It still amazes me how these QBs **** the bed with these top 5 receivers.
Yet Flacco doesn't even have a top 20 guy and gets so much hate.
How can you have AJ Green 1 on 1 all game and be scared to throw to him? When is Dalton going to start getting the Flacco treatment?
Can you imagine how good our team would be if you had a guy on the outside teams actually had to gameplan around?

That 3rd down overthrow was just awful. AJ was wide open. Can you imagine the vitriol Joe would have received if he missed that pass? Cincy will always be a #6 seed type team at best with Dalton. Damn I was rooting hard for them like I do when they play the Steeelers, and they always let you down (other than the shocker two weeks ago)

It's amazing. They expect Joe to make chicken soup out of chicken ****. Where is our Roddy White, Andre Johnson, Megatron, AJ Green? Where is our coordinator that designs plays to get our best players 1 on 1? When your only real threat is a 5'7" running back, what can you do. Every top QB in the league has a receiver or tight end that is synonomous with him. Where is Joe's?

Dalton, Stafford & Ryan are the 3 QBs who benefit the most from the WRs they have.
They wouldn't put up the same sexy stats without having top 5 talent to throw to.

Even though we don't have any beasts at WR/TE, we have a whole bunch of 2nd tier talent. You absolutely can win with those types of WRs/TEs as long as you have the right scheme in place--one that plays to their respective strengths.
We haven't had that for 3 seasons now.
Hopefully, that's now changed.
The irony is that Cam with his preference for isolation routes and sending everybody deep constantly NEEDED a Megatron, AJ Green, VJax, Roddy White/Julio Jones, etc. type or a Whitten, Gronkowski, Graham...

A great WR helps, but a great QB can make his WR's better. Look at Rodgers in GB, Peyton in Denver, etc.
Never get in a fight with a pig; you both get muddy, and the pig likes it...

Dalton is ok, he can't be compared to flacco yet, he's not there yet. Flacco has done more with less talent and a shitty OC for years.
