So basically the Denver and Colts game are the two where the yards aren't high. And why did Dalton need to be 'protected'? The running game was working extremely well, so why would they turn to Dalton while they're up the entire game pretty much? They ran for 207 total yards. Why would you want to air it out while the run game is having THAT much success? Dalton did what was asked of him. Sorry he didn't put up 300 passing yards.
Against Denver, it's not the fact that he didn't put up big numbers, it's the fact that he was missing his targets by miles when he was asked to put any distance at all on his passes.
