I remember watching a pre-game "re-draft" after the 12th game or 3/4 point of the 2011 season . . . Cam Newton still went #1 and Dalton went #2 because he didn't look like a rookie. But apparently, people don't want to remember that when the entire team looked star struck and overmatched in a playoff game.
Now, the same people suddenly look at the roster and see problems and I laugh.
The QB play improved and they are 0-2-1. Like I said . . . QB wasn't the main problem and now it is the main problem for two different reasons. Those reasons are 1) hoping he stays healthy and 2) doesn't become gun shy just like almost every other young QB does when they play behind a shit line.
But, now we have a good QB to root for and unfortunately not much else.
I would take the rookie Dalton over last years Dalton anyday. Last year he just stared at the pass rushers.
