I can't believe we're comparing Dalton and Burrow.
I was a Dalton supporter. Not because he was great but because he was good enough with a really good supporting cast. Take that away and he was just serviceable, smart and wasn't going to make too many mistakes.
He wasn't great.
I don't care what the stats say between the 2 and how many games Dalton won and how many times he made it to the playoffs. He never looked 'special'.
Burrow is special and anyone that watched him play knows it.
No he didn't win many games but it sure as hell wasn't his fault. He carried the team on his back and balled hard than anyone on the field and his cast let him down over and over.
He tried to will his way to a win week after week and it felt like the rest of the team was just watching rather than participating sometimes. It never felt that way with Dalton. He never seemed like his game elevated above the play around him, he's was just there.
I hope that changes this year.
