WTS, this has gone beyond silly. I retract everything I said. A back up QB did not give us the best performance and get us closer to winning a playoff game in 1/4 century. I'll just ignore the actual facts as well and try to fit in.
Because:
Quote:One defense allowed 27 points and forced no turnovers, while the other allowed 18 points and forced 2 turnovers?
If we were still within one score late (thanks to the defense), maybe Dalton looks like an (almost - not quite) hero?
Instead, Andy's defense allowed 27 and we were too far away for a comeback. Maybe if his defense held the opponent to 18 and gave him a couple short fields (via turnovers), that game would've looked different. This goes vice versa. If the defense had allowed 27 and didn't provide short fields to McCarron, is he the (almost - not quite) hero?
Keep in mind, the passer ratings were nearly identical, and McCarron had 2 turnovers himself.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
