Dalton: The Point Guard

Brady and Rodgers do all the time. As we all know, they receive hella-hype. And rightfully so. They make throws that no other QB in this league makes.

All I'm saying is that the team doesn't necessarily have to be on his shoulders anymore. By basketball analogy, Dalton doesn't have to make the big shots. All he has to do is dish it out. 

Just from watching him this year, this seems to be the biggest difference in his actual play. Not talking about confidence or anything like that (while obviously that has changed considerably too). I think he's realizes he doesn't have to be Rodgers or Brady or Kobe. He just has to dish it out 90% of the time. Then, when his number is called to make the big shots, he's settled in, locked in, and not phased.

And this is purely speculation based off of observations.

Dalton is currently tied with Rivers for TDs targeted to a receiver at least 20 yards downfield with 5.  Brady has 0, Rodgers has 2.  He's also second in yardage from passes thrown 20 yards or more downfield with 568 yards.  Rodgers is 28th with 220 yards and Brady is 15th with 340 yards.

Based on my observations and the statistics, those guys are dinking and dunking and Dalton is the one throwing the ball downfield.
