When fans and media talk about Dallas Cowboys quarterback Joe Milton, the first thing they usually mention is the former Tennessee Vols standout's rocket arm. Milton, though, doesn't understand why everyone says he throws the ball so hard.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys knew they were getting a young backup quarterback that needed development when they acquired Joe Milton in a trade from the New England Patriots this offseason.

For the second straight preseason game, the former New England Patriots backup quarterback was a disappointment. This time, it was a 31-13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens where he completed 50% of his passes, threw a pick and was sacked for a safety.

The Cowboys have not been able to evaluate their down-roster weapons because of lackluster QB play from Joe Milton.

The Dallas Cowboys ’ 31-13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens at AT&T Stadium has put Brian Schottenheimer in quite a bind when it comes to quarterback Joe Milton.
