Hm. Wonder who addressed this topic way back in September? :-)
It's funny, though -- it seemed like there was a lot of anti-Dalton sentiment leading into this season, and now it's "there's too much Andy love!"
Here's the thing: what Robert and I tried to capture in different ways is that yes, as a person, he's the same guy he's always been. But -- BUT -- he's not the same quarterback. So ... what is it? And you can't say it doesn't matter because everyone else says it does (like my wife says, you can't tell anyone how to feel) -- and lo and behold the team is 9-2 and he's in the MVP conversation for the first time.
