Come playoffs the defense couldn't tackle, the receivers couldn't catch, the RBs couldn't hold onto the ball. It was a full and complete team effort (or lack thereof).

Palmer went 0-2 but the first was the injury in '05 and then the second was when we went run heavy in '09. The second of which, I blame on Lewis and I blame not being able to get to the playoffs all the other years on him.

Dalton not being able to win a playoff game is on Dalton, IMCO, because, while Lewis wasn't a good coach, Dalton choked. He had completion percentages of 64.3, 46.7, 56.9, and 51.4 with 6 interceptions and only one touchdown, then yardages of 257, 127, 334, and 155.

Lewis was a bad coach, but Dalton definitely shit the bed in the playoffs too badly to blame on Lewis.
