January 16, 20179 yr Your last sentences are not really supporting Dalton much. Saying a qb had to go win games for their team. Dalton doesn't do that either. Not sure how anyone can say otherwise when his record against good teams, prime time games, playoff games speak for themselves. His numbers in those games also backs things up that he doesn't go out and win games either. Dalton and Smith are one in the same. You all act like Dalton takes chances. Look at his numbers in 2014 and this year in games Green doesnt play. Do you even remember in true deep passes Dalton threw the last 6 weeks this year or chances you say he took? What about 2014 when Green missed games? The only difference is Dalton has someone like Green to throw to. Without Green Dalton doesn't throw deep passes. Ive seen Dalton win a game for the Bengals before with his play. Granted it's against lesser competition at 1 o clock on a Sunday. But I've seen it from him. I have no idea if he will ever be capable of doing on the big stage. Currently all signs point to him not beings able to. But I would still take my chances with him over Alex Smith.
January 16, 20179 yr Why is Andy Dalton being discussed at all in a Steelers/Chiefs game thread??If you wait long enough it will circle around to Trump.
January 16, 20179 yr Harrison has that look on him like this is his last go round and he wants to go out on top. It will be interesting how the defense does once he does retire. Even though it looks like he could play a few more years if he truly wanted to. Fun fact - Harrison is only 1 year younger than Joey Porter.
January 16, 20179 yr Pittsburgh played great defensively and Bell had a huge game running. Kansas City will have to find another quarterback to get them past where they are now as a team. Smith can win games but he's not going to be one to get them or any other team to a Super Bowl.

Not sure how the debate on who the take even came up. My initial post even said they are similar in that no team is going all the way with either of them at qb. I basically put them both down. To be fair to Smith though, it's not even close to who performs better in big games. Going into last night Smith had 11 td passes and 1 interception, and a passer rating over 100 in the playoffs, and also had led his team to alot of points in games even in losses. While Dalton had 1 playoff td, and I don't think has scored more than 20 in a playoff game. The numbers aren't close actually. Perception is not always reality. With that said I wouldn't want either of them, because history shows they are not qbs who are going to lead your team all the way.

January 16, 20179 yr KC and Smith are a tough team their defense was beat up. With a good draft and their starting defense back they will be tough next year.
