Why do you think that is? Dalton’s entire career we’ve ran short quick passes. This isn’t new. Has his line been so bad earlier in his career that he always had to do quick passes then too? No. He cannot read a defense. That why we don’t see wide open throws against zone coverage. Andy cannot read a defense. By now all defenses have to do is take away his short game. Guess what bringing that many people closer to the line of scrimmage also helps stop the run. Coincidence that our offense has issues all year including the worst run offense in the NFL.
Guess what else...we started throwing downfield in the first half and stopped throwing short of the chains and we were running the ball all over them. Second half Andy shows up and we go back to playing short of the chains. Andy had several bad deep throws this game...so let’s not pretend that 3 drops were the entire reason for our offense disappearing in the second half. Every team this year will dare us to beat them with Andy’s arm. Not just short quick throws but passes that every NFL QB should be able to make. Not throws five yards out of bounds.
