Loving what Van Pelt is doing with Dalton. I particularly like this quote from that article:
“Every quarterback should be able to drop back and throw a 5 route or come-back route in a clean pocket,” Van Pelt said. “Any quarterback should be able to do that. It’s when the body is under duress. That’s my approach. It’s when you have to throw off your back foot or throw when your left foot is behind your right foot and you’re all messed up down below. That’s what we try to emphasize during those individual periods.”
I’ve seen it said a lot on this board that “Dalton can pick teams apart when he has time” well yeah...most QB’s can. Now we’re seeing him make big plays even when things aren’t perfect though. And it’s awesome.
