they have a good defense, you make it sound like they are the 2000 Ravens. Chiefs would put up 27+ on them. Dalton put up absolutely nothing. They are superbowl contenders because of Andrew luck, not their D

I'm not making it sound like anything. I wrote what I wrote and you made your own assumptions from there.
Of course the heart and soul of the team is Luck. But they've had him for 2 seasons prior to this one and were never considered legit Super Bowl contenders. Now they are. Why? Because their defense is playing extremely ****ing well. Do you understand?

Yeah, not the same defense.
They lost their stud pass rusher that amassed 19.5 sacks last year.
So to suggest that their middling defense is somehow better now? Get real.
I don't condemn Dalton for one game... but making excuses like this for him is ironic and weak at best. Other than Corey Redding and CB Davis, that Colts defense has nothing for offenses to fear.
Dalton doesn't just get production out of Green. You are of course right about that. Thing is.. just having a talent like Green on the field opens up everyone else... so directly or indirectly... Green is a huge presence for Cincy.

To act like a defense that is missing a player can't be somehow different and/or play better? Get real.
Shit changes from year to year..
Our defense looks better while missing 4 starters.
The Seahawks defense looks worse with basically the exact same squad as last year.
The Saints added Jairus Byrd and a healthy Vaccaro and they look like ass compared to last year.
The Lions didn't add anyone of note and they're playing like one of the best in the league. Last year they were horrible.

What's one season? Dalton's been putting up pretty good numbers in the regular season for quite some time.
