Dalton has been very good this season. In the first two weeks, the Bengals led the league in drops and yet Dalton was still doing good. He has a 3:1 TD to INT ratio. Completing 67% of his throws, which is the highest of his career. He is carrying this offense in every way. Whether calling out different plays to literally carrying the team on his back. Heck, the team looks so much better when he's out there doing no huddle and making the calls himself.
And people forget, Dalton didn't have as much time with LaFell. Dalton has been one of our best players and arguably the best player on this team right now. The biggest issue is blocking and play calling. Too many times you see Dalton have to move out of the pocket and too many times you see receivers run the same route. Heck. There's been numerous times where it takes the Bengals forever to throw a pass more than 5 yards. There's a lot of pre-determined and check down throws early on. Which isn't a bad thing, but you can tell play calling is holding this team back.
