doesn't produce.
His yardage last season was very disappointing even with the 7 TD's.

Off the top of my head I think I can count the amount of times they tried throwing him a screen pass on one hand. That just seems like a no brainer to me.
Precisely, have to use him right and all the weapons. This has always been a weakness around here.

Yeah, sure would be extremely stupid to cut a player like Ross. One thing i said before him even being drafted by us is that he will open up the Offense just by being on the field and this is a very underrated trait that not many players have.

this season.
7 TDs is 7 TDs no matter how you want to slice it.
give him a chance with a OC that can actually attach his name
to a successful offense i.e the Rams.
Spot on Impactplaya, quite amazing.

Yes sir.
