Rank Dalton Among All QB's

Point is, Dalton not getting attention from the national media has nothing to do with his draft position or expectations coming into the league, and everything to do with his abysmal record in the playoffs and on the big stage in primetime  (for the most part). 

The prime time argument is old and tired...just look at Shake's signature.  

I completely agree about the playoff losses, but it is really just one that haunts me.  The San Diego game.  Gio's fumble.  A defense that was a sieve against the run.  Two INTs and a fumble by Andy.  That was "the one that got away".  

Even though the manner in which the 2015 game ended was the stuff of nightmares, I didn't see the team going far with McCarron anyway.  

The first two years, the team was just getting their feet wet and getting some experience and the Colts game was a MASH unit on the field due to injuries.  

That SD game, though....ugh.  So, in a nutshell, Dalton has very few supporters because of that one loss.  The history of the team long before him and the manner in which they lost in 15 is all placed on Dalton's shoulders because they look at him as though he CAN'T win the playoff game(s).  That is dead wrong.  He will end the criticism this year.
