It is rare that QBs develop in a year.  I like McCarron, but he does not react quick enough to me.  He'll learn it, but I'd take Dalton all day every day over him.

I don't see AJM taking over the starting spot unless he takes us to a SB and starts it and Dalton can't make it back into the line up. Even then, I'd still give it only a 40% chance. A lot of what if's would have to come true for that to happen. AJM hasn't proven he's better than Dalton for even one game yet.

Dalton is no longer the Dalton of 2014.

AJM has a ways to go, but to expect him to top Dalton's 2015 play in only a few starts is rather over critical. It took Dalton to his 5th year to play the way he has. To be critical of AJM because he hasn't reached that level in only a few games is rather ridiculous.
