While I doubt you will find many if any that refute that, there were plenty of other contributing factors to his poor season. By no means is that meant to defend him or absolve him of his issues, poor play, mistakes, or anything like that. Dalton is still a good QB. We should be able to find a trade partner and gain an additional draft pick while dumping his salary.
I understand that a lot of people can only focus on anything negative that relates to Dalton. I also understand that if you don't spew hate in his direction at every given opportunity, then you get labeled one of these ridiculous Ganger, Army, or whatever other childish name that would be more expected on a playground than adult conversation.
Whether or not he's an upgrade Year 1, Burrow could and should be an upgrade overall. It is time to grab our QB of the future and move forward in that direction. Burrow could be special and you just don't pass on that. However, for all of the good and the hope that Burrow brings doesn't mean everyone has to shit on Dalton. Whether people like it or not, he was a good QB. He did a lot of good for the team and he was a big part of helping turn this franchise into something better than a punchline. I understand this season was horrible and Dalton played his part in that, but there's no reason to throw out everything positive he's done for the team just because he's on his way out.
