Getting to 5 playoffs in a row really show that, sadly do to more than just Dalton we did not perform well. This team right now is as healthy with skilled players on. Offense since 2006 team and with Burrow playing at a high level plus a solid defense this might be the best chance of finally winning in playoffs. We will be favored which will be a change, I think we were only favored against Chargers in the 5 year run.
Marvin Lewis was 9-31 in prime-time (.225)
He was 6-19 (.240) with Dalton.
He was 3-12 (.200) with other QBs (mostly Palmer)
No one says Palmer caused us to lose in PT. Just Andy, even though Dalton was actually slightly better in PT than everyone else who played under Marv.
Marv was 0-7 in the playoffs.
He was 0-4 with Dalton.
He was 0-3 with other QBs.
24-40-197-1-2 (60.1 rating)
18-36-146-1-1 (58.3 rating)
23-41-212-1-1 (68.3 rating)
If I didn't tell anyone, most people would think these were Dalton playoff games. So why do people pin blame on Dalton for not doing what nobody else was able to do? Is it because he had more cracks at it?
It just doesn't make sense. Every speck of evidence points squarely at Marvin Lewis being the problem. Dalton just dealt with it longer than the others.
