That's like saying the Bengals wasted 16 years with Marvin Lewis as the HC. Marvin, one of the highest winning percentages of Bengals coaches, brought us out of the NFL doldrums took us to multiple playoff appearances with multiple QBs including the supposedly crappy Dalton (how, btw, a head coach can be so great as to take a team to the playoffs with a "trash" QB yet not even win 1 playoff game even with a not-trash QB, I don't know).

Now, sure, Marvin should've been replaced sooner than he was, but Marvin, for most of his time here was a good HC. Just like Dalton, for most of his time here, was a slightly above average QB. 

Dalton's career 87.1 QB rating ranks him 39th amongst ALL NFL QBs in history (that have at least 1500 passing attempts)

39th out of almost 250 QBs. I’d say above average, when everything is taken into account, aka eyeball test in prime time. Hell, he’s ranked ahead of some HOF QBs on that list.
