No one said anything about elite, but I've always found it curious that folks think Dalton should somehow be immune to the Marvin affect.
The whole team wets the bed at the mere mention of playoffs, but Dalton - and Dalton ALONE - should somehow also shoulder the lion's share of the blame.
No other players. How can they be expected to perform under a choking coach? But Dalton though? He should rise above the Marvin stink. Makes no sense, but maybe that's just me. Seems more like an easy way for people to hate on Marv and Dalton at the same time. Just pretend the QB isn't affected by the HC. I wonder if Drew Brees would agree with that notion? Or Jared Goff?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
