Being critical of him not being able to move the ball in the second half during a torrential downpour? How well did Ben do? How well did Tom Brady or Andy do in the game they played when it was raining that hard. Some of your hard ons for Dalton are just ridiculous. AJ McCarron has played ridiculously well during his first 4 starts. I felt way better with him at the helm than I did through Daltons first 2 seasons. I honestly would be up for trading Dalton in the offseason, getting a 1st round pick or more and having an extra 20 million or so to extend our own and maybe add a key piece. McCarron did in his 4th start what Dalton couldnt over years. Give us a chance to win the game. Ill take that any day. Of course we didnt move the ball the past few games all that well as we were dead set on shortening the game. Same thing we did with Dalton when he was a young qb.

Here is the major problem with your post.. you go after Dalton for AJM performance.. why do you have a hard on against Dalton.. Praise AJM I have no problem with that... but why bring Dalton into it.. the problem is that the people that praised AJM at same time throw Dalton under the bus and he did not even play in the damn game.. give me a break.

I am also glad you are such a great study on a QB after 4 games.. I am guessing you would have had Bruce or Kearns in the Hall of Fame for baseball  after a month or two performances when they started... 

The other problem is you are talking apples to oranges.. this has zero to do with Andy's first 4 games (which by the way was a straight up rookie with less weapons than we have today for sure ) vs. AJM that has been with the team for two years now.... big difference.. Also we don;t have a Starting QB that just completed 4 games.. we have a backup that just completed 4 games.

What we have at starting Qb is a 5 TIME PLAYOFF LEAD QB.. that is rated in top 5 to 7 in the NFL... why in the world would you trade him... but I figured out why you would trade him.. 

I will take Dalton's level right now over AJM all day.. Remember what potential means " you have not done shit yet"... after just 4 games that is pretty much where AJM stands on the big NFL picture.. I like AJM but this Dalton bashing after a MVP season just shows how bad you hate Dalton
