The only years where we had the personnel to advance (2013 and 2015), San Diego used our run scheme against us in 2013 and in 2015 Dalton wasn't playing.

When the QB turns it over 8 times, produces one TD, and a passer rating in the 50’s you’re playing from behind and losing time of possession. In other words, teams are running on you because you’re losing. While it’s not all on Andy, his pathetic play was a major reason they lost. The bottom line is Dalton is not elite. He’s never going to be a guy who can elevate average personnel groupings to excellence. If the Bengals don’t build an elite defense and a far better o line Dalton likely will never sniff a Playoff win, let alone a Super Bowl.
