I'll continue to be a Dalton supporter and will say that in his first 4 seasons he performed at a level very few QBs in NFL history and even fewer in recent history performed at as well. Downers will keep being downers until a playoff game is won, there is no point in trying to convince them. He can get the job done. He had a down season because of a new system (not really I cooperated until week 9) and injuries. But now we have a run game which is potentially the most lethal duo in the league. And the real reason for the turn around from 4-12 to playoff bound? The defense. Defense and the run were, are and always will be vital factors for any success (look at the 49ers from 2010-2014 with Alex Smith and Kaep, Ravens SB win, Seahawks).
