The difference in Andy Dalton

[BFritz21]

I think the biggest differences are that he's playing with more confidence and he's delivering strikes and bullets to receivers.

Instead of just finding a receiver and kind of lobbing a ball into him, he's standing in the pocket, going through progressions, finding his guy, and then throwing the ball with force and zip.

His long balls also look better in the way that he's not just putting everything he has into throws and hoping that they get there (which they often didn't) because now he's dropping long balls right where he wants them to land with the ability to throw far downfield.
