Hell, I'd wager Dalton, who has actually lit it up before has more of a chance of lighting it up in 2017 than McCarron does. Furthermore, our o-line is so bad and our WRs that aren't AJ Green are so awful that we could play McCarron the rest of the year and his supporters would insist that we can't judge him based on his performance in such a hopeless situation.Difference is,I shouldn't even have to say it but mixon is a rook and gio and hill aren't having any success behind our run blocking. The season isnt really lost,it just feels tgat way because we know marvin will not do the right things,and in my opinion dalton hasnt been good enough either .
Sort of the way we clamored for Mixon to be the feature back and now that he is and he's putting up numbers that make Trent Richardson look like Jim Brown we aren't pulling the plug on him. Then again, the season is lost and we know Mixon will be here in 2018 so why not spend the rest of the season putting no-name RB's on the field and seeing if one can be the next Arian Foster?
I must say though if this organization puts Dalton in such a hopeless situation and then benches him because "the season is lost" we may as well just let him walk out the door. That's some lowdown dirty stuff there.
In 2015 I got off his back because he came in with more passion and had improved his game under house. I think he even had a pump fake sometimes. But... 2016 he went back to his usual self,hue wasn't around and he didn't have his 2nd and 3rd receivers he was so familiar with plus key injuries did us in later.
