I heard this on the radio the other night, it might not be exact but it's close.
The Bengals are 0-4 when Dalton has 50+ pass attempts. We're 2-10-1 when Dalton has 40+ pass attempts. We have to keep Dalton's attempts in the 25-35 range or we'll lose this game and continue to lose all season if we keep him in the 40 attempts and above area.
We can't go on getting 40 yards a game from the RB's, Miller will have a field day if we can't run !
0-3 on 50+ attempts
4-8-1 on 40+ attempts
I did a breakdown a couple years ago, and you're right, his best performance is when he throws between 30-35 times a game, statistically. Didn't break it down by wins.
EDIT: Weird splits, but anyway...
19 or < = 3-1
20-29 = 20-5
30-35 = 17-5
36-39 = 7-5
40-49 = 4-8-1
50+ = 0-3
51-27-1
