In the 2nd 1/2 Luck had 4 TD's and no Ints  with 320 to make the game seem respectable.  Dalton ended the game with 90 less yards and 3 TD's no Ints he did rush for 1 also.  No doubt it was a good game for Dalton. However the Bengals never trailed and the game was never a contest because the Defense sealed the game in the first 1/2.

Thank you for making the point. Dalton shows up when the game is in hand. He is along for the ride. He was still out performed by Luck. In compassion Luck's team did not show up and Luck accounted for ALL of his teams 28 points and no turnovers.  BTW the Bengals hung 42 on the Colts that day. The rest of the O showed up...so not really the example that shows Dalton being the "reason" the team won.

Give me a break. Dalton played great in the Colts game in 2013. The defense had a good first half, but don't forget about their meltdown in the 2nd half allowing 28 points. Dalton had almost 300 yards and 3 TDs that game, and almost 70% completions, and a running TD. When the Colts started scoring all their points in the second half Dalton led the offense to score just as much as the Colts, so it wasn't just because the Bengals had a lead. Dalton made sure he didn't give up a point of that lead. Dalton scored the same amount of points as Luck that game. Keep trying to downplay Dalton. It's kinda funny.
