I just think it's difficult for teams to admit a mistake. Especially one as major as this one. And, of course, you have to consider the alternative ... who is their backup QB? I don't even know.
Of course, Baker may turn it around. Their remaining schedule is phenomenally easy. They play a bunch of replacement QBs and some horrific defenses that their run game should dominate.
The Chute Pickles' season may hinge on the donk game. We'll see ...

Dalton is over 30 years old with a ton of experience. They know exactly what he is at this point. Baker is still a young QB that needs more experience. We will see how it shakes out the next few years.
