Dalton was on the same tear in 2013 ended with career and record setting numbers, but the national media called him a bum (said he was below average, Jaws ranked him below Bradford, Stafford, Cutler, Kaep) and told us he should be cut and we should be in the market of a new qb (hello Carr/Bridgewater/Johnny football) fans ran with it. It looks like he will have 2013 numbers again this year and the media tells us he's turned the corner and those same fans run wit that narrative. If you've watched Dalton you know his ceiling and we are seeing it. We've seen it before. It's nothing new, the consistency maybe but it's only been 3 games. Those national media heads acting like it's a new Dalton, just are out to cover for their unfair narrative of his career accomplishments.
Fact is Dalton has been a very successful qb, and should be ashamed of his career as a 2nd round draft pick. There are many teams, 28 other ones, who wish they were lucky enough to have a below average qb. Why? Cause only 4 other teams have made the playoffs back to back years the last 4 (and looking like 5) years. It's time the national media focuses on the qb's of those other 28 teams. Not one of the big 4.
So much flawed bullshit throughout this post, it's unreal.
Andy has never played like he has been in 2015. Watch the games, not the stat sheets.
Fans didn't run with anything other than their own opinions of actually watching the football games. I don't need anyone else to tell me that Andy had an awfully average career from 2011 - 2014. We can figure that out on our own.
Winning games is a team accomplishment, not an individual one. Andy isn't better than every other QB that's on a team that has won less games over the last 4 years. That's absurdly poor logic.
Meh, I'm not surprised that casual fans still buy into this type of stuff though.
