Once Dalton got hurt, I slipped back to my pessimistic ways. However, McCarron does look capable of holding the fort down until Dalton comes back. I'm coming back to the positive side. I think we have the talent to beat anyone in the league; it's just the coaching I worry about. Until we actually win a playoff game with Marvin, I will always be skeptical of his ability to get us to the top.
I do think thought that this might be the time.
If there is still a fort left next week, and Dalton can play, I think we can win the AFC Championship and have a shot at the big game. But I believe, due to circumstances, this will be the most difficult game for us on Saturday. I'd rather play New England w/ AD (and I'd be very optimistic about it), than Pitt w/o AD.
