End of the "Dalton Scale"?

There's tons of Super Bowl winning QB's who didn't win a playoff game their first four years, however.  Drew Brees, Phil Simms, and Steve Young come to mind.

Flacco isn't being excluded. He's the closest comparison. Started from the beginning, played very poorly in his first several tries in the playoffs. 

I'm looking for someone other than Flacco. People keep making excuses but the fact remains; no matter the circumstances, Dalton plays poorly in the playoffs. 

You can find plenty of QBs that played well early in their playoff careers and you can find plenty of QBs that played poorly early in their playoff careers. It's very difficult to find a QB who played well in the beginning of their careers (like Dalton has in the regular season) and stunk it up, consistently, in the playoffs. And it's seems to be pretty much impossible to find a QB who played, consistently, poorly early in their playoff careers and went on to right the ship and do well in the playoffs later in their career. Other than Flacco.
