Yeah I did. I’ve only drank one ipa so far too, so idk what’s wrong with me

and I meant Dalton too
This is simply not good enough,1-5 are merely warming up and should in no way compromise lucidity, stiffen that upper lip and cry havoc Sir, tap into that Nelsonian spirit and do Your duty.

Dalton is comparable to Dak, so what's the problem?

The people who think Andy Dalton is good enough are about to see what he's like without Zeke, Pollard and our top 3 wide receiver trio.

dak was in panic mode for half a season and half of another when Smith went down in the Atlanta game, but somehow he would have been better with backups playing is laughable. Dak holds on to the ball too long then goes into panic mode if he doesn't find his first go-to guy. Dalton played well and got the ball out way faster than dak has ever done.

That's the whole point about Dak though.. Others make him better too.

Dak & Dalton go as their team goes. They do not elevate the team.

The Dalton bashing on here is pretty pathetic really. People compare Dak Prescott over 4+ years from having a completely different offensive line to the 2nd and 3rd stringers Dalton had to contend with. We all remember the Falcons and Broncos game from years past when the offensive line wasn't 100% healthy and how Prescott struggled. Mahomes struggled in the Superbowl having cardboard as his offensive line. At times the MVP of last season Rodgers struggled vs Tampa Bay without his All Pro left tackle. People need a reality check if they think the offensive line doesn't really matter.

That Arizona Cardinal game.. People really exposed themselves on here when they were blaming Dalton. The team was in chaos and it had nothing to do with him.

We couldn't block.

We couldn't catch.

Zeke couldn't hold on to the ball.

Dalton had good numbers after this return from injury. He's a legitimate starter, and only costs 10mil. The Bears got a good deal.

People are so short sighted when it comes to cap. Dalton is a decent starter and frees up cap to improve the rest of the team.
This would be a good point if Dalton was actually a legitimate starter, $10m was a good deal, they weren't also paying Foles ~$7m, and they didn't release Fuller to save almost the exact amount they're paying Dalton.

Dalton sucks and they aren't improving anything.

It does make me laugh at how Dalton had to play with the third string offensive line and then Lamb started to drop TD catches that he would normally make in his sleep. Weird.

Completely. Dalton was just collateral damage.

that's why you don't get your fan base's hopes up about getting a premier QB ...

Can you honestly blame them, after seeing the QB1 post?
