They said they couldn't follow Dalton due to the zone coverage. Said that they'd get "walled off" (which admittedly I don't know what that means) or a DB would undercut the route.
If you're Dalton, what do you do at that point? I think he did a fantastic job of protecting the ball and taking what was there, considering the circumstances. He took a few deep shots, but the coverage was all over that.
Walled off is basically when the QB starts to scramble, the zone linebackers and/or dbs "wall off" the receivers behind them trying to prevent a throw, or force an interception.
