And the defense only gave up 10 points. Teams coughed up 7.

I'm not knocking Dalton here, I'm just giving the credit to the defense.

I am pleasantly surprised however at how many 4th Q comebacks Dalton has had. I'm glad you pointed that out. That's a bonus for him that I didn't know or expect.

The role of punt coverage team, is to play defense.  The punt is a defensive play, so yeah that counts on the defense.

But anyway, the defensive unit made up for that by scoring two of their own TDs.  The offense for sure had their problems.  Two empty trips to the Red Zone in the 1st half, inexcusable.  Reality is, the Bengals should have walked all over Miami by a wide margin.  Be things how they were, I'll take the nice recovery and end result.
