That out of the way, a Gio fumble down inside the 10 yd line and AJ's drop of a TD didn't help. SD's defense was suppose to be horrific against the run and we couldn't run the ball and our D which could stop the run couldn't that day. What I am getting at is this, we lost out on 2 TDs and we could have just played smash mouth the 2nd half. It didn't workout that way, so we ended up playing catch up in the 2nd half and Dalton wasn't good.
I say except for the 2013 loss though because the Bengals had a 10-7 lead at halftime. Although it could have been more of a lead, Bengals were very much in it. But then Dalton had 3 consecutive turnovers in the second half as he spearheaded the spiral downward in that game. If there is one playoff loss to put on Dalton more than anyone else, it is that one. (key word there is more)
