Our playoff woes are a team issue. He is hardly the only reason we've gone 0-5 these last five years. I mean hell, he didn't even play this last game, and he had absolutely no one to throw to the year before. So the last two years especially can't be held against him.
I'm sorry, but I'm not going to get bent out of shape over a QB going 0-4 in the playoffs to start his career. How did Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, and Drew Brees fair in that regard?
Peyton is probably the only good example of that bunch. Rodgers and Brees got off to hot starts in the playoffs, I believe.
Now guys like Matt Ryan, Andrew Luck, Flacco, Peyton, Romo, Palmer, etc? Not so much.
You also have to factor in the coach that Dalton plays for and how no one on offense has ever shown up, save for 1-2 examples from 7 playoff games.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
