    The defense has been getting blown off the ball all day long.

    And Dalton is being given absolutely NO TIME to throw.

    Andy Dalton is the worst quarterback in the playoffs. I was hoping our weapons could let it get by. It didn't.

    Oh come on, you cannot possibly blame this on Dalton. He doesn't have time to sneeze back there.

    The Bengal's O-line is just not giving Dalton much protection/time. He's been under a lot of pressure. And from pressure comes bad decision-making.

    They are definitely getting beat up front, but those are two terrible turnovers by Dalton.

    I can blame two turnovers on him. He fumbled a play where no one touched him. Then he threw into double coverage for an easy pick. Yes, he had no time to throw it, but throw it out of bounds or at someones feet. Both of those are on him.

    You're right, I guess he should just hold on to the ball and take a sack every play.

    The fumble wasn't a terrible turnover. He was being aggressive trying to get a first down for his team. It happens.

    Nevermind. I shouldn't be surprised. People have been irrational in pinning everything on Dalton all year long despite his success. Not sure why I should expect any differently now.

    Blindly throwing the ball is better than taking a sack? You're being irrational in your defense of Dalton now.

    Gotta get points on this drive and protect dalton. Not sure what happened to our line at halftime. Getting the ball to our best player wouldn't hurt

    How many interceptions did he have this year? I am not being irrational by saying he is the worst quarterback in the playoffs. Who is he better than?

    QB's get the majority of credit for wins and get hit hard after a loss. Dalton wears this L. Time to start looking for a new QB 0-3 in the playoffs with a loss at home.
    If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.

    Why was he running on the fumble play? Because he got flushed from the pocket. He hasn't had much of a pocket to pass from all second half and the penetration by the D is taking away the screen pass. The San Diego D made some adjustments at the half and the Bengals' O line has yet to handle it. Meanwhile, the vaunted front 7 of the Bengals' D isn't doing much. If they're going to pull of a win, the play on the lines needs to pick up their game.
