My point all along has been that the Bengals were superior during the regular season with Dalton...10-2 with him, 2-3, 1-0 as starter against the Steelers, 0-2 without him, yet one play away from winning the playoff game.  

When I add everything up I still see the Bengals had the better season and would put them on paper ahead of Steelers but really very little difference overall between the two teams coming into the season, though with Eifert maybe out in being of year, I would give the Steelers the edge now coming into the season if he is expected out for the first few games. 

No, I'm saying a fanbase needs to stop using injuries as an excuse if they tell other fanbases not to use injuries.

This thread has nothing to do with the Ravens. It's why are the Steelers ranked ahead of the Bengals. The argument then was presented that the Bengals lost two games against them because of Dalton being injured.
