It's called putting the ball where only your receiver can get it, and allowing them to make a play. What about Chad, was he bailing Palmer out along the sidelines?
What about the playoffs when AJ dropped a wide open TD, disappeared in Houston? I don't think a lot of you watch other games.
Just like Sunday. Yes, 14 missed Eifert in the end zone. That's what's focused on. Not Auden Tate dropping a wide open TD, not Eifert dropping one earlier right in his hands, not Eifert dropping a TD Monday night....JUST the missed TD. I watched a couple of those missed TDs over the last two weeks in other games. The difference? Nine times out of ten, when the ball was there in those games, players stepped up. That's where people who just wanna ***** lose their credibility. They harp on one single negative play, and act like the rest of the game has no bearing. Just like Seattle. The fumble is harped on religiously, hardly a mention of Bullock's missed chip shot.
Look at the Lions/Chiefs game last week. Do you think this team would be able to overcome all of those turnovers? If you're REALLY objective, you know the answer.
Fact is, if we put a spy on Murray Sunday, we probably win that game with the way the team played in the 2nd half.
Dalton is a QB, sorry so many of you feel he gets an unfair amount of the blame, but that’s just how it goes. Most important position and all...
If he didn’t want that kind of pressure placed on him, he should have stayed in Texas and organized church picnics or something less demanding.
As for the bold, that’s laughable. He’s been overthrowing his WRs his entire career. Often times getting them nearly killed. It has nothing to do with Dalton putting the ball where only his WR can get it, and everything to do with him making inaccurate/poor throws.
And there’s a big difference between Palmer threading a ball into a tight spot on the sidelines, and Dalton throwing a pass too high. Palmer had a great deep ball, and could actually hit Chad in stride. Dalton is really only effective using the middle of the field most of the time. One of his many shortcomings.
