It extends to players on the team and those who left, etc. After the 2010 season it was clear Chad and TO (and probably Benson and Marvin) were going to be gone. That's ok, it was their fault, and Palmer played great with Simpson and Caldwell so that was encouraging. Then it turned out Benson and Marvin were staying and Palmer wanted out so Benson and Marvin were no longer part of the problem and it was all about Chad, TO, and Palmer running the team into the ground. People even accused Palmer of twisting Mikey's arm and getting TO here (I suppose he convinced Mikey that Bryant's knee was medically sound, as well) because he was the GM too I guess.
Either way, it's all about placing the blame on those who aren't staying. I assure you if Dalton refused to sign an extension and went to the Texans he would become darn near the one and only reason we lost 4 playoff games in a row. It's just human nature.
Wait....I thought it was ALREADY established that Dalton was the sole purpose of our playoff losses....
.....but seriously, I'd have been all for Harbaugh, Manning, Suh.....etc.
