I've never routed against Dalton, but there have been times that I've been very disappointed. Thursday night's play was encouraging, and not just Dalton's. The whole team played like they wanted to win. Even when things were going against them they kept their heads in the game. That's some that was missing the last few years.

Brother, that's been missing A LOT during Marv's entire tenure.  I know QB gets most of the blame, but it really is ridiculous the amount 14 gets from the hometown fans.  For the record, I'm not saying that's been your stance at all.  As you noted, for once, with the lights on, the WHOLE DAMN TEAM showed up to play, and play ferociously.  That's very encouraging.  Your QB is not going to play lights out every single time you take the field.  You need to have the rest of the team be able to pick up the slack in those situations.  That has not been the case in Cincinnati.  Hopefully, this is a harbinger of things to come.  

If you'll look at Shake n Blake's signature, you'll see that "Prime Time Andy" hasn't really been a thing since the 2.0 Browns game.  Prime Time Merv has absolutely been a thing though.  Maybe it was shitty assistants this whole time......idk, but something feels different about this team.  Piano Paul's blocking scheme was 10 years outdated too, and very complex according to Lap during the pregame Thursday.
