Sure, Dalton deserves his criticism for numerous plays he's had in the post season. But even with the game in hand, this is what happens.
^^This. I can only think of two times the Bengals defense has actually stopped a final drive this year. First was against the Chargers and the second was against the Steelers in Pittsburgh. That last stop in Pittsburgh required an incomplete pass when time expired.
They couldn't stop Palmer, Brock Osweiler three times, TJ Yates off the bench, EJ Manual before half, Nick Foles before half, Johnny Football before half in the first game, and probably others I can't think of.
When a stop is needed, this defense failed almost every time in 2015. And that's not on Dalton or McCarron.
