The sum of my posts was that I believe that AD is a good quarterback with potential to be exceptional. I also believe that at least a small part of the team's overall attitude is attributed to his lack of natural leadership.
I'm NOT a Dalton hater by any stretch. As I've said numerous times, I think he's got the physical skills to be a damn good QB.
Recently though, watching him laughing it up on the sidelines while getting our asses kicked, and totally bailing out on a 4th down play is what has brought his leadership into question for me. Take those two optics away and my original post wouldn't exist.
Maybe it's that, as the QB and overall team leader, I'm over estimating his influence on the team, or maybe I'm holding him to too high a standard. It's a moot point...I'm not the one that signs his checks.
I guess I focused too much on these lines:
Quote:I was saying you forgot about AJ's frustration and rant after the Houston game about him not getting the ball.
AJ depends very much on Dalton for him to be successful. What do you think he's going to say?
But after reading it again, it's obvious I misread you. Apologies.
I kinda wish you would've focused more on the first reply I made, as that was the better post anyway.
