Can Andy and the Bengals finally win a playoff game?

Boomer's postseason numbers in '88 were much worse than Dalton's, yet many people claim one of the reasons Boomer is better is his ability to win playoff games.

I never hear anyone claiming that Boomer sucked and we won in spite of him.

Boomer was 3-2 in the playoffs, 3 passing TDs and 3 INTs. We tended to run a lot in those games and scored more rushing TDs than passing TDs. With Woods and Wilson near the goal line, why would you throw?

It's really hard to compare QBs from different eras because of all the rules changes.

Kenny Anderson lead the league in passing yards in 1974 with only 2,667 yards and in 1975 with 3,169.

In 1988, Easiason's All-Pro year, he threw for 3,572 yards.

Today 5,000 yards happens almost every year.

But we have Marvin Lewis as coach and he's no Sam Wyche. The current team just deflates when something goes wrong. It's not just Dalton who deflates, but the whole team, defense, offense and coaching staff.
