How about AJ McCarron

2)AJM is a equivalent player at the QB position as AD. You know this because Andy most ardent supporters are now saying "yea but Andy has 80 starts" so he is better. Lol.

1) Andy actually DID put his team in position to win ONE of the playoff games. IIRC, it was the 2nd PO game against the Texans, late in the 4th QTR, Dalton throws a pass in the end zone to AJ Green that is JUUUUUUUUUUUUUUST a bit out of reach. Had Green caught that, the game would've been tied and the extra point would have put them ahead. 

Yeah, it was the only time in 4 playoff games, but it does show that Dalton most likely CAN do it.

2) AJM may be a similar STYLE of QB, but he is nowhere NEAR the QB that AD is. And it's NOT because Andy has more starts. Yes, Andy has more experience, but Andy can actually READ a defense - his pre-snap defensive reading is near the tops in the league; he can audible to different plays; he can go through progressions (when he has enough time); and he is the undisputed leader of this team. About the only thing AJM seems to be better at is pocket awareness (though Dalton's this year has been almost phenomenal).

Let's not forget that Dalton had the highest QB rating in the AFC and 2nd highest in the NFL.

But, please. continue with this fantasy that somehow a guy who could barely throw for more than 200 yards in a game is on par with the 2nd ranked QB in the league.
