It's officially over
(10-01-2019, 09:25 PM)BenZoo2 Wrote: Yes, obviously qb is the most important position on the field.  And daltons play can certainly be called.  But I highly doubt any qb on the roster last night would have lead us to victory.  I'd rather not watch a rookie qb get thrown to wolves when the ol was overmatched and watch his confidence go down the drain.

No doubt, rookies are typically going to have a rough go of it when you throw them in against a defense that's more talented than they've ever seen in college. That's not to say it can't be done successfully. We've seen a few examples this season alone. 

The bottom line is, you know what Dalton can and can't do behind center. Mostly, he can't, and especially can't behind this line because he has minimal mobility and no pocket presence. He's not a guy that's--either been taught or just has the inate ability--to move in the pocket or simply start climbing the pocket once he reaches the top of his drop. He has done it but it's rare. Some QBs just automatically have that clock in their head where they start to move at a certain point. 

I don't know how Finley would do with this team for a full game against #1s across the board but i do know that Dalton mostly shits the bed these days. One thing that is certain is, when pressed during pre season games, Finley showed a clear ability to feel pressure and move around in the pocket, giving himself time to complete passes. 

This offense is as stagnant as it could possibly be and along with the QB, the play calling is to blame as well. ZT said they "needed to try and get some rhythm together, going forward" and it just wasn't working. It felt like it was well past time to get Dalton out of there simply because he was doing next to nothing, most of the time. 

Finley may not be the answer. No QB currently on the team may be the answer. But you will never know if he could be better unelss you put him in the damn game. He's not some bug-eyed 21 year old rookie that's only had a season or two of game experience in college. He was a 3 year, full time starter after transferring, in a power 5 conference and he's a 24 (25 in December) year old man that has plenty of experience playing QB on a football team.
