Things were split down the middle with him almost from day 1. It really heated up in years 2 and 3. Fortunately, Dalton debates are almost a thing of the past. If he wins a playoff game or 3, I'd like to think that everyone will finally be in agreement. He's done a lot for this franchise, but that one hurdle remains for him and the team.
The problem with Dalton was that he was just good enough to not be easily replaced. Neither side had a rock solid argument because he was neither among the top ten nor the bottom ten.
And if Andy were to have a bad season this year because he was sacked 60 times and lost both Green and Eifert to injury the vultures would be right back out.
