I remember when everyone wanted to get rid of Anderson and then he had his great season of 1981.

Dalton's 4 year stats very similar to Anderson and just slightly below Carson and Boomer.

Lots of other players had bad games in all four playoff loses and last year we had too many people injured.

Need to put things together this year.

I hope everyone is rooting for AJ to shine in the pre-season games.

I hope everyone is rooting for AD to shine as well.

I get frustration and I understand losing faith in a player.

I just don't understand hoping our starting QB stumbles so a 2nd year back up with no pre-season or regular season snaps takes over as the starter. I wanted AJ drafted and even though he was worthy of a round higher pick. I hope he becomes a HOF QB, but I will never hope he gets his shot this year because our QB failed to deliver.

I keep reading comments about AD is average at best and a few feel he is not NFL starting QB worthy. I laugh when it is pointed out in 2013 he was 8th in the NFL throwing the deep ball when some say he has a weak arm. I laugh when some pointy out one snap shot game (Cleveland) and dismiss his opposite off the chart great games entirely as it does not fit their opinion and in some cases pure hatred for AD the QB.

I am still in the fence with AD as far as moving up to being a very good NFL QB in the coming years. To anyone who says he is below average based on his experience (only 4 years) and those results factoring in all of the facts including no time to learn anything early after 2012 due to the lock out and then the injuries (yes they were brutal when your #1 all world receiver misses 6 games, #2 misses 16, TE plays 8 snaps so in essence entire year, TE Gresham also gone by playoffs and missed some games, Wright and Sanz. by playoffs.

I like our offense in 2015 and I am glad we have an experienced QB to lead them. I like the prospects our young back up may be ready for emergency situations in 2015.
