Your stats probably include a 10 yard pass where the receiver ran 30+ yards. I'm talking about a deep pass in the air. I'm not on drugs.
This is a perfect example of you not paying close enough attention. Not being snarky or anything like that, but clearly in my post, i said "on passes traveling 31 yards or more".
If you're talking about passes traveling 50+ yards in the air, that's rare. And because of that, not many people keep detailed stats on it. Still, if you've watched enough Bengals games, you've seen him complete passes like that on numerous occasions.
Regardless, 30, 40 or 50 yards in the air, Dalton performs well when compared to other QBs in the NFL so you're conclusion that "Dalton can't throw a deep pass" is incorrect.
