Anywho, here is the link.

If you skip to 27mins they start to talk about Dalton
A quick summary is that Dalton has become so horrible lately that they are ditching the "Dalton Line" all together. As I'm sure you know, these guys decided that a team with a QB worse than Dalton needs a new QB, and a team with a better QB than Dalton is ok at QB (and thus the term Dalton Line was created).
Dalton was so bad last year, that they now see him as the 25th or even 27th QB in the league
Thus, he cannot be the QB or "scale" to judge other QBs off of.
The segment reminded me of jungle noise and gave me a few laughs, although if you dislike Dalton hate, this probably isn't for you.
Rosenthal from PFT? Huge Steeler fan. This kind of thing makes me really want Andy to show them all up. How does a QB who is so bad average 10 wins a season in the regular season? He has problem in the playoffs. I really hope he can get beyond that.
