Dalton has good yardage stats so far this season because he's had to throw the ball 5,000 times, but otherwise he has not looked good. Say whatever you will about it not being his fault entirely, but who's watching this team right now and chomping at the bit to get a hold of Dalton?
Start Dalton until they have been eliminated from playoff contention (which, mercifully, could happen as early as this month). Once they're firmly out of the playoffs, give Finley and Dolegala the rest of the season to see what you have.
Not a good time to trade him when he is sucking it up that is for sure.
Still would like to see Finley some time later this year if Dalton continues to panic.
This was always my biggest criticism of Dalton over the years, the pocket awareness and I have been a supporter of his.
Think Dalton has been ruined by shitty Line play and he cannot get it out of his head.
The best QB's like Brady step into the pocket regardless and chuck it without fear.
Saw a little of this with Finley this Preseason and Hopkins is the one bright spot on the Line.
Hopkins at the very least usually gives you a bit of a pocket.
