In regards to Arians giving Palmer a good game plan...I agree with you.
Look, it goes w/out saying that every player is better with good coaching...not just Andy! I'm not defending ML.
I think our main disagreement is you seem to think a QB should not be judged unless all the pieces are in place for him. Like a good HC, OL, RB's, WR's and a good defense. That's bull manure!
Take a look at the bottom ranked QB's for this season. Which of them have all of the pieces in place? None of them! And IMO it's the main reason for their low ranking. But they still get judged /critiqued by fans and the media don't they?
Your boy Andy is headed towards the bottom in ranking, but it's his HC's fault? Ok, but could you please up date his current passer rating and wins and loses? As you know, it's at the bottom of all of your post.
1. I never said Dalton's situation had to be perfect.
2. Not sure why you bring up "bottom ranked QBs" when Dalton is nowhere near the bottom. That alone proves he's a good QB IMO. Even with poor coaching, a horrendous o-line and no help from the run game, he's still having a solid season.
3. I keep the sig up to date.
