There's only a few outliers, but QBs need solid receivers to be able to play well. Even elite QBs don't play well w/o solid weapons (obviously there is a outlier or two). Especially if it's early in the QBs career like it was with Dalton. Plus it was Daltons first year in Hues system.So far, so good. Gotta get to that place where playing like this is second nature. Did a nice job overcoming adversity Sunday. Actually, the whole team overcame the turnovers.
People just need to cut Dalton some slack. He hasn't had the easiest start of his career if you think about it. He was put on a team that their only real weapon was a rookie WR. He was put in a division that had the #1 defense for multiple years, and the Ravens/Browns always have great defenses. I do think all of those hardships that Dalton had to endure is going to payoff in the long run though. He will be used to facing good defenses, and he will be used to playing with subpar talent (now that he has legit weapons it will make everything easier). I think everyone will recognize how good Dalton is this year.
Everybody has raised their game. When the people around him are playing well and the OC is calling a great game, it makes it so much easier on the QB.
Hopefully, everybody will stay on this roll. This team's best (which we may not have seen yet) is really good.
