As referenced in the Arizona game example, Dalton missed 2 throws on the final drive that was the difference between a FG and a TD and the lead. 

No doubt, we will see if there's a difference in those games with how this coaching staff approaches and calls a game, but it still always comes down the QB making the throw when the play is called. 

We may never know how much coaching hurt or helped AD. ZT has never coached a game in college or NFL (head coach) so jury is out.

As for AD, yes the TEAM has not played well in prime time and AD was no exception. But, can we agree your arguments lose steam when you say he is not a leader and has not performed in the clutch. He is one of the leaders in 4th quarter comebacks to win games and that does not include games our defense was given the lead in the last 2 minutes, but could not hold it.
