You know I'm not the biggest Andy believer in the world, but I'm not going to ignore how he has been great in the RZ throughout his career. FWIW, 3 out of 4 seasons he has zero red zone interceptions.
Why "wear them down" with your RBs when you have one of the best red zone QBs in the entire league though? That's my point. Throw everything else about Andy out the window for a minute and look at his performances within the opponents 20.
Exactly. Dalton is an average-ish QB. We all agree there...well except for maybe CB and a couple extreme homers.
Why ignore one of his strengths? Even if they have a great run game (they do), it makes them extremely predictable if they're never throwing around the red zone.
Of course, I doubt things bounce the same way this year. Hue will probably change that up, and that's one of many reasons why I have a feeling that Dalton is in for a rebound season.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
