It is an entire team effort...Whether Dalton played poorly or not does not mean that the game should be lost.....

I agree with most of what you said, FWIW, especially about the coaching staff. Dalton's best game was easily the second Houston game. The problem with hiding the QB and not asking him to carry the team is that everyone you play on the Playoffs is going to be good. As such, the QB has to show up and play. Andy can be hidden in The game plan against the Browns and Bucs of the world, but against legitimate Super Bowl contenders? He has to show up and show out, and he also plays the single most important position in football. Entering his 5th NFL season as starter, isn't it reasonable to expect more out of the starting QB than hiding him in the gameplay?
