Let’s consider yesterday in perspective; a “snapshot” if you will. Andy Dalton HAD to throw it 51 times. I didn’t like seeing that — and neither did Zac Taylor or Brian Callahan — but with no run game it was the only way to move the ball. I’m not faulting Zac for calling all those pass plays, either, and the fact that he didn’t keep trying the run is commendable because he knew it wasn’t there.
35/51 for 418 yards and two touchdowns is an anomaly. Don’t forget this.
anomaly as in we wont throw that much or anomaly as in Dalton cant keep those stats up? its the first time hes ever had 50+ attempts I believe.
