Not sure what your definition of "handily" is, but that 1st half lead was mostly gifts by our defense, because of SF ineptitude on offense.  Not at all by virtue of our overpowering offense.  Thankfully, the defense was able to hold off the Niners, after the Bengal offense blundered their way into letting SF close making things "interesting" down the stretch.

Oh the defense did show up, no doubt about it.  I'm not saying we are going to "Dilfer" our way to the Super Bowl, but I also realize that as long as you don't turn the ball over you have a good chance of winning in the NFL.  Let's not act like our defense never bailed out Andy, either.  I guess what it really comes down to is me not being as destroyed over the Dalton injury (assuming he doesn't play in the playoffs) because I'm stubborn enough to not be convinced that he's going to shake his playoff awfulness just because he's become a regular season god.

Do I think Dalton would have at least an average game in this year's playoffs?  Yes
Do I think McCarron would be better than Dalton?  No
Do I think our playoff offense can still contribute it's standard 6-10 points in the playoffs?  Yes
