Dalton will be Dalton, but the success for this season lies with the O-line. If the middle of the O-line cannot keep pressure off of Dalton (circa playoffs 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014), Dalton will struggle, but 95% of the QBs in the NFL will struggle in the same situation. The Oakland game will be telling since their front are very good with Khalil Mack moving to end. If our line struggles next Sunday, it will be a very long year with SI prediction being spot on. However, if this line can get Jeremy Hills holes to run in, it will help setup up the passing game which can translate into a 10 win season. I'll wait and see. However, I am not encourage with the O-line play during the preseason.
