Either way, this performance wasn't "about the same" as Finley's game against Pittsburgh. How many scoring drives did Finley lead? With almost double the help from his run game? Didn't he have like 9 completions?
I remember someone on here who "gushed" about McCarron's playoff game where he had a 68 rating. The defense needed a pretty epic performance to keep us in that one, but I don't remember that person mentioning defense. Meanwhile, Dalton has a game far better than that one (and actually wins), and didn't even need the epic defensive performance, as he led us to 22 points without a run game. Now we're raving about the defense and downplaying the QB's impact?
20 points actually, the defense had a safety. And I’d say he did need them considering how the Jets has been playing coming into that game. They had been scoring 30+ a game.
