This is entirely based on him not trusting his offensive line. That QB clock is shortened and that paranoia sets it. No, this isn't taking an issue away from Dalton. Dalton has to be able to forgive and forget. You see it from the best QBs (ala Rodgers/Roethlisberger) Heck, in the case of Big Ben, I've seen him not only get destroyed in the pocket but make some of the worst throws I've ever seen a QB make (especially a SB winner). Dalton's timing, his QB clock is shortened and this just goes to my personal issue, which is lack of confidence.

This can be changed with new personnel, more time with that personnel and of course, a good ol' pat in the back. 

This post drips with awesome sauce. It’s true: Andy Dalton rarely has time in the pocket to go through his entire progression of receivers. It takes five to six seconds for a wide receiver to get into position for a deep ball and if the defensive line collapses the pocket in three seconds then Andy has to immediately go to his short route checkdown receiver or tuck the ball and run if that's even possible.
