I've also listened to Dave Lapham, who's a former lineman and who watches every play of every game.
His opinion is that Andy's play is suffering because of the beatings he's taking on a weekly basis.
There's no doubt that Andy still makes bad decisions at times, but you can't discount the effects that playing behind a horrible line has on a QB.
Nobody is discounting the inferior O line. What others are trying to point out is that there are plenty of QBs in the NFL that would overcome those deficiencies and play at a much higher level than Dalton.
He's had the luxury of having a top 5 WR his entire career and above average o line play his entire career besides this season.....so enough with the excuses.
